It has been said that “timing is everything” when it comes to buying a property in the Hilton Head area.  But that’s not the really the main reason.  The pull of the ocean, sub tropical temperatures, beautiful beaches, and the natural beauty are the real reasons for most buyers in the Hilton Head area.

It’s about 80% emotion, 20% logic for Hilton Head buyers!

The logical reasons for buying real estate include low interest rates, fabulous rental income, and low pricing. While these logical reasons may change or go away, the emotional reasons will never change.  Therefore, no matter what your timing is, the best reasons to buy will always be available.  Happy Hilton Head!

More and more agents are selling properties using “face time” with their buyers.  In the past, buyers had to travel to see the property before they would ever consider purchasing.  Using face time and turning the phone around allows a buyer to walk through a property with their agent, asking questions as they go.  Some buyers never stepped foot in the property until closing.

A note from Gerry at Miller Long Term Rentals:

Now is the time to take advantage of low interest rates, low home prices and an excellent long term rental market to help defray the carrying costs, even though you are not planning to move for a few years.  This is a trend that is happening now on Hilton Head. 

If you would like to discuss the prospects of buying and renting a home on Hilton Head Island or the Bluffton area, please call our office as we would be happy to explain the long term rental market.
