Myrtle Beach Condos for Sale

Condos in Myrtle Beach SC

Where a condo sits matters as much as its price, and Myrtle Beach condos fall into a handful of very different markets.

Oceanfront and ocean view. About 840 Myrtle Beach condos for sale are directly on the ocean, and roughly 170 more are ocean view or second row. That is more than half the market. They range from studio efficiencies in the older resort towers, some under $100,000, to three- and four-bedroom residences past $1 million. Every oceanfront building is on the Myrtle Beach oceanfront condos page, grouped by area.

Kingston Plantation and Shore Drive. The north end of Myrtle Beach holds the gated oceanfront towers and villas at Kingston Plantation and the Arcadian Shores buildings along Shore Drive, where most of the city’s luxury condos are.

Grande Dunes. Grande Dunes condos run from golf-view villas with private garages to the gated Ocean Club towers, where residences sell from over $1 million.

Golf and lake condos. About 90 condos for sale sit on a golf course and about 100 on a lake, most of them in Carolina Forest and along the bypass, and most between $100,000 and $300,000. They are the year-round side of the market, and many are covered on the Carolina Forest page.

The Market Common. About 30 condos and townhomes are for sale across the district, with the widest price range of any inland area. It starts with the 1958 single-story homes at Seagate Village around $200,000 and runs up through the village townhomes in the $400,000s to Market View, where three-story townhomes with porches on every level and elevator options list over $1 million — the only non-oceanfront condos in the Myrtle Beach area above that mark. See the Market Common townhomes and condos guide for all nine communities.

New construction. New condo buildings are listed separately on Myrtle Beach new construction condos. Looking further north? See North Myrtle Beach Condos for Sale.

What Each Price Range Buys

Myrtle Beach has been a popular vacation spot for decades, yet few people know about the beautiful neighborhoods available to residents. Condos in Myrtle Beach cater to numerous lifestyles across multiple price points. You'll find condo prices start under $100,000, mostly studios and one bedrooms in the oceanfront resort towers, and increase to over $1 million for a condo the size of a home with amazing Oceanfront Views.

There are usually about 1,850 condos for sale in Myrtle Beach SC, and the market is bottom-heavy. About 160 list under $100,000, and more than half of those are oceanfront efficiencies in the older resort towers. The biggest band by far is $100,000 to $200,000, with about 750 condos: one- and two-bedroom resort units, and the golf and lake condos in Carolina Forest and along the bypass. From $200,000 to $300,000 there are about 500, mostly two- and three-bedroom golf-course and gated-community condos and the better oceanfront one-bedrooms. Above $300,000 the count drops fast: about 200 between $300,000 and $400,000, 90 in the $400,000s, and roughly 120 from $500,000 to $1 million, which is where the Market Common townhomes, Grande Dunes, and the larger oceanfront units at Kingston Plantation sit. Fewer than 20 Myrtle Beach condominiums list above $1 million, nearly all at Margate Tower, Vista del Mar, the newest oceanfront buildings and Market View at the Market Common.

The top of the condo market is a short list of buildings rather than a price band. Units in Vista del Mar and The Pointe in Grande Dunes, Maisons Sur Mer and Island Vista on the oceanfront, and the Margate, Brighton, Royale Palms and North Hampton towers at Kingston Plantation start around $500,000, and their larger residences run from $750,000 past $1 million. Those are the buildings that carry the Luxury tag on the Oceanfront Condos | Beachfront Condos page, and they are what a buyer with a seven-figure budget is actually choosing between.

Residents in exciting Myrtle Beach enjoy year round warm weather, low cost of living, and the beautiful coastal scenery. Myrtle Beach's expanded infrastructure, picturesque oceanside setting, and low cost of living have combined to produce something magical: an affordable resort community.

What to Check Before You Buy a Condo

Price is only part of the picture with a condo. Three things matter as much as the number on the listing:

• Association fees — these vary enormously between buildings and cover different things. An oceanfront tower with a pool complex, elevators and insurance costs considerably more per month than a low-rise inland building.
• Rental rules — some buildings allow nightly vacation rentals, some allow long-term only, and some prohibit renting altogether. If income matters to you, confirm this before making an offer.
• Financing — not every condo building is approved for every loan type, and lenders treat low-priced units and high rental-ratio buildings differently. Worth checking early with your loan officer.

Condos are also assessed for property tax at 4% as a primary residence or 6% as a second home, the same as a house — see Horry County Property Tax.
