Our family even went in the winter between Christmas and New Years, and it was great.

I am a Broker in SC (as well as 6 other states–KY, TN, NC, IL, AL, FL) and if you would be interested in buying land , a lot, a residence, a second home or vacation or investment property, in any of these states …I’ll take you there.

South Carolina is one of my favorite states and I am presently listing a condo on the ocean at Kiawah Island, SC that has been totally renovated !  I am also working on a $1.1 million dollar beach house sale at Seabrook Island, SC..on the ocean.  Come go with me to the “low country”  in SC.  Its fabulous!

Rental homes can be the IDEAL investment in today’s market because they offer a much higher rate of return than alternatives without the volatility of ups and downs in the stock market.

IDEAL serves as an acronym to identify the advantages of rental properties:

• Income from the monthly rent contributes to paying the expenses and a return on the investment
• Depreciation is a non-cash deduction that contributes a tax shelter
• Equity grows monthly as the mortgage amortizes due to some of each payment being applied to the principal
• Appreciation is achieved as the value of the property goes up
• Leverage can increase the return on investment by using borrowed funds to control a larger asset
