The final numbers are in, and Harbor Club on Lake Oconee has once again experienced stellar residential sales at our Southern Living-Inspired Community. Despite 2020’s COVID-19 pandemic, or perhaps because of it, our real estate sales jumped 31.7% compared to 2019. It’s also the sixth year in a row that our award-winning community has attained a double-digit percentage increase in sales. Talk about unprecedented.
Due to the pandemic, Americans are buying more homes in exclusive resort communities (like Harbor Club.) We've certainly seen an unprecedented uptick in sales this past year. But, what's prompting so many people to buy in resort-style communities, especially during this era of COVID-19?
Whether you're a home buyer or a home seller, you're probably wondering what the market will be like in 2021. Remarkably, 2020 proved to be an excellent year in the world of real estate sales, even with the pandemic. But will that positive trend continue? Have no fear -- all indicators show that the 2021 housing market is far from being a bust. Here are some compelling reasons why the housing boom will continue into the new year.
Last week we showcased three of our most spectacular Patriot Builder home listings. This week, we have four more incredible homes to share. The first two are golf-front listings and the last two are one-level-living ranches that offer serene lake and wooded views. All are new, quality-built Patriot Builder homes.
Despite 2020 being one of the craziest years ever, there've been few negative impacts on real estate. Homebuyers continue to purchase properties at lightning speed, especially here at Harbor Club on Lake Oconee. Maybe it's due to our location only an hour away from Atlanta, or perhaps it's because we're on Georgia's second-largest lake. Having an award-winning, championship golf course is a big asset too -- as is being one of the few Southern Living-Inspired Communities in the Southeast.
