Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026 - Sep 2026).
Inventory and contract activity in Carolina Shores have slowed notably in this rolling three-month view, with active listings down more than 30 percent and homes sold falling by a similar margin compared with a year ago. New listings and pending sales have dropped even more sharply year over year, pointing to fewer homeowners listing and fewer deals moving into contract.
Pricing has softened but not dramatically, as the typical home value is slightly below last year while the median list price is also down a bit over the same period. At the same time, months of supply has more than doubled year over year to nearly six months, signaling a shift toward more balance between buyers and sellers than in prior years.
Conditions show buyers gaining negotiating room, with the average sale-to-list ratio just under 97 percent and only a small share of homes selling above asking, even as the area is still described as a seller’s market overall. Longer median days on market compared with last year also suggest buyers have more time to make decisions, while sellers must price carefully and be patient. Both buyers and sellers can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help connecting with a local agent who understands these shifting dynamics and can guide them through each step of the process.

“After 2 previous agents, contracts with multiple developers, many years tied up with those contracts and nothing to show for it, we contracted with Jeff Lesley. He worked with the developer and negotiated nonrefundable funds when they wanted multiple extensions. Those funds increased as they needed more time. Finally, we closed last week. Thank you Jeff for your persistence and professionalism.”
“Exceptional Realtor and Advocate We could not have asked for a better realtor to help us purchase our new home and sell our townhome. From the very beginning, she was incredibly responsive, attentive, and always available to support us throughout the entire process. She did an outstanding job representing us and was truly our advocate every step of the way. She listened to what was important to us, provided thoughtful guidance, and made sure our interests were always well represented. Her professionalism, knowledge, and commitment gave us tremendous confidence during what can be a very stressful process. We always felt that we had someone in our corner who genuinely cared about helping us find the right home and making the experience as smooth as possible. We are so grateful for everything she did and would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy a home.”
“Merritt was so wonderful to work with on our recent home sale and purchase. She is a highly knowledgeable, punctual and responsive professional who has all of the connections in her industry. After helping us to sell our home quickly, she found us a home before it hit the market. Would not hesitate to recommend Merritt to anyone in search of the best real estate professional.”
“If you're looking for an agent who will get your house sold quickly and for the right price, I can't recommend David enough. I was selling a very old home in Lumberton, NC, and several people told me I would never get the price I was hoping for. David believed otherwise. He had a buyer before we even had the open house, and we ended up selling for a price I was extremely happy with. From start to finish, David was easy to work with. He was always available when I had questions, responded quickly, and kept everything professional and straightforward. As a first-time home seller, I had plenty of inexperienced thoughts, ideas, and moments where I just needed to vent. He never made me feel like I was wasting his time. Instead, he listened, gave honest advice, and did an incredible job translating my concerns into productive conversations with the buyer. He was the perfect middleman throughout the entire process. Selling an older home comes with its own challenges, but David handled everything with confidence and kept the deal moving forward. I truly felt like he was looking out for my best interests every step of the way. 10/10 experience. If you want your house sold quickly, for the right price, and want an agent who communicates, works hard, and gets results, I highly recommend David.”
“Chris is a truly exceptional sales professional as well as an honest and reliable realtor. I have recommended him to neighbors . I appreciated his above and beyond service as much as his low stress and friendly manner .”
“Josh was great to work with, very respectful of what we as sellers wanted, knowledgeable and prompt at returning information and keeping me up to date with the process. I would recommend Josh to anyone trying to sell their house under any circumstance”
“Tameka, Is attentive to detail and getting to know your wants. She is always helpful and supportive. Tameka went to my final walk through for me due to previous obligations, but she had me on virtual so that I could see and hear everything! She then met me at my home the next day so that I could walk through again to identify any additional issues or concerns I had with the house. Tameka is great!”
“Neil is great! He is very knowledgeable and a pleasure to work with. I will definitely refer him to anyone that asks if I know a local agent.”

Her initial meeting with me proved she was prepared, detailed, prompt, honest and professional regarding all aspects of the selling process. She was never “unavailable” for questions or concerns and communicated early and often. Always gave expert advice and feedback throughout the process. I would recommend Carli and her team to anyone!”
“Robert and Wave Beach Realty more than exceeded our expectations in finding our home. Robert is really an expert in the Myrtle Beach area. His attention to detail is amazing. Robert worked with us after the sale of the home. For example, he assisted with the building and final inspections giving advice and suggestions to make sure there were no issues. When there were, he spoke on our behalf to got items corrected. You truly cannot find a better realtor to work with. Robert shows how passionate he is about getting into the right home for you. I have shared his contact with several friends and colleagues looking for a home. You will be happy with your home buying experience with Robert Ward”
“I listed a property FSBO. When contacted by prospective buyers, I was informed they were represented by Natalie Rakoci as their realtor. I have bought and sold numerous properties over the years, so I have a good understanding of the process. Natalie was very easy to work with throughout the process. There were a few nuances to work through since I was not a realtor but Natalie ensured I was informed. There was an issue with the buyers lender about 3 weeks prior to closing but Natalie informed me immediately. Her expertise and knowledge in the local area allowed her to contact another lender who provided the buyers with the ability to close on the loan in a timely manner. I highly recommend Natalie Rakoci to represent you as professional realtor.”
