THE LAST CALL


FOR A LAUGH
THE HOLY CITY HERALD........AUGUST   2017
Hey HJP Peeps!

Long time no chat! It's been a busy summer and we have been taking care of 
business here  at  HJP....lots has been going on, lets catch up...

...As I'm sure you are aware,  Charleston is getting loads of  attention for being in the
path  of totality for the Solar Eclipse on Aug 21 (THIS MONDAY!!). There are many 
local events including an Eclipse Baseball Game at Joe Riley Park, a Total Eclipse 
of the Art at the Gibbes Museum, and an  all day program at the Children's Museum 
as well as a view party that is being held at MUSC Health Stadium on Daniel Island,
and an eclipse party at the Charleston Harbor Resort and Marina. Also, 
interestingly enough, the Citadel Mall is an official NASA viewing  location, who 
would have thunk it? 

...and... once again, WE ARE #1, Travel and Leisure Magazine has named 
Charleston "The best city in the US" for the 5th year in a row and and counting!! 
They also named us the 2nd best city in the World, no surprise to us of course, we 
love where we live and the secret is getting out, more and more folks are moving 
into town each and everyday, making it a great sellers market!! (wink wink, nudge 
nudge). Just a few more accolades to mention.. Southern Living magazine named 
Chucktown the #1 Best City in the South and Food and Wine magazine included 
the Holy City in their list of the 10 Most Exciting Food Cities in the World, for sure 
no surprise there, coming from a bonified foodie, I have to agree 100% with this 
one! 

... As I mentioned, Charleston's real estate market is still doing great! Year to Date
 we are up 10% in transactions and, I know I say it every year, but this year is 
looking to be the busiest year yet! Median prices are up a modest 4.3% to 
$247,000. Although several specific areas are up much more! There are a lot of 
great places with lots of different price points. Call me and I'll help you find the 
best place for you.  

...  The Economy and Job Market are great as well which is why the market is 
what it is. Contributing to this is Volvo, who is starting construction on their plant, 
west of Summerville and Goose Creek. There is even a new exit off of I-26 being 
built to help handle the influx of people coming to the area. Not to mention, 
Charleston's new name is Silicon Harbor thanks in part to all of the software and
IT businesses that have moved to town or that started here. In conclusion, 
Charleston is the place to be!! 

Let me know if you need any help selling or buying a property!  

Best, 
Hayden

New Hot Spots on Sullivan's 

Sullivan's Island has some new comers! 

Two new spots opened recently on the main street of Sullivan's,  Mex 1 and 450 Pizza Joint.  

I recently got a chance to check them both out,  on a random weekday lunch while looking for some tasty treats with Mr Pickles!
    First up, Mex 1 is located where Station 22 had been. There is a cool, surfer Mex-Cali vibe just like their West Ashley location. It is perfectly suited at this Sullivan's beach location.  
    I immediately staked my spot at the bar (like I like to do) and ordered the Buffalo Shrimp Taco with a Tall boy of Pacifico beer. I must say, a home run combo if there ever was one!  The outside porch was mostly full with a younger crowd that looked like they were taking a break from the beach to get a little refreshment with beer and snacks.   
    After catching up on some reading for work,  I chatted with the friendly bartender.  I mentioned that I was going to head to Home Team Barbecue to get a burger for desert, well he was able to convince me to try their version of a burger. The Hamburger Con Queso is of the two thin-burger patty style(of which I am a fan) and comes with guacamole, queso  cheese, cilantro-onion relish, lettuce and tomato.
    I did really enjoy it but I prefer a more plain style burger. Just a little melted American cheese and a house made pickle is just fine for me. Overall Mex 1 is a place I am very happy to put in the mix for summer playtime on Sullivan's Island. 
     After all that, I did make a stop at 450 Pizza Joint for a beer. I ended up sitting near a family that ordered a kid's burger, a pizza and spaghetti and meat balls.  All of the dishes looked great!  The pizza crust is of the thin New York style. They also have made-in-house ice cream for 'desert' desert.  I will be getting a pizza next time I visit and try not to get a dessert burger first...But no promises on the burger part !



Cheers,
Hayden


 


Charleston MLS Market Report
CHARLESTON, SC-
     How long can the residential real estate market go on like this? We are about two years into a national trend of dropping housing supply and increasing median sales prices. There are some regional variations to the story, but the shift to a predominantly seller's market is mostly complete. Multiple-offer situations over asking price are commonplace in many communities, and good homes are routinely off the market after a single day. It is evident that a favorable economy keeps hungry buyers in the chase......
