Spring is here on Hilton Head Island and there are a lot of things going on in the real estate market. Here is a quick snapshot of what has happened during the first quarter of 2010 in the Hilton Head Island Real Estate market.
We have had 393 sales on Hilton Head Island from January 1, 2010 through March 31, 2010 (homes, lots and villas). Area sales are as follows:
Sea Pines Plantation – 41
Forest Beach - 55
Shipyard – 16
Wexford Plantation - 7
Long Cove Club – 3
Palmetto Dunes/Shelter Cove – 50

Port Royal Plantation – 4

During this same time period last year there were only 219 sales – so we have seen quite an increase in activity.
