TOP Mount Pleasant SC Real Estate Team Sells Another Waterfront Lot!

The Alan Donald Real Estate Team Sells Another Waterfront Lot in Mount Pleasant, SC

The Alan Donald Real Estate Team at Keller Williams Realty closed another sale for out-of-town buyers in the Park West subdivision.  The Alan Donald Real Estate Team is a top sales team in the Mount Pleasant real estate market, where they are well known for their specialized services for out-of-town buyers moving to the Charleston, SC area.

Mount Pleasant, SC, March 5, 2014. --(PR.com)-- Using their knowledge of the area, thorough communication skills, professional experience and established systems, the Alan Donald Real Estate Team has been able to successfully conclude the sale of 2124 Beckenham Drive in Park West. Park West is a large planned subdivision in Mount Pleasant, SC, that features a variety of residential townhomes, condominiums, single family homes, luxury waterfront homes and residential lots. For an estimate of the current market value of any home in Park West visit: www.MountPleasantHomeValues.info.

“Our team invests a substantial amount of time working with out-of-town buyers, retirees (mostly from Northern states) and buyers relocating for work. Initially we provide them with local area market knowledge and neighborhood information to supplement (and put in perspective) the abundant information available online. Once we have found the right property, we assist them in negotiating favorable terms, and help them complete the real estate transaction successfully, using a team of local, trusted and professional service providers” said Alan Donald, CEO of The Alan Donald Real Estate Team. The sale of 2124 Beckenham Drive in Park West adds to the team’s track record as a top sales team in the Mount Pleasant, SC real estate market.

The Alan Donald Real Estate Team performs an initial Buyer Consultation to get know the needs, requirements, parameters and restrictions of the clients. “We really want to  understand our clients’ motivations, personalities, lifestyle and hobbies, so we can help them narrow down their search to specific areas of interest, and provide them with viable options that will fit” said Meghan Bowes, the team’s Marketing Manager.

The waterfront lot at 2124 Beckenham was purchased by a couple from Baltimore, MD, who had originally purchased a condo in Downtown Charleston for their daughter (who attends the College of Charleston) and loved the area so much that they decided to move permanently here. The original list price for the 0.60-acre waterfront lot was $294,900 and the sale closed in 22 days at $270,000, an excellent price for a waterfront lot in the hot Mount Pleasant, SC real estate market. The transaction ran smoothly thanks to the team’s experience, preparation, market knowledge and state-of-the-art systems.  The buyers intend to build their dream waterfront, custom-built home on this lot.

Many out-of-town buyers don’t have the luxury or time to constantly travel to and from Charleston when relocating to the area.  The Alan Donald Real Estate Team is comprised of skilled real estate professionals who specialize in working with out-of-town buyers and have unique systems that help them purchase a home in a seamless fashion. The team is focused on delivering results to their clients.

“Working as a team we are able to easily help our clients become familiar with the area, get the most for their money and feel confident throughout the entire home buying process. We use technology to streamline the process of signing, reviewing and receiving documents and we really work to make the process as easy as possible for our out-of-town clients,” said Alan Donald. The team uses e-signatures, Facetime, Evernote and other online and mobile apps to show properties to out-of-town clients and complete transactions without them having to be present in person, so their clients are always informed and never miss out on any market opportunities in the competitive Mount Pleasant, SC real estate market.
