3 Easy Ways To Add Value To Your New Home
Are You A Myrtle Beach Contractor or Builder?
If you are, or know someone who is, pay close attention.
Are You Looking to Purchase a New Home In Myrtle Beach?
If you are, or know someone who is, pay close attention.
Are You Building a New Home on the Grand Strand?
If you are, or know someone who is, play close attention.
The Myrtle Beach area, the Grand Strand, is booming!
New roads.
New neighborhoods.
New stores.
New banks.
New hospitals.
New schools.
New local attractions.
New hotels.
New restaurants.
You name it and someone, somewhere, on the Grand Strand is building it!
Isn’t it crazy to see the road construction and the building, the new neighborhoods, stores and restaurants just popping up all over the place?
Just the other day we were driving on Business 17 on the south end of Myrtle Beach near the airport, and what seemed like happened overnight (probably took a few weeks) another new Walmart Neighborhood Store popped up on a corner lot! Not really keeping count, but we can name at least five such stores that were built in the last year or so on the Grand Strand. That’s a LOT of new Walmart stores in one area… and area that already has several Super Walmart Stores!
Take it from Walmart – if they build new stores, that area is thriving and growing!
Stores, schools and roads, oh my!
That’s all great, but who is moving to Myrtle Beach?
It seems everyone is!
What is There Not to Love About Myrtle Beach?
People move to the beach for
- weather
- cheap cost of living
- cheap homes
- low tax rates
- join up with family
- jobs
- retirement
- seasonal work
- college
Whatever reason they come, most people stay and make Myrtle Beach their permanent home!
If You Are Building a New Home in Myrtle Beach, Pay Attention Here!
We are a locally owned and locally operated small business, Strand Security. We live and work right here at the beach with you, in a neighborhood just like yours.
If you are investing in the Grand Strand area, by buying a new home or establishing a business, especially a new construction, we want you to get more bang for your buck.
We work with contractors, builders and home and business owners on a daily basis.
Here is what we learned: It pays to think and plan ahead!
Meaning; when building a home or a business building, it is a good idea to add wiring and pipes for certain add-on features you might, or might not, want at a later date.
Here are three adds-on features (we feel these aren’t really add-ons but we’ve learned they are) you might want to consider planning for BEFORE construction on your home or business building is complete!
These three features are
If you have any of these item on your ‘wish list’ for your new home let us tell you that adding these AFTER your construction is complete, you’ll also be adding more money to overall cost for these items!
Wiring for a security system or adding the central vacuum to your new home is MUCH EASIER and MUCH CHEAPER to do BEFORE the WALLS GO UP! That does make sense, right? The same holds true for the construction of a home theater! Getting the right wiring, the right outlets in the right place on the right wall makes it ‘done right’ the first time and saves you money down the road.
Last but not least let us mention that adding these ‘extra’ features adds immediate value to your new home!
Let Us Work With Your Builder!
We enjoy working with builders.
If you are in the midst of construction for a new home or business, come talk to us at our office in Murrells Inlet or call Chuck anytime at 843-318-6392. We prefer doing your installation before the walls are up, but certainly before the home is completely finished. It will save you money and that makes not just us happy, but it should make you happy as well!
