Commercial Real Estate and Businesses for Sale in Bluffton
Bluffton commercial property for sale or lease is posted on LoopNet, Crexi and CommercialCafe, and businesses for sale are on BizBuySell and BizQuest. Each lets you filter by Bluffton and by property or business type, and each listing carries the asking price; for a business, the sellers also post cash flow. Listings change often, so check the date on each one.
Zoning. The Town’s Unified Development Ordinance is Chapter 23 of its Code of Ordinances, and Article 4 sets the zoning districts. A listing may name a district, but whether your use is allowed is a question for the Town’s Planning and Zoning office, which can put the answer in writing. Old Town sits in the Bluffton Historic District, many parcels are inside a planned unit development with its own terms, and flood zones apply to a lot of the town, so ask about each before you sign.
Taxes and licenses. Beaufort County assesses commercial property at 6 percent of its appraised value, against 4 percent for an owner-occupied primary home that has applied for it, and it revalues all real property every five years and after a sale or new construction. The Beaufort County Assessor’s number is (843) 255-2400. A business physically inside the town limits needs a Town of Bluffton business license, so a buyer of a business there applies for one in their own name. The Town’s license office is (843) 706-4501. The CPAs on the accountants page list tax work for buyers and sellers, and the attorneys handle contracts and closings.
