Chats and Greene County Real Estate Update w/ Tom Willett (Greeneville & Co.) | Hot Rods & Hijinks

At LilyJack Customs in downtown Greeneville, the Hot Rods & Hijinks podcast welcomes Tom Willett of TRC Logistics and Greeneville & Co. Realty to talk about growing up across Greene County and how that local knowledge helps in real estate. Willett explains why Chuckey is currently the county’s most desirable area, discusses land and home pricing differences by location, and shares market numbers showing active listings are flat year-over-year while land listings are down. He describes his approach to pricing, flipping vs. rehabbing and renting, FHA anti-flip rules, and how barndominiums and newer manufactured homes compare to stick-built houses. The group also discusses out-of-town buyers (many from Florida), local growth, zoning and development challenges, affordable housing, tiny homes/containers, and frustrations with Zillow estimates and panhandling.
