Jennifer Squires
I recently sold my home in Hemingway, SC with Joel Barber, and the experience was outstanding. He came prepared with local comps, a smart pricing plan, and staging tips that really elevated the listing. The photography and online marketing were top-notch, and we had steady showings from day one. Joel kept me informed at every step, negotiated confidently, and coordinated inspections and closing like a pro. If you want a smooth sale and a strong result, call Joel.

Joel Barber guided me through selling my North Myrtle Beach home from start to finish. He nailed the pricing strategy, brought in professional photos and video, and kept me informed after every showing. We got multiple strong offers, and Joel negotiated excellent terms, including repairs and timelines that worked for me. He also connected me with reliable local vendors for small touch-ups before listing. Closed on time, sold above what I expected, and the process was smooth. If you're selling on the Grand Strand, Joel is the one to call.
Justin Howden
We sold our Aynor home with Joel Barber and it was smooth from start to finish. Smart pricing, constant communication, and a great offer quickly. Highly recommend!
James Lynch
I'm sentimental about my home--and allergic to paperwork. Joel respected both. He staged the story, not just the house, then hustled the details so I didn't have to. Result: smooth sale, happy seller, jealous neighbors. If you're reading reviews, you should probably be signing his listing agreement
Cheryl Pickrell
We sold quickly and above expectations thanks to Joel's strategy--pro photos, targeted marketing, and honest guidance on price. He handled inspection items and kept the timeline tight. Couldn't ask for a better experience selling in Myrtle Beach.
FAQ
Answered Questions
Buying a home through tax sales is possible, but it's important to understand the risks. In most states, including North Carolina, Tennessee, and Georgia, tax auctions often come with redemption periods where the original owner can reclaim the property. Titles from tax sales can also carry liens that must be cleared before you get full ownership. If your main goal is affordable housing, sometimes buying a starter home in areas like Myrtle Beach, SC or Conway, SC is a safer option than gambling on tax auctions. Our market still has homes at reasonable prices, and you avoid the legal complications that often come with tax deeds. If you'd like, I can connect you with resources on how to safely pursue affordable homes without the headaches of tax sales.
Yes, in many cases you can request to have two adjoining parcels combined into one. This is usually done through your county assessor's or tax office, and the process is sometimes called a " parcel combinationaEUR? or " lot consolidation.aEUR? Once approved, it can reduce the administrative side of property taxes so you aren't billed separately for each lot. The best step is to call your local property appraiser or assessor's office and ask what paperwork they require. In Horry County, SC (Myrtle Beach area) for example, we've helped clients combine adjoining lots, which not only simplified taxes but also increased resale value by marketing it as one larger parcel. If you're considering this for long-term planning, it can also impact future building options or resale strategy, so checking with zoning and planning is wise.
