Many thoughts come to mind when you pose this question. It really comes down to your motivation for purchasing this investment property. Rental property, vacation rentals, long term rentals, second home??? Johns Island has a vast array of opportunities available to fit your needs. I personally believe, for a long term hold, Johns Island is a great investment opportunity.

Johns Island is very close to Downtown Charleston and for the most part is vastly undeveloped. Because of this, Johns Island has created great opportunities for investors and developers alike to put their twist on the future growth south of the city. As the gap between Kiawah Island and Charleston are developed with great communities and planned shopping centers, you will likely see your future investment grow.

Please contact me with any technical questions and fell free to view many of the opportunities available on Johns Island at the link below.

I would agree with the last post that the quality of construction at Mira Vista is of high and the building materials used afford a quiet surrounding. Due to the proximity to downtown, MUSC and the College of Charleston, paired with the afford ability of these condos, many young professionals choose to live in Mira Vista. This creates for a fun environment, which from time to time can be a little lounder than other communities.

Another great condo complex to check out is the Regatta. Located just around the corner from Mira Vista on James Island. These condos range from 1-3 bedrooms and are deck out with amenities for the price point.

Check out the link below to view a multitude of condos available on James Island. Goodluck and contact me with any questions.

Waterfront properties in the Charleston Area are becoming a rare commodity and with that comes a price. Growth and sprawl to the outlying suburban areas have drawn great interests in the areas both North and South of the Charleston Peninsula, especially along the waterfront, and it is unlikely that you will see great variation in pricepoints in the months and/or years to come. Waterfront property is considered a luxury amenity and with the large influx of new money consumers, investors, retirement homes and second homes; it has led to significant increases in prices over the last few years. Of course, you will have your investor driven consumer that needs to sell, resulting in lower price points, but realistically, these are not the comps you want to buy a sound investment on.

We are Charleston, SC; one of the greatest cities in America. This city affords you all of arts, cuisine, lifestyle, coastal charm, history, architecture, shopping, cosmopolitan flare one could ask for. This is a desirable place to live and visit. That itself should be the confirmation you need to make your next investment here in the Charleston Area.

Their are many oportunities available at fair market value in the areas you have expressed interests. If you have any questions regarding specific properties that you have found through your searches online or have any specifc technical questions, please contact me via the link below.
