Another Reason to Call the Hunnicutt Real Estate Team

if you are thinking about Selling or Buying in the Charleston Area!

Sales are still going along quite strong, but would be even stronger if we had a few more properties to choose from.
Prices, specifically $/sf. prices, are all going up.
Only 3 of the homes under contract in Mt Pleasant were under $150/sf!!
The prices in areas 61-64 were not so good this week, but we finally saw some improvement in areas 71-76.
This is a good sign.  I think investors and other buyers are realizing that this is the last chance to pick up a few bargains.
I think they may have already done that in areas 71-76.
It won't be long before all the under market value properties are gone and prices can really head up.
