Two homes, same street. One is brand new. One is a money pit. Here is why most buyers guess wrong.

It comes down to insurance. Over the years, South Carolina strengthened its coastal building code. A newer home is far more likely to qualify for wind mitigation insurance credits: roof tie-downs, impact-rated windows, proper elevation, and a continuous load path from the foundation to the roof. An older home was built to the code of its year, and matching those credits means expensive retrofits, if the home can be retrofitted at all.

Before you buy an older coastal home, ask two things: what will it cost to insure, and what would it cost to bring up to today's standard.

Want the list of features that lower a coastal insurance premium? Text the word INSURE to (803) 615-1972. Yours to use with any home, any builder.

After 30 years of building on the Grand Strand, here are the four questions every relocator should answer before they sign on a lot.

One. Sewer or septic.
Two. Clearing, fill, and grade.
Three. The architectural review board rules for that specific community.
Four. Easements and setbacks.

Each one can swing your build by tens of thousands of dollars. We answer them on every lot, for every client, before anyone signs anything.

Looking at a specific parcel in Murrells Inlet, Pawleys Island, Myrtle Beach, North Myrtle Beach, or Conway? Text the word LOT to (803) 615-1972 and we'll run the four-question checklist for that exact lot.
