The last horrah of summer is only 2 days away! But does that mean its time to stop looking??? On the contrary, its the perfect time to buy! In fact i was on city-data.com today and its a great site to get stats on any city (or you can use zip code) in the country. Housing price and sales trends, population, and other demographics. I was looking at the myrtle beach area and Brunswich Coutny like calabash and surrounding areas in NC & SC. Buyers, you need to be buying now with the floor in price levels here (before it starts trending upward again in 2009). And sellers, if you bought in 2004 or earlyer, what a great time to sell and upgrade to a better property!! Let Eagle Realty help and we look forward to working with you soon!
School is about to come back in session locally here in the myrtle beach area, and summer is coming to a close once again (though the weather will disagree for a while i would say). Historically, early fall is a good time to buy some real estate here on the coastal area. After all the summer properties get out of their busy rental season there is a little surge in inventory which means price negotiations work out to a buyers favor. Alot of people will say wait till winter when sellers are really desperate, but if they have a good realtor they have probably pulled their unit off the market for winter depending on their situation because they know there will be limited activity which means buyers in the winter months typically have less inventory to choose from. Rates are creeping upward so we do have an urgent situation...if you can buy, buy now to lock in some historically low rates.

Here in Myrtle Beach the heat wave was grueling, but it has tempered out for a little bit and relief...as much as can be expected. School is getting ready to start back up and last minute vacations are being taken! What about real estate? Well at Eagle Realty its moving! Foreclosure inventory is some of the best deals in town. Great investor buys! Fall is a good time to get good pricing before the holidays and look for that 2nd home or vacation property. Buy it now to gear up for spring. Rates holding steady for now...don't pass up what you want now only to pay more later!
In the midst of the sensationlism that the papers and media try to sell to you the American public that all is lost and hope is gone, i would hope you make the drastic yet rational and logical decision to turn off the news and lay down the paper and take a look around. Now i am not nieve enough to think all of us are in the perfect situation in life, but if you are reading this you must have a computer with an internet connection and are probably sitting with a roof over your head. A car in your driveway, though you may not drive it as much anymore, and a snack or meal within reach. We are blessed and we should notice. The real estate market is no different...are sales less than 2005 or maybe even this time last year? Yes. Are SALES more than this past winter 2008...YES!! Is it a great time to get deals? YES! Is inventory decreasing slightly in some areas? YES! Are rates still low enough to take advantage of? YES! Did gas drop by a few cents this past weekend? YES!! I just thought you needed a few YES's in your day! Know this, real estate is cyclical...it is always a sound investment over time (key words) and it is a great time to buy! Don't let people control your decisions or mindset...take a look around for yourself.
Now how can the real estate market be down with the highest ever single-family residential sale in the country?? Donal Trumps home in West Palm Beach (or should i say estate) closes at $100 million dollars. I have seen the estate up close and personal and what a beauty. In comparison, why spend that kind of money when in Myrtle Beach, SC Eagle Realty can get you ocean front for under $1,500,000 (or much less for a condo)* The best deals on the Grand Strand in Myrtle Beach, look for the Eagle, Eagle Realty.
