 Summary:

The real estate market in the North Charleston, SC is definitely a Buyer's Market, for every listing sold in the month of November there was than 1 new listings added.  The final selling price is at 96% of the listing price, which means home prices need to still come down to attract more buyers.  Based on the number of homes sold in November and the current active listings, there is over 7.5 months of inventory.

Note:  A well priced home will sell faster and closer to the listing price.

Buying Tip: Take advantage of low mortgage interest rates.  The low mortgage interest rates are due to the government buying the mortgages and trying to stimulate the economy.   The government will stop buying mortgages in March of 2010.  When mortgages rates start to go up, buying power will go down for home buyers.  Take advantage of the low rates now, before they are gone. 

Selling TIP: If you are selling your home or are considering selling, there is no better time than right now.  The main reason is because, the number of homes for sale (i.e. your competition) normally drops significantly.  Another reason is because, the home buyers looking right now are more serious (i.e. relocating due to job).  The last reason is because, the number homes listed for sale is expected to increase substantially in the months to come with another predicted wave of foreclosures and homes be listed for the spring market.

S.C. To Research and Test Wind Turbines, Could Bring Thousands of Jobs

11/24/09 12:03 am - reporter: Natalie Caula  - producer: Natalie Caula - ABC News 4 - North Charleston, SC - North Charleston’s navy base will soon become the world's first testing ground for large offshore wind turbines and the research will happen at Clemson University.

The almost $100 million project will help South Carolina lead the country in research for transforming wind energy to electricity and state lawmakers say that's only the beginning.

“The winds of change are blowing in South Carolina. Boeing announcement was huge. This could be as equally large as Boeing,” State Senator Larry Grooms said.

South Carolina beat several states out of the $45 million grant that will put South Carolina on the map.

The good news doesn't stop with the lowcountry leading the way in wind energy research, it also means extra jobs for the palmetto state.

“Immediately were expecting about 150 construction jobs starting in 2010 and in 2012 with the spin off jobs about 800 jobs being created,” North Charleston Mayor Keith Summey (web | news | bio) said.

That number could grow into the thousands as research and manufacturing of the turbines
Continue to spin.

“The U.S. Dept of energy is estimating that up to 20,000 jobs could be created in the Palmetto State as we become the worlds leading exporter of wind turbine manufacturing,” Grooms said.

It's Official $8,000 Homebuyers Tax Credit Extended.  Home Buyers in Goose Creek and in the Charleston SC area look to take advantage of Buyer's Market.

The Real Estate Market in Goose Creek and in the Charleston SC Area is definitely a Buyer's Market, a majority of the cities surrounding Charleston, SC (i.e. North Charleston, Goose CreekSummerville, Ladson, Mount Pleasant, and etc.) see the number of new listings exceeding the number listings every month (i.e. the supply of homes increasing).  With supply of homes for sale increasing in going to the traditionally slow part of the year for real estate, it makes a great time to buy.

$8,000 homebuyers tax credit extended

President Obama reups popular tax credit through June 2010 and expands it to include people with higher incomes and some who want to trade up into new homes.

Extending the First Time Home Buyers Tax Credit will benefit Home Buyers and Home Sellers in Goose Creek and in the Charleston SC Area
11/6/2009 at 9:57 AM - Regional Markets - Goose Creek, SC    0 Comments

Extending the First Time Home Buyers Tax Credit will benefit Home Buyers and Home Sellers in Goose Creek and in the Charleston SC Area

The extension of the First Time Home Buyer Tax Credit, will give first time home buyers time to repair credit or the time to purchase a short sale in the Goose Creek and in the Charleston, SC area.  The benefit for home sellers, will be the potential draw of home buyers looking to buy a second home or are looking to up size or down size from their current home.

The extension of the First Time Home Buyer Tax Credit overall, should help reduce the inventory of homes on the market.

Obama To Sign Bill Friday Extending Homebuyers Credit

AP, Thursday, 5 Nov 2009, 3:06 PM ET - The White House says President Barack Obama on Friday morning will sign a bill that expands a popular homebuyers tax credit and extends unemployment benefits.

Home sales
AP

Congress on Thursday completed work on the $24 billion economic package that seeks to help out the millions who have lost jobs and have been unable to rejoin the workforce. The White House announced Obama's intention to sign the bill shortly after Congress finished the legislation.

Under the measure, an $8,000 tax credit for first-time homebuyers would be extended for seven months and expanded with a $6,500 credit for some prospective homebuyers who already own homes.  

The House passed the bill on a 403-12 vote Thursday, a day after the Senate ended a monthlong stalemate with a 98-0 vote. With some 7,000 people exhausting unemployment benefits every day and the $8,000 tax credit for first-time homebuyers set to expire at the end of November, President Barack Obama is expected to quickly sign it into law.

The $24 billion package also contains tax credits aimed at struggling businesses.

The IRS says some 1.4 million people applied for the homebuyers credit through August, helping enliven the moribund housing market. The legislation would extend the program through June of next year, as long as the buyer signs a contract by the end of April. It also offers a $6,500 tax credit to those who have lived in their current residence at least five years.

The measure doubles the income ceiling for eligible individuals to $125,000. Homes must cost less than $800,000 to qualify.

The nearly 2 million who have exhausted their unemployment benefits or face termination of benefits, usually about $300 a week, before the end of the year would receive 14 weeks of additional benefits under the bill. The unemployed in those states where the jobless rate tops 8.5 percent would get six weeks on top of that.

House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer said the bill would also help the economy because the unemployed quickly spend their checks on living necessities. "We help people in very bad straits and we help our economy and help us all."

Boeing moving to the Charleston SC Area will help Spur and Speed up the Recovery of the local Real Estate Market
10/29/2009 at 12:21 PM - Regional Markets - Charleston, SC    0 Comments

Boeing moving to the Charleston SC Area will help Spur and Speed up the Recovery of the local Real Estate Market

Boeing bringing jobs to the area will help stabilize the economy and help spur and speed up the recovery of the local real estate market (i.e. Charleston, North Charleston, Goose Creek, Mount Pleasant, Summerville, and etc.).  This good news for homeowners looking to sell in the next couple of years, because this will give the market some time to reduce the number of homes on the market and allow home prices to go back up.  But if you are home buyer, right now is the best time to buy.  The supply of homes is exceeding the demand, low home prices and low interest rates, which means you have a tremendous buying power (i.e. Buy Your Dream Home).

Aviation giant expects to break ground on new assembly plant within the next few weeks

The Post and Courier
Thursday, October 29, 2009

North Charleston won the fiercely fought battle for a Boeing 787 aircraft assembly plant Wednesday, thrusting South Carolina onto the world stage of aircraft manufacturing.

The Boeing Co. will build the new line at its Charleston International Airport property instead of in Everett, Wash., the nation's aviation nerve center and longtime home of the company's commercial airplane business.

The decision was announced after state lawmakers wrapped up a two-day special session in which they approved a rich basket of financial incentives for Boeing valued at $450 million by state Sen. Hugh Leatherman, a Florence Republican who heads the Senate Finance Committee.

The aerospace giant would have to create at least 3,800 jobs and invest more than $750 million within seven years to take advantage of the various inducements.

Tim Coyle, vice president of Boeing Charleston, said the company plans to break ground on the 584,000-square-foot expansion near its existing factory within the next few weeks. Work on the first locally made 787 Dreamliner is expected to begin in 2011.

Boeing had said previously that its stormy relationship with the International Association of Machinists was a key factor in its decision to look beyond its highly unionized operation in Washington state. Last year, the union staged a damaging eight-week strike in the Seattle area that compounded the delays that have been dogging the 787 program for two years.

The company began taking a hard look at building the second line for its newest jet in North Charleston in August, meaning that the Dreamliner plant went from a dream to a reality in less than three months, said Senate President Pro Tem Glenn McConnell, R-Charleston.

It wasn't South Carolina's low unionization rate, the incentive deal or any other single factor that sold Boeing, McConnell and Leatherman said. Coyle agreed, saying Boeing considered the business environment, logistics and the infrastructure in North Charleston and Everett.
