01Walk the house together
We start at your kitchen table, not in a listing portal. I walk the property, ask what your timeline actually is, and note what buyers will see — the good and the fixable.
Torin Foley · REALTOR® · Greenville & Spartanburg
Selling a home is a series of decisions. Make them with the full picture.
I help Upstate homeowners sell with a process you can actually inspect — comparable sales you can question, a pricing strategy with the reasoning shown, and straight answers at every step.
No pressure. No scripts. A clear look at your options first.
The approach
The Upstate is full of people who work from data. Your agent should too.
Greenville and Spartanburg are engineering towns — BMW, Michelin, GE. My clients tend to ask good questions, and they deserve better than "trust me, the market is hot."
So the work is transparent by design: the comparable sales behind your price — a band you can interrogate, not a guess — the expected return behind each repair, the trade-offs behind every offer. Every recommendation comes with the because, and every decision is framed around your net, not just the list price.
About TorinThe process
Five deliberate steps, explained before we start.
02Price from the data
I build a comparable-sales analysis you can interrogate: which sales I used, which I threw out, and why. You see the pricing band and the reasoning before we pick a number.
03Prepare only what pays
Not every repair returns its cost. We rank prep work by expected return, do what moves the number, and skip what does not.
Working with Torin
What you can hold me to.
A listing agreement is a working relationship. These are its terms in plain language — the same ones whether your home is a starter ranch or on the water.
- Straight answers
If your house will not appraise at the number you want, I will say so — with the comps that show why. You will never get a flattering price just to win a listing.
- The reasoning, always
Every recommendation comes with the "because." Pricing, prep, offer response — you see the inputs, not just the conclusion.
- Your decision, your pace
My job is to give you the clearest possible picture. Whether and when to sell is yours. No countdown clocks, no pressure scripts.
- One point of contact
You hired a person, not a call center. Questions go to me and get answered by me — usually the same day.

Client stories
In their words.
Real conversations. Real results. Hear from homeowners who trusted Torin to get it done right.
Torin priced our house with a spreadsheet of comps he walked us through line by line. As two engineers, that was exactly the conversation we wanted — and we went under contract the first weekend.
Our listing had expired with another agent and we were done with the whole thing. Torin showed us what had gone wrong — pricing and photos, mostly — fixed both, and had it sold in three weeks.
He told us not to renovate the kitchen. Said we would not get the money back and the comps proved it. Who talks themselves out of a higher price like that? Someone you can trust, it turns out.

Common questions
Asked early, answered plainly.
Straight answers about pricing, process, FSBO, expired listings, and what working together actually looks like.
Still have a question?Do I have to list with you after we talk?
No. The first conversation is a clear look at your options — comps, timeline, and what the data suggests. Whether and when to sell stays yours. No countdown clocks, no pressure to sign.
How do you decide what my house should list for?
From comparable sales you can interrogate, not a gut number. I show which sales I used, which I threw out, and why — so you see the pricing band and the reasoning before we pick a number.
Should I renovate before listing?
Only when the expected return justifies it. We rank prep by what moves the net, do what pays, and skip what does not. I would rather talk myself out of a kitchen remodel than spend your money on work that does not show up at closing.
What if my listing already expired unsold?
Most expired listings fail for identifiable reasons — price, photos, or launch — not “the market.” I start with a no-obligation post-mortem of what went wrong, then a plan to relaunch only if the diagnosis supports it.
I was thinking of selling on my own. Will you still talk to me?
Yes. Questioning a commission is the right instinct. We can walk through what FSBO saves, what it usually costs in price and reach, and whether an agent would actually earn the difference on your house — with no lecture and no obligation to list.
Where do you work, and who do I deal with day to day?
Greenville and Spartanburg counties and nearby Upstate towns — Greer, Simpsonville, Duncan, Boiling Springs, Five Forks, Taylors, and similar. I work with Quartermaster Properties, but when you call, you get me. One point of contact, usually same-day answers.
