Coldwell Banker 10 Day Sales Event- Myrtle Beach is Participating!

10 Day Sales EventColdwell Banker is having a very special 10 Day Sales Event!  It begins on October 10th.  Your Local Myrtle Beach Coldwell Banker is participating in this event.  On these 10 days hundreds of Coldwell Banker Chicora Real Estate listings will be reduced at least 10% from their current listing price during the Coldwell Banker 10 day sale. 

Also, any buyer that purchases Myrtle Beach Real Estate during the Coldwell Banker 10 Day sale and uses Coldwell Banker Mortgage as their lender will receive the appraisal at no cost!  If you are a buyer that has considered buying Myrtle Beach Real Estate, this is a wonderful time to do so.  Here are two great reasons:

  • Inventory of homes is high right now which means a large selection of homes to choose from.
  • Interest rates are still very reasonable.  There have been rumors that interest rates could rise over the next few years which could cost you several thousands of dollars extra.

Here are a few of our listings that are participating in the Coldwell Banker 10 Day Sale

Unit 428 Caravelle Tower Myrtle Beach, SC 29577

Unit 1054 Long Bay Resort Myrtle Beach, SC 29577

How One Post on Moving Tips Led to Much More!

MovingA few months ago as I was just getting my feet wet in the Blogosphere I wrote a post on Moving Day Countdown and listed some tips for as you prepare to move and things you should do. Being an agent helping buyers & sellers both buy & sell Myrtle Beach Real Estate, I thought this would be something helpful to both groups.

This post was written in April of this year. A month later, freelance writer Yuki Hayashi contacted me based on the post I had written. Here was her original message:

Message details:
From: Yuki Hayashi
Email: yuki@xxxxx.ca
Subject: Interview request

Hi Jeremy,
I came across your website while doing a web search for moving tips from real estate agents. I am writing a story for Rubbermaid's consumer website, Rubbermaid.com, on this very topic and am looking for an expert to interview. I thought you might be interested, given your familiarity with the subject, success as a realtor and also since it's a great promo opportunity! – Rubbermaid.com fields significant traffic across the US.

The story will look specifically at the packing and transportation aspect of moving house. How to plan ahead, packing tips, how to find a reliable mover--that kind of stuff.

Would you be available for a fast (10 minute) phone interview sometime today (Tuesday May 13) or tomorrow?. Please email me and let me know if you are, and a good time to call you and at what number, or feel free to call me at xxx-xxx-xxxx.

Thanks and best regards,
Yuki Hayashi

RubbermaidThe next day we did the interview and I basically forgot about the whole thing. Then while cleaning out old email today, I came across the original email above and decided to contact Yuki to see if anything has been published yet. Within minutes she wrote back and included a link to the post.

So, go read the full article here which is on Rubbermaid.com. I think Yuki did an excellent job conveying the wonderful moving tips we discussed on the phone during our interview.

I guess now I can not only say that I am a Myrtle Beach Real Estate Expert, but also an moving expert as well. Not to mention being able to mention that I was published by Rubbermaid is pretty cool!

Over the weekend, our market saw 70 new listings entered to the MLS while 247 properties went under contract. That is 3.5 to 1 ratio of homes going under contract to new homes being listed for sale.

Hopefully this is the beginning of a trend in our market.

Interest rates are still rather low and with the abundant inventory of property listed for sale in Myrtle Beach, buyers have a lot to choose from.
