Buyer traffic is increasing.
My wife and I were extremely busy with buyers this weekend. For us Saturday & Sunday resulted in four offers being written and as of today (Tuesday) two ratified contracts and possibly another two before the week is over. We even encountered a bidding war on a home that has been on the market for over a year. Hallelujah! The local market is picking up again and I won’t have to sell my Grandmother to the highest bidder on Ebay in order to pay the electric bill.
While I was out showing homes on Saturday I discovered a hidden gem located in the center of Georgetown. True, the location is a good half hour drive from the boardwalk but at this distance from the beach you don’t have to worry about tidal waves. The name of the community is the Village of Cinderberry The Village of Cinderberry is a 50 and over community of approximately 170 homes and as of this writing (Feb 10 2009) about 80% occupied. New construction homes are still available but if you are looking for the real bargains take a look at the re-sales. The median re-sale price in the community is $244,900 but currently the least expensive home is a real steal at $176,900. 6 Bayberry Street is a 1425 SF 2BR/2BA home with a single car garage in a beautifully maintained 50+ adult community with a very nice community center featuring an indoor pool, athletic center and huge auditorium for community events. Pre-owned three bedroom models are available with asking prices starting around $234,900 Yard maintenance, community center upkeep, cable tv and internet service are all covered under the HOA fees.
