When it comes to predicting the future, our crystal ball is in the shop! Having said that, we have a number of useful tools that help us anticipate the trajectory of a given real estate market. Most notable of those tools, is the pending home index. Pending sales represent properties that are under contract and are scheduled to close in the future. In an encouraging sign that the positive momentum of 2010 is carrying over, January 2011 pending home sales in the Lowcountry were UP 33.5% over January 2010 pending home sales! The market is moving!
Per the photo above, the new Lowcountry cottage series by Breckenridge Builders is coming along wonderfully. We anticipate the first two homes being completed this April! The quality of these homes reflects a tremendous commitment to authenticity and a careful attention to detail. Prices will range from $429K to $489K for the first four homes overlooking Arrowhead Lake.
On any given Saturday, life at Oldfield can take on a number of different forms. One constant, however, is an intimate connection to the Lowcountry’s natural beauty. In that tradition, this past Saturday we had the pleasure of spending the morning on the water with one of our River Pro’s from Oldfield’s Outfitter’s Center. As per usual, our experience was nothing short of spectacular.
An afternoon in downtown Bluffton along the May River included wonderful food, endearing design, great art, and more than a few reminders of why the Lowcountry is so special…
With Spring right around the corner, we’d encourage you to schedule a Discover Oldfield weekend soon. Our guests rave about the experience as it can be a relaxing, low key opportunity to determine whether or not the Oldfield lifestyle is the right fit for you.
