The other day drove we drove to Savannah in the late afternoon, shopped, had dinner and were back on the Island at 8 pm.  While we were there my wife introduced us to an incredible “Bee Store” and we sampled the Tupelo Honey which as the story goes comes from blossoms that only are out for a few weeks in a specific region.   If you have a chance to visit Savannah check out the Carriage Tours, Paula Deens Restaurant~ The Lady and Sons, Mrs. Wilkes Dining Room, The Crystal Beer ParlorHistoric River StreetForsyth Park, and Bonaventure Cemetery.

 



Managing buyers and sellers expectations on Hilton Head

An agent called the other day and presented an offer 70% off the adjusted asking price.  We understood the buyer(agent) was trying to negotiate with the seller….but it seemed to me the agent really set their buyer up for disappointment.  The first thing that popped into mind was “Do they really want to buy this home?”  and “Who really came up with this price?”  Typically when a buyer makes an offer this low, it usually means they do not understand the present real estate market and it is our job as professionals to move them closer to reality.  Usually buyers need more information and will proceed if we better manage their expectations.  Our recent market trends reports helps our sellers and buyers better understand the Hilton Head Real Estate market and sets them up for success.  In this case, similar properties were selling for 11% on average off the listing price. So how did this buyer determine offering 70% less?



“Our” RBC Heritage on Hilton Head Island

We met with Steve Wilmot, the Tournament Director for The RBC Heritage locally sponsored by Boeing. Steve shares with us how this PGA Tournament provides benefits to the local community from its worldwide coverage. I think this is the very best real estate marketing program we have. The tournament fuels our local and state businesses to the tune of around $80 million dollars in economic impact.  We all benefit from the RBC Heritage in some way whether you are a seller, buyer, business person, visitor or local.   On a Realtor level a simple link to one of our websites can help with ticket sales and introduce new and returning visitors to the Island, a great time of year and great golf.  If you would like to explore ways you can get involved, please visit Heritage Foundations Website.
