A Quick Note

This page is general information, not an appraisal and not legal, tax, or insurance advice. A valuation is my professional opinion of a likely sale price based on recent sales, and only a licensed appraiser produces an appraisal. I am a real estate professional, and my part is pricing your home to sell.

Your Myrtle Beach Home Value Depends on Its Zone

Your Myrtle Beach home value depends on something a zip-code estimate never sees: whether the property sits in a zone that allows rentals under 90 days. The city says districts beginning with R do not, except RMV, and that a property outside an allowed zone cannot be converted to that use. Two similar houses can draw different buyers because of it. Local to Coastal Realty confirms the zone, then builds a comparative market analysis from sales of properties that compete with yours.

What Else Moves Value Here

Who the buyer is. A buyer who will live in the property pays about 145.5 mills on a 4 percent assessment inside the city on Horry County's 2026 levies; a second-home or rental buyer pays about 254.6 mills on 6 percent. On $400,000 that is roughly $2,328 against $6,110 a year.

Flood, wind, and the building. Lenders require flood insurance on a federally backed loan for a building in a Special Flood Hazard Area, and buyers price premiums in. For a condo, the association's budget, reserves, and any special assessment weigh on value too.

Condition and location. Oceanfront or off, near the Boardwalk or The Market Common, updated or original, adjusted the way a buyer would.

Why the Tax Card Misleads

Horry County explains that a property's assessment does not change unless physical changes are made, a reassessment is implemented, or an assessable transfer of interest occurs. A property that has not sold in years can carry a tax value far from today's market, so I never price from it.

What I Need From You

Your address, updates and when they were done, any elevation certificate, current flood and wind premiums, rental history and your city business license if it is rented, anything that needs work, and your timeline. Then you choose: list now, fix a few things first, or wait. If you list, read selling your home in Myrtle Beach. Get in touch or call (336) 516-4136 for your number.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does zoning change what my Myrtle Beach home is worth?

It can change who will buy it. Only certain zones allow rentals under 90 days, and a property outside them cannot be converted to that use, according to the city.

Is my county tax value my sale price?

No. Horry County says an assessment does not change without physical changes, a reassessment, or an assessable transfer, so it can sit far from today's market.
