Myrtle Beach Real Estate

In an article entitled, Myrtle Beach Remains a Strong Golf & Real Estate Choice, on WorldGolf.com, William K Wolfrum writes that Myrtle Beach has become the ultimate destination for traveling golfers throughout the globe. This statement is well supported by the rapid and strong appreciation in golf communities like Tidewater Plantation/The Bluffs around the Strand. According to Wolfrum, Americans purchased about one million vacation homes and over one third cited golf as a deciding factor in their purchase. In fact, in this same article, Tidewater Golf Club Plantation is featured as one course that helps make Myrtle Beach shine! So it should come as no surprise to its residents that such praise and popularity have coupled to produce one of the most sought after and esteemed communities on the beach. As a resident, you are probably familiar with the dramatic increase in the price per square foot of the custom homes found in Tidewater Plantation/The Bluffs; however, if you aren't, we have included the following graph for your review.

As you can see, there has been a significant increase in the average price per square foot of homes from 2005 to 2006. In fact, from the close of the Second Quarter 2005 through the Second Quarter 2006, the average price per square foot increased by 23.9%! While this increase is noteworthy, what might reveal more about Tidewater Plantation's strength is that, while the rest of the country began experiencing a real estate slump in the Third Quarter of 2005, Tidewater Plantation/The Bluffs continue to appreciate throughout 2006. In addition, even in this nationwide 'leveling off' of real estate prices, homes in Tidewater Plantation/The Bluffs are not taking any longer to sell.
