Welcome back to The UpSwing, where Myrtle Beach real estate meets real life. In this episode, Mark and Brian cover everything from Coastal Carolina’s College World Series run and the Myrtle Beach Pelicans’ $25 million lease extension, to the closure of River Oaks Golf Course and what 600 new homes could mean for nearby investors and short-term rentals. They also reflect on the wild (and wet) Carolina Country Music Fest, share some wild walkthrough stories (yes, including police threats), and talk local market stats—like May hitting another record average sale price. Plus, Father’s Day plans, zipline fears, surprise pizza parties for 18, and a teaser for their upcoming interview with Miss Myrtle Beach and Miss Grand Strand. It’s a jam-packed, local-laced episode you don’t want to miss.
