In 2018 the Hilton Head Island housing market enjoyed its best first half of the year in 13 years, according to statistics from the Hilton Head Area Multiple Listing Service. As you can see from the chart to the left, first half home sales in 2018 are up to 540, a rather significant 18% increase from 2017. Essentially home prices on the Island have remained flat for the last two years but are up 6.4% from 2016. The median price of homes selling in the US is at its highest ever. With increasing demand and today’s historically low interest rates, it is an exceptional time to invest in real estate on the Island.

This information is based on data provided by Multiple Listing Service of Hilton Head Island, Inc. (“HHIMLS”) for the period January 2018 through July 5, 2018.

20 Tips for Preparing Your House for Sale Source: Keeping Current Matters, July 2018

When listing your house for sale, your top goal will be to get the house sold for the best price possible! There are many small projects you can do to ensure this happens!

Giving You The EDGE Smart Marketing, Extensive Exposure and Tailored Strategies to Sell Your Home

Active - On the Market Pending - Under Contract Sold - Closed Between January 1, 2018 and June 30, 2018

KEY TRENDS

Give your entry a face lift with either a new coat of paint or a new front door.

Clean everything! Clean homes allow buyers to picture themselves in the space.

Don’t forget to landscape your yard! A well-groomed yard shows buyers that the home was taken care of.

Give every room a purpose - even if you used it as a bonus room, giving it an identity will help buyers.

Make sure all exterior lights work and replace all outdoor light bulbs.

Let light in! Bright rooms feel warm and inviting; dark rooms feel small and gloomy.

Wash all windows (inside and out) to ensure that dirt doesn’t take away from the view. Clean out your garage! Consider getting a storage unit to store non-essential items.

Fix anything that is broken! Buyers will notice and may offer less for your house if repairs are required. De-clutter! Thinning out closets and pantries will highlight space availability.

Add a pop of color by planting flowers that work with your area’s climate.

Replace light bulbs with new ones and make sure all switches are working.

Remove any lawn ornaments that you will bring with you to your new home.

Empty trash bins and hide dirty laundry before your home is shown.

Replace a worn out welcome mat to welcome buyers as they tour the home.

Organize the kitchen! Store non-essential, small appliances and clean all surfaces.

Paint or replace the street numbers on the house to increase their visibility.

Make sure all doors open and close smoothly. Be sure to fix squeaking doors!

Power wash outdoor surfaces to give them a ‘like new’ feel (ex: siding, driveway, sidewalks, etc.)

Fresh paint & new carpet are the top 2 things you can do to sell your home faster and for more money.

As you can see from the chart to the left, first half home sales in 2018 are up to 540, a rather significant 18% increase from 2017. Essentially home prices on the Island have remained flat for the last two years but are up 6.4% from 2016. The median price of homes selling in the US is at its highest ever. With increasing demand and today’s historically low interest rates, it is an exceptional time to invest in real estate on the Island.
