I was visiting with some clients who were in the process of moving back to upstate New York to be closer to their children.  They had been living on Hilton Head for over 20 years.  They told me that they had rented a truck and that they had gotten such a great deal; it was only $200 and normally a truck like that would cost $800.  I had to think about that for a moment and they went on to say that most people are leaving New York and driving the trucks from there, rather than driving the trucks back there.  Because of this, they gave them a very good deal because they needed to get the truck back to New York. 

This again is simple supply and demand – as it relates to any commodity. 

If you are buying on Hilton Head Island you are in a great position – there is a lot of supply and some great deals available.
