Housing Supply Overview

November 2019
According to the U.S. Commerce Department, new housing permits rose 5%
in October to a new 12-year high of 1.46 million units. Lawrence Yun, the
National Association of REALTORS® chief economist, the latest figures
“tremendously good news for the housing sector.” While increasing new
construction activity is helpful, it is widely believed that construction activity
is still below what is needed to provide adequate housing supply. For the 12-
month period spanning December 2018 through November 2019, Pending
Sales in the Hilton Head region were up 7.7 percent overall. The price range
with the largest gain in sales was the $225,001 to $375,000 range, where
they increased 14.1 percent.
The overall Median Sales Price was up 3.1 percent to $323,112. The property
type with the largest price gain was the Condos / Villas segment, where
prices increased 3.9 percent to $233,750. The price range that tended to sell
the quickest was the $100,001 to $225,000 range at 111 days; the price
range that tended to sell the slowest was the $650,001 and Above range at
