As you can see with the number of sold listings versus total listings, the Myrtle Beach market is a Buyers' Market. Currently, we have over a two year supply of single family homes to sell. However, when you compare the sold price versus the list price, homes are selling for an average of 95% of the listings price. This percentage is slightly higher than in months past.

The condo and townhouse category includes condos, townhouses, 1/2 duplexes and new construction projects.

The condo market is similar to the single family home market in that we currently have a high level of inventory. Our sale price versus list price has fallen sightly. Sellers are receiving, on average, 93.9% of their listing price. More condos sold in March 2008 than did in the previous months.
