What Is Your North Myrtle Beach Home Worth?

A real number from someone who knows the comps, not an automated guess.

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 North Myrtle Beach Home Value, Section by Section

Your North Myrtle Beach home value depends on where it sits: Cherry Grove, Windy Hill, Ocean Drive, or Crescent Beach, oceanfront or a few rows back, on the marsh or not. Local to Coastal Realty works from an office here and builds a comparative market analysis from sales in your section first, what is under contract now, and what sat.

What Moves Value Here

Rental performance. If the property is rented, buyers who plan to keep renting it weigh its booking history. They also know the city requires a business license for every rental and that licenses do not transfer at a sale.

Who the buyer is. A buyer who will live in the property pays about 112.1 mills on a 4 percent assessment on Horry County's 2026 levies; a second-home buyer pays about 221.2 mills on 6 percent. On $400,000 that is roughly $1,794 against $5,309 a year, and it shapes what each can pay.

Flood, wind, and condition. Lenders require flood insurance on a federally backed loan for a building in a Special Flood Hazard Area, and buyers price premiums in. Roofs, windows, and storm upgrades count, 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 house 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 future bookings 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 North Myrtle Beach. Get in touch or call (336) 516-4136 for your number.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does my rental history affect my value?

For buyers who plan to keep renting, it can. Have your booking history ready, and know that the city's rental license does not transfer at a sale.

Is my county tax value what my home is worth?

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.

Is the valuation free?

Yes, with no obligation to list.
