⁣
Sixty years ago, our Vietnam veterans came home to a country that didn't always welcome them.⁣
⁣
This week, my daddy, Darrell Thomas, got the welcome home he deserved. ❤️🇺🇸⁣
⁣
I had the privilege of accompanying him to Washington, D.C., with Queen City Honor Flight. Watching him visit the Vietnam Veterans Memorial, reflect on his service, and be surrounded by so much love and gratitude is something I'll never forget.⁣
⁣
A special thank you to Queen City Honor Flight for honoring veterans across generations, and to our dear family friend Mike Stubbs, a fellow Vietnam veteran who continues serving others through his work with the organization.⁣
⁣
And thank you to for spending the day with us and helping share these important stories.⁣
⁣
I wish every Vietnam veteran could experience this kind of homecoming. It's long overdue. The full video is on our We Love Concord YouTube channel. I've linked it in my Stories.⁣
⁣
This is the welcome home our Vietnam veterans should have received nearly 60 years ago! We can't change the welcome home they received decades ago, but we can make sure they know how much we appreciate them TODAY.⁣
⁣
A few weeks ago, I wrote in my Substack about how we're losing our World War II veterans and the stories that disappear with them. Check it out: https://leighthomasbrown.substack.com/p/there-was-only-one-wwii-vet-left
⁣
Welcome home, Daddy. We love you. ❤️🇺🇸⁣

✝️ ARE YOU WILLING TO STAND APART?⁣
⁣
Y’all, following Jesus was never supposed to be a popularity contest!⁣
⁣
We spend so much of our lives trying to fit in, keep everybody happy, and avoid rocking the boat. But somewhere along the way, we have to ask ourselves… are we trying harder to please the world than we are to follow Jesus?⁣
⁣
Matthew 3:12 reminds us that God separates the wheat from the chaff. That’s a pretty serious reminder that eternity matters a whole lot more than temporary approval.⁣
⁣
And listen, choosing Jesus doesn’t mean life suddenly gets easy. Sometimes it means losing relationships, walking away from old habits, and being the odd one out.⁣
⁣
But what you gain in Him? Mercy. Grace. Peace. And the promise of eternity. ❤️⁣
⁣
So here’s my question for you today:⁣
⁣
If following Jesus costs you the approval of people you love, are you still willing to follow Him?⁣
⁣
That’s a question worth sitting with, y’all. Because fitting in with the world isn’t worth losing sight of eternity.⁣
⁣
🙏 I’d love to hear your thoughts. Have you ever had to make a difficult choice because of your faith?

🏡 CHARLOTTE REAL ESTATE: Who’s BUYING, Who’s SELLING, & Who’s Throwing in the Towel? 😂⁣
⁣
This week’s Market in a Minute comes from a viewer who’s an investor looking for opportunities around Charlotte. And honey, there’s a LOT of ground to cover!⁣
⁣
Here’s what today’s MLS hot sheet tells us:⁣
⁣
▪️ 1,476 new listings⁣
▪️ 761 under contract⁣
▪️ 901 sellers who called it quits!⁣
Now, does that mean the Charlotte housing market is in trouble? NOT SO FAST!⁣
⁣
Homes ARE selling. Others aren’t. And some sellers might be getting a little more motivated. ⁣
⁣
The difference? Price, condition, location, and sometimes a seller who needs a little reality check!😂⁣
⁣
There’s opportunity in this market but you’ve got to know where to look! That’s where my team and I come in. We know how to dig past the numbers and find the REAL story.⁣
⁣
👇 YOUR TURN! Where would YOU invest around Charlotte right now? City, suburbs, or farther out?⁣ Let’s hear it!⁣

🏃You ever have somebody call you out mid-workout and realize they’re doing it because they care? That happened this morning. A friend’s form needed fixing, so I spoke up. A pulled muscle would have been a lousy souvenir from the run.⁣
⁣
That little moment stayed with me. Caring about people means sometimes saying the thing you hope they’ll hear—even when it’s easier to keep moving.⁣
⁣
That’s one reason I talk about Jesus. He met me in a hard, stuck place and started changing me from the inside out. I’m still a work in progress; some old habits require more than one “Lord, help me.” But grace keeps meeting me there.⁣
⁣
And Luke 19:40 says the rocks could take over if we stay quiet. I’m not eager to hand them the microphone.⁣
⁣
Someone near you may be carrying shame or regret and wondering if there’s any way forward. There is. Jesus is ready to meet them right where they are.⁣
⁣
So if you’ve found hope, don’t keep it to yourself. Say His name. You never know who needs to hear it today. ❤️🙏

For the first 30 days at a new brokerage, you’re going to feel like a brand-new agent.⁣
Not because you are one.⁣
Because everything around you is unfamiliar.⁣
⁣
Different systems.⁣
Different people.⁣
Different coffee.⁣
That feeling passes.⁣
⁣
The full conversation is on YouTube now.⁣
Link in the Stories.

And if you’re thinking about where your business belongs next, DM me. Let’s talk.⁣

October already? Fourth quarter of 2026? Thank you, Jesus—we made it this far! 🙌

If you’re looking at year-end investment numbers and wondering what moves to make next, multifamily real estate may be on your radar. If you’re considering shifting some money out of the stock market or putting gains to work in real estate, let’s talk.

Here’s your Market in a Minute multifamily update:

▪️ 1 coming soon property—no showings yet, but call me and I’ll see what scoop I can get.

▪️ 293 available properties, priced from $111,111 up to $12 million. The options range in size, with some properties offering as many as 52 units.

▪️ 48 properties in some form of contract.

Multifamily deals take time and homework. You’ve got to run the numbers, understand the upgrades and upfits, and know where your investment dollars are coming from. There are value-add opportunities, cash-flow-positive properties, and a little something for different goals.

👉 Can you still buy this year? Yes—if you hustle.

👉 Thinking about selling?
Yes, there are buyers ready to take a look.

My team and I love helping people make thoughtful real estate decisions. Let’s discuss what might make sense for you.
