The end is near for Hilton Head Buyers and Sellers
We love Hilton Head at this time of year! The pace is slower, the properties are easier to access and the negotiations more relaxed. If you are a seller, there are steps that we can take to close out your property by year end. If you are a buyer there are present opportunities that are available now that will be gone come the new year. Listed below are some of the benefits of buying or selling now. Of course, we would like to be your real estate agent that assists and provides the important market research that can help you save money.

Lately we have seen cash buyers in the market. One possible explanation is that banks are paying next to nothing on passbook/savings accounts and real estate is one of the few asset classes that offer opportunity. Buyers today would rather pay the cash than go to the bank. No matter who you are, buyer or seller, the time to buy or sell is between now and the end of the year. Give us a call 800-932-3652 or shoot us an email for a list of our best buys. If you are a seller, we can show you how to maximize your price and get a contract before year end! Regardless of any of the above, when you are ready to move, we can help!
