Carolina Realty Group is pleased to announce that year to date, we have close to $90,000,000 ($90 million) in closed and pending business.
We have $17 million in sales just for the month of August, and it is only August 15th. We also have 2 sales over $6million which are not only record sales for Sea Pines Plantation, but record high sales island wide. There are several reasons for our success. One reason is the commitment of all our real estate agents to work as hard as they can for their clients. At Carolina Realty Group, we know that to succeed in this real estate environment, we have to “think outside the box”. We are the only real estate company that works as a “Team”. When you hire 1 agent, you get 17 people working hard to get your property sold or help you find the right property to buy. We reported in our monthly market report that almost 35% of the sales have been in the short-sale/foreclosure category. We have spoken to many clients that are frustrated over their financial predicament and feel that they are getting no answers from the bank. The short-sale process is complicated and most home owners and the majority of the real estate community does not understand it; however, we know there is a need for information. Carolina Realty Group has invested in the training, and if you have any questions, you need to call our Loss Mitigation Coordinator, Dan Prudhomme. The second reason is that we have the most comprehensive & interactive real estate website in the Low Country. Through our website, you are exposed to at least another 20 sites. We have a “live chat”, realtor drip email campaigns along with another 200,000 in our client database, best buy emails, market reports, newsletters, and we understand the importance of search engine optimization. A third reason is that we have not only the best listings on Hilton Head Island, but the best priced listings. We are not the kind of company that walks into your property and tell you within 5 minutes of seeing your property the list price. This is a very perplexing, difficult market that we are in at this time, and it is essential that a realtor explain to you how they came up with a value for your property. If you are selling your home, pricing is key! We are encouraged by our current sales activity and feel we are on our way to recovery in the real estate market. We still have a long ways to go, and it is important to note that short sales and foreclosures will continue to rise. This is just a process that real estate will have to go through in order to rebound. If you have an interest in selling or buying, please call Carolina Realty Group. Now with an office on Hilton Head (843-341-5660) and an office in Bluffton (843-837-2600), we have 17 agents that can take care of all your needs in Bluffton or on the island.
