“Why do I need a CL100 when I buy or sell a home or villa on Hilton Head?” I’m not sure where the name comes from, but a smarter title, which appears on the report itself, “OFFICIAL SOUTH CAROLINA WOOD INFESTATION REPORT”, makes alot more sense. During a sale of structural property in South Carolina involving a lending institution, the CL-100 will usually be a mandatory report at closing. In most conventional cases, the seller is responsible for the CL-100. A thorough, professional inspection is part of every CL100. The report will point out any water-damage issues, however small they may be. It’s important to know that the CL-100 will only report water and fungal damage that is “below the first main floor”.
Hilton Head Properties welcomes Tad Segars as Partner. Prior to entering his real estate career over 26 years, Tad co-owned the beach service on Hilton Head Island.

Safe Surf on Hilton Head
Hilton Head’s Beaches offer two body guards that are sandbars on each end of the Island. Joiner Banks on the north and Gaskin Banks on the south catch the really bad stuff before it hits the shores. These two sandbars come together about a mile offshore and help make our waters both swimmer and child friendly. No matter the age from toddler to elderly, sitting in the Hilton Head surf brings smiles.
A1A on Hilton Head
Hilton Head’s beach offers 11 miles of walk and bike-ability. The sugar sand of Hilton Head is just hard enough to be excellent for walking, biking or jogging. In fact, Hilton Head beachgoers do not have to travel by car to get to a different beach, they can barefoot it from one beach to the next. Of course, plan carefully to walk through the Folly at low tide otherwise you may have to swim!
Hilton Head’s Beach is Tops

A quick search and we found Hilton Head has been named #1 Beach in 2010 by Fox News, #2 beach by 10Best.com and #6 by US News Travel. When it comes to swimming, walking, biking, sand, and room to spare, it is hard to find a more perfect beach in the World.

Everyone loves a good map. The maps of Hilton Head Island and its communities offer the opportunity for buyers to research the location before they ever jump in the agents car.

Every residential Hilton Head community that ever had a vacant home-site has a ARB which is an acronym for Architectural Review Board. Just like a Hilton Head POA, the board is made up of members from the community, professionals and adminstrators that make decisions about the architecture based on the covenants of the community. These review boards protect the residential integrity of their community and help uphold property values from these efforts. Read the rest of this entry
We have our own language when it comes to Hilton Head real estate. We say villas, regimes, harbours and complexes when others would call them condos, condo fees, marinas, PUD’s and projects. We use the word regime for condos in Hilton Head because when a condo is built in South Carolina, a Horizontal Property Regime is formed and recorded. This regime than manages the common property going forward. This blog is about regimes fees on Hilton Head Island. Read the rest of this entry

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. Read the rest of this entry
