WNC Relief Update with Leigh Brown

The recent floods in Western North Carolina have left towns devastated and communities in crisis. Families are still trying to recover, with damaged infrastructure making things worse. 

This episode focuses on the real stories behind the headlines—and how people are stepping up to rebuild. I’m joined by Leigh Brown, broker/owner of One Community Real Estate®, who’s been deeply involved in the relief efforts on the ground. Leigh shares what it’s really like in these affected areas, describing the loss of homes and the struggle to reach isolated communities. 

She highlights the resilience of mountain families and explains why the real estate community has pivoted from selling to helping people stay in their homes. Leigh also emphasizes the importance of donating cash, since damaged infrastructure means many places can only accept cash payments. Throughout the conversation, Leigh offers actionable ways listeners can make a real difference. 

Tune in and hear what’s happening behind the scenes—and how you can help.

Specifically, this episode highlights the following themes:

• The scope of destruction in Western North Carolina and challenges faced
• Grassroots efforts by the real estate community to aid the affected
• How individuals can contribute effectively to relief efforts
