How do I sell my house fast in Myrtle Beach, SC?
To sell your house fast in Myrtle Beach, describe the house, get a cash offer built from Horry County sales, and pick a closing date that suits you. Propcash prices the house itself and shows its math, and nothing needs fixing or listing first. With the typical sale taking 104 days, the calendar is often what owners want back.
Tell us about your Grand Strand house
Address, condition, and timing: a rental with guests booked into next season, a roof that took the last storm, or an estate still furnished. About two minutes, no commitment.
Get your fair cash offer
Recent Horry County sales of comparable houses set the figure, not a citywide median pulled around by oceanfront condos. You see those sales and the repair estimate behind the number, so you can weigh it against listing.
Review your offer & close
If it fits, a South Carolina closing attorney can settle in as few as 7 days after the contract is signed, as is the state's practice, and unpaid Horry County taxes are usually cleared from the proceeds at closing.

How Propcash stacks up against other ways to sell a Myrtle Beach house
That's us
If you have time and the house shows well, listing with an agent may net you more. If you want it done without repairs or showings, that is where we come in. We tell you straight either way.
Why do Myrtle Beach homeowners sell their houses for cash?
Second houses taxed at 6%, estates in the Horry County Probate Court, storm repairs that hit the floodplain rules, and a 104-day wait bring Myrtle Beach owners to a cash offer.
Inherited house
Inherited a house in The Dunes or Myrtlewood? Unless the will grants a power of sale, the personal representative cannot sell estate real estate without a court procedure, so most heirs first receive a deed of distribution through the Horry County Probate Court. See how we help with inherited houses.
Relocating on a hard start date
A move away from Coastal Carolina University, a hospital post, or a seasonal business rarely lines up with a 104-day listing plus a buyer's lender. A cash offer lets the closing date follow your move instead of the market.
Divorce
South Carolina courts divide marital property by equitable apportionment, not automatically 50/50, and the house is often the largest asset. One written number with the comparable sales attached gives both spouses the same starting point. See how we work with divorcing sellers.
Not list-ready in a 104-day market
The Myrtle Beach houses that linger tend to need a roof, a new outdoor unit after years of salt air, or a full cleanout. An offer on a house that needs major repairs counts that work up front, so the contractor calendar never starts.
Behind on payments
South Carolina lenders can foreclose only through the courts, and in Horry County the Master-in-Equity holds those sales on the first Monday of each month. A sale that closes first can pay off the loan. Propcash is only ever a buyer for owners facing foreclosure, never a lender or a rescue plan.
Tired of being a landlord
Tired of turnovers on a Socastee rental, or of license renewals on a vacation house? Tenants can stay through the sale, and a rental contract still in place at closing is simply disclosed. See how we work with tired landlords.
What is the Myrtle Beach housing market doing in 2026?

Redfin's figures include the city's many condos, and our guide to how cash buyers calculate offers explains how a house is priced instead.

Sell your house fast in Myrtle Beach, in any neighborhood
You can get a cash offer on a house anywhere in Myrtle Beach, in any condition: Market Common, built where the air base closed in 1993, the older blocks around Withers Swash downtown, and out to unincorporated Carolina Forest and Socastee. Horry County's assessor, Probate Court, and Master-in-Equity serve every one of those addresses from Conway.
House across the line in North Myrtle Beach, Surfside Beach, or Conway? You can get an offer there too. Elsewhere in the state, sell a house fast in Charleston, get a cash offer in Columbia, sell a house fast in Greenville, or start at our South Carolina cash offer page.
Myrtle Beach neighborhoods, from Market Common to the north end
Legal residence or rental, the distance to a swash or the waterway, and the age of the systems all shape a fair Myrtle Beach offer.
Market Common and the south end (29577)
Market Common grew on the former Myrtle Beach Air Force Base, which closed in 1993 after nearly 50 years as a military town (City of Myrtle Beach). Its houses are newer than most in the city. Zillow's typical value for ZIP 29577 was $278,480 in August 2026, nearly flat for the year (Zillow).
Withers Swash and downtown (29577)
Downtown holds the oldest in-town houses, close to the Arts and Innovation District the city is planning along Main Street, Broadway Street, Oak Street, and Ninth Avenue North (City of Myrtle Beach). Withers Swash is one of five swashes that drain the city, and lots beside them raise an insurer's floodplain questions first. Original wiring and settled floors are the usual inspection items.
Myrtlewood, The Dunes, and Arcadian Shores (29577, 29572)
Myrtlewood's golf-course streets sit near the Intracoastal Waterway, while The Dunes and Arcadian Shores run along the north end near the ocean, where Zillow's ZIP 29572 typical value was $316,692 in August 2026 (Zillow). Many of these are second houses taxed at the 6% ratio, so every month on the market costs their owners more than it costs a resident.
Grande Dunes (29572, 29579)
Grande Dunes straddles the Intracoastal Waterway, so its addresses fall in both ZIP 29572 and ZIP 29579, where Zillow's typical value was $358,049 in August 2026 (Zillow). Owners here often sell an unused second house or settle an estate, and an offer can account for dated finishes as they stand.
Carolina Forest, Forestbrook, and Socastee (29579, 29588)
These are unincorporated Horry County communities with Myrtle Beach addresses, so county code applies instead of city code. Florence's Waccamaw River flood wave moved through Socastee in 2018, and Silver Fox Landing near the Intracoastal Waterway took up to eight feet of water inside houses (National Weather Service). You can get a cash offer on your Myrtle Beach house in any of them.
Sell your Myrtle Beach house for cash, in any condition
Your Myrtle Beach house can sell exactly as it stands: nothing repaired, re-roofed, or emptied. Take what you want and leave the rest.
Myrtle Beach houses run from older cottages near downtown to newer subdivisions west of the waterway, and salt air ages all of them. A financed buyer's inspector usually flags roofs, corroded outdoor units, moisture under the floor, and termite damage.
- Hurricane and wind damage
Lifted shingles, a tarp, or torn soffits from the last storm are priced in rather than fixed first.
- Past flooding near a swash or the waterway
A flood claim or a water line in the garage goes on the table, and the offer still follows.
- Salt-worn HVAC and original systems
A corroded outdoor unit or first-owner wiring and plumbing becomes part of the pricing.
- A furnished second house or estate
Beach furniture, linens, and a parent's belongings can stay. Keep what matters and leave the rest.
- Termite damage and soft framing
Unrepaired insect damage is a disclosure question, and it simply becomes part of the number.

How cash offers are calculated, what to expect from a cash buyer, and the questions to ask first.
What Myrtle Beach sellers are up against
A 104-day median rewards houses that are ready, legally rented, and dry. Four local rules push owners of other houses toward a cash offer.
Storm repairs can trigger the 50% rule
In Myrtle Beach's mapped flood zones, any improvement costing 50% or more of the structure's market value is a substantial improvement, and the code adds together every improvement made over the previous 10 years (Zoning Code, Section 1102). Once a house crosses that line in an AE zone, its lowest floor must sit at least three feet above the base flood elevation (Section 1110). Rebuilding an older house after a storm can mean raising it, so some owners sell it as it stands.
An unfit dwelling case goes on record
When the city's public officer finds a house may be unfit to live in, the owner gets a complaint and a hearing 5 to 15 days later, and the complaint is filed with the Horry County Register of Deeds as a lis pendens (City Code, Sec. 10-46). If the city pays to repair or clear the house, the cost becomes a lien it can foreclose like a tax lien (Sec. 10-50), and renting out an unfit house is unlawful.
Second houses pay the 6% ratio
South Carolina assesses an owner-occupied legal residence at 4% of fair market value and other houses at 6% (S.C. Code 12-43-220), and only the legal residence escapes school operating millage. Horry County's assessor excludes vacation houses from the 4% class (Horry County). A 2026 law keeps a late owner's 4% ratio until the estate closes or a deed of distribution is recorded, unless the house is rented over 72 days (Act 140 of 2026).
Estates, foreclosures, and tax sales run on Conway's calendar
A will must be filed with the Horry County Probate Court within 30 days of death (Horry County). Foreclosure sales are held by the Master-in-Equity at 11 a.m. on the first Monday of each month, and stay open 30 days for a higher offer when the lender seeks a deficiency (Horry County). Unpaid taxes go delinquent March 17, and the 2026 tax sale is December 1, with 12 months to redeem (Horry County Treasurer).
Are cash home buyers in Myrtle Beach legit?
Legitimate cash home buyers work in Myrtle Beach, and so do operators who sign a contract with no plan to close. Who buys houses for cash in Myrtle Beach? Mostly local renovators, vacation-rental operators, and national direct cash homebuyers like Propcash, which makes cash offers as a principal. Whether you searched sell my house fast Myrtle Beach SC, cash home buyers Myrtle Beach, or sell my house for cash in Myrtle Beach, ask anyone you talk to who is putting up the money and how soon they can close.
How to check a cash buyer in Myrtle Beach
Ask for proof of funds, a written offer, and the name of the South Carolina closing attorney, and never pay anything up front or sign over a deed before closing. South Carolina requires a Real Estate Commission license to advertise or market real estate owned by someone else for pay (S.C. Code 40-57-20 and 40-57-30), so ask directly whether the company in front of you is the buyer or someone marketing your house to others.
Common questions about selling a Myrtle Beach house
How is Propcash different from other cash buyers in Myrtle Beach?
A lot of cash buyers hand you a single figure and expect a quick yes. Propcash builds its Myrtle Beach offer from recent Horry County sales of houses like yours, shows you those sales and the repair estimate, and lets you decide when, or whether, to close. There is no deadline on the offer. When an agent listing would likely net you more, we tell you so and can point you to a local agent. We may receive compensation from agents we refer.
Are cash home buyers in Myrtle Beach legit, and who buys houses for cash in Myrtle Beach?
Many are, but verify before you sign anything. Along the Grand Strand, cash buyers include renovators, rental operators, and national direct cash homebuyers like Propcash. A legitimate buyer can show proof of funds, puts the price in writing, names the South Carolina closing attorney, and never asks you for money up front. Anyone who wants a deed or a fee before closing day gives you a reason to walk away.
Can I sell my house fast anywhere in South Carolina, or only in Myrtle Beach?
Anywhere in South Carolina. The state's disclosure, probate, and foreclosure statutes apply statewide, so a Charleston or Greenville house follows the same path as a Myrtle Beach one, and only the comparable sales differ. Start at our South Carolina cash offer page, or go straight to the pages to sell a house fast in Charleston and get a cash offer in Columbia.
How do I sell my house fast in Myrtle Beach, SC, if I am behind on payments?
Move early. South Carolina lenders must foreclose through the courts, and a sale passes title only after a judgment establishes the debt (S.C. Code 29-3-630). In Horry County the Master-in-Equity then sells on the first Monday of the month, after three weeks of advertising. If the lender seeks a deficiency, the sale stays open 30 days for a higher offer. A cash sale that closes before the sale date can pay off the loan. A lawyer can advise on your own case.
Can I sell my house as-is in Myrtle Beach without making repairs?
Yes. A Myrtle Beach house can sell in its current state: a tarped roof after a storm, a rusted outdoor unit, a damp crawl space, old termite damage, or rooms still furnished for renters. Those conditions are priced into the offer instead of going on a contractor's list, and nothing has to be cleaned, emptied, or staged first. Take what you want and leave the rest where it is.
Do I have to tell a buyer about a vacation rental contract or flood damage on my Myrtle Beach house?
South Carolina's disclosure law has the owner either report conditions they actually know about or state that they make no representations, on the Real Estate Commission form (S.C. Code 27-50-40). The form covers the roof, structure, systems, unrepaired termite damage, and any vacation rental or lease contract in place at closing, and it is due before the contract is signed. Knowingly false answers can make an owner liable for damages, so pricing known storm damage up front keeps the sale simple.
Can I sell my house fast in North Myrtle Beach, Surfside Beach, or Conway?
Yes. Propcash makes cash offers across the Grand Strand, including North Myrtle Beach, Surfside Beach, Garden City, Murrells Inlet, and Conway, the Horry County seat. Each town runs its own code and flood rules, and the offer is priced on that town's recent sales rather than on a Myrtle Beach figure. Unincorporated addresses such as Socastee follow Horry County's code instead of a town's.
Why is the property tax so much higher on a second house in Myrtle Beach?
Because South Carolina taxes the two differently. A legal residence is assessed at 4% of fair market value and skips school operating millage, while a second house or rental is assessed at 6% and pays it (S.C. Code 12-43-220). Horry County's assessor does not treat a house kept mainly for vacations as a legal residence. A sale also resets the taxable value to market value as of the transfer for the buyer, and the county last reassessed for tax year 2024.
I inherited a Myrtle Beach house. Do I have to open probate to sell it?
Usually, yes. Unless the will gives the personal representative a power of sale, South Carolina law bars that person from selling estate real estate outside a court procedure (S.C. Code 62-3-711), so most heirs open the estate with the Horry County Probate Court and receive a deed of distribution. The small estate affidavit, now capped at $45,000, collects only personal property, never the house. A probate deadline is worth a call to a lawyer.
How fast can a Myrtle Beach cash sale close, and are there any fees?
A Myrtle Beach cash sale can close in as few as 7 days after the contract is signed, with a South Carolina closing attorney handling settlement and no lender, appraisal, or loan approval to wait on. Estates, rented houses, and tax payoffs can add paperwork time. You are charged no commissions, no closing costs, and no fees, and you choose the date.
