America’s economy moves when real estate sells.  It is that simple.  In every economic downturn, real estate has turned it around.  Of course real estate is selling again, but not fast enough.  One way to really super charge this economy is to refer your local Realtor or Hilton Head Realtor to just five buyers and sellers.  By referring a real estate agent, you will now be fueling the economy with new buyers or sellers and taking charge of our countries future.  The nice thing about referring a real estate agent on Hilton Head Island is that not everyone has one and many dream of someday owning property in a beautiful sub-tropical area like this.

What can you do to help the Hilton Head economy turn around?

Your real estate agent probably spends more time prospecting than actual selling today and we all need to be out selling more.  Buyers used to be easy to find, however now with the internet they are harder than ever for agents to identify and to help.  If you were to send your agent just five(5) new e-mail contacts from your sphere of influence, you would be giving this country a big boost and speed up the process.  Whether it is contacts from work, church, school, family, the club or acquaintances this grass roots move will help this economy move faster and forward.  It is really that simple.  Thank you.

Do you dream of living on Hilton Head Island?  Are you budget conscious?  Good news!  Iit is now cheaper to own a home rather than renting a similar home on Hilton Head Island.  Based on the low mortgage costs and the attractive pricing the Island offers, the buyer in our example saved approximately 12% extra* per month.  With the rising costs of rents and a limited availability of good rental properties, future residents should consider buying property rather than renting a property in the current market.

How do agents use their Hilton Head Hot-sheet?

Everyday Hilton Head Real Estate agents check their hotsheet to find out what is happening in the real estate market.  Some Realtors check their hot sheet daily and others check it more frequently as this hot-sheet is full of useful information for buyers and sellers.  This is where we see the most recent price adjustments, recent sales, closed sales for the day (pendings), properties that have expired, new listings and properties that are back on the market.  This hot-sheet can help us navigate the market with our buyers and sellers.
