July 30, 2026 | Discussing Upcoming Real Estate Opportunities in Quogue

The Hamptons can feel like two summers at once: the one you planned for, and the one that’s already sprinting toward August. This week, we are joined by the Julie Crowley Team and to break down what’s happening right now across the Hamptons real estate market, from new listings and “coming soon” opportunities to the weekly contract numbers that show just how fast properly priced homes can move.

We spotlight a standout East Quogue property at 9 Walker Court, a newer home that checks the lifestyle boxes buyers keep asking for: radiant heat, smart features, a pool, open-concept living, and even bay access via an easement down to the creek. We also talk about the East Quogue and Quogue “brand” as a quieter, easier alternative that still keeps you close to beaches, marinas, village shopping, and the Jitney. If you’ve ever driven past an exit because it didn’t say “Hamptons,” this part is for you.

Then we get concrete with market data and strategy. This week shows 31 contracts from Westhampton to Montauk and roughly $167M in dollar volume, with new listings and in-contract activity keeping overall inventory tight. That tightness doesn’t give sellers a free pass to overprice, though. We explain why today’s comp-savvy buyers often wait for the price to land in the right zone, and how too much time spent on the market can create the wrong story even when the house is great. We also connect the dots between a hot rental season and the steady pipeline of renters who decide it’s time to buy.

We wrap with an East End weekend guide, including Stone Creek Inn’s anniversary and Monday special, DJ nights at The Clubhouse, East Hampton Library Author’s Night, Montauk options, and the local fire department carnival.

July 23, 2026 | Discussing Hero Volley and Montauk Real Estate

We’re joined by a packed group, including Josh Brussel and the Jennifer Wilson Team, to preview Hero Valley’s Montauk beach volleyball week, bringing Olympic and pro athletes to town with free public events, music, food, and an up-close chance to meet the players.

We dig into the mission behind it: raising money for East Hampton’s Junior Lifeguard program and supporting the next generation of strong ocean swimmers. Josh also breaks down the clinics, the welcome party, and the Pro-Am tournament format, where locals, lifeguards, and visiting talent share the sand.

Then we switch gears to the Hamptons Real Estate Market Report data for the week of July 14, 2026. We spotlight a Montauk opportunity at 64 Fairview Avenue with a price reduction to $1,495,000, discuss what “entry level” really means in Montauk, and share a weekly market snapshot from Westhampton to Montauk including new listings, homes in contract, dollar volume, and why the $1M to $2M band stays so competitive.
