Hampton Lake Real Estate Sales Continue
May 14 2010

Bluffton, SC -- Defying downward national real estate sales trends, Hampton Lake, an award-winning lakefront community here, continues to see strong real estate sales through the first four months of 2010.
 
Gerrit Albert, president of the 900-acre community announced 48 sales during the first four months of 2010, including homesites, single-family homes and attached townhomes – significantly exceeding targeted goals and nearly doubling the transactions over the same period in 2009.

Albert said the spring sales surge, which peeked in April, “exceeded our predictions and are not only a strong indicator of the quality of our Hampton Lake community and our housing choices, but also the effectiveness of our aggressive sales and marketing initiatives in what has certainly been an adverse economy for the real estate industry.”
Albert noted that in addition to sales, Hampton Lake’s year-to-year prospect leads have also increased in number and overall quality. Participants in the community’s visitation program which allows potential buyers to preview Hampton Lake’s lifestyle with a two-night stay has contributed to the substantial increase. Called “Sneak-a-Peek” the program hosted 70 participants through April.

“We are confident that as the economy begins to turn, Hampton Lake, which was named ‘Best Community in America’ for 2009 by The National Association of Homebuilders, “is well positioned to take advantage of increased consumer confidence because of our solid pipeline of prospects and an excellent selection of new, affordable and energy efficient homes called the “LifeSmart ™ Series”, said Albert.
