More and more in today’s world we get jaded with the world around us. In the world of real estate, we hear about prices, commissions and sold signs, but it is rare when we truly get a moment to enjoy and appreciate what is the American Dream. This Dream was alive and well many years ago, the dream of home ownership, to have your own part of the greatest country on Earth. We recently helped to make that dream happen.

Pat Higgins was a lady who decided to retire by the beach and in the warm sun of Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. She like a lot of people, only had the dream of home ownership but never really thought it was a possibility. Her quote in a recent Sun News article sums it up perfectly. “I came down here with the intention of renting because I rented my whole life,” she said. “I thought it would never be possible for me to own a house and here I am. … I was able to buy for about the same price I could rent for and I thought why not.” It was so nice, being a part of a wonderful experience. So many times, we get caught up in our work, and daily routine it is nice when we get to sit back and truly enjoy our profession of making the American Dream come true. Visit our Web site at www.myrtlebeachrealestatetoday.com/ to see all the advantages of buying in Myrtle Beach including low taxes, golf, sunny weather, and what else but the beach.

Myrtle Beach is one of the top 100 fastest growing areas in the nation. Baby boomers are seeking placees to retire where taxes are low; there are many activities such as golf and boating and the beach, and with taxes as low as only $600.00 a year on a home costing $160,000, why not choose to live in Myrtle Beach, SC?

In the past year, cash buyers have more than doubled and topped 50% for many months. Many buyers are either selling investment properties or their primary home in other places and moving to Myrtle Beach, SC.

Despite the economy nationwide, many more people are still selling homes up North and headed south to the beach. This will really help Myrtle Beach to be even more stable as investment properties are being dominated and overtaken by primary residents. Last year in Builder magazine the Grand Strand Myrtle Beach area was named one of the top 15 most stable markets in the nation… it only looks brighter for the future!

Myrtle Beach, SC -RETIREMENT DESTINATION- is a place people choose- not a place they are relocated to because of a job. According to the President of the Myrtle Beach Chamber of Commerce Brad Dean” The Grand Strand is positioned for explosive growth.” When looking for the perfect retirement area and home, visit www.myrtlebeachrealestatetoday.com/.
