Columbia has state government, The University of South Carolina and Fort Jackson which help keep the Columbia, SC economy strong. Columbia SC real estate never got too hot or too cold, that is another reason for Columbia's strong economy. BusinessWeek ranked Columbia, SC 14th for the strongest metro economy in our nation. This is just another reason it is great to live in Columbia SC.
The Hardee's on the corner of College and Harden Streets in 5-Points is set to be demolished in 2010 making room for a brand new free standing Chick-Fil-A restaurant. The new Chick-Fil-A will be landscaped to match the look of the 5-Points streetscape. This will give a very high end and clean feel to the busy corner located across from Tripp's Cleaners. The Chick-Fil-A will offer indoor and outdoor dining for guests as well as a drive through service. The first 100 patrons of the Chick-Fil-A will get free food for a year! This is just another reason downtown Columbia SC is a great place to live.

I met with Tim from Pinpoint Home Inspections this morning at 464 Jackson Avenue in Keenan Terrace. This home is a brand new craftsman style bungalow that has all the custom features one would expect in a 300,000 dollar home. This home was listed for $169,900. The inspection went great and Tim said the builder went above what is required when building this home. For buyers looking to purchase Downtown Columbia homes there are many great options in Keenan Terrace.
There is a brand new bungalow style home being built down the street with 9 ft ceilings, granite counters, and ebony stained hardwoods. This home will have designer finishes and custom work throughout and will be offered for $135,000.

Last week it was announced that the 2009 first time home buyer tax credit could be used as a down payment. The next day all information about this new down payment method was removed from the HUD website. 100% financing for Columbia SC real estate came and went in the blink of an eye. All is not lost folks. We still have options. USDA provides 100% loans for rural areas and there is no mortgage insurance! USDA does have income criteria one must meet. Are you a veteran or the unmarried spouse of a deceased veteran? You may qualify for a 100% VA loan. Contact me if you wish to buy Columbia SC real estate and I will help point you in the right direction.
