When the azaleas are in full bloom, so is the Hilton Head Real Estate Market.  It is easy to understand why April is the biggest selling month of the year in the Hilton Head area. The near perfect weather, Easter, and The RBC Heritage make it easy to fall in love with Hilton Head Island.  If you are going to buy, here’s how you can get a jump ahead of other spring buyers.

Contact a Local Lender before your Hilton Head Visit

The reason for a local lender is they know the ins and outs of the local market.  They know where to get condo docs, what transfer fees the communities charge and they know the local attorneys that close real estate in the area.  Call your agent or a local lender and get pre-approved before you get to the Island.  This will give you confidence to write an offer when you find the perfect property.

Sign Up for a Free Portal with Your Hilton Head Agent

Perfect properties sell quickly in April.  By signing up for a Hilton Head MLS portal you will be one of the first to know when a new property hits the market.  This portal can include all the criteria you feel is important in your Hilton Head area property.

Get the Free HHI MLS app for your smart phone

When you are out on a bike ride or playing golf, the HHI MLS app will show you the properties for sale around you.  It is not like Zillow or those other apps that show you listings that don’t exist.  It shows you listings that are for sale on a map that is easy to see.

Link up with a Local Hilton Head REALTOR

Talking with an agent before you get to the Island will help you have eyes and ears on the ground.  Agents often hear about properties before they come up for sale.  If you have an agent shopping for you, it will help you locate the perfect property and save you time.  Feel free to contact one of our awesome agents if you do not have one already.
