A lot of people ask me where they can find the best homes in Charleston, and I'm happy to tell you that there are a lot of good options for you.

The Internet is a great place to start looking for homes. There are dozens of real estate websites, such as Zillow, Trulia, Realtor.com, etc. These websites are great starting points for your home search, but they don't always have the most reliable data put on them. Some of the listings are outdated, so a home that you're eyeing may actually have sold months ago. If a home is in good condition and priced correctly on Zillow, it's probably already been sold.

I have a great Internet tool to suggest to you, and it's called the Market Snapshot. We deliver you information about homes that you're interested in. So if you want a four bedroom, three bath, with a three car garage and a pool, we can alert you via email when a listing like that comes onto the market.

However, the downfall of the Internet is that it's not real. Sometimes what you see is not what you get, and that's why sometimes simply going out and looking at properties is the best thing that you can do. You can drive around and look at properties, but a better strategy is to hire a local real estate agent to show you homes.

I have access to some of the best homes in Charleston, and some of them aren't even on the market yet! If you search on my website (www.davefriedmantv.com) it's updated every fifteen minutes. You just need to go in and set your parameters (# of bedrooms, # of baths, square footage) and you will receive alerts when a similar home becomes available.

Because inventory is so low, we also have a 'coming soon' list of homes, and this allows you to escape the competition and find a good home very quickly.
