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.

Mark and Brian kick off Memorial Day weekend with a packed episode. Brian recounts his wild 12-hour adventure race through high water, mountains, and mayhem. The guys dive into the headaches of navigating short-term rental transfers during peak season—complete with cleaning crew chaos and $1,500 silk sheets gone rogue. They talk Myrtle Beach real estate quirks, including appraisal battles, baby gates on crawl spaces, and being named one of the most affordable beach towns in the U.S. Plus, a deep dive into Picasso’s luxury fractional home ownership, bike week flashbacks, and why banning the NFL’s "Tush Push" didn’t pass. Throw in some birthday plans, beach tips, and a peek at CCMF prep—this one’s got a little bit of everything.
