There are 36 active homes, 10 homes under contract and 5 sales for the month of May (6 sold May 2017). The average days on market YTD is 130 days and sellers are getting an average of 94.5% of their asking price. Median price dropped to $611,250. Most of the lackluster performance this year is a result of low inventory and next month will look better once the pending sales close.

It’s your chance you make your oceanfront dreams a reality!
The Big Picture
Hilton Head Area real estate activity has continued its upward trend in a 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.
