"We want to thank you for being such a great help in buying our house. We appreciate your expert guidance and straight-forwardness. It was also fun working with you. We hope you'll stop in every now and then to see what we're doing with the place and to drink some wine with us."

Keep in touch,

Diana & Andrew

"Many, many, many thanks for your stellar professionalism, unequaled ethical conduct and never-ending patience in seeing the deal thru to closing.  We are convinced that had you not been our buyers agent, we would have tabled our interest and ceased pursuing the purchase early in the process.  There really aren't words to convey how much we appreciate all that you've done, and how exceptional your handling of every phase of the process has been.  It's truly been our pleasure working with you."

Thank You,

Ken and Ann

"Just a note to thank you for all the help you are providing.  We especially appreciate your standing in for us and handling the various items that we would normally handle.  We know that there are probably many more items you are taking care of that we don't even know about.  We are deeply appreciative."

Myrtle Beach Condos for Sale

by The Jerry Pinkas Team

The real estate boom of the early 2000's has seen hundreds of small hotels disappear, only to be replaced by the grand resorts that are being built every day. Truthfully, very few hotels or motels can be found on the oceanfront in Myrtle Beach now. Fabulous resorts such as The Caribbean Resort, The Patricia Resort, The Anderson Ocean Club, Bay View Resort, and many other high-rises line the oceanfront now.

From the far north end in Little River, which borders North Carolina, to about 50 miles south in Garden City Beach, the Grand Strand offers thousands of condominiums to choose from.  Price is, of course, a consideration - with oceanfront condos and Intracoastal Waterway condos usually the more expensive.  If you're looking to buy a condo in Myrtle Beach that brings a rental income with it, you should probably search these types first. Having our agent’s expert advice can come in handy here. They have the knowledge to tell you which resorts have the best HOA fees, which resorts are popular amongst vacationers (who rent), and areas which will deliver the best Myrtle Beach experience.

Contact us for guidance before you make any decisions on condos of this type, as many resorts also have problems resulting from the number of foreclosures at present. Some that we recommend? Try Dunes Village, Anderson Ocean Club, and The Boardwalk in Myrtle Beach. In North Myrtle Beach we particularly like Baywatch Resort and Barefoot Resort on the Waterway.

Now, as never before, investing in Myrtle Beach condos and resort real estate may be one of the smartest moves for baby boomers or those that can afford to live or vacation here. This may be the last chance to take advantage of its low cost of living and low purchase prices before the market starts to rise again.

Myrtle Beach Real Estate has been more popular than ever in the last few years. With the Myrtle Beach Oceanfront condo explosion there are many people who bought properties with arm loans and interest only loans that are now adjusting to much higher interest rates.

Many buyers over estimated what the potential incomes would be and needed this projected income to support their purchase. As a result many of these beach condos have gone to foreclosure or will sell these Beach Front Condos at substantial discounts.

Foreclosures in Myrtle Beach are increasing. However this gives many buyers the opportunity to purchase Myrtle Beach Foreclosures and have a lot of equity. This time period won't last forever, as most of us have seen, Myrtle Beach Real Estate will eventually some back and prices will rise again.

Out of all of the Haunted Houses in South Carolina, Terror Under the Bridge is the one to go to! The warehouse was built in the early 1890’s and is located under the Main Street Bridge in downtown Conway, SC (right down the road from CCU).

Directions to Terror Under the Bridge: To get to Terror Under the Bridge, follow 501 North to Conway. Merge right to continue down 501. Do not merge left to go onto 544. When you go over the Main Street Bridge in Conway, take your first right.

Jerry Pinkas Real Estate Experts-Best on the Beach

by The Jerry Pinkas Team

What defines a successful company in any industry? Long term growth and economic expansion are two things that quickly come to mind. Is it about exposure? Or even profits? The truth is there are so many things that encompass success for a company. One of the hardest things for a business to achieve is sustainability during times where business is dwindling. Real estate in Myrtle Beach, like everywhere else in the United States, had taken a significant hit during the economic downturn. However, here at the Jerry Pinkas Real Estate Experts, business is still holding strong because of the valuable members that encompass the team, a strong marketing plan, and the will of the team to provide residents of the Grand Strand area with properties that they will enjoy for years.

            While no one can argue that we’re currently situated in a buyer’s market, the time to sell can also be beneficial. The home values in Myrtle Beach have fallen and as a result buyer’s are able to find great deals. Sellers on the other hand are able to unload these properties at an expedited rate since the prices are below what they were 5-6 years ago. Of course in most instances it means the sellers absorbing an opportunity cost, but could also allow them to find a new property that suites their needs better. We have an enormous amount of foreclosed and bank owned properties in Myrtle Beach that only few people know about. So what are you waiting for? The time to find your next dream home is now, while the great deals are still on the market!

How Buying Foreclosures in Myrtle Beach, SC can make you money

by The Jerry Pinkas Team

   What are you waiting for? Right now real estate in Myrtle Beach, SC there is an abundant amount of condos and homes that are in foreclosure. Whether you’re looking for your next dream home or vacation home, foreclosures in Myrtle Beach also present a lucrative option for some extra disposable income. How is this possible? Currently the housing market is geared for buyers, with prices never being lower in the history of the United States. Purchasing a property and renting it out for more than your low-mortgage payments creates a surplus of income, while still having your mortgage paid for. How many of you would like to own your own place down at the beach, while having someone else pay for it? I know that I would.

   When looking to purchase a foreclosed property in Myrtle Beach, it’s a good idea to hire a property inspector to put your mind at ease. If you don’t know any property inspector, you realtor can inform you of the right one to choose. Your next step is to check out the neighborhood that the property is in. You can start by simply driving around the neighborhood at different times of the day. Take note of the other properties in the area, the general condition of the area, kid and pet friendly, etc.  If/when you are working with the right Myrtle Beach real estate team; they have/will have already done this for you.

   Purchasing a Myrtle Beach foreclosure also might require you to do a little financing if you’re not going to pursue a cash deal. If you do find a lender willing to help you finance your loan, then it's a good idea to get pre-approval. Unless you plan to pay in cash, you will need a recent preapproval letter from a lender. Getting pre-approved for a home mortgage loan is the first step to getting the actual loan. When you get pre-approved for a mortgage loan, you are finding out how much money a particular lender is willing to lend you. With good credit, many banks will loan the full price of the foreclosure or more. Specifically keen to buyers is the fact that if the home is to be used as a rental, many banks will require only a 10% down payment.

   Buying a home that is foreclosure can be a long process, but remember that you don’t have to do this alone! The Jerry Pinkas Real Estate Experts are highly experience agents. The Jerry Pinkas Real Estate Experts are on your side and we work for you. The Jerry Pinkas Real Estate Team specializes on foreclosure in the Myrtle Beach Area. We can prove it just Google Us. Don’t miss on this great opportunity that will not last long. Contact us today at 843-839-9870.
