As a local real estate expert with MB Coastal Homes, I want to give you a clear, up-to-date breakdown of average home prices (single-family and condo/townhome where available) across the main cities and towns in the Grand Strand area. This guide will help you understand current market dynamics and make smarter buying decisions.
1. Loris

According to the Coastal Carolinas Association of REALTORS® (CCARSC) Local Market Report, the Loris/Longs area (ZIPs 29568 & 29569) is tracked together, but the report does not always split single-family vs. condos.

According to CCARSC, the median sales price for single-family homes in North Myrtle Beach is in the range of **$600,000‑$700,000**. According to the broader Coastal Carolinas market report, median condo prices for the area have recently settled around **$350,000**.

CCARSC’s July 2025 market report shows median single-family home prices in Carolina Forest averaging around **$450,000–$500,000** in many neighborhoods. Condo/townhome pricing in Carolina Forest was not clearly broken out in recent CCARSC data, but many of the newer communities are primarily single-family.
7. Conway
Summary: Historic riverside town with a strong sense of community, proximity to Myrtle Beach, and a lower cost for coastal-adjacent living.
As of 2025, Conway’s median home price remains relatively affordable compared to the beach, making it a hidden gem for buyers. While a specific condo/single-family split wasn’t reported, general data suggests many single-family homes hover in the **$290,000–$350,000+** range depending on proximity to downtown or river.
8. Aynor
Summary: A small inland town with rural charm, growing in popularity for its affordability and peaceful pace.
According to CCARSC’s July 2025 report, single-family home prices in Aynor (ZIP 29511) are increasingly moving up, with many properties in the **$300,000+** range depending on size and lot. There is limited publicly available data on condo or townhome sales in Aynor, since it's a more traditional single-family market.
9. Surfside Beach
Summary: Known as the “Family Beach,” this town offers a quieter coastline, small-town feel, and a good mix of homes and condos.
In ZIP code 29575 (Surfside Beach), Redfin reports a median sale price of **$340,000** (as of October 2025). According to NY Post referencing Realtor.com data, Surfside offers both reasonably priced single-family homes and condos that make it attractive.

11. Pawleys Island
Summary: An upscale, historic beach town known for its charm, serenity, and more exclusive property market.
Zillow lists the average home value in Pawleys Island around **$539,170**, reflecting its premium status. Because Pawleys is a smaller, more niche market, typical condo/townhome data is less available; many sales are for single-family homes or larger vacation properties.
