If you have been looking at Summerville SC real estate listings online, you are probably excited by the prospect of surveying the many types of residences that are featured on the Internet. However, before you start looking further at homes in the Summerville SC communities, you need to establish a relationship with a real estate agent in order to ensure you buy the right home for you and your family.
Making a Selection
When you are looking at Summerville SC real estate listings online, you also need to factor in a number of criteria to narrow your search. For example, featured homes are generally listed as active (A), option pending (OP), pending – continue to show (PS) and pending (P). You can look at only active listings or choose to look at all that are available.
Types of Real Estate
Narrowing your search, when looking at Summerville SC real estate listings, also involves selecting the types of properties that you are specifically interested in buying. Types of real estate include single-family residences, townhomes, mid and high-rise condominiums, residential lots and land, multi-family homes, country properties, and acreage.
Compiling a Short List of Properties
The list price, number of baths, square footage, number of stories, year built, lot size, and number of garages, are other considerations to think about when looking at single family houses. Short-list the choices further by selecting the Summerville SC neighborhoods that fit your preferences and price range.
Viewing Properties

You can search the Summerville SC metropolitan area by directional zones as well. Homes are showcased, via the Multiple Listing Services (MLS) on the Northeast, East, Southeast and South sides of the city.
Types of New Construction

New construction is defined by homes that have been recently completed, or are totally brand new, homes that are completed, never been lived in, or homes that are unfinished and still under construction.
A Time-Consuming Process
Looking at properties can become time-consuming process, even when you are searching online. That is why it is wise to establish a relationship with a real estate agent before you decide to review the real estate marketplace. Because Summerville SC covers such a broad area, utilizing the services of an agent is essential if you want to make the right selection. Narrow down your listings as described above so you can more easily work with an agent and make an informed decision. Contact Sea Turtle Properties for more information.
