Sellers are either “In” the Hilton Head Market or “Out”
It seemed to me that there were a lot of properties for sale the other day. That was until an agent spoke up in one of our Dunes Marketing Group sales meetings. Of the properties in a community he showed a client, only 20% of the sellers were actually “in” the market. The other properties were over priced and the buyer did not even want to look at them. I did some market research on this area and others and discovered that 80% of the properties were on average 40% higher in price than the others. Once he and his buyer realised this concept, a buying decision was made based on these “lower” inventories. Read the rest of this entry
A different kind of Real Estate Company
Some companies are not really companies, but a group of individuals that all do their own thing. My Hilton Head real estate company is different. The best way to describe my company is to think about a swim team. Each race is individual to the specialist, but when it comes time to practice we all work together. Of course, when we go head up against another company we always do our individual best and sometimes pull in the team to help us get the job done. We are alway one of the top companies in any area of the Island. Read the rest of this entry
The signs on Hilton Head Island
Blooming azaleas, buyer appointments, phones ringing and multiple offers are all signs that Hilton Head is clearly in recovery. Although, the recovery will be more of a campaign than a flip of a switch, it is now taking place. Sellers are finally listening to their agents, buyers are finally stepping up to these properties with confidence and it is now GAME ON. Read the rest of this entry
We can build year round on Hilton Head
We can start building homes any time of the year on Hilton Head Island! As with any market, with more demand, prices will rise. Demand in the middle of 2009 was at a 10 year low. However, the later part of 2009 and the start of 2010 has revealed a steady increase in building new homes. Overall, construction costs are currently lower than the past few years. However, as the building market continues its long and steady re-growth, costs to build will increase accordingly. Read the rest of this entry
Hilton Head’s Bottom is clearly showing
Properly priced Hilton Head properties are now selling. Reasons include the blending of season, interest rates, bottom pricing and consumer confidence. The simple truth is “time is at hand and the Hilton Head’s bottom is clearly showing”. There has been positive movement in the market as some of the older listings sell(some of these should have sold 2 years ago) and the newer listing that are correctly priced are selling quickly. If you are heading down for vacation, schedule your time early in your week. If you are not planning a trip, now is the time to jump in the car. Last week we had two buyers jump in their car and they negotiated great deals. Read the rest of this entry
Multiple offers on Hilton Head Island.
If you are a Hilton Head buyer or seller you need to know that we just sold a villa over asking price and had 3 offers on a home listing. In fact we had 3 cash offers over asking price on one of these properties. By the way, this property was not a short sale or foreclosure and was priced over a quarter of a million dollars. It was far from an easy layup. In fact, for the first 3 days after adjusting the price and before our second marketing blitz started…nothing happened on this Hilton Head property.
