So you’re sitting in another part of the country right now. And you’re wondering, so what’s a house go for down there. What do you think? I’ll tell you what I think…
(What kind of an accent was that even supposed to be?!)
Hi. My name is Lance MacMillan with mango homes powered by Keller Williams, Myrtle beach. And today I’m gonna be showing you guys an average home, so you can answer that question. What’s an average home go for in Myrtle beach. So this house is actually a little bigger than normal. Our average median home price in the past 12 months. And I’m talking single family residents. I’m not lumping condos in with that. Our average for the past 12 months is $356,000. This one’s coming in at $388,000, but there’s a big reason why it is big. It is absolutely huge on the inside. It has a mother-in-law suite that you could legit play soccer in. It’s like, wow. During the tour, we’ll go over all the vital stats for the home, as well as the neighborhood and then afterwards, I’ll go over all the auxiliary costs like HOA and what that includes taxes. I know that’s a big thing for a lot of people.Â
So this home is in a place called clear pond. Clear pond is a plan development off of 5 0 1, which is the main highway in and out of Myrtle beach. It’s like the main north south road. If you will coming in and out of Myrtle beach, that makes it central to pretty much every place that you’d want to go. If you wanna learn more about the clear pond development, you can go to mango homes.com. The link for that’s gonna be in the description below. You can register for a free account there. And with that free account, you can look at schools. You can look at shopping, you can get drive times between clear pond and pretty much anywhere else. You want to go. Average square footage, sale information homes for sale. It’s literally tied to my MLS. So it’s own most like me being there, except that you could do it in the privacy of your own home. Go ahead and register. And with that, let’s go to clear pond.
(Home tour!)
And as you can see, they are still building. There are two builders that are still building inside of clear pond. Clear pond is about half built out, which means that if you wanted to get a new home in there, you could. Now I promised that we would talk about the auxiliary costs for living here and the taxes and that kind of stuff. This is a natural gas community. So you will have a gas bill, but that’ll help you save under your electricity. Makes sense. There is an HOA. The HOA is $95 per month, and that includes two pools, uh, fitness center. There’s a playground. There’s a big clubhouse with the fireplace in there for you to host events at if you need to, you just sign up for it. Uh, there’s all the nature, sidewalks, ponds, walking paths, all the stuff that’s tip ago for a nice plan development.
As far as taxes taxes here at the beach, aren’t bad at all. If this home was assessed at $388,000, the selling price, the taxes would be $3,144 per year. That comes up to $262 per month. Now, if you’re over 65 years old, there is a $50,000 tax break that you get that comes off the assessed value of the house and drops your taxes annually. If you’re gonna rent this house out, the assessed rate is 6% versus 4%, which basically means your taxes would go up by 50%. I hope that helps you hope you have a good idea of what an average or at least in this case, little bit better than average home is here in Myrtle beach. If you got any questions, leave them in the comments below and remember whether you’re buying or selling go mango!!
