As most investors are aware,  Real Estate values are to be found across the board in America at this time.  If you are considering a relocation or retirement to Myrtle Beach in the next few years,  now is the time to purchase.  Why?

1. Over the next 8 months real estate values are sure to be a great bargain.
2. Myrtle Beach Barefoot Resort homeowners are currently renting their condos for an average gross of $11,000.00 per three bedroom condo.
3. If you wait 2 years or more until retirement to purchase,  prices will likely appreciate tens of thousands of extra dollars.  The ideal time to buy is now while the market is soft.

Why Barefoot Resort ?

Barefoot Resort is a 2300 acre total resort complex that includes:

• Oceanfront Beach services
• 64 shops and restaurants onsite at Barefoot Landing,
• 4 of America's best golf courses
• World Class Villas, Retirement homes, and Luxury condos.
• Barefoot Marina
• Barefoot Resort Golf Training center

This beautiful lowcountry resort will welcome you home once you retire and the rental income received while you are still working will help offset your monthly mortgage costs.

Barefoot Resort is the number one resort in the Myrtle Beach area.  No other resort property compares in the variety of activities or the quality of the entire resort concept.  "This is our number one rental resort," said Jamie Northrup of Myrtle Beach Condos Direct.

Myrtle Beach Condos announced today its intentions of picking up over 20 additional condos at Kingston Plantation over the next year.  Mark McDandel, a local Myrtle Beach Real estate developer stated, "This is an excellent time for quality Myrtle Beach condo properties to make a move." "The sales market is very soft,  and properties, like Myrtle Beach Condos LLC, that have proven their ability to market and manage effectively will see more home owners coming their way.

"Myrtle Beach Condos is a small,  but quality minded compay," said David Hucks, travel writer for the corporation. "Management is only interested in adding 2, 3, and 4 bedroom premium Myrtle Beach oceanfront condos." "Kingston Plantation Oceanfront Condos are a natural fit for inventory with Myrtle Beach Condos.  Their customer base is all upscale and Kingston Plantation was built in a quality minded way."

With that said,  Myrtle Beach Condos will still be very choosy in picking its managed properites at Kingston Plantation.  "Myrtle Beach Condos does not want to over run the entire resort," Hucks added. "They just want to work with a few quality Kingston Condos and quality Kingston Condo owners.

Myrtle Beach Condos announced today its intentions of adding 35 new Barefoot Resort 3 bedroom condos to its inventory before February of 2008.    Myrtle Beach Condos, LLC now carries a large inventory of Barefoot Resort Condos and Barefoot Yacht Club Villas at the Barefoot Resort location.

"These Myrtle Beach condos are very popular among tourists who take an annual Myrtle Beach vacation," said David Hucks,  a local resident and staff writer for Myrtle Beach condos.  "With Alligator Adventure, Alabama Theatre,  Greg Norman's Gillle, 4 Barefoot Resort Golf courses, and our Barefoot Beachfront services all right onsite,  there really is no other Myrtle Beach resort that compares to Barefoot Resort in the entire Myrtle Beach Oceanfront or off the ocean area.

The inventory being added by Myrtle Beach condos are individually owned Barefoot Resort condos that included 3 bedroom, 3 bath and 3 bedroom, 2 bath villas and condos. 

Myrtle Beach Condos averaged over a 96% occupancy in these particular resort condos over the past Summer 2007.  These Myrtle Beach condo rentals were among the most popular of all inventory carried by Myrtle Beach condos on the entire Myrtle Beach coast.

About the Author

David Hucks is the decendant of Able Hucks,  who moved to the Myrtle Beach area from Surrey Virginia in 1768.  The Hucks family originally came to America from England on a land grant from the King.  The grant was in Surrey, Virginia and the family first moved there in 1633.  The Hucks family was among the earliest American settlers.

In the 1770's,  like most South Carolinians,  the Hucks family was sympathetic to the King in the revolutionary war.  English sympathizers were called Torries.  Some English sympathizers were not received well after the War ended,  but most were well received by their neighbors.

David's family has lived on the Myrtle Beach coast,  largely in a town just west called Conway, S.C. for over seven generations.  In 1980,  David was recognized as one of South Carolina's most noted young writers.  He has written several features on the history of Myrtle Beach and the peoples of Horry County.

Today,  David lives in Myrtle Beach, S.C. with his wife and two children.  He is a staff writer for Myrtle Beach Condos, LLC and a noted writer for several other local travel sites.   His private family archives and oral traditions record the history of the greater Myrtle Beach area for over 240 years.

Myrtle Beach Condos and the Myrtle Beach condo industry will certainly be included in the national fallout that is our current home mortgage lending scare.

Over 53% of all Oceanfront condo rental rooms in the Myrtle Beach area are each privately owned by individual investors.  Many of these investments were made during the past 5 years as baby boomers looked to real estate as a lucrative alternative to investing in the stock market.

Unfortunately,  many of the one bedroom and two bedroom oceanfront condo mortgages were made by subprime lenders like Countrywide Mortgage.  These investors put little money down and were dependant upon rental income to cover the cost of their monthly mortgage.

The worst possible scenario of over building, a nervous banking industry, and 2006 Oceanfront property insurance rate increases that have tripled have new buyers scared away and many current investors barely holding on.  Most of the Oceanfront construction over the past 14 months were larger 3 bedroom condos or just off the ocean beach homes.  Barefoot Landing alone has developed thousands of more affordable rental condos that are from 3 bedroom to 4 bedroom condos built by national builder Centex Homes.

When off the Ocean rentals (at resorts that are willing to shuttle guests free of charge to the Oceanfront) compete with Oceanfront rentals,  vacation rental prices begin to spiral downward as more and more inventory is added to the marketplace.  Couple this with more condos for sale introduced into the marketplace and the individual condo owner carrying a subprime mortgage finds himself or herself in an untenable long term position.

Unfortunately,  Myrtle Beach will see its fair share of foreclosures in the next 14 months.  Expectations are that these will largely be Oceanfront 1 bedroom and 2 bedroom condos that were institutionally lent as adjustable rate mortgages.

Only time will tell the overall impact this will have on an industry that is completely dependant on tourism.  Larger developers including Centex Homes, Beezer Homes, and Portrait Homes have all but halted new construction in the area.

With a projected 22 million baby boomer retirees headed to the area in the next 10 years,  perhaps these vacation rental investments will be taken at a discount by retirees who are looking for a new Oceanfront living address.

With the onset of May,  everyone in Myrtle Beach, SC is thinking about one thing... Myrtle Beach Bike Week.

Every year this time, Myrtle Beach streets are  filled with Harley Davidson motorcycles and people looking for a good time.  The noise at this time of year is decidedly different.

Many Myrtle Beach Hotels and Condos are already filled with reservations for these dates.

Myrtle Beach Condos Direct is pleased that the Harley bike riders choose to visit our fine city.

Myrtle Beach Condos Direct announced today that it was increasing its inventory at the Barefoot Yacht Club Villas. 

Barefoot Resort Yacht Club Villas feature 2400 square foot three bedroom/three bath condos and 2700 square foot four bedroom/four bath condos.  What makes these Myrtle Beach Villas so desireable are the onsite ammenities.  Barefoot Landing is onsite with over 150 area shops and attractions,  including the new Ron Jon Surf Shop, Alabama Theatre and Alligator Adventure.

Barefoot Resort also features four of the best Myrtle Beach golf courses designed by Love, Fazio, Norman, and Dye.

The condos at Barefoot Resort sleep 10 adults in luxury and style.

Myrtle Beach Condos Direct hopes to pick up between 5 to 8 additional Barefoot condos in the next few weeks as much of the condos for rent now are being sold out.  Myrtle Beach vacations for this Summer for Barefoot Resort ended up being much stronger than anticipated.  Possibly because of the closing of the Myrtle Beach  Pavilion and the lack of another attraction until Summer 2008.  Hard Rock park will come on board in 2008,  but this Summer, Barefoot Landing will most certainly be Myrtle Beach, S.C.'s most popular attraction by far.

Call Jamie Northrup to reserve one of these luxury condos,  or reserve online.

Myrtle Beach Condos Direct reported just last week about the new Hard Rock Park attraction that will open on Highway 501 and George Bishop parkway next April or May 2008.  With the more than 1/2 billion dollar investment in Myrtle Beach, SC, the question that concerns many business owners and investors surround traffic and infrastucture.

Can Myrtle Beach support the crowds that are sure to come once the new Hard Rock Park opens?  Highway 22, Highway 501, and Highway 17 at Coastal Grande Mall are sure to be in gridlock each day as the theme park opens and closes.

With the addition of the new Myrtle Beach Market complex,  $1 billion is being invested in the Myrtle Beach area in the next 12 months,  and it is certain that the roads currently in place have not had to support such high profile venues as these.

Myrtle Beach Hotels are surely glad to see the investments as it can only increase traffic and occupancy into what has been a declining industry.  Locals and tourists however do expect traffic flow to be well managed and organized.

We will all have to see how this turns out next April or May.

Myrtle Beach Condos Direct reported on Sunday, April 22nd, that a surprising number of bikers were spotted on the South end of Myrtle Beach, SC in and around Murrells Inlet.

While it is not odd to see some bikers during this time of the year,  the numbers were suprisingly large.  Obviously, not nearly as large as Myrtle Beach Bike week, which runs from mothers day until the week before Labor Day, but the numbers were larger than we had historically seen for late April.

While some Myrtle Beach Condo owners do not rent to bikers,  most Myrtle Beach hotels do and the weekend business this time of a year really helps fill those few rooms that are left unrented.

Myrtle Beach Bikers that do come down in April and May largely stay just over 3 days and make a long weekend of it,  while Myrtle Beach bike week bikers tend to stay from 7 to 10 days.  Harley week and Atlantic Beach Bike Fest bike weekend are really large, well planned, and coordinated events.

Myrtle Beach is home to two terrific bike weeks that are obvioulsy very popular.

Myrtle Beach Condos Direct reported that Hard Rock Park backstage opened on April 18th to a packed house.  With police escorts at all major traffic lights the crowd was standing room only.

The first event,  which was largely by invitation,  drew a who's who from owners of Myrtle Beach Hotels and Myrtle Beach Hotel employees.  Many tourists on Spring Myrtle Beach Vacations were also in attendance.

The Backstage tour gives a video experiential feeling of what it is like to ride the new Led Zeppelin, The ride, Roller Coaster.

This Roller Coaster ride will be a main Myrtle Beach attraction when Hard Rock Park opens next April or May 2008.  The Myrtle Beach roller coaster ride does spills, twists, and dives,  while passengers are blasted by the Led Zeppelin hit, "Whole lotta love".

"I can hear the guitar slide now." "this will be one heck of a ride," said Brad Comb,  a Myrtle Beach area local.

The Hard Rock Park Backstage tour continues throughout the remainder of this year.  Ask your Myrtle Beach Hotel for directions or visit www.hardrockpark.com .

Economic forecasters with the State of South Carolina and Coastal Carolina University are predicting North Myrtle Beach condo rent for the Summer of 2007 to be flat or below the 2006 numbers.

With the absence of the Myrtle Beach Pavilion theme park and no new attraction to take its place, forecasters are predicting an off year.

North Myrtle Beach, SC has grown tremendously in the past few years,  especially at Barefoot Resort,  with its addition of thousands of new condo rental properties.  Barefoot Landing condos are now in almost an equal proportion to those rented in Windy Hill beach.  The overdevelopment has not caused a decrease in the real estate value of the rental properties,  but has caused the rental income to be well below what homeowners expected when they made their purchase.

Myrtle Beach condos are off as a whole and Myrtle Beach Hotels are well off by as much as 26% in occupancy.  To make matters worse,  many Myrtle Beach hotels are now deeply discounting stays that run from Mondays to Wednesdays which will have a great impact on revenues and profits.  Some forecasters are predicting Myrtle Beach hotel revenue to be down as much as 19% under 2006 gross sales.  While largely,  the older and more unkept Myrtle Beach hotels are off the most,  discounting is affecting the Myrtle Beach condo industry as well as the hotels across the grand strand.

Adding to this are the soon completion of several new highrise Myrtle Beach condominiums on the Oceanfront that will certainly add to supply.  Included in these are The North Beach property being built by Scalise Realty, the redevelopment of the Anderson Inn by the Anderson family ,  and the entire renovation of Sea Mist Resort by the Ammons family.

Myrtle Beach Condos Direct reported yesterday that Hard Rock Park,  scheduled to open in April 2008, will be adding a Roller Coaster attraction called Led Zeppelin - the ride.

We've partnered with the most iconic hard rock band of all time to create a truly unique and exciting experience that will serve as one of our signature attractions," said Steven Goodwin, CEO of Hard Rock Park.  "Our relationship with Led Zeppelin is just one strong example of the support and authenticity Hard Rock Park is receiving from the rock community," added Goodwin.

This new Myrtle Beach attraction  will ascend over 150 feet into the sky and feature a high fidelity on-board audio system that rockets the  Led Zeppelin's hit single "Whole Lotta Love" into each passenger's ear, creating an unprecedented sensory experience for roller coaster enthusiasts.

"I can't wait to climb aboard." said Robbie Lane,  a Myrtle Beach, SC local.  Roller coaster designers Bolliger & Mabillard of Switzerland were hired by Hard Rock Park to design and manufacture Led Zeppelin- the ride.   The ride shares name brand recognition just as the Aerosmith Disney ride in Orlando, Florida.

The roller coaster's layout starts with a straight drop into a vertical loop, followed by a double inversion cobra roll, zero-G roll, vertical loop and a corkscrew. Three helixes are also mixed into the second half of the ride.

If you are planning a 2007 Myrtle Beach vacation and want a preview of Led Zeppelin - The Ride, ask your Myrtle Beach Hotel for directions to Hard Rock Park.  Once there,  the Hard Rock Park Backstage Tour in Myrtle Beach, SC. will begin showing  April 18, 2007.  The Backstage Tour will feature a model of the Bolliger & Mabillard manufactured ride and brief computer graphic simulator with binaural sounds that creates a life-like sensory experience in the preview.

Admission to the Backstage Tour is free so make sure to drop by George Bishop Parkway in Myrtle Beach, SC to check it out.  For more information about Hard Rock Park click this link.

Myrtle Beach Condos for rent in Barefoot Resort has grown by 6% in South Carolina because of the completion of Clearwater Bay, Heron Bay, and Egret Run.  These three bedroom/2 bath Myrtle Beach condos complement the existing Havens, Tanglewood, and Edgewater Condos that are already onsite.

Myrtle Beach Condos Direct property manager,  Jamie Northrup, indicated that she was investigating adding the newest three complexes at Barefoot Resort into the Myrtle Beach Condos Direct inventory,  but as of this date had not contacted any of the new home owners.

These luxury Barefoot Resort Condos are among the finest in Myrtle Beach SC and do show a strong rental history.

"Barefoot Resort Townhomes and Barefoot Resort Villas are among our best rental properties," Northrup said.

With the competition fierce for Resort Rental companies in Myrtle Beach,  it is good to see new, quality developments like Barefoot Resort continuing to grow.  Barefoot Landing and the Barefoot Resort shuttle service are chief reasons the property is so popular.  In Summer season,  Barefoot Resort shuttles all of its customers to the Oceanfront at 46th Avenue South where the Barefoot Resort Beachfront Cabana exists.

Guests can shower, play in the surf, and get refreshments at this site.

Myrtle Beach Condo Rentals for March and April are down over 18% this Spring.  The culprit is simple,  Myrtle Beach and South Carolina are experiencing temperatures that are well below seasonal averages.

A recent April cold snap has temperatures a good 20 degrees below averages for this time of year.

Tourists are wisely staying home and staying warm where they are as the entire nation is experiencing a much colder than usual Spring.

While flowers are in bloom in Myrtle Beach, SC, there is a definite chill in the air and it has put a chill on Myrtle Beach Condo rentals.

Predictions do have the area back on a normal course by May,  but only time will tell if those predictions are accurate.

Perhaps global warming is occurring,  but current temperatures are certainly no indication.

Myrtle Beach Hotels are just reporting their Easter week numbers,  and unfortunately the numbers will be down considerably for 2007.

While Myrtle Beach Condos held their own,  the early week occupancy was dismal for Myrtle Beach Hotels,  with just off the Ocean hotels reporting as much as 65% vacancy during the Sunday through Wednesday that preceeded Easter weekend.

Cold weather and an increase in the amount of rooms available certainly played a large part in the figures.  Myrtle Beach, SC posted record low temperatures during the Easter holidays.

Many Myrtle Beach Hotels along the South end of Myrtle Beach,  that are just off the ocean,  are older and in need of being replaced by newer structures.  These properties have historically only filled up on weekends.  In 2007,  however,  even Oceanfront Myrtle Beach Hotels did not completely fill during the Easter Weekend.  This period has almost always seen 100% occupancy by Oceanfront Hotels in South Carolina from North Myrtle Beach to Garden City Beach.

Economists are watching to see if this is just an aboration or if this is a new trend that local hotel owners must adjust to.

Myrtle Beach Condos Direct will keep you posted.

Myrtle Beach Condos Direct recorded the coldest Easter weekend on record in decades.

Tourist visiting the Myrtle Beach, South Carolina destination were surprised by the cold snap.  Beaches were largely vacant,  with the exception of tourists looking for sea shells and talking strolls.

The cold snap affected the entire Southeast,  as Andrew Jones, who plays for the Atlanta Braves,  could be seen playing in Atlanta completely bundled and golfers in Augusta, Georgia at the Masters were held to above par rounds.  The winner finished above par for the championship.

Easter Break is a major Myrtle Beach vacation holiday and Myrtle Beach Condo rentals count on the income produced by the week long vacation.  While the cold weather did not cause customers to check out early,  concerns are that such a cold snap could deter visitors to the Myrtle Beach area in future years.

Myrtle Beach Condos welcomed presidential candidate Rudy Giuliani  to Coastal Federal Field for the Myrtle Beach Pelicans season opener.  The former Mayor of New York was on a tour of the state of South Caolina and had visited Columbia, SC earlier in the day.  Many Myrtle Beach Hotel owners are very conservative and the Myrtle Beach area consistently votes republican in local, state and national elections.

The Pelicans drew its largest crowd ever of over 6,000,  but unfortunately lost its home opener.

Fans welcomed Mr. Giuliani and he seemed to be well received by locals and tourists alike.  Most local political pundits in Myrtle Beach as well as North Myrtle Beach do consider the former Mayor the front runner in the 2008 Republican primaires.

While Myrtle Beach Condos Direct has not publicallly gone on the record supporting any given candidate,  some early straw votes sent into http://www.myrtle-beach.com agreed that Mr. Giuliani held the top spot by over a 10% lead among Horry County locals.  If you wish to participate in the Myrtle-Beach straw vote,  send a post card with your candidate's name on it to:

A Myrtle Beach SC Summer vacation is just up the road for many families who live in the Northeast and Southeast of the United States.  With International travel becoming more and more dangerous,  domestic travel is suddenly in.

With that said,  finding a Myrtle Beach Condo this July 4th will be more challenging than it has been in the past two years.  Myrtle Beach Condo rentals are already up 16% for this same date last year on all Summer rentals.  While Myrtle Beach Hotels continue to have increased vacancies,  properties like Barefoot Resort with it Barefoot Yacht Club Villas and Barefoot Resort Condos are becoming increasingly full.

If your family is planning a Myrtle Beach SC vacation,  we suggest that you get organized as Myrtle Beach condos at choice properties will more than likely be filled by mid May 2007.

Myrtle Beach Hotels are beginning to fill this Summer for the 4th of July week.

Many quality oceanfront Myrtle Beach Hotels and condos are starting to become filled.  If your family has not made reservations yet for this peak travel week,  Myrtle Beach Condos Direct suggests that you begin the process of  getting your group lined up and following through with reservations.

Myrtle Beach Condos Direct does have some availability for July,  but reservations are starting to get tight according to Jamie Northrup,  Property Manager for the condos in Myrtle Beach managed by this firm.

Condo rentals in Myrtle Beach often fill more quickly than Myrtle Beach Hotels do,  especially the larger 3 bedroom North Myrtle Beach condo rentas  on the oceanfront.  Mrs. Northrup pointed out that the selection of affordable Barefoot Yacht Club Villas at Barefoot Resort are really getting scarce.

Call Myrtle Beach Condos Direct anytime between 9 am and 5 pm Eastern Standard Time to reserve your condo or return to our home page and simply reserve your Myrtle Beach condo online.

The availability of Condos in Myrtle Beach have increased to an all time high as of October 30, 2006.  Myrtle Beach Real Estate sales have cooled to the point of almost stopping this Fall and occupancy rates per each Myrtle Beach condo have reflected the influx of new construction.

With the Summer 2007 season eight months away,  occupancy rates in June will be a measuring stick to see how all of the new construction will affect the Myrtle Beach Condo Rental business. 

With a trend toward increased 3 night rentals,  the Myrtle Beach Condo industry will need to come up with creative ideas to find market share in a increasingly competitive industry.

Myrtle Beach Condo rentals in the months of November, December, January, and early February at Myrtle Beach Condos Direct will be a fantastic buy for golfers and families alike.

Myrtle Beach Condos Direct is offering fantastic savings on its Barefoot Resort Yacht Club Villas, Barefoot Golf Villas, and Garden City condos.  These luxury condos in Myrtle Beach feature a minimum of 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms and are the newest condos in our area.

Each Myrtle Beach vacation rented during these months will be sold as buy 2 nights and get one night for free.   These 30% discounts will make Holiday travel very affordable.  Snowbirds,  escaping the harsh Canadian winter,  as well as other North Americans in the United States are sure to enjoy the savings and the get aways.

Kingston Plantation, located at  9800 Queensway Boulevard is this week's Myrtle Beach Condos in review.

Kingston Plantation is a 145 acre Myrtle Beach resort with an outstanding clay court tennis facility featuring over 9 clay courts with venue seating for tournament play.  The facility has featured matches that included John McEnroe and Pete Sampras.

Kingston Plantation offers Myrtle Beach Condos on the backside of the resort away from the Ocean.  On the Oceanfront,  kingston offers the Hilton Hotel which features more traditional hotel rooms and the Embassy Suites property which features suite hotel rooms.

We strongly recommend the condo properties,  if a view of the ocean from your room is not critical in your decision criteria.

The Splash Waterpark at Embassy Suites is a great attraction for the kids.

Also,  Kingston features the best onsite fitness center on the beach.  Kingston Plantation's fitness center is not a small room with a few machines thrown in.  At Kingston Plantation,  your family will find one complete room filled with free weights,  a second huge workout room with the  newest technology in workout machines and equipment (with an outstanding glass enclosed view of the tennis facility),  yoga classes, pilates, trainers, instructors, and several enclosed rooms for hand ball.

We highly recommend Kingston Plantation as a good buy for your family's next Myrtle Beach Vacation.

For comparable condo rooms to the off the Ocean Kingston condos,  we suggest you compare Barefoot Resort Villas,  which generally run $30 to $45 less per night for your family and sleeps a family of eight.

Myrtle Beach Condos are getting more plentiful every day as newer condos are being built and older, hotels are being torn down, making room for newer Myrtle Beach condo product.

Starting this month,  Myrtle Beach Condos Direct will begin doing weekly Myrtle Beach Condo Reviews.  We believe visitors to Myrtle Beach should have good information in advance about a potential Myrtle Beach Vacation purchase.

Every Myrtle Beach Resort property that offers condominium rentals will eventually be reviewed.

Check with Myrtle Beach Condos Direct weekly to see if the property your family is considering for a Myrtle Beach Condo Rental has been reviewed.
