Myrtle Beach Condos

The Myrtle Beach condo market runs from the Arcadia section of Myrtle Beach south to the Market Common District and even further toward Surfside off Bypass 17 such as The Villages at Queens Harbour. Most 2nd home condo owners are searching for either an oceanfront condo in Myrtle Beach or a golf course villa as their little piece of paradise. There are major advantages of buying a condo on the oceanfront or nearby or one within a golf course community. First of all the oceanfront condos are almost always sold furnished, they have rental history for potential investors and of course the beautiful Atlantic Ocean is right at your finger tips. The golf course villas are for the most part sold furnished, the living space is greater for the dollar, and most of the golf course communities also allow owners to lease their properties to vacationers when now in use. The Myrtle Beach condo market is booming because of the many golf courses we have and of course the coastline.

Myrtle Beach Oceanfront Condos -

Along the oceanfront in Myrtle Beach, buyers are met with the first decision whether they want the oceanfront condo resort packed with amenities or if they would like to purchase something a little more quiet in a low rise community like "A Place at the Beach". Both types of oceanfront condos have their advantages and disavantages. The low rise condos are usually more spacious per dollar spent, the commission fees for maintaining rentals is usually less and the furnishings are typically more home like. The negative of owning a low rise is of course the lack of amenities and the number the rental figures obtained from your management company are typically lower.

The oceanfront condo resorts are high rise concrete and steel constructed buildings typically with world class amenities and onsite rental departments. These type of condos typically have to be updated more frequently because they are leased so much. The advantages of owning these are that in the past they saw greater appreciation, they rent more frequent to vacationers and of course the views and amenities of the oceanfront resort are much better. The disadvantage would be that many of the condos feel like hotel rooms in size, the HOA fees are typically higher and the fees for rentals from the onsite company are higher.
