Myrtle Beach Commercial Real Estate Market
Myrtle Beach's CRE market is overwhelmingly driven by tourism and retirement migration, with the Grand Strand's 60 miles of coastline generating demand for hospitality, retail, and resort-oriented commercial properties. The market has diversified beyond seasonal beach tourism with medical facility expansion from Tidelands Health and Conway Medical Center, as well as growing demand for self-storage and senior living facilities tied to the area's rapid population growth. The Highway 17 Bypass and Highway 501 corridors are the primary commercial arteries, with significant retail, medical office, and flex-space development. Market seasonality remains a key underwriting factor, as many retail and hospitality properties generate 60-70% of annual revenue during the May-through-September peak season.
Key Economic Drivers
- ●Grand Strand tourism economy attracting approximately 20 million visitors annually
- ●Rapid retiree and permanent resident in-migration driving multifamily, medical, and retail demand
- ●Myrtle Beach International Airport's expanded service increasing year-round accessibility
- ●Coastal Carolina University and Horry-Georgetown Technical College anchoring the Conway corridor
Market Insight
Myrtle Beach is one of the fastest-growing metro areas by population percentage in the U.S., and this sustained in-migration has shifted the CRE market from purely seasonal tourism toward year-round demand for medical offices, grocery-anchored retail, and workforce housing.
