In Sumter, South Carolina real estate we saw home sales fall from 88 properties in July to 76 in August 2011.  The number of properties pending in Sumter was lower at the end of July vs June and the decrease in closings was expected based upon those numbers.  The number of homes under contract or pending at the end of August was down from the July numbers, so I would expect to see the number of closed units for September to be … (0 comments)

sumter real estate market: Sumter SC October 2010 Market Update - 11/12/10 04:35 AM
September 2010 Sumter, SC Market Report     Market Summary Thru October 31, 2010    
October saw a decrease in the number of units sold to 51 down 23 units from September.  Interest rates are truly at historical lows, but buyers seem to be staying out of the market due to the economy and I think some apprehension about the elections.     The Year To Date Closings for 2010 continues to lag behind 2009 numbers and October contributed to that gap increasing.  I expect to see this gap remain as we don't foresee a tax credit coming back for … (0 comments)

sumter real estate market: September 2010 Sumter SC Market Report - 10/07/10 07:51 AM
  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.  There are … (1 comments)

Saturday Maddie and I swung by Jones Chevrolet to participate in Sumter Safe Kids.  This program is a national program that is presented locally by many sponsors including The Tuomey Foundation.  The events vary from Bike Rodeos where children without bike helmets received one for participating to Car Seat Inspections.  And yes, appropriate car seats are available for all children required by law to use one!  I don’t know how many car seats and booster seats the volunteers place in vehicles over the course of the inspection, but I have seen many installed.

sumter real estate market: April 2010 Real Estate Market Update Sumter, SC - 05/17/10 06:57 AM
Market Summary Thru April 30, 2010  
 
April brought a flurry of buyer activity into the Sumter Market.  The good news is for many potential home buyers the tax credit may not have ended on April 30th!  If a buyer is military or a Federal Government employee who was out of the country for part of 2008 or 2009, they have up to April 2011 to use the tax credit!!!!  Since many Air Force and Army personnel fit this category, they may still be able to use the tax credit to purchase a home!   In April Sumter county had … (1 comments)
