The Big Picture

Hilton Head Area real estate activity has continued its upward trend in number of sales and median sales price. Although housing supply is low, there are signs of improvement for new listings. Sellers are beginning to come out of hibernation while new build projects are taking shape with more regularity. Many sellers and builders are in a good position for financial gains, as the economy continues to improve. Low inventory should continue to create a competitive situation for buyers, causing price increases over the next several months. In addition; buyers are encouraged to act now as they become more aware of increasing mortgage rates.
