New Real Estate in Charleston & New Construction Listings

Charleston new construction sees the highest demand in our local market. Because it sells so easily, many builders don't include their listings on the MLS (meaning they don't show up on any websites). Also, sometimes new home builders only list properties as a spec when they have a permit in place. In these cases, they usually have more inventory available where you can build from the ground up and choose all of your colors and finishes. Charleston, SC has such a low supply of homes for sale right now, so new construction is a good route to consider. Whether you're looking for a newly finished move-in ready home, a site that's already under construction with 2-4 months still to go, or a proposed construction home with a 5 month plus build time, we can help!

With the current new home boom in Charleston, buyers will find a lot of options depending on price and location. The best way to make sure you're seeing all of your options is to call or contact us describing what you're looking for so that we can send you everything available.

When buying new construction, it's important to have your own representation versus using the on-site sales agent (usually working at the community's model home). Here's why:

• On-site agents know their builder's product very well but typically don't know new construction options outside their neighborhood. In other words, they can't give unbiased comparisons between new neighborhoods. If long term value and resale are important to you, it's good to consider all your options and hear both pros and cons for various communities.
• On-site agents work directly for the builder, so it's difficult to negotiate pricing and mitigate problems that arise when it's only the builder and his agent involved. As you can imagine, this can become one-sided when a situation only involves you, the builder, and his agent.
• Working with the builder's agent does not save the buyer money. If you don't have your own agent, the building company keeps the designated commission. In other words, it doesn't mean a lower price for you.

New construction can be a rewarding and profitable investment because it tends to appreciate well in Charleston. This is partly because builders price homes to sell quickly in order to move inventory and make money. Often with new homes, we see the appraised value considerably higher than the contract price.
