Like the remainder of the country, Hilton Head Island foreclosures and short sales are still available for those looking for a great deal. However, the number is dwindling. The good news is there are many great buys on the Island that are not in foreclosure or short sale status. You just need to be a savvy hunter and discuss all of your options with your real estate agent and truly understand what foreclosures and short sales are and the ramifications of purchasing them.

You keep hearing that now is the time to buy. If you are looking for the foreclosure or short sale, it definitely is the time to buy. There are currently very few remaining on the market.  For instance, there are only 3 Sea Pines foreclosures, 2 Palmetto Dunes foreclosures, 1 Forest Beach foreclosure, 1 Shipyard foreclosure, 3 Wexford foreclosures and  5 Hilton Head Plantation foreclosures remaining in the Hilton Head Multiple Listing Service.

Is now really the time to buy Hilton Head real estate? Nationally, there have been many sources telling us now is a great time to invest in real estate. Media sources such as Fortune Magazine and The Wall Street Journal are pointing us in the direction that now is a the time to buy real estate. What better place to invest in than in Hilton Head Island real estate?

Earlier this year Jim Woods wrote an article for Market Watch, part of the Wall Street Journal’s digital network. In his article “Why your best investment is a house” he states  “One reason your best investment right now could be a home has to do with the relative upside of getting in on an asset class while it’s at the bottom versus buying into other asset classes that could be near a top. Consider for a moment the tremendous upside we’ve seen in stocks, precious metals and agricultural commodities over the past 12 months. If you’re a long-term investor looking to put money to work, now is not really the best time to get into any of these three asset classes. However, with home sales starting to improve, and with prices now possibly forming a bottom, real estate could well be the asset class that represents the best low-risk buying opportunity out there today.”
