Transition vs. Transaction – Part II
When we left you in late spring, the real estate market was all “Seashells and Balloons.” I’m happy to say that, as far as “dog days” of summer are concerned, we were having none of it. The positive rhythms of the market have continued through the summer.
Seabrook Island and your real estate company enter the autumn season having the best year since the 2008 recession, with Island wide sales some 40% ahead of last year. Average sales prices and profit are both up substantially.
Thank you to all those who have trusted in Seabrook Island Real Estate and our agents’ overwhelming knowledge and experience about our amazing island! It reflects well on the partnership our company has created with the island as a whole and shows your total support for The Club, SIPOA, the Town and the numerous private organizations that make this a great community. Beyond the financial contribution Seabrook Island Real Estate provides, we continue to get positive responses to the quality service we provide in helping buyers with their transition to their new life on Seabrook and sellers in preparation for sale of their home after many years as Seabrook residents.
Examples of this service include:
1. The owners of a large home who are ready to downsize into a townhome and needed help with repairs, as well as quick and convenient sources for paring down their precious possessions.
2. The family needing help to transition their elderly parents to a new life near grandchildren.
3. The new Seabrookers, just retired, and looking to meeting neighbors and learn about the best ways to leap headfirst into their active, Seabrook lifestyle.
4. The client leaving Seabrook after many years to start a new life and career in the big city and needing help setting the price and conditions for a quick, but fair sale.
Seabrook Island Real Estate agents do not just sell real estate and close transactions! Doing business here is far different than the anonymous transactions performed by large companies in suburban locations. We want to be your partner as your transition to a new stage of your life, be it with the purchase of a new property on the island or the sale of an existing property. Thanks for all of your year after year support in continuing to make us the preeminent real estate company on Seabrook Island.
