Now's the time to buy Charleston South Carolina real estate! We have a full blown buyers market with better choices and lower pricing and the extended $8000 tax incentive for first time buyers. Here is the government website that describes the extended and expanded tax credit. New Tax Incentive It now also includes homeowners who have been in their home for at least 5 years and who want to buy a new residence. We have a great market for homes for sale in South Carolina. I'm finding some really great Charleston real estate deals for my home buyers with the increased inventory and hot incentives. The industry growth in the Charleston area while slowed slightly continues to create jobs. The aerospace giant "The Boeing Company" just announced that they will build a second 584,000 square foot assembly plant here in North Charleston that will create at least 3,800 new jobs and invest $750 million within seven years. Boeing is expected to attract at least 43 top-tier suppliers. We have a booming future in Charleston. Check Out: Boeing Charleston There are some really good incentives and pricing on the existing new construction inventory and some really great deals on the resales. Goose Creek and Summerville real estate properties attracts many of the first time buyers because of price range. There are foreclosures that sometimes can save a smart shopper thousands. In my opinion we will have an "open window" for qualified buyers to make the deal of a lifetime in early 2010.

Home Inspections >If It Is Broken Fix It
Most houses have a few "little" problems, like leaking faucets, a stove burner that won't light, or electrical outlets with too much "spark". These defects may not seem very important--unless your house is about to go on the market.
We rarely have difficulty getting sellers to agree to paint, replace worn carpets or plant a few flowers in the front yard. These kinds of repairs obviously increase the overall appeal of the property. However, if any of the major systems in your home need maintenance, it is also prudent to have the necessary repairs made. Have your furnace, central air-conditioning system, plumbing and wiring checked as part of your pre-marketing efforts. The best rule is--if it's broken, fix it!
The purchase agreement requires that a house be conveyed with all the systems in working order, and most buyers will bring in a home inspector to identify any potential problems. During the period of time between the "meeting of the minds" and the removal of the inspection contingencies, the buyers are the most vulnerable to an attack of buyer's remorse. This is also the time when anything that hasn't been repaired could become a major issue.
