~ Michael Atwood

This is the year-to-date real estate report for 2021 which includes sales for all Barefoot Resort properties. This includes both the Residential and the Non-Residential properties.

Barefoot Single Family Homes

  YTD TOTALS CURRENT ACTIVE PENDING
LISTINGS 59* 4 9
SOLD 46    
PRICING $467,302 (average sales price)    

 (*This includes all active, sold, pending, & expired properties)

As a comparison to the previous year the number of sales was close to the same as the previous year. But the average sales price was 21% higher compared to the previous year as higher priced homes sold during this year in Barefoot Resort. The number of available properties was down slightly as compared to the previous year and the properties are selling at a faster rate compared to 2020. During 2021 the sales rate per month was 6.5 which was the same sales per month as compared to the previous year. We currently only have around 1/2 months inventory of homes available in the Barefoot Community based upon that sales rate per month. We have 9 homes pending now for this year and that is the same as the previous levels during the same time in 2020.

We remain optimistic for the rest of the year as interest rates continue to remain steady compared to the same time last year. The average days on market was 118 compared to 124 the previous year. Now is a great time to place your property on the market if you are looking to sell your home here in Barefoot Resort. If you have friends or relatives looking to purchase here, then it’s time to get them here in order to get the best price for homes that are currently on the market. The market overall remains strong in our area and especially in North Myrtle Beach.

Barefoot Condo/Townhomes

  YTD CURRENT ACTIVE PENDING
LISTINGS 260* 56 37
SOLD 204    
PRICING $251,332 (average)    

(*This includes all active, expired, pending, and sold properties)

Pricing has increased 8% in 2021 compared to 2020. That is a slight increase over the previous year. The year-to-date average monthly sales rate for condominium and townhomes is 29.1 sales per month compared to the average of 20/month in 2020. We currently have around 1/2 months of condominiums available for sale in the Barefoot Resort Community based upon the amount of inventory and the current rate of sales per month. The average days on market was also lower as compared to the results from 2020.

We continue to remain optimistic about the market for the upcoming year. The current interest rates are somewhat flat as compared to this same time last year. If you are looking to sell now it is a great time for condominium sales as compared to the same time last year. So, if you are considering selling during this time of the year then it’s a good time to get your property on the market based upon current sales levels and pending transactions.
