Ever wonder what’s REALLY happening in your local market?

A for sale signs goes up in your neighbor’s yard. Maybe you pick up a brochure from the box, check the real estate ads in the paper and occasionally even look properties up on the internet. There’s neighborhood talk, gossip, speculation about list prices, sold prices and property values. So…how much did the neighbor get for their home? How much can you sell your home for? How is the neighbor’s house different from yours?

If you are curious… give us a call, or drop us a line. We are happy to give market data to anyone, anytime. Until then, here’s a little basic information on our local market here in Aiken.
