by

Experience Myrtle Beach in a brand new way by living how the locals do! These are the best local spots along the Grand Strand! Enjoy live music, creative drinks, and yummy desserts!

Riptydz

Riptydz is an attraction for both locals and tourists of Myrtle Beach because of their oceanfront views and incredible dishes! Locals of Myrtle Beach love a spot where they can enjoy the waves and maybe hear some live music. Riptydz also has a great happy hour so after work locals will head to the beach for drinks and appetizers.

Prosser’s BBQ

Hidden in Murrells Inlet, Prosser’s is a buffet style BBQ joint with the best homemade southern cooking on the Grand Strand. Trust us, it’s worth the drive for their fried chicken and banana pudding.

MarshWalk

The MarshWalk in Murrells Inlet is known for their fresh seafood and live entertainment at almost every bar! The MarshWalk is a local’s favorite because of the live music and ability to easily stroll to other bars along the inlet for a new scene. 

Croissants Bistro & Bakery

With two locations, Croissants is known for their sensational brunch items and delicate special occasion cakes. Croissants is a twist on French cuisine and southern flavor with great hospitality and a hometown feel.

Art Burger Sushi Bar

Located in downtown Myrtle Beach, Art is locally owned and features artwork from Grand Strand artists. Art has reinvented the beachfront dining experience with nitrogen cocktails and creative sushi dishes.

While there are plenty of places to choose from in Myrtle Beach, we like to think the locals know best!

Ask a Dargan Real Estate Agent: Myrtle Beach Housing Market

by

Each month we feature a question with an answer from one of our realtors. Check in with us for expert tips and advice on real estate in Myrtle Beach!
Question: What’s the market like in Myrtle Beach right now? 

Answer from Caroline: The market is on fire right now in Myrtle Beach. Just to give you some insight. I had a buyer from Texas call me at 7:30 am they saw a property online, I went and FaceTimed them on my cell phone so they could preview the property that day. We decided to make an offer and we got into a multiple offer situation. However, we negotiated the property and got it. I handled the inspection, CL-100 and we did a mail away closing. The buyers never had to come into town. They have closed on the property and love it! Had we not moved fast we would have lost it. That home was on the market for 7 days! If things are priced right they are moving quickly! We are seeing multiple offers again and our market is as hot as the weather right now! Call us today for all your real estate needs!

Spring Cleaning Tips for Your Home

by

Spring is officially here in Myrtle Beach and that means it’s time to reorganize and refresh your home before the kids are out of school and summer activities to get in the way. Here are 5 tips to help you get the most out of your spring cleaning this year.

 

  • Mark your Calendar! 

Plan ahead by creating a list of what you want to accomplish. Kitchen? Bathroom? Bedrooms? By making a list of where you want to clean, you can then figure out what supplies you will need. Pick a day where you won’t be distracted or tempted to ditch the cleaning for other plans.

 

  • Work Top to Bottom

Start by cleaning the top of the fridge or cabinets. Don’t forget to clean the blades on the ceiling fans! Work your way down and any excess dust will be on the floor for you to easily sweep up or wipe away.

 

  • Comforters, Blankets, and Pillows Oh My!

Check the tags on your comforters, blankets, and pillows to see how to properly wash them. If you don’t think they need to be cleaned, consider even taking them outside to hang up and air out! This is a great way to freshen up the spaces of your home you use regularly.

 

  • Organization is Key

When planning out your cleaning day, search for supplies that can help you stay organized. Storage bins, closet organizers, and clear jars for the pantry are all easy ways to create a simple, minimalist look within your home.

 

  • Don’t Stop There!

Create a fun method to stay engaged in cleaning year-round. Quick tidying and decluttering of your home will not only make the house look better but it will also make you feel better! If you’re feeling anxious or stressed and not sure what to do first, begin with tidying up the space you’re in to clear the thoughts in your head.

By following these tips you can revive your home and get ready for summer gatherings and backyard BBQ’s that everyone is sure to enjoy!
