Dear Clients, Friends and Associates~

Last month we published and mailed the first edition, “It’s All About Home” to 9,500 clients interested in Sea Pines, Palmetto Dunes, Wexford, Long Cove, Palmetto Hall, Shipyard, Folly Field, Singleton Beach and Port Royal.  This is the first of its kind and we are excited about this new marketing program.

The Principles of Hilton Head Properties are seasoned real estate professionals in the Hilton Head Area Real Estate Market and know how to get a property sold. Marketing is the big reason a property sits or sells.  Hilton Head Properties marketing will not follow others, but will lead them.

The Hilton Head Area Market is highly competitive for sellers. There are newer properties off Island and lower priced new listings entering the market every day.  In the last 12 months, many sellers were unable to sell their properties. Pro-Active marketing is the difference between hoping or making it happen.

Hilton Head Properties listings are in every mailbox and on every web page.  Our convenient Island location is fabulous and on line our properties have high resolution photography, detailed descriptions, and diligence materials for buyers searching almost any real estate website.  In fact, we are now published in 19 languages with 30 different currencies. Even then, we will not wait for our buyers to find us and every week we send our properties to over 7,000 buyers with updates on the Island via electronic email.

Our goal is to provide great marketing for our seller clients and separate them from the others.  We hope you enjoy the first edition of “It’s All About Home”.  We would love to know what you think and invite your inquiries.  Thank you.
All of Our Best,

Hilton Head Properties

The first half of the year in Real Estate Sales on Hilton Head rocked in 2012.  If our sales volume is an indication of confidence in the real estate market, our individual sales volume year to date was about the total volume we did in 2011!  These sales came from everything including a dollar lot to a multimillion dollar house swap.  On my run this morning I started thinking of market research buyers and seller would like to see in this blog and have listed them below.  While we are thankful for a strong first half, the second half of 21012 looks very promising.

Rental properties on Hilton Head may have taken a beating in value but they have kept on ticking when it comes to rental income. While some values have dropped on rental properties (approximately 36%) on Hilton Head Island, the gross rental income has stayed fairly constant. Recently purchasers have warmed up to rental properties as they negotiate some very sweet deals on some of the best locations.  Although investors have started buying these rental properties, we still have a few great locations available.

The best Hilton Head Island purchase we ever made was “Ol’ Bessie”.  That is what my wife and kids named our 1991 club car golf cart.  When we purchased her in 1993, she had already been set out to pasture by a golf course in the north east and we were told because the seasons were shorter up there, she still had a lot of life in her.  We added the back seat kit and the top and she is still going strong.  Besides golf, there are many reasons to own or rent a golf cart in the Hilton Head or Bluffton areas.
