What the Numbers Mean for Horry County Distressed Property Buyers
- Vacancy. About 27.0% of Horry County's housing units (58,640 homes) were vacant in the 2020–2024 ACS, above the U.S. figure of 10.1%. That count includes homes for rent, for sale, and seasonal homes, so it is a market-wide signal rather than a count of distressed homes; our county list is what identifies the distressed ones.
- Housing age. The median home in Horry County was built in 1999, about 19 years newer than the U.S. median (1980). Newer stock tends to need fewer system replacements, so repair scopes on distressed homes here are more often cosmetic or deferred-maintenance work.
- Prices. The median home value of $287,700 is 14% below the U.S. median of $332,700, and equals 4.3 times the county's median household income of $66,880. That puts deal spreads in a mid-range for wholesalers and flippers.
- Tenure. 77.3% of occupied homes in Horry County are owner-occupied, above the national 65.2%. With renters a smaller share (22.7%), more of the distress signals here are likely to come from owner-occupants, such as tax delinquency or foreclosure, than from landlords.
- Growth. Horry County grew 21.8% between 2020 and 2025. Growing counties keep buyer demand and rehab resale values supported, which helps investors exit deals.
