Real estate isn’t just comps and contracts — it’s how a home feels.

In this episode, Tabetha Klein and Greer Creech dig into the intersection of Wilmington, NC real estate and interior design, with practical, value-driven renovation ideas that can make a big difference (without stripping a home of its character). Greer also shares the behind-the-scenes story of designing The Bend, a community hub in Wilmington, and what it takes to create spaces people genuinely want to gather in.
