sumter homes for sale: September 2010 Sumter SC Market Report - 10/07/10 02:51 PM
Market Summary Thru September 30, 2010 September had 74 residential properties close. An increase of 12 units over August 2010. Looking at the Monthly Units Closed chart, one might expect to see a peak in November as we did last year, but I would feel confident in saying we won't see that peak this year. That peak was generated with the end of the 2009 First Time Home Buyer Tax Credit at the end of November and then that was extended with a newer version that ended in having a house under contract in April 2010.

sumter homes for sale: Buyer's Agents, Yes They Should Stay in Contact! - 09/13/10 11:47 AM
First, I need to thank a real estate agent who will remain anonymous. This agent had a buyer and sold one of my listings. I was present for the home inspection as I didn't know if my seller was going to be home or not. I followed the home inspector and buyer around the property and listened to the comments and any issues that arose. Since the buyer and seller were both present I introduced them and they became fast friends. (Yes, I know this isn't the normal thing to happen, but it did.)Then it happened, one day I was working
