Summerville, SC Christmas Tree |
The holiday season is upon us here in the Holy City. We had 70 degree temps and beautiful weather
for Thanksgiving. It’s often the same
for Christmas, but there’s always a chance for a cold snap. There will be all sorts of holiday parades
and Christmas tree lighting's. And of
course the James Island County Park’s 26th Annual Festival of Lights has
already started and will run through New Year’s Day. The Gaillard Auditorium has been completely

Our real estate market continues to set records each week
for buying activity for this time of year.
We always have a seasonal slow down starting some time in October and
usually lasting through February. While
we have slowed down from the incredible summer pace, we are still far ahead of
years past for this time of year. We are
up 14% in terms of number of transactions
over 2014 YTD and will likely surpass 15k residential units sold by the
end of 2015. That will be our 3rd
busiest year ever. Low mortgage rates
continue to encourage buyers to move forward.
And median sales price is up about 5.2% and is pretty stable right now
around $230k-$235k. New construction
makes up about 40% of what we currently have under contract. It is much higher than that in specific areas
like Goose Creek, Johns Island, and north Mt Pleasant. Short sales and foreclosures percentages are
now low enough that they are not really relevant anymore.
As always please allow me to your Realtor and Real Estate consultant and have a great December and Merry Christmas. Call me at 843.696.8627
