"My husband and I found ourselves in a very complex situation; we needed to sell our home and purchase another at the same time. This was an extremely stressful position to be in. Andre' Cilliers put our minds at ease and not only listed and sold our home at the listing price, but also found us our ideal home. Andre' coordinated the closings to happen simultaneously which allowed us and our newborn to move in to our new home problem free. The closings were executed flawlessly, with Andre' keeping us updated and confident. I wouldn't consider working with any other Realtor.

Hello and Thank You for visiting my site, the objective of which is to provide you with all the information you may need to discover, learn about and buy real estate on Hilton Head Island, in booming Bluffton or across the Low Country of South Carolina.

Whether you are looking for a home, villa, condo, farm, land, lot or investment property I will help you before, during and after the purchase process. As a real estate Broker, an Accredited Buyer's Representative and a Certified Residential Specialist, I will actively represent you and protect your interests. I will help you find the best property and then we will negotiate the very best deal for you.
2007 is a very exciting time for the Hilton Head Area real estate market. Never have so many buying opportunities been available to the well educated Buyer.
Over the past few years prices have risen consistently and sometimes dramatically. Then in late 2005, along with most of the country the rate of sales slowed down. This trend continued until December 2006, with the result that we start 2007 with more inventory and more buying options than ever before. During 2006 prices have softened and in some cases dropped. There are great buys available as some sellers who bought beyond their means are now stretched to their limit and are forced to sell their properties in a hurry.
If you have ever thought of buying a home in this area, now is the time. All indications are that our market has bottomed or is very close to the bottom. In real estate the golden rule is "Location, Location, Location". If you have followed the Hilton Head Area market for any time you will agree that the second rule here is, "Timing, Timing, Timing". Do not be tempted to wait for the market to drop even further because when the market turns, and it will prices may jump without warning. It has happened before! Do not be one of the many who has missed out on a great buy in the past, hoping that prices will come down only to find that months later prices had jumped again. Now is the time to start looking, to find out what is available and make your move. Interest rates are still low and inventory is plentiful.
I am not saying that prices may not drop a touch more, but what I am saying and what I know is that there is a huge pent up demand which is only stalled for the moment. We are just entering the retirement years for Baby Boomers who are looking for retirement homes, second homes, vacation homes or investment properties. The stock market has made many Boomers and Post Boomers lots of money and they are looking for solid long term investments. Hilton Head real estate is just that investment.
Despite Hurricane Katrina, many thousands of people still want to move to the coast. Research shows that the SE Coast of South Carolina and specifically Beaufort County has been relatively safe from hurricanes over the past 200 years. Some experts have explained that we are blessed by our location, tucked away North of Savannah, GA and South of Charleston, SC. Tides, ocean currents, wind patterns and the ocean shelf off our coastline all contribute to our unique situation.
Hilton Head Island offers amenities and facilities unparalleled on the East Coast, at prices below other Resort Communities throughout the USA. The foresight of our City founders and administrators to protect the Island's resources from over development, to harness growth and to manage the style of growth have produced a "Paradise".
For a buyer of property on and around Hilton Head Island the time is right. But you need to work with a Realtor® who will guide and protect you. You need a Realtor ®who is committed to you for the long term, someone who puts your interests first, not someone with a vested interest in a particular Plantation, or development, or type of property.
