David, Just Looking in 91324

condo prices in the area are still falling. What would be the bottom price for a 700 sq ft condo?

Asked Mon Sep 3 2007, 06:11 by David  -  29566  -  Market Conditions  -  5 answers
Shawn Bowman answered:
The answer is simple to state but hard to find. The bottom price is whatever the seller is willing to give up in order to get out of what they are in. Since Katrina, HOA dues have been increasing, which is killing cashflow. As an investor myself in Litlle River, condos are falling in price because owners just want out. Let's do not even talk about the numerous assessments that are being performed as well. Do your homework. A good price may have HOA leans and assessments attached to it and most owners cashed out in '03-'05, who bought at well below market prices. Most everyone else is upside down or retired. Check out the foreclosure market, since the banks are willing to take a lose instead of the homeowner. - Fri Jun 20 2008, 12:53

How are rentals doing in Little River, SC?

Asked Tue Oct 16 2007, 07:57 by psmith162  -  Little River  -  Market Conditions  -  6 answers
Shawn Bowman answered:
You just need to check out the supply and demand of the local real estate market in Little River. Supply is high and demand is low. I have seen several home owners stop marketing their property and rent it out to stop the foreclosure process or wait out the slow market. Sellers would gladly take on a tennant while their property sits on or off the market and sometimes at a discounted rate. Just ask a local propety management company if any sellers are in need of a tennant. It is a lot easier than forclosure. - Fri Jun 20 2008, 12:45

Shawn Bowman answered:
Jireh, I would recommend that you take a look at construction opportunities in Brunswick County, located just south of Wilmington. We have been one of the State's fastest growing counties in the last few years and even though the real estate market is slow, our local builders continue to build. We still have affordable housing available and your taxes are significantly cheaper in Brunswick than New Hanover. I network with several local builders in the area and they are always searching for long-term constuctors. If you need any additional information, just e-mail your request. info@brokershawn.com. Hope this helps.

Escaping the racing culture...is this possible; or has it infiltrated everywhere?

Asked Mon Jun 16 2008, 21:16 by Nubbs  -  North Carolina  -  Quality of Life  -  5 answers
Shawn Bowman answered:
How would you like to hear crashing waves on the beach instead of the most exciting part of a NASCAR race. Brunswick County has been one of the fastest growing areas in NC and they are not bringing their checkered flags with them. Most relocating residence are retiring along the peacful Carolina coast to enjoy a slow paced lifestyle without the stress and pressure of the metro areas. Help is on the way and you do not have move far, far away. As the commercial says, "experience the state you are in." Come visit the pristine beaches of Sunset Beach, Ocean Isle Beach and Holden Beach to escape the fast-paced, NASCAR craze. Hope this helps. http://www.brokershawn.com - Fri Jun 20 2008, 12:05
Janet Bliton, Home Seller in Jacksonville

IS IT BETTER TO SELL HOUSE VACANT OR STAGED?

Asked Mon Jun 2 2008, 13:34 by Janet Bliton  -  All locations  -  Curb Appeal  -  13 answers
Shawn Bowman answered:
The current market is extremly competitive in locating and keeping buyers interested in your property. Since the majority of buyers beign their search online, you need to make sure that what they see is appealing. If a property has beautiful funishing and great decor, you have made your property emotional to buyers. Also, only 3-5% of buyers can envision where their furnishing will go. Home Staging helps the buyer see where their belongs may be located or not located. In today's market, it is not that expensive to hire a home stager or orgainzer. - Fri Jun 20 2008, 11:51
