Myrtle Beach Real Estate Market

There’s good news for buyers interested in buying Myrtle Beach real estate, prices of Myrtle Beach homes and Myrtle Beach condos continue to drop. The median price of Myrtle Beach homes (single-family homes) dropped 3 percent in May to $159,923. Condo prices continued their drastice reductions with a drop of 15% in May (compared to May 2010.) All of this news adds up to a “mixed bag” for sellers, but the news for buyers remains the same: It’s a great time to buy Myrtle Beach real estate!

One of my good friends had worked from her home as an interior designer for the past several years.  Her husband was in the banking industry and as she started to watch that industry get a little shaky and at the same time had one son headed quickly towards college and another one following shortly behind, she decided to go back to the local technical college and get her nursing degree.  She will graduate in 2 months and already has a job at the local hospital.  As irony would have it, her husband currently finds himself without a job… impeccable timing.  Becoming a nurse is not a stretch for her. She has been caring for her children and her family for the past several years and she is excited about creating a long-lasting career in this new field of work.

For me, I had been in and around real estate my whole adult life.  I started in the commercial side and spent the last several years working from home in real estate marketing and advertising. I was a mom first and foremost and I wanted to be around while my children were growing up. I loved having my kids and their friends crawling all over my house, feeding them all and spending time getting to know them.  My husband and I used to joke about the freedom we would have when they finally moved out… we would just live on a sailboat, going from port to port. My own parents used to say the same thing… only with them it was an RV.  Let me assure you though, every major family event and holiday brings all my brothers and their families back to my Mom and Dad’s house. I think we would all be lost without that home base. It’s comforting and it has allowed us all to roam freely around the world knowing that home was waiting for us whenever we returned… it hasn’t always been the same house, but wherever my parent’s house was at that point in time, it was our “home.”  I think the same will be true for us. I want my children to live their dreams but feel secure knowing that home is waiting for them.  I want visits from my kids and their college friends and visits from my grandkids some day.

Now I’m not naïve enough to think that buying  real estate is not a  business decision. Especially Myrtle Beach real estate. On the commercial side, it’s almost entirely a business decision. But on the residential side, it’s also an emotional decision. And whether you’re buying a home for a family of 1 or a family of 16, home is important. I know this. I live it. And that’s why I’m so excited about my new career. Helping people find homes is important and I can’t imagine a more fulfilling job! If you’re interested in buying Myrtle Beach real estate, give me a call: 843-685-0441. I’d love to help!
