Part Sheep dog, part Realtor on Hilton Head Island

1 Comment | Leave A Comment Categories: Off Topic Hilton Head Area

With the recent bumps in the economy, we have developed our skills at sheep dogging.  Now more than ever we have found that in order to get to closing we have to corral our sellers, our buyers, our bankers, our appraisers, our agents and even our brokers.  Seems every time we think everything is going well, someone strays off the pathway to closing.  Yesterday we had to pull a seller, a buyer, a banker and a short sale negotiator back to the path and tomorrow we expect more of the same.  Read the rest of this entry

Jane and I are seeing confidence flow back into the Hilton Head Real Estate Market.  Some of this has to do with the time of year as buyers are prevalent when the azaleas are in bloom, but we are now seeing more than just spring happening.  Buyers are now writing contracts when they get home and the ether wears off.  Listed below are some of the notable trends for last month:
  • For every property we sold, a new listing took its place.  (this should “stabilize” prices in these categories
  • Unfortunately the higher the price, the longer the Days on Market for properties that are selling
  • Sellers and agents are taking the negotiation out of pricing on homes and villas

Buyers, can you hear the rumble?

Recently we have come across some rippin deals on Hilton Head and Daufuskie Island for our out of state buyers.  The only problem is they are out of state.  What we have found is that for the low cost of a flight and a great hotel room on the beach, we can save our buyer clients thousands of dollars and more importantly help them tie up the property of their dreams.  Recently we had a buyer discover from our Free MLS Update that we offer a perfect property.  The only problem was she was there and we were here.  While we have sold homes, villas and lots sight unseen, sometimes a seller will let us lock in to the property before arrival.

Last week the article “Sellers should throw the dog a bone” created some great controversy and discussion.   We had one seller say to us that he would throw a low ball offer into the waste basket and never respond to it, but we also had one agent say what the heck and told her seller to counter the low ball with a bottom line number.  Now they are heading to closing.  Not that all sellers are the same, but one thing is for sure, they sure get testy when you start talking about money.
