Myrtle Beach Market Statistics

As summer draws to a close, multiple factors and trends are competing to define the direction of the real estate market.  While locally we are seeing steady, stable numbers, national trends and factors unique to our market are competing to define the direction of the real estate market.

After the Federal Reserve lowered its benchmark interest rate on July 31, 30-year mortgage rates continued to decline, approaching all-time lows last seen in 2016. Yet most experts agree these reductions are unlikely to bring sufficient relief, at least in the short term, for first-time home buyers. The lack of affordable inventory and the persistence of historically high housing prices continue to affect the housing market, leading to lower-than-expected existing home sales
at the national level.

The Myrtle Beach market, however, is heavily driven by those who are retiring and moving to the area, as well as those purchasing second homes and investment properties. This, along with our desirable location, create year-round market stability.

Now is the time to stay diligent in understanding the market and monitoring inventory, if you are looking to purchase. Likewise, sellers are still experiencing a rise in home prices and a decrease in overall days on the market.

Our recent market analysis can help you understand if now is the time for your next move and our Team is here to help with every step in the process!

The month-to-month glance is updated after the close of each month to allow time for all transactions to be reported. We suggest using this as well as our Annual Report in conjunction with our complimentary market analysis to determine if the time is right for you to buy or sell your Myrtle Beach area property. Contact our client manager If you are interested in more details on how to list your property and/or to find your next dream home!
