Hilton Head Island Villa buyers just want to have fun.  Their motivation is 80% emotion and 20% logic when it comes to a buying on Hilton Head.  Of course, the logical reasons must support the emotion, but don’t waste their time with fixer uppers. These lock and leave owners live in faraway places and let “regime” managers handle the exterior maintenance, the landscaping, the pool, the common area improvements, the trash and the bill paying.  These Hilton Head buyers fall in love with the Spanish Moss and Moon Beams.

The other day, we had two clients from Florida looking at property on Hilton Head Island.  Both buyers commented that  “we really don’t have a recession on Hilton Head Island”.  The cause and effect of media of course washes across the land and colors all areas the same, so we listed the reasons why Hilton Head’s Recession is not the same.  Hilton Head Island is in for a softer landing because of these reasons.

It took me 4 years to sell a house.  Let me explain.  This was not just any house, it was my home.  It had my sons feet and hands and even Granma V’s feet and hands pressed into the new concrete drive when it was built in 1998.  It had notches marked into the bookshelf as our boys grew into teens(and some friends too).  Many happy memories were made in this home and we loved it. Even my wifes yoga instructor felt the positive energy.  It was emotional and valuable. Read the rest of this entry

Dear Clients, Friends & Fellow Associates ~

Of course, your real estate agent will meet you on the beach with a StarBucks to see which villa offers the best sunrise view, they will take you out in the boat to see a waterfront property or they will show you the greens, but they also have the resources to provide you with the logical reasons to buy now. 

Many of our buyers understand the emotional reasons and feel the heartstrings that are driving them towards a purchasing decision, however they usually do not have a clue about the logical reasons that support these other two.  Through the years we have developed a program that demonstrates many of the logical reasons.  This analysis shows the costs of ownership, the interest rates, the purchase price, some potential tax benefits and the rental income (if chosen).

The samples above are for various types of properties.  We would be happy to send you a property analysis on any of our properties seen at www.robbiebunting.com (you can also search the MLS by clicking the link at the top of our listing page)

With over 200 days of sunshine, moderate winters, subtropical temperatures, the natural beauty, 12 miles of beaches, and limited availability of an island this market offers all the emotional reasons that work on our heartstrings. Just last Saturday I took a long walk on the beach with my son’s with the morning fog of the low country rolling in and found mine!

Many purchasers are making their future decisons now as the market offers some great buyer benefits.  One client recently purchased their retirement home on the Island even though they are 10 years away(they will rent it in the meantime).  The money they will save and the equity they will build makes this a wise decision. 

With the Timing that is before us we suggest you getting your foot in the door now!  Visit our website www.robbiebunting.com for the latest listings or seach our MLS(noted on the top of our listing page).  We look forward to helping you find your place on Hilton Head. 

From a Beautiful Island supported by very logical reasons,

We are~
