Roni:                Hello, friends. Happy Friday.

Allison:             Happy Friday.

Kimmy:             Happy Friday.

Roni:                Look, I've got lovely ladies today. Kimmy and Allison are here to join me and so I told them about four minutes ago that we were going to be playing this game. Y'all ready?

Allison:             Oh, we're ready. You better watch out.

Roni:                They're so competitive. So on Monday, I had them do this crossword puzzle. I made a team crossword puzzle to see how much they knew and they were intense... I finally had to call it. I was like, "Ladies, we got to stop this." It was fun though. Y'all like games?

Allison:             Oh yeah.

Kimmy:             Yeah.

Roni:                You feel like you know the market?

Allison:             Oh yeah.

Roni:                Alrighty. All right then. Game on. Whoever snatches the highlighter first will get to answer the question first, and then we'll go to the next one. And I'm going to spit these out, so you have to be quick. All right?

Allison:             All right.

Roni:                Did Feds raise the rates this week?

Allison:             Yes.

Kimmy:             Yes.

Roni:                You can't answer this question. Kimmy, what did you say? Kimmy?

Kimmy:             Yes.

Roni:                Yes, they did raise the rates by three quarters of another point, and I don't think they're finished yet. So we are climbing guys. What is driving inflation?

Allison:             Consumer spending.

Roni:                Consumer spending. There you go. Correct. Consumer spending is. All right. Number of homes that went under contract this week.

Allison:             223.

Roni:                Boom. All right. Is this number up or down from last week?

Kimmy:             Down.

Roni:                Down. Brownie points if you can tell me what the number was last week?

Kimmy:             Don't know.

Roni:                237, so we are down from last week. How many short sales foreclosures was this week?

Allison:             One.

Roni:                One. What's the average?

Allison:             12%.

Roni:                How many foreclosures to short sales do we usually have at any given week? Never more than...

Kimmy:             Two.

Roni:                Never more than two. Our market sees no more than two foreclosures to short sales at any given week. All right. Single family home... Blah, blah, blah.

                        Single family home median price for this week?

Kimmy:             395.

Roni:                395. Good job, Kimmy. How many 1 million plus properties sold this week?

Allison:             Is it 12?

Roni:                It is not 12. Kimmy, 1 million plus.

Kimmy:             [inaudible]. Eight.

Roni:                17.

Kimmy:             17.

Allison:             17. If we added. If we added, we'd be close.

Roni:                Good teamwork, We collaborate on many things. All right. How many homes has our team closed year to date?

Allison:             Go ahead.

Kimmy:             73?

Roni:                Oh my gosh. So close. It's actually 71. We have a lot that is still pending. We have lot still pending, but we have hit 71 sales.... Or closings I should say year to date. So what position MLS is our team for production year to date out of all 8,000 agents-

Allison:             Was that in the note?

Roni:                That is not in the note. But I have told y'all this, at least I thought I did. All 8,000 agents in MLS with all the production, how does our team rank?

Kimmy:             High? Very high.

Roni:                Very high.

Allison:             19.

Roni:                19. Yes. Good job, ladies. Mic drop. These ladies are awesome. And our team is 19 in MLS for production. And that is number of sides that depends on the number of sides. It's how we've calculated that. So fantastic. I mean, I could not be more proud to lead this team and to be a part of what we do every day for our clients.

                        And the reviews speak volumes. So if you go to Google to SC Real Estate Chick, you'll see lots of people's reviews. Zillow is always a popular one. So we have a lot of people that comment on Zillow about our team. So kudos to both of you ladies.

Kimmy:             Thank you.

Roni:                And I can't wait to see what y'all have in store for the rest of the week. And we're goal setting, of course for next year. So lots of great things are happening not only within our team, but really in our market and as much as, yes, our market is shifting and that's the conversation that we continue to have, is it stopping? No, it is not stopping. There's still buyers buying. Just ratified two deals yesterday. So got two buyers under contract. One is an investor, which I love when I get to work with investors because they have... It's, it is an exciting business, quite frankly. It's really exciting when an investor is looking at the next opportunity. It kind of keeps me on my toes.

                        And so anyways, we just put one under contract again, another very old home. And if you watch me on social media, you'll see some of my posts this past week of different things that I find in these old properties around town. And so it's fun.

Kimmy:             I know I love walking through an antique story. So even just a home downtown, seeing all the unique features. It's fun. It's really fun.

Roni:                It is fun. You never know. And here's the interesting thing too, is there's always a story behind these houses and it gets emotional y'all. I mean, there was one of the houses that I went into this week, not only did I meet the son that was raised in this property grown son that was raised in this property, but then I went in and in one of the door frames how you calculate the growth chart. I mean, we're talking way back and we're talking a couple of generations, were on that growth chart. So we're going to actually take that board out of the kitchen and give that back to the family at closing because-

Kimmy:             That is so awesome.

Roni:                It is. And it's emotional. You get into these situations and you meet families and just see the houses that every house has a story. That's what I love. That's the passion that's behind what we do every day.

Allison:             Absolutely. Absolutely.

Roni:                Congratulations. I'm not sure who was a actual winner.

Allison:             I think it was me.

Kimmy:             It was me.

Roni:                You're both winners. And before that, my favorite, Coastal Coffee.

Kimmy:             Oh, thank you.

Roni:                Take a little pick me up for the weekend. Some fresh roasted coffee from our friends over at Coastal Coffee Roasters.

Allison:             Thanks so much.
