By Allison Cobb, The Cobb Group | Brokered by eXp Luxury Realty

Pumpkin Patches, Pumpkin Pie & Perfect Homes: Fall in Bluffton & Hilton Head

The season of pumpkins is officially here! Whether you call it Fall or Autumn, love spooky Halloween vibes, or just want an excuse for a slice of spicy pumpkin pie, there’s no denying that pumpkins set the tone this time of year. Some of us are die-hard Pumpkin Spice Latte (PSL) fans, while others are happy to keep it simple with pumpkin bread. I’ll admit—I used to be pumpkin-obsessed but these days I keep it classic: give me a good spicy pie and I’m happy!

The Sweet Spot Is Now: Why Waiting for Interest Rates to Drop Could Cost You Your Dream Home

By Allison Cobb, The Cobb Group | Brokered by eXp Luxury Realty

Here’s the thing about real estate: it’s a bit like catching a wave. If you wait until everyone else sees it coming, you’re already too late.

I was reminded of this just yesterday while out showing homes with buyers here in Bluffton, SC. They were lovely—smart, thoughtful, and…just a little heartbroken.

Two years ago, they were looking at homes in Heritage Lakes with a budget around $600,000. Back then, options were plentiful. Today, that same community has homes selling in the high $700s and $800s. Same houses, just with steeper price tags.

The wife? She gets it.
The husband? He’s…

If I Were a Seller in Today’s Market—The 5 Steps to Sell Your Home Faster & Smarter in Bluffton and Hilton Head Island

By Allison Cobb, The Cobb Group | Brokered by eXp Luxury Realty

 

Selling a home today is both an art and a strategy. If I were a seller in this market, I’d approach it with precision—a smart balance of pricing, presentation, promotion, and adaptability. Here’s how I’d do it:

1. Price It Right from Day One

Overpricing is one of the biggest mistakes a seller can make. Instead of “testing the market,” I’d study comparable sales from the past 60–90 days and price competitively from the start. A well-priced home creates urgency and often sparks multiple offers.

2. Focus on Presentation & Curb Appeal

Buyers make…
