Straight Answers

Frequently asked questions

What is the Jim G Guarantee?
The Jim G Guarantee is simple: your home sold, or we buy it. If your home does not sell within the agreed terms, Griffin Home Group will buy it, so you are never stuck. It removes the risk of listing.
What is the Tri-Cities market like in 2026?
The Tri-Cities has shifted from a seller's sprint to a negotiated market in 2026. Prices still edge up while homes sit a little longer, with Johnson City near $264,000, Kingsport near $253,000, and Bristol in the $250,000 to $256,000 range. Priced right, homes still sell.
How do I find out what my home is worth?
Request a free home valuation from Griffin Home Group. We prepare a real comparative market analysis using current Tri-Cities sales, not just an automated estimate, and walk you through what your home would realistically sell for today.
Is now a good time to buy in the Tri-Cities?
Buyers have more leverage in 2026 than in the spring, with more inventory and more room to negotiate even with rates near a one year high. Tennessee charges no state income tax, which keeps drawing relocating buyers to the region.
What areas does Griffin Home Group serve?
Griffin Home Group serves the Tri-Cities and East Tennessee: Johnson City, Kingsport, Bristol TN and VA, Jonesborough, Gray, Elizabethton, Greeneville, and Abingdon and Meadowview in Virginia, including Boone Lake communities.
