A problem many people have is finding a residential condo in Myrtle Beach South Carolina to purchase and live in. It is arguably one of the hardest things to search for on the internet. If you do a search for Myrtle Beach condos for sale you can find all kinds of condos for sale, but what you are looking for is a condo generally used by the owner as a primary residence.
This is what we wrote this guide to help you avoid the pitfalls that are costly. We have helped many clients realize there dream and move to Myrtle Beach. But one of the problems is finding a good condo to live in full time when 87% of the condos in the Myrtle Beach area are set up as a commercial vacation rental condos. This is not the type of property you what to live in full time. These average condo buildings have a commercial hotel feal. These buildings also have too much hustle and bustle, slow elevators, no assigned parking, and are located in areas not conveniently located close to grocery stores, restaurants, doctors' offices, post offices, and dentists. Your needs and wants are different. It's not like you will be there for just a week, you will be living in the condo full time.
After helping thousands of customers we have found there is a common number of things you really want to consider when buying a condo. So we put together a priority checklist for purchasing a residential condo in Myrtle Beach. These are amenities that should come standard with condo residences.
Your search for residential condos and apartments for sale in Myrtle Beach should not leave you nervous or uneasy. Its a wonderfully fun and exciting time as you plan this next chapter of your life. There are many luxurious condo buildings and different areas of the beach to consider. Some areas of Myrtle Beach are more commercial like the downtown area and other areas are more quite like the cabana section or golden mile of the beach. In recent years new construction booms have brought many luxury condominiums for sale in Myrtle Beach SC. But these don't always make for the best oceanfront residence if it's located in a rental building. Some buildings have a mix of rentals and owners who live in there unit full time. A few of the condo buildings with a mix of rentals and full-time residents are Ocean Forest Plaza, Regency Towers, Southwind, Maisons Sur Mer, Ocean Blue, Savoy, Brigadune, Vista Del Mar and in North Myrtle Beach buildings like Xanadu. Also, there is a residential only floor with a private elevator for owners who live at the Margate Tower. With the many buildings and complexes to consider in Myrtle Beach let The Jerry Pinkas Real Estate Team show you all the options available.
When you move, you may choose to live in a beautiful beach location. The size of the condo you want to live in may change once you see what you can get for the money. Consider the size house you are currently moving from. You won't have to maintain as much as you once did since the homes owners association will take care of all the exterior maintenance. Things like grounds keeping, lawn maintenance, pool services, and common area maintenance are taken care of by the condo association. Once you start looking at all the condos and apartments listed for sale in Myrtle Beach, you may consider downsizing as well. The 'living small' lifestyle is a trend that has grown in recent years as more and more people downsize. We have seen people give up their large house in another state in order to live in 1 bedroom condo directly on the beach. Of course, we have 1, 2 3, 4,5 bedroom residential condos as well. When living on the beach or near the beach, square footage is always at a premium. Many people realize they aren't making beachfront land anymore. The price and value are always higher when you get close to the water. The price per square foot is also higher. The lifestyle in Myrtle Beach is much different than one at a home further inland or in another state. You aren't cooped up and hibernating during the winter months. With the warm weather, you are out and about enjoying the many festivals, shows, restaurants, and shopping. This beach lifestyle also doesn't require you to own as much stuff either. This means living a more simple and less cluttered life. When you think about downsizing think about the priorities that were once important to you, and will no longer become the important things. You won't require the same amount of living space as the big home you may be moving out of. You may spend more time on your private balcony overlooking the ocean. You may spend more time reading a book by the pool or you may be playing golf at one of the 85 golf courses on the Grand Strand. Whatever it is you like to do, you probably will be spending more time enjoying all that the area has to offer.
