The Greater Bluffton housing market continues to be on fire, and ever so close to the all-time January record set in 2016, according to statistics from the Hilton Head Island-Bluffton Area Multiple Listing Service. In the boom years prior to The Great Recession, January homes sales in Greater Bluffton, which includes all of southern Beaufort County except Hilton Head and Daufuskie Islands, peaked in 2005 at 77 sales. In January 2018 though, an extraordinary 132 homes were sold, bettering the pre-recession peak by 71%. As you can see from the chart to the left, only 2016 was better with 136 homes sold. The median price did drop a statistically insignificant 1% compared to January 2017; however, home sale prices in the last two years have been at the highest levels in the history of our area. With today’s historically low interest rates, prices rising and more growth coming to the area, it is an extraordinary time to invest in real estate in our area.
