About the Bulls Bay Area R
unning along South Carolina’s coast between the metropolitan areas of Charleston and Myrtle Beach is a rural stretch of land that beckons to a time when things moved a little slower. The Bulls Bay Historic Passage consists of the northern tip of Charleston County which contains the towns of McClellanville and Awendaw.
Bounded by over a quarter of a million acres of Francis Marion National Forest to the west and 22 miles of protected coastline in the Cape Romain Wildlife Refuge to the east, as well as the Santee Coastal Reserve and Santee River delta to the north, this area is buffered from urban growth and development. Residents choose to live here as a way to get out of the city and back to nature. The history of the area is rich, dating back to the Native American tribe known as the Sewee Indians, from whom many local names such as “Awendaw” derive their roots. The area also witnessed its first European settlers dating back to the 1600’s. French Hugeonots settled along the Santee River and gave rise to rice plantations. The Gullah-Geechee culture is still preserved by the descendants of former slaves. Hopsewee and Hampton Plantations are both open to the public providing visitors a glimpse into the history of the area. McClellanville and Awendaw came about as coastal retreats away from the swampy, mosquito-filled rice fields of the plantations. McClellanville’s Historic District holds many homes dating back to the mid to late 1800’s. Much of the area’s beauty is drawn from its natural surroundings; the creeks and marsh, the oceans and sunsets, the native palmettos and live oaks draped with Spanish Moss. The diverse ecology spreading from the forests, swamps, marshes, and beaches makes the area a prime destination for bird-watching and photography. An abundance of deer, turkey, and ducks also allow for great hunting opportunities. Other outdoor activities centering around the waters of the wildlife refuge include boating, world-class fishing, and shelling on the secluded beaches only accessible by boat. The wildlife refuge is a Class 1 Wilderness Area, prized for its pristine water and air purity and is the longest stretch of the protected coastline on the eastern shore of the U.S. Kayaking, canoeing and paddleboarding are also great activities to enjoy in the saltwater creeks. They also offer a chance to spot a friendly dolphin or explore the mysterious black waters and swamps where you might encounter an alligator or two.
McClellanville’s Jeremy Creek is a hub for commercial fishing which includes its famous shrimp boat fleet, as well as clammers, oystermen, crabbers, and fishermen. Their bounties can be purchased fresh from the local seafood markets or eaten cooked to perfection from any of the area’s fabulous restaurants. A strong artist community also flourishes in this area rich in inspiration and several boutiques and galleries offer the work of many artists, authors, and craftspeople. Southern hospitality lives on in the hearts of these communities. Strangers hold open doors, people wave and smile, families get together for Sunday lunches and neighbors catch up with one another over a glass of sweet tea. Welcome Home to Bulls Bay.

Sold in ‘16 - MCVL Realty
Spring Market Rally
We typically strive to roll out a new real estate guide every quarter, but this issue changed from last fall’s issue, to the winter edition, and now to the spring issue because we have just been so incredibly busy with our market! At the time of publication just a few months into 2017, MCVL Realty has closed 7 properties and we have an astonishing 16 properties under contract (pending sale). I compiled the images to the left to show off the impressive 40 properties we closed last year, which was twice as many as the year before, but just look at this years activity below! It is bound to be another banner year in sales as people realize all of the amazing opportunities available in our area. The speed at which we have been producing new listings and placing existing ones under contract has made the basic process of laying out the magazine nearly impossible and one of the reasons that this issue took so long to get out the gate. The fluid nature of real estate sales in a highly active market make working in a medium like print that has a much longer shelf-life difficult, but rather than admitting defeat, we are doubling down on our commitment to produce this quarterly magazine and will supplement it with more and more great regular content. At the end of the day, we fully admit that this magazine has its limitations on its own, but want it to serve as a starting off point in building our relationship with our readers. We hope that through the magazine, you will see our value and local expertise and reach out to us with your needs. In this issue we have also decided to introduce a few “coming soon” listings. We have a signed listing agreement for these properties, but they weren’t quite ready for the MLS at the time of publication. So when you go to the link at the bottom of the listing instead of being taken to the MLS listing you will go to a webpage with all of the marketing materials that we have on the property at that time. Once the listing is live in the MLS, we’ll update the link to point there, but we wanted to get as much infomation as we could about these properties to our readers. Of course, you can also always reach out to the listing agent for more information as well!
2016 was an incredible year for real estate sales in the Bulls Bay area with activity surpassing pre-recession rates. MCVL Realty led all other offices in the area in sales for the 3rd year in a row and more than doubled last years sales with 53 sides totaling over $7.5 million in sales. These sales represented a 24% share of the McClellanville / Awendaw market, twice that of the closest competitor. A majority of these sales came from within McClellanville, where we dominated the market with a commanding 36.7% share. This chart shows the number of sold properties each year broken down by location. While cumulative sales in the area rose from the year before, you can see a slight dip in Awendaw’s sales, though McClellanville’s sales more than made up the difference and showed a 60% increase in sales over the previous year. Awendaw’s decline was due not to a lack of interest, because that market grows hotter by the day, but was brought on only by a lack of inventory. The next chart shows how the inventory of properties for sale has changed during this same period of time. You can see before the recession, inventory was below 40 properties (that’s homes and land) in each area, but as sales slowed there was a tremendous backlog of properties sitting and sitting on the market. We are still selling off much of this inventory and as prices regain footing, people are now listing new properties for sale as well. The number of properties for sale in McClellanville has generally hovered between 100 and 125 for the last 5 years with about 80% of that inventory being land for sale. Awendaw, on the other hand, has declined from its high of 128 listings for sale to a recent low of 55, of which land also represented about 80%. This difference between these two markets has led us to see the price of property climb more rapidly in Awendaw than in McClellanville. The law of supply and demand dictates whether we refer to a market as a “buyer’s market” or a “seller’s market” and I would say that for the time being we are still in a “buyer’s market” in McClellanville and Awendaw is fairly balanced but leaning toward a seller’s market especially with homes where there were only 11 houses for sale at the time of publication, one below $200K and 2 more in the $200-$300K range. The final chart shows the breakdown of sales by property type with residential sales remaining fairly level over the last 3 years, but the area picking up an extra 21 land sales from 2016 over 2015. So far in 2017 11 lots and 7 homes have sold and 28 properties (14 homes and 14 lots) are under contract. January set an all time record in the area with 10 sold properties. Looking forward to the rest of the year, everything points toward a continued rally in the market which will only be limited by the supply of great properties, so give us a call today to discuss listing your property! Or if you are a buyer, let the local experts help you navigate these tricky waters and still find you an outstanding deal.
“I Don’t Want a Homeowners Association”
As more and more people move from the cities and suburbs to McClellanville and Awendaw to find their piece of the country, we are hearing an all too common theme that they do not want to be in a Homeowners Association or HOA. They recite stories of psychotic HOA presidents who hide in the bushes and live to make their life a daily hell, fines for trash cans not being rolled in, grass an inch too tall, or boats temporarily parked in the yard, and rules telling them what color their mailbox must be. Did I forget to mention the fees? The HOA fees in some of the neighborhoods are more than the mortgage on my first home.
“BUT”, I tell them, “there’s just one problem... you see, a lot of the listings that match the criteria you gave me, such as being secluded, wooded, and no mobile homes nearby... well those listing do have HOAs”. When creating a neighborhood, whether it be just a few homes or several blocks, developers can spend an enormous amount of money to bring the roads up to county standards in order for them to be adopted as public roads or they can keep them private. If they are going to remain private an agreement should be put in place to ensure the future maintenance of the roads so that they don’t deteriorate. You may not even be so worried about the roads, but if you’re financing the purchase, you can bet that your lender will want to see a road maintenance agreement spelling out the upkeep of all common areas. Enter what I have coined the “Pass-the-hat HOA”, at least in our area. While some may have a slightly higher accounting process, why I refer to them as such is because in most cases they literally go door to door (perhaps send a letter to land owners) telling them it’s time to pony up for the year. Because the fees only go to maintain a road, which may typically involve buying a load or two of gravel and grading it with a tractor a couple times each year, the fees are commonly between $100-500. Make a note: that’s PER YEAR, not per month. So when one neighbor doesn’t pay when they are passing the hat around, everyone else just pitches in a little more and the job gets done. It’s the country, we know how to adapt and overcome and we don’t often need to make a federal case over someone being down on their luck. They aren’t going to slap a lien on your property when you don’t pay your dues, but they might not invite you over for supper if you’re not paying because you’re a jerk. You’ll probably live a pain-free life until perhaps you go to sell your home and the attorney calls the HOA president to verify all fees have been paid and they tell them that you are actually 3 years behind and those dues have to get paid at closing. Being an HOA, these neighborhoods also have rules known as Conditions, Covenants and Restrictions, or CC&R for short. Because lawyers are usually involved in this part, the CC&R reads like an operators manual for an unwieldy piece of machinery, but they are the law of the land, so read them carefully. Unfortunately, they are often a boiler plate set of rules that the attorney copied and pasted from their big book of legal documents and you are lucky if the developer actually read them before putting them in place. They often mention architectural review boards, which are rarely ever formed, and prohibit things like satellite dishes in the front yard. No, not your DirecTV dish on the roof, they’re talking about those old-school 10 feet tall metal dishes that no one has seen for 20 years. When you read these rules, what you want to look for is whether the CC&R are really limiting your peaceful enjoyment of the area or your building plans. You should find that they don’t contain rules against parking boats in your yard, the height of your grass, or raising chickens or even horses. If they don’t, you now have to ask yourself whether you are willing to break your promise to never live in another HOA even if it is the means by which you finally find the peace and quiet of country living.

Awendaw, SC
Awendaw Creek
Seewee Shell Ring
Heading north out of Mt. Pleasant on Highway 17, as the traffic lights drop off and you start seeing more trees than you do people, you enter into the Town of Awendaw. Bounded by the Francis Marion National Forest to the west and the Cape Romain Wildlife Refuge to the east, Awendaw is a rural area rich in natural beauty that offers a short commute to the Charleston Metro area. The town takes its name from the Seewee Indians whose shell rings can still be found along the coast. Awendaw is a rather decentralized town with huge swaths of undeveloped land and most of the homes and small subdivisions running off of Seewee and Doar Road parelleling the coast. A cluster of businesses at its southern end include Seewee Restaurant, Sewee Outpost (notice that even residents don’t agree on the spelling of the Indian word), Tractor Supply, and Dollar General. The Sewee Outpost also hosts the musical venue known as Awendaw Green, which offers concerts and “Barn Jams” every Wednesday night. Garris Landing is the local public boat launch and also home to a ferry taking visitors from the mainland to Bulls Island within the Refuge to see a natural spectacle known as the “Bone Yard”. Awendaw is also rich in hiking and biking trails including the head of the state-wide Palmetto Trail and home to the Sewee Visitor Center and the Center for Birds of Prey.

McClellanville Boat Landing
Deer Head Oak
Located 25 miles from Georgetown and Mt. Pleasant, McClellanville finds itself more isolated than Awendaw and in the center of the Cape Romain Wildlife Refuge and the Francis Marion National Forest. Rules and regulations offer greater protection from growth and over-development to residents who enjoy peace and quiet of this rural escape. McClellanville is generally known for its oak lined avenues, historic homes, seafood industry, and slower pace of life. Known as “The Village” by those who have lived here, McClellanville began along the banks of Jeremy Creek in the mid-1800’s and has remained centralized to this day. The historic district is located on the northern side of the creek and is home to the Town Hall, boat landing, parks, museum, marina, shrimp docks, seafood markets, shops, boutiques, T.W. Graham’s restaurant, and headquarters of MCVL Realty at 822 Pinckney Street. The southern side of Jeremy Creek contains the Silver Hill and Skipper’s Point neighborhoods. McClellanville’s highway commercial district along Highway 17 offers numerous additional shops, restaurants, gas stations, a marine supply and repair shop, and a Dollar General. The area surrounding the Town of McClellanville is largely rural and traveling inland offers greater acreage opportunities.
