    May 14, 2026 - Discussing California Dreamin' in the Hamptons with Drew Green

    A spring that wouldn’t cooperate is finally giving way to the Hamptons season, and you can feel the shift in real time: more cars heading east, more open houses, and a lot more inventory hitting the market before Memorial Day weekend. We break down what that late start means for buyers and sellers right now, and how a few sunny weekends can change the pace of deals across the East End.

    We spotlight a head-turning Southampton waterfront listing at 24 Aqua Drive, perched above Shinnecock Bay with sweeping views, a waterside pool, and a boat lift that makes ocean access feel effortless. Then we switch gears to 72 Bay Avenue West in Hampton Bays, a property with subdivision potential that speaks to investors, builders, and anyone thinking about long-term value in Hamptons real estate.

    Weekly Hamptons Real Estate Market Data: 26 listings in contract, a major burst of 50 new listings in one week, and inventory climbing to 1,752 total listings.

    We wrap with a local events roundup, including a wildlife rescue pickleball tournament, sip-and-paint at the Baker House, Wave Wellness, and the return of the free coffee trucks at open houses.

    Discussing the Importance of Maintaining Relationships

    The Hamptons can feel like a world-famous destination, but the way business works out here is pure small town: everyone’s connected, word travels fast, and your reputation is the real asset you can’t afford to gamble with. We start with a story about losing a listing, staying respectful anyway, and watching the relationship come back around, a reminder that “don’t burn bridges” isn’t just good manners, it’s smart real estate strategy.

    Then we get into the fun part: new construction and standout listings that are ready for summer. We spotlight a Southampton Village home at 109 David Whites Lane that’s beautifully built, walkable to the village, and somehow fits seven ensuite bedrooms into 4,200 square feet, plus entertaining-friendly outdoor spaces. We also run through multiple turnkey builds in Bridgehampton and Southampton, packed with the amenities buyers keep asking for right now: gunite pools, outdoor kitchens, theaters, saunas, cold plunges, and furnished options that make moving in feel effortless.

    To ground it all, we share this week’s Hamptons real estate market numbers including deals in contract, dollar volume, and the steady flow of new inventory as Memorial Day approaches. And because the East End isn’t only about houses, we wrap with Mother’s Day weekend restaurant specials and events across Montauk, Shelter Island, and Sag Harbor.

    April 30, 2026 - Discussing Should You Buy or Should You Rent in the Hamptons

    A $100,000 summer rental can disappear in six weeks, but that same $100,000 can also change what you can afford forever. We dig into the Hamptons buy vs rent decision the way real clients actually face it: comparing a home for sale against a home for rent, weighing lifestyle against long-term wealth, and asking the uncomfortable question of how much you need to use a place for ownership to make sense.

    We also talk about what makes the Hamptons unique: every town and pocket lives differently. Do you want beach access, village energy, bay sunsets, or quiet woods? Renting can be a smart “test drive” if you are unsure, but buying starts to look like a slam dunk when you know your spot and plan to hold for years. One of our favorite frames is the fixed-rate mortgage “time travel” effect: locking a key cost while rents and everyday expenses rise, turning today’s payment into tomorrow’s bargain.

    Then we shift to the market and what’s happening now. We spotlight a featured listing at 578 Stephen Hands Path with both sale and summer rental options, share this week’s Hamptons stats on deals in contract, dollar volume, new listings, and inventory, and close with weekend picks from a psychic medium to live comedy, spring markets, a museum opening, and Long Island Restaurant Week. If this helped you think clearer about buying, renting, or timing your move, subscribe, share this with a friend debating the Hamptons, and leave us a review. What’s your biggest hang-up: price, location, or how often you’d really use the house?
