As 2011 comes to a close and 2012 rolls in, the newest trends are surfacing. The progression of buying farmland remains steady as crop prices reach a prime and timber prices continue to be on an upward climb in Southeast Georgia, when other parts of the country are still low, securing the investment of timberland in the southern region. However, the most recent shift in attention seems to be on investment properties. Two of our most recent listings have been bank owned investment properties and they are capturing the attention of buyers from all over. Ranging from Wyoming to Florida, Developers to Professional Athletes, we are receiving interest from all sorts. The phone rings numerous times a day with the sole interest being the two specific properties and we have been averaging one to two showings a week for them too. These are very positive numbers and we are pleased with the leads. Each of these properties have various opportunities and each offer unique advantages depending on their individual uses. Some real estate seekers are looking for a longterm investment, some short term, and some are even looking for a launch-pad into a new industry. Investment properties, recreational properties, farmland, timberland, waterfronts, mountain-views and most any southern land all have the opportunity to provide a solid return as shown in past performance, which enables buyers the chance to purchase with a sense of protection. All of this makes it more obvious that trends seem to be moving in a new direction, giving the illusion that buyers are seeing the light at the end of the tunnel where real estate is concerned. It’s safe to say that investing in land, regardless of it’s type, is the one of the better fads to follow. Jump on board and see the new attention grabber: view the Savannah River Preserve and Buffalo Creek Waterfront. Invest in what lasts!
