HNY! If the ringing of our phones is any indication of consumer confidence in 2017, we are off to a great start! Talking with real estate agents around the Island, it is unusually busy for January in the Hilton Head Area. We have never seen the year start off so busy. That’s because Hilton Head buyers have these benefits to look forward to! Continue reading
Some of our Hilton Head sellers may be a bit shell shy after the last few years with hardly a nibble, but given the current state of the market, sellers need to know the market is moving. Might be hard to get back on the horse that threw you, but timing is on a sellers side for Hilton Head Vacation Homes and Residential properties…right now.

We guage our business by our phone. The phone is ringing again and already this year we have sold 4 properties. Every indication shows that the pent up demand and consumer confidence will drive the market forward in the first six months on Hilton Head Island.
The market will most likely level off by summer, as we eat through some of this incredible inventory. We will have difficulty meeting demand in the under $400,000 price point for Hilton Head Island villas and homes by summer. As the market is building from the bottom up, we expect greater activity in the $400,000-plus market as more homeowners realize the stimulus is for them. In fact, the high-end luxury market has shown an increase over the last 30 days and we should see these sales steadily climb into 2010.
Below are the sales comparisons for 2008 and 2009 for Beaufort County. Although the year end totals are lower for 2009, it is clearly evident that the market has made the turn based on the last few months of sales and is building momentum.
