Hilton Head Island Condo FAQ

Thinking about buying a condo at the beach? Great! There are a few things you need to know about condos before you purchase. Not investment advice.

Which part of Hilton Head?

This is going to be a personal preference question, but I would focus on: are you primarily a boater, a beach goer, a golfer, a tennis player, a pickleball player, or all of the above? Secondly, do you care about or want to live behind a gate?

Why are you buying the condo?

Are you buying the home as a primary or second home? Are you planning to rent the home out?

Have you ever purchased a condo before?

If not, ask your agent about the rules and regulations of the condo. Ask him or her to explain the benefits as potential risks associated with this type of purchase. Purchasing a condo requires you to closely evaluate the the property owners association's, rules and regulations, litigation and assessment risks and capital improvement projects. Lenders may want to know if the property is warrantable.

Read, read, and then read the rules again.

You are going to have to follow the rules of the road when you purchase a condo. You need to make sure that you understand and agree with the rules prior to purchasing as you will be required to follow them after the purchase.
