Garden City Realty Testimonials

Great vacation Rental! Clean and great location!! Love!!!

Our rental was ready when we arrived, it was clean and the location is wonderful. I personally have stayed in the Horizon East building on multiple occasions. I feel very secure in the building and it is very well kept. Our unit was very nice and we loved our stay and we are planning on booking again next year. Garden City Reality was wonderful to work with also and made everything very easy. I would recommend this location to anyone.

Loved our week at the Sea Grass. The house was very roomy for our family. We normally stay oceanfront but we wanted to try something new. If this house was on the ocean it would be perfect!!! It has been updated and beautifully decorated. Loved the antique furniture in the bedrooms.

We had a great time. This was our 5th year staying in Atalaya and 2nd time with unit 1505.

Surf Master 613 was very spacious. The view was amazing and I would highly recommend a stay.

I will rate Garden City Realty five star. Have been impressed for many years with the service and accommodations. My husband and I are gladly recommending any of their properties. The locations are perfect for any and all activities at the beach. Have already made reservations again this year at the Surfmaster as we do every year.

Loved our stay in a Garden City Realty rental this past October. The house was clean, well equipped, allowed dogs, and had a great view of the Surfside Beach. Never having stayed in a beach house rental before, we were skeptical but GCR made everything easy for us! No issues or problems. Even though the house we stayed in is no longer available for rent, we will use GCR to find our next beach paradise later this year!

I have stayed in the same house for seven years. It is always clean and I am always impressed with the service I receive from Garden Citiy Realty. That is why I keep coming back.

We have had the pleasure of using Garden City Realty for our property rental for over 15 years. GCR has the best team of seasoned professionals who treat our property as they would their own! They are definitely a 5 Star Team all the way around!

The staff is very helpful and friendly! We enjoyed our stay in Horizon East!

Everything was great, easy check-in and check-out. We have already used Garden City for our 2019 vacation.

Courteous staff, knowledgeable staff, clean furnishings & dwellings, and fair prices. Locations are always near stores and restaurants. You are dealing with professionals who really show they enjoy what they do!! Always a positive experience.

Garden City Realty has managed my property for at least ten years, I have been very pleased with them, they are very professional and courteous, The Girls in Owner Services are superb. My daughter and I and her two young grandchildren arrived at the condo around 7:30 P.M. on a Saturday evening to find my key would not work, it seemed to have gotten bent, she was almost in panic mode, I called GCR, their guy came in a matter of minutes and let us in, gave us a key and the next day brought more keys. If you are looking for a rental agent I would highly recommend them, they have done an excellent job of renting my property.

Going on our 19th year owning our beach house (SEACAMP) with Garden City Realty as our management company, we can only say how happy we are with management in helping us maintain, keep safe & secure, and provide excellent rental services. They treat us like trusted family members!

We have been Garden City Realty Clients for 14 years. In the few instances when there have been issues with Renters, or Garden City Realty, they were always resolved completely in a timely manner. GCR Staff could not be nicer or more willing to help.

Garden City and Staff have been beyond exceptional. Every request and need has been met promptly and courteously. We have dealt with Garden City for over 40 years.

For more than 40 years I have worked with Garden City Realty on my vacation rentals. Most important to me are their employees. They work diligently to make sure that when you come to Garden City, you're coming to another side of heaven. I thought the ultimate was having an oceanfront home. But, when we bought our condo at Marlin Quay, I knew I was in heaven watching the sunset over Murrells Inlet in the late afternoon. Part of this is because Garden City Realty; their people have been my family. You will find that when you are dealing with them, you will never be disappointed.

We have owned our unit for a number of years and visited frequently until I retired five years ago. We never rented the place, but when we moved to the Midwest it sat vacant for long periods. We didn’t want to part with the unit. Our children still live in the area and we enjoy visiting periodically, and they also liked to use it occasionally. We contacted with Drew at Garden City Realty, and have been very pleased with their service and ability to place rentals. Our occupancy is around 90%, and we simply block out the times our extended family want to use the unit.

Our dream come true! We bought #304 at Surf Master in 2018, as first-time renters Drew and all of the GCR family has gone above and beyond to guide us in the right direction. Everyone at GCR has been very patient with us and helpful.

Nice condo that is well-furnished. Freezer makes an occasional jackhammer sound. Maintenance stopped by to repair heavy drip from the toilet tank. Can opener was nearing its end.

*It was a pleasure working with Jean. She worked with several of our friends and we all thought she was great.  (Nan B., Murrrells Inlet, SC)

*If you want the best, call Garden City Realty!!! Betty C. Charleston, SC

*William was very helpful in assisting and providing answers to our questions a well as a delight to work with! John Y. Rock Hill, SC

*Loved working with Douglas, he went above and beyond to help me. He even offered to move my furniture. I will highly recommend GCR. Thank again for everything - Becky C. Murrells Inlet, SC

*I couldn't be happier with Garden City Realty.  Norm Clay is an incredible Realtor. I'm just so appreciative of his help to find me the perfect home. Jamie M. Myrtle Beach, SC 

June was wonderful. She was always cheerful and always willing to do whatever we desired. She was a real trooper in dealing with the problems posed by a hurricane that refused to go away. She twice made and canceled reservations for us to look at homes. She was so kind trying to reassure me that I shouldn’t feel badly. We are so thankful that June was our agent and found the perfect place for us. -Mary K. Pawleys Island, SC

*Bobby Street was very professional. He worked hard to market our property and was always available to answer our questions. We recommend him highly. -Johnny J. White Rock, SC

Perfect location, very nice condo... clean and well-equipped kitchen and all linens! Jackiw Alston was charming and made me feel welcome. I'll return there as soon as I can.

I want to say this has by far been the best rental we have stayed in and we have stayed in a lot through other companies or Garden City Reality. The home was very nice and clean. I wanted a home away from home and I got that plus more. The view to the beach was spectacular. There was plenty of space for everyone and all the amenities were perfect. The only downfall was the access to the elevator. We could not use it so we drag a lot of luggage upstairs from outside and inside. Mary tried to help with the situation. She was very helpful in our stay. We loved the rental so much that we extended our stay for a day. Mary was very instrumental in assisting me with the extra day. I had left my wallet at the beach house. I was in a panic. She assured me that I could call in the very next morning to pay. Things worked out fine. I want to thank her for all her help and assistance. She was a joy to speak with and she always had a smile on her face. Hope to see you next year!!!

Perfect spot!

We had a great stay recently at Moonlighting.  We are looking forward to next years stay at Mariposa.  You all do Great work! -Gary C. Newark, OH

My wife and I are from N.J. We first contacted Brian White via email and let him know we were interested in moving to S.C., Murrells Inlet area in the near future,  he immediately put me on his listing list and sent me properties to look at. This past weekend Oct 6-8,  we flew from N.J. to myrtle beach and stayed in Pawleys Island. Saturday morning we had the opportunity to meet Brian for the first time. He spent most of the day with us,  showing us properties as well as showing the local area. He went above and beyond with SC southern hospitality even recommending Lee's for dinner. I cannot tell you how wonderful an experience we had with Brian. We will be buying here in Murrells Inlet in the near future and we will be using Brian to represent us. He is an asset to your Realty firm and should be commended for his expertise. Cannot wait for the next step. We are flying back to N.J. with a great experience all because of Brian!
 

Just a note of thanks for the 80% reservation refund for our Florence-ruined vacation in Garden City.  We hope to be able to vacation there next year, as we were looking forward to being first timers to your beach and the Surf Master condos.  Our prayers continue for those NC & SC people affected by the hurricane and the beautiful environment in both states that will need recovery.

Again, thank you for considering, keeping to your verbal word and refunding at least part of the monies paid as we did not purchase the insurance. You can be assured we will next time!

We are completely satisfied with you and the company.  Never duck a question and give a timely and straight forward response every time.

We purchased our two bedroom condo at Surf Master by the Sea through Garden City Realty in 2018 with the help of one of their realtors, Drew Dellinger making it possible.  After a nearly complete remodel, including new bathrooms, doors, paint, lights, fans, appliances, furniture, granite, pictures, and floors we had to decide if we really wanted to rent the unit out to offset some of the cost of ownership.  Mr. Dellinger suggested that Drew McElveen and his team at Surf Master were highly regarded, with trepidation we decided to go with them to rent our condo. It was a very hard decision as we just invested around $40,000 in remodeling and have rented out beach condos previously with both positive and negative management experiences.  With the end of the first year, we are happy to provide an excellent recommendation for Drew and his team.  They are very accommodating, understanding and provide excellent feedback, suggestions, reporting, and email updates that far exceeded our expectations.  We have been very pleased and plan to continue working with them in the future.

*Jean Schmaus was great,  from meeting with her at our condo to the final closing! Jean is comfortable to talk to and getting answers to our questions. She is the BEST!  (Donna E. Asheville, NC)

We were greeted with a friendly, helpful smile at Garden City Realty, our first time booking through this establishment.  We have been vacationing in the Myrtle Beach area for nearly 30 years.  Hurricane Florence was expected to hit landfall on the east coast, but nobody was sure where or when.  The lady who checked me in assured me that I would be kept up-to-date on any information, as soon as it became available.  She was true to her word, too, emailing updates of the hurricane and what to do, should we have to leave early.  We enjoyed two great days of sunshine and warmth when the mandatory evacuation came.  We left early the next morning, ahead of the pending arrival of Florence.  Mr. B's Getaway was beautiful, spacious and so inviting...we felt immediately at home.  We were crushed to have to leave our oceanfront paradise so soon.  The location was wonderful, close to restaurants, groceries, shops, attractions and, of course, the beach.  We pray all is well with Mr. B's and that we can visit again next year, Lord willing.

*Drew Streett was very knowledgeable about the area.  He knew what we needed in a property and delivered that property. -Leigh B. Murrells Inlet, SC 

*Drew did an outstanding job, he was always available when we called. - Tracy M. Keeling, VA

June Hiller is a wonderful realtor. Our property sold quickly and close to asking price. Darryl T. Pittsburgh, PA

It would be hard to find a better place to stay. The condo was beautifully decorated and the decor was very nice.

It has been a pleasure knowing and dealing with Drew and his staff for the past five years.  This is our first experience owning a condo and he has made our experience stress free knowing that anytime there is any kind of an issue or crisis, such as the recent Hurricane Florence, Drew keeps us updated and informed about our property.  Living in New York and owning a condo in SC is difficult but with Drew informing us of any issues our minds are at ease.  For example, there was a problem with the HVAC but Drew and Dan contacted the appropriate vendor and the problem was solved.  In conclusion, our experience at Surf Master and knowing Drew and his staff are a pleasurable one.

Rarely, have we found a business with such genuine integrity and concern for their clients. For the past two years, they have enthusiastically supported us, by donating linens, commission, and cleaning as we donated a week in our condo to raise money for a (local to us) hospital foundation. Additionally, over the past year, their attentiveness and thoughtfulness have eliminated nearly all of our stress. We have been working hard to update our condo and keep it nice for both renters and ourselves. We had many questions and logistical challenges with this as we are 5 hours away. Through it all, Drew, Dan, and Vicky were so accommodating and helpful. They prioritized meetings with us when we were in town. They brainstormed with us to overcome some challenges. They smoothly facilitated major transitions such as appliance replacement, while keeping guests happy. My family and I affectionately refer to them as the “Dream Team.” To say we are impressed with Garden City Realty, would be an understatement. They are great people. We count them as friends and we’d be lost without them!!

Thank you Garden City Realty for a successful rental season. This spring we purchased a beachfront condo at Surf Master by the Sea. This was our first experience with vacation rentals. We are very pleased with the GCR team. Everyone has been so responsive and helpful. Looking forward to 2019.

Drew McElveen and the staff at Garden City Realty (Surf Master by the Sea) are a great Property Management Company to work with.   We receive regular updates on how the rental season is progressing.  At the end of the season, all rental unit owners receive an evaluation of how their rental unit compared to others in the program for this year and the previous year. The office is run in a very professional manner. Drew has given us great suggestions as to ways we can increase our rental income and worked with us on finding and scheduling contractors to complete any renovations and updates needed.   He is always prompt in answering our questions via email or phone calls. We have found that Drew is very reliable and we put our full faith in him and staff to manage our unit in the way that will best benefit both us and our renters. In the past years, we have seen an increase in our rental income thanks to his recommendations and management.

Big enough to sleep my family and each room had own bath which helps greatly.
Kitchen equipped good for cooking.

Working with Drew Dellinger at Garden City Realty exceeded any of our expectations. He is knowledgeable, patient, fun and extremely thorough. We were happy with our results and would recommend him to anyone!  - Fayetteville, GA

We stayed at this property the last full week of July 2018. The house offered plenty of space for all 12 of us. This was our first stay on the inlet and we were blown away by the views, especially watching the sunset every evening. The walk to the ocean was approximately 5 minutes and we had plenty of beach to ourselves. We did have a small problem with a leak coming from the top floor dripping in the downstairs bathroom, but Garden City Realty responded quickly to our concern. Will definitely consider vacationing here again.

Pooh's Corner was amazing. House was beautiful. Pool was great. Our family plans on staying there every year if available.

Bobby was communicative, responsive and helped make my dream a reality! - Surfside Beach, SC

*My experience with Denise Coleman and Garden City Realty was great. She went above and beyond in all areas of my sale and purchase.  She helped me find a new home, not just the sale of a property!

(Murrells Inlet, SC)

Great Experience with June Hiller! (Concord, NC)

The Only thing I would have to say about our room, is I didn't like that when I was on the balcony it was right over the pool area, so we had no privacy, I felt like I was at the pool with everyone else. I would next time stay on floors higher up.

This house had more than enough room for our family and we loved the closed in deck. The only suggestion I could make would be to add a mattress topper to the beds because they weren't very comfortable. The house is in great shape and was very up to date. Loved it!

This is a beautiful location. The property owners have thought of just about everything when it comes to the furnishings and accessories. We really enjoyed our stay and will look to rent here again.

We were referred to Drew by acquaintances that used his services in 2017 and he did not disappoint!  We are from California and not familiar with the area.  Drew was not only helpful in showing us homes that fit our wants and needs, he also gave us valuable information about the area and each neighborhood.  Drew promptly returned every phone call and text.  We highly recommend Drew Dellinger for all your real estate needs! - Murrells Inlet, SC

Plenty of room. Beautiful condo with perfect view of the ocean and swimming pool. Loved it!

We spent two glorious weeks by the sea with perfect weather and very comfortable and secure accomodations.Who could ask for more?

This was an awesome vacation. Property was beautiful; condo was ready when we arrived, convenient to park, pick up keys, and get in within 15 minutes! View was fabulous. Minor maintenance issues were addressed immediately.

Bobby Street did an excellent job! He is professional and went above and beyond to take care of things! - Atlanta, GA

Wonderful house for a large group! The house was clean, well maintained, roomy and comfortable! The rental company was easy to work with and very efficient...check in went off without a hitch.

We all look forward to returning!

We are out of state/cross country buyers and depended heavily on Drew’s expertise. He was recommended to us by past clients and I can see why. There was never a phone call or text that was not answered in a timely manner. Drew educated us about the area and on our original visit showed us many properties in many different neighborhoods. On a subsequent visit (without my husband) Drew was patient, and accommodating. He even took the time to show local friends the homes we were interested in to Determine if it was worth my traveling from San Francisco to see them. Turns out it was worth making another trip to Murrells Inlet, and on that trip we made an offer. With Drew’s assistance and conferencing in my husband in CA, (there were two other offers) we put forth a great offer and got the home of our dreams. Can’t wait to move in at the end of June!! I heartily recommend Drew whether you’re buying or selling. He is honest, trustworthy and dependable. We look forward to having a celebratory toast with him once we get there from CA!  - San Jose, CA  [Drew Dellinger]

Nice to have the dock and boat and to be able to walk across the street to the ocean. We love the marsh atmosphere. Well equipped kitchen. We will always choose Inlet Joy.

We were for the week to visit family.This was the best maintained rental we have seen by far we would certainly recommend this unit to our friends.

We enjoyed our stay in this unit - 605 - It was very compatible with what we wanted to do for this vacation. Would probably rent it again if and when we go back for another vacation in South Carolina.

We loved this unit for our Spring Break! It is beautifully decorated and brand new, down to the cabinetry and appliances. We found it to be spotless and really well-equipped: kitchen utensils, beach accessories like umbrellas, wagon, chairs, and games and movies.. The view is amazing...the unit is shaped like a triangle on the beachfront side so that the balcony is actually almost over the sand, and because it is on the first floor, you feel like you are on the beach even while inside.. The pool and hottub can be seen to the left - nice for watching out for kids - but the whole view is unobstructed beach. The condo is spacious and open with plenty of comfortable seating and excellent TVs and wifi. Beds were wonderful. Bathrooms are nothing special but are more than adequate. Parking is convenient on a deck right outside this unit - just a short walk down the breezeway. We enjoyed the location - a few doors down from the Conch Cafe and only a mile from the pier and town center. The property and grounds were very clean and attended to on a daily basis. Management proved to be pleasant and easy to work with when we had a few questions and wanted to extend our stay. This is such a great value for the relatively inexpensive rental fee! We recommend and will be envious of anyone getting to enjoy some time here!!

My husband and I continue to be more than satisfied with Garden City Realty but we must add that Drew McElveen, Surf-Master by the Sea’s on-site manager has been exceptional. He continues to keep us updated on changes and events not only through emails but also with pictures…If we have a question, his rapid reply eliminates any worry or concerns we might have. We feel very fortunate to have such a great team working for us!

I have been a property owner for 30 years in Garden City.   I have been very excited about the occupancy rate of my unit for the past four years with Garden City Realty.  I can’t say enough about the efficiency of the staff, their communication and the ability to resolve conflict when it occurs.  Whether we are dealing with a water heater, air conditioning, or a hurricane the proactive approach they have of handling both the renter and the owner is fair, equitable and leads to long term profitable rents.  I would recommend  Garden City Realty to anyone who needs a company they can trust and looking for good cash flow from their investment property at the beach.

My husband bought Surfmaster #305 in May of 2016 after selling a townhouse.  We didn’t intend to rent it but South Carolina law required that we honor existing rentals for 90 days, basically the summer of 2016. We placed it with Garden City Realty.  Garden City Realty’s on-site team was so friendly and helpful and made renting so easy for us folks who are not local that we decided to continue to rent our place.  In addition, we purchased a second unit, #107, in January of 2017 and remodeled it.  The new unit had not been rented and we feared it would take several years for it to build a good rental base.  Garden City Realty really worked hard for us and through their efforts, it is now rented all weeks from May through August of 2018. We are ecstatic!

I am extremely pleased with Garden City Realty. They have been very helpful in renting my property. I called on them frequently for advice and was always confident of their ability to follow thru. Everyone was accommodating and very pleasant to work with. I could not have been successful had it not been for their hard working staff. Yes, oh yes, I would ‘reach out’ to GCR again, should the need occur. It has been my pleasure.

We were very satisfied with our condo. It was clean, comfortable and exactly as the photos portrayed. The kitchen had everything needed to prepare meals. Staff were friendly and helpful. I will definitely return to Surf Master for future vacations. There are only very minor cosmetic issues that the owner should consider repairing.

Awesome stay! House was just as advertised. Not fancy but "old school." Great location, clean, and comfortable. Would definitely rent again.

Awesome location and access to anything you need.

a nice condo, loved our stay,great location,loved the ocean front. Loved the balcony it was beautiful decorated.a clean condo,nice furniture.great place for a vacation.

Great house. Great location, close walk to beach and shopping

We enjoyed our stay and the use of A Place At The Beach 1K. Very well equipped and nicely appointed. The only thing we felt it needed was a new mattress in the master and for the pull out. Both have seen better days. Other than that, we loved the rental!

We love it here. The condo sleeps 6 comfortably. The master bath is small, but they all are. It is easy to grab your things and head to the beach or walk around to the pool and pier. The laundry is easy to get to if needed. Perfect for those families that love quiet and the ability to do a variety of activities. The property description was accurate. The property had just been cleaned, I just had to call because they forgot to pick up the linens from the previous renters but they picked them up within 20 minutes. There is a slight crack in the tub that I sent a picture of to the Realty company. There were wasp nests in the trees out front of the building and in the areas around the pool. I did report them to the man that takes care of the pool, but they were still there when we left.
I would definitely recommend this property to a friend or relative. We were able to go to Broadway, the Pier at Garden City, and some local shopping - make sure that you hit Angela's on Atlantic!

Perfectly located condo. right by the beach.
Swimming pool clean. Condo was clean, beds very comfortable.
Nice decor.
Would come back anytime!

It was great!

My family has rented this condo for the past 5 years. We don't want to stay anywhere else. It's well equipped with tile and hardwood floors, 2 king beds, and we already have rented it for a 2 week stay next summer. The owners really know how to prepare well for beach guests.

My family and I had plenty of room, loved the location, and having a washer and dryer and dishwasher. Loved the screened porch with fans and then the deck to sit on at night! The private walkway was perfect, it makes it so much better coming off the beach to rinse things off and not carry it on the deck. The open plan downstairs makes it fun for cooking and interacting with everyone. I hope to be able to get the house again next summer. It will depend on who will go and share the rental fee. Thanks again!!!!!

excellent rental experience. The realty people were pleasant easy to work with and took care of 2 minor issues in a very timely manner.

Good location. House worked well for all of us. Good experience.

We were very pleased with the condo and would not hesitate to rent it again.

Our stay at Surf Master 302 couldn't have been any better! Amazing view, awesome, clean and up to date rooms. Felt like home, but better! Will definitely be back!

We purchased our Surfmaster condo, Unit 910 in Feb 2017 and were quickly comforted by GCR’s ability to service the rental unit from strong social marketing, quick maintenance support, fantastic bookings and all while keeping the unit immaculate!  As first time renters and with a unit that had not been on a rental program in the past - we are more than thrilled that by mid-June we were showing over $33,000 in potential 2017 bookings ($23,000 booked to date)!  Nothing short of great service, great advice, and a great partnership with the GCR team.  We are already looking forward to finding the next unit that they help partner with us on!!

This year, we purchased and remodeled a beachfront home. This is our first venture owning a vacation rental property and we have been very pleased with our partnership with Garden City Realty. Everyone we have met and worked with, whether in senior management, real estate sales, guest services, housekeeping, maintenance or office staff, have all been responsive, helpful and professional. We could not have chosen a better group to work with, and would highly recommend Garden City Realty.

The house is accommodating, spacious, clean and perfect large groups. We had a total of 16 people, and had plenty of room. The location is perfect, with personal space on the beach. The pool is also a great convenience. The updates were fabulous. This was our second stay at Ocean Air, and won't be our last. We can do as much or as little as we want during our stay. Very enjoyable and relaxing. Our favorite vacation.

It was awesome can't wait to rent again

Great house and location. Would definitely rent again on next trip to Garden City.

House was fantastic and everything was just perfect. Could not have asked for a better beach experience, thanks Garden City Realty!

Very relaxing. Great location & value

Our stay at The Metzler house was wonderful. There is nothing that I would have changed, if I could have. Even the weather was great! Thank you, Ila Dalrymple

This year was our ninth year staying at this property (we rented this through two other realty companies before renting it through Garden City Realty). It is a GREAT house for the size of our family, and the location is fantastic. The only thing missing in this house is an ice maker. You will not find a better realty company or staff than at Garden City! Even with Hurricane Matthew deciding to visit us this year, we had a FABULOUS vacation. Looking forward to 2017.

we only stayed 4 nights because of hurricane Michael we were pleased with the way management
handled the situation.

We have owned our Surf Master property since 1990.   We have seen a lot of changes throughout the years with realtors and property managers.  Garden City has been our realtor since they acquired it in 2001.  Drew McElveen, who has been our property manager for the past two years, and his staff, are a breath of fresh air.  They are all very diligent about keeping owners informed of what is going on with our property and in the Garden City area.  Questions are answered in a timely fashion and they try their best to accommodate owner needs.  We would highly recommend them to be your property manager.

We love coming here to Garden City and Garden City Realty makes everything so easy and enjoyable. The penthouse is wonderful and we always find everything in great condition for our stay. Everything is very clean and beautiful.

"Thank you!" to Garden City Realty Team for another great rental season at the beach. You guys have far exceeded our expectations. As you know, we were using another property management company for the previous several years and were hesitant to change. I now can definitely say, ‘I am glad we switched!’ Our multiple properties have all had record revenue this year. Revenue is good, but combined with the friendly GCR service…it was FANTASTIC! We really appreciate the special time you gave us as we learned the GCR process. We have really enjoyed getting to know the GCR team both over the phone in our many conversations and it was also fun to meet you guys in person. It was easy to see you guys really enjoy what you are doing each day. We look forward to many more years of partnering together and sincerely thank you for all you do for us and our guests.

We purchased unit 904 in 2006 and have had Garden City Realty as our realtor every year since.  They are like a member of the family.  Our condo is rented almost every week of the year and on a monthly basis from November through March. This year will be our most profitable year so far.  People tell me to rent our condo ourselves and keep all the rental money but believe me the small amount that goes to Garden City Realty is well worth it.  They are quick to handle any problems our renters have.  I have had a book in my unit where renters can comment and every time they talk about how great the people are at Garden City Realty.  You would not believe the “little things” they do for you and your guest at no charge to you. Take the pressure off and let Garden City Realty put people in your unit.

I purchased my condo PH I at Surf Master in November 2015. That said I had no idea what expect, but when met with Drew McElveen for the first time I instantly felt confidence in him and Garden city realty. During my first rental season, I have nothing but praise for Garden City Realty. They keep me informed of any issues and resolve them quickly. I know Drew and his team at Surf Master tend to renters needs. Looking forward to 2017 season!

I can't say ENOUGH on how good we were treated while at Surfmaster just prior to Hurricane Mathew.  My husband was sent to the hospital and I was trying to juggle all that had to be done. The Crew at the Surfmaster office offered to take my dog out for his needed duties while I was gone.  Thanks for such a great personal touch.  It feels so good that Garden City office at Surfmaster was so gracious to me in my trying time.  I can't THANK THEM ENOUGH.  They are the best.

Enjoyable, clean, well furnished

This was our first season owning a rental home of any kind, and we could not be happier with Garden City Realty. Being new to this, we have had many questions and the staff has been so kind and enthusiastic, walking us through each step of the process. knowing that their assistance is only a phone call or email away has been priceless. We would give them the highest recommendation possible and look forward to our continued partnership.

I want you to know how appreciative I am of your very fresh and proactive services to condo owners in Surfside - way above my expectations and general area property management services. You were very valuable in helping me renovate our unit’s kitchen from long distance by providing on-site market-preference guidance, measurements, and direct access to vendors.  I especially feel the warmth of your staff when receiving phone calls about rental preferences and on-the-spot requests outside the parameters of advertised rates and occupancy. The staff doesn’t merely check the boxes, but rather tries for mutually beneficial outcomes.  Your staff may be three states away from my primary home, but they are always a friendly phone call away.  Thanks again for treating my property as if it were your own.

the family totally enjoyed the vacation. the house was exactly what we wanted. The porch facing the ocean was the perfect way to relax . the house was great.

I really enjoyed my stay in Garden City. The condo I rented was beautiful and clean. The weather was perfect as we're the people. That is why I vacation in Garden City for the past 25 years.

We would like to send a great big “THANK YOU!” to everyone at Garden City Realty. We are just now wrapping up our first year as new owners of a vacation rental property at the beach. Thanks to GCR it was an even more successful year than we had hoped. When we bought our property last Fall we had no prior experience in vacation rentals and no idea how even to get started. We knew we had a lot to learn and we knew we needed help.

So we called you at Garden City Realty. From our very first contact and throughout the entire year, everyone at GCR has been friendly, extremely helpful, and thoroughly professional. We could not have been more satisfied. You answered our many questions, made some great suggestions, did a superb job marketing our property, and helped us be good hosts for our guests. 

We’ve learned a lot in our first year. Mostly, we learned that we picked the right management company when we picked Garden City Realty. Thanks again for everything! 

Garden City Realty always assists us in a very timely basis in regards to the upkeep and rental of our condo.  Their advice in connecting us with an excellent designer/contractor for updating our unit has yielded a much more “coastal” atmosphere.  This refreshing has significantly improved rental bookings ($40,000+ in gross rental income in 2016) and enhanced the vacation experience for our guest.  We are very pleased with the many years of working with the team at Garden City Realty and happy to recommend their services to all.

I've rented from this company for years with my family and I have never been disappointed!!! I will continue to rent from GCR for life!! Always polite, happy to help, it really is like going home!!!

We arrived on saturday and We had a problem with the 2nd bedroom shower dripping and leaking water into the closet but the problem was fixed on Monday afternoon, we had to have them check the cable on the TVs since they did not work either and the maintenance men we very helpful. The property was clean and the manager provided excellent service to fixing any issues we had.
we would stay there again, nicely equipped. Master bedroom mattress a little too firm for me and my husband but other than that great condo!!

Wonderful experience! You have a beautiful view of the ocean and on the back side of the property the view of the marsh could not be better. We rented a golf cart. like so many people do in Garden City. and we were at the beach access in less than a minute! The top deck is like no other in that area we enjoyed that view so much and what a nice place to relax. We will be back!

My favorite was the bed in the master.. Am used to a king size but this mattress was so comfortable I wanted to take it with me!!
Great place to stay!!

Very nice

My family and I have vacationed at Garden City for the past 10 years and always stayed at the Beach House in different condos as we love the location. From this point on we will ONLY stay in 305. We will plan our vacation around the availability of this condo. It is by far the best condo we have stayed in. It has all the amenities from home right down to the Dyson sweeper. The décor is very tastefully done. Kudos to the owners...you have done it up right!

113 Steps was a wonderful experience. Home away from home. It was stocked with everything you need...especially the kitchen!!

This sweet place is very spacious and has an inviting decor with a nice kitchen, which includes granite counter tops, stainless appliances, and all you need to cook. The wood floors are nice and the A/C works great! The beds are fairly comfortable, although the headboards could use some adjustment. The couches are cozy but the cushions don't stay put. Both full bathrooms are nice and have clean shower curtains and plenty of storage, as well. The cleaning girl is so very nice and does an incredible job. This is a great place!

Visit twice yearly. Hate to leave.

We have fell in love with the Sun Dial, it is our home away from home. I love the balcony view and the short walk to the pool and ocean. It is clean and equipped with everything you may need. Can't wait to go back!

Our experience with Garden City Realty at Surfmaster has been outstanding.  Drew McElveen's management skills are nothing less than spectacular.   Any time we visit our condo it is always clean and meticulous. Garden City's maid service under the direction of Vicky Cooper gives so much attention to detail.  We are pleased to be part of GCR at Surfmaster.

House is very well equipped. Pool area was very clean. We like the additional concrete walkway that was installed since our stay last year. Ample seating inside and outside. Beds are very comfortable. Fenced in yard is great for kids as well as our dog.

What a treasure it has been to work with Garden City Realty.  We have had the pleasure of working with the company since we purchased in Surf Master in the year 2009.  Since that day, the staff has gone out of their way to make sure our guests stay happy and the condo is taken care of.  Though life circumstances have changed over the years, the staff at Garden City Realty has remained consistent and reliable.  We are thankful for our relationship with them and hope to continue doing business for many years to come.

Everything was as represented and accurate property description. Nice condo, clean and well maintained. Professional management company.

Excellent

Great room great place already checking into purchasing a 2 bedroom there.

I appreciate Garden City Realty because they are like an extended family- always there whenever needed.

I purchased an oceanfront condo at Surf Master in June of this year.  I live out of state and it was a big concern for me to know that my property was in good hands.  Garden City Management has an on-site staff at Surf Master that does a great job and that was one of the big reasons for my decision to choose them.  I would definitely recommend Garden City Realty to manage and take care of your property.  I have been very satisfied with the response to any concerns and the property has been rented every week since the first week we purchased up to the first week of Oct.

This house was a great place to have a family get-away We had 10 adults and 4 children with plenty of room. The house is nicely furnished, extremely clean and well-appointed. The beds were all very comfortable. The beach is literally steps away. We particularly enjoyed the screened in porch with rockers and the top deck off the master bedroom. It is centrally located-close to a grocery store and great restaurants. Only wish was that the dining table seated more than 8. Will definitely rent again.

As first-time owners of beach property, the staff at Garden City Realty has eased all of our concerns about renting our property. From purchase to ownership the staff has gone out of their way to make sure we were taken care of.  The onsite staff is professional and very friendly.  They address our guests concerns, promptly take care of any needed repairs and manage our property as if it were their own.  We are grateful to have Garden City Realty taking care of us and our property.  We couldn't ask for a better team and cannot thank them enough.

We have had the pleasure of knowing and working with Garden City Realty for one year now... No other company treated us with genuine interest, attention, thoroughness, and professionalism.   We are happy with their knowledge and trust them to manage our property.  After only one year with GCR, our revenues from rentals exceeded the prior year by over 30%.  We are thrilled to continue our partnership with Garden City Realty.

Loved the window view. The bedroom sizes were great. Close to eating places, either a few Gary away or easy access.. Especially loves the view in the evenings.

Over all the house and our stay was very good. AC was cold, always had plenty of hot water and location was wonderful. I would suggest the owners fix the side entrance door as it is stuck shut and would not open. Not good in an emergency. Also a few more chairs on the front porch would be nice as the three provided was not enough for the 6 of us who stayed there. They might also want to add a cheap outside grill. Other than that all was good.

Our condo was everything we had hoped for and more. It was SOoo nice to have Garden City Realty,Inc in the SAME building. They were very helpful & friendly about everything. The location was fantastic. We loved being right on the beach & it wasn't overcrowded. We definitely will be back!!!!!!!!!??

Love the house. We have stayed here for the last 3 years. Already looking forward to next year! Great for big family we have 20 each year.

Nice layout, everything in good condition. great location. Nice amenities. Beach perfect and close. Pools nice and well maintained. As advertised.

After examining many places and homes from the shores of NC and SC, all our expectations came true when my husband and I found Garden City and then Dr. Sea. Wanting plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms for our family of 8 adults and 6 grandchildren, Dr. Sea was a hit. My husband and I on the top floor and children and grands below. I can't say enough about the short walk to the beach and of course the pool! My son, from CA, and 3 grandchildren loved surfing. The youngest grandson,4, learned how to swim without floaters. We would recommend Lee's Inlet Kitchen, Sara J's and Marina Quay for dinner. The elevator was great considering we had visited Costco before checking in. I forget how many times we walked to the pier for ice cream, pictures and, of course, the arcade! I would have no hesitation in renting again and would recommend Dr. Sea to any family looking to bond again.

We had a great stay. The view from Inlet Pointe may be the best anywhere in the area. The addition of wi-fi and linens included was an added plus since last years visit. We have already booked for next year.

Our place was nice we enjoyed it very much! Great price! Elevator would've been nice due to being on 3rd floor!

The view makes you feel like you are on the ocean. It was beautiful.

My family and I have been vacationing in Garden City for 14 years. This year was the best ever! Short walk to the beach, great dock for fishing, heated pool and beautiful house with plenty of room. We have found our future rental for years to come!

pleasant

Always a pleasure to rent from mr.& mrs E

Heaven Can Wait was everything we dreamed it would be. The house was beautiful and vary spacious for our large family. We had enough to keep us busy even though the weather wasn't good during our stay. I would recommend this house to anyone. Garden City Realty was wonderful to work with and we would come again.

Perfect location and great house.

As always it was fantastic.

I have been with Garden City Realty since 1983 when I purchased my first beach house in South Carolina. I would have no one else look after my home and I have many times been approached by other realty companies in the area. Garden City Realty provides me with good renters and the maintenance department looks after the house as if it were their own. I could not be any happier, even after 17 years.

This was a wonderful place to stay I would diffinatly stay again.

Home was clean and well maintained with all amenities as described in brochure. the location was just what we wanted..would highly recommend this property for families with children, and also for older folks ..the wooden walkway to the beach is great, the out door shower with both hot and cold water a real treat . also the "gathering " rooms were more than adequate and the inclosed sun porch a dream .. thx so much !!!

Our vacation rental experience was wonderful! Very friendly staff and beautiful accommodations!

We have been guests are Surfmaster for 5 years, it was our first time in this unit. We loved the 2nd floor. View was fantastic. You are not directly over the pool or hot tub so you don't get a lot of noise from that area. Taking elevator was an option but not a necessity. Unit was clean and had updated furnishings.

When you think of Garden City Beach, Garden City Realty comes to mind. Garden City Realty grew up with Garden City Beach and have done a fabulous job of helping the area become a favorite place to visit for years. They are up to date and always handle everything with ease and satisfaction. They are like family.

Only complaint was with the local police ticketing
unsuspecting parking violations.

We have stayed at Compass Rose #22 since the 1980s and Compass Rose #21 for about 7 years, I believe. We appreciate the location and view! It is a nice place to stay! The condo owners desperately need to rebuild the wood walkway from the pool area to the beach with wood and nails sticking up, and it needs to extend all the way to the beach to avoid wearing down the dunes as well as protect people's feet from the hot sand. The stairs outside leading to the pool are in need of repair of the plastic coverings that are slipping off and the white paint that is chipping off on the top side(they did repaint the underside of the stairs already). Unit #21 is a great place to stay! It has tile floors throughout and a great screened porch with an excellent view! Love the pool area as well!

Sea Biscuit provided the right amount of space to accommodate 15 people well. The spacious bedrooms with private bathrooms were awesome. The living room and kitchen combination was spacious with plenty of room for the little ones to run around. The house was very clean and in well-maintained condition. The elevator was great for Grandma and transporting luggage to the appropriate floor. Parking under the house and driveway was excellent for the number of cars required for our party. The private pool provided everyone with a cool place to relax but not enough shade. Umbrellas would add the needed shade, so we brought our own. One thing we found lacking was a second refrigerator to accommodate enough food for our needs. A mobile baby gate would provide comfort for renters with toddlers. A slight concern we encountered was when a young child stumped over the uneven cement section leading under the house. This would be a concern with the elderly also. Overall, I would highly recommed this house for a wonderful vacation.

Very pleased, Location was great. Only problem was parking hard to get cars in and out of parking spaces.

We have stayed at #216 previously, and were pleasantly surprised to find it nice and clean, and recently updated with a new flat screen tv in the living room and wifi internet. The condo is perfect for our needs. The only two drawbacks we have are 1) the AC unit apparently freezes up when placed under 72* and 2) the bedrooms could use tv upgrades to flat screens. We don't usually stay inside that much while at the beach, but this time we spent a little more time inside because of Hurricane Arthur. No Biggie!

Kids loved the pool. Location was great! WIFI was horrible and someone threw a chair off the 4th floor balcony that came within inches of hitting my 10 year old. still not happy about that.

This is the third year in a row we have stayed in this unit. We enjoy it very much and hope to be back next year:)

It was a great experience, however there were some issues with the cleanliness of the pool. From my understanding it was an issue with the pump, but it was two days before this was relayed to us. It would have been a perfect stay had the pool been in swimming conditions over the weekend when it was nice weather.

Central for golfing, large facilities, lots of bathrooms, awesome deck, great view. This is our second year for our group and we intent to come back.

We very much enjoyed our stay at Ducks in a Row!! The location is great...5 min stroll to the surf and sand. The outdoor shower is great for washing off sand before coming back into the home--kids love it! Very family-friendly home. We did think pool was heated (based on a review I read) and really did not get to utilize due to cold weather all week which was disappointing but that's the risk of going to the beach in April. We would stay here again and would recommend to a friend. Thanks!

Relaxing weekend! Wonderful view!

We had a wonderful time, and the view was great. Nice accommodations. Could not get the garden tub to work, but who needs it when you have the ocean?!

We had great vacation while staying at the Surfmaster. Our condo unit was very well decorated and comfortable. It was so relaxing to have breakfast and dinner on the deck looking at the ocean. We can't wait to go back!

EXCELLENT LOCATION BEACH WAS BEAUTIFUL SURF WAS PERFECT FOOD AWESOME GREAT SUMMER VACATION

First, Garden City Realty is first class and I had no problems dealing with their staff. When we first got to the home, we noticed the wireless router wasn't allowing us to login. I contacted GCR's office and they apologized for the inconvenience. They gave me the number of their tech guy and he promptly solved the situation!! The home itself is fantastic. Each bedroom has it's own bathroom and they are wonderfully furnished. We loved the pool area and spent every evening there. Since we had a large group (12 people), it was important that we could cook in the home for breakfast and lunch. The Kitchen is fantastic. It is a very short walk across the street to the beach which wasn't a problem. It was not far from the Garden City Pier and shopping which made the location very convenient. The only negative (which I read in the other reviews) was that the couch is in bad shape and definitely needs replaced. Overall, the Sea Wash was a wonderful home and we look forward to hopefully staying there next year!! Thank you Garden City Realty!!

Check in was easy, staff very nice. the condo was very clean and beautiful. We love Waterforde and 203 is our favorite condo so far. We love the location and everything about it.

I've been staying in OOP for many years and have stayed in many different units. Most of the time they have all had the same tired kitchen/bath cabinets. This unit has been renovated front to back. Wood flooring and built ins in the living room. But the best upgrades are the kitchen and baths. All have granite tops and upgraded cabinets.

My only complaint is that the unit took a bit to child proof for my 2 yr old. There were lots of expensive knick knack décor items that we had to move to higher ground. but if you don't have a little one then this shouldn't be a problem.

Great unit and we will most likely rent this unit again.

Everything about the rental process and the house was perfect! The realty company was great and friendly to deal with and the house was beautiful and clean! Would highly recommend.

The unit was well-stocked, especially the kitchen. The only problem was that I fell in the dark parking area near the fence after dark one night and fractured my wrist. Those parking curbs and especially the space with the square manhole cover really need to be painted with flourescent paint for the benefit of those who are unfamiliar with the parking area. I will be in a cast for at least 4 weeks--not exactly how one wants to spend his/her vacation.

Extended family of 11 people (ages 2-68) had a great time in this owner's property. The home was practically baby-proofed in its arrangement and yard fencing. Really enjoyed it.

Loved the location. Condo 106 had everything you could need. We went in May before the rates went up. Couldn't ask for better weather. Condo needs a little updating and attention but it is clean and comfortable.

Our family rents here every year for the past 13 years and we always stay at the Marlin Quay unit 103! It's like a second home and the owners maintain the unit and always have completed upgrades every year. We are always excited to see the changes! The unit is nicely decorated and is stocked with all the amenities to cook and entertain for a large group. This is a plus because we have many family members that vacation in various units at the Markin Quay and we all get together in the evenings and eat dinner together. There is also a wonderful restaurant next door called The Gulfstream. It's also wonderful to sit out on the balcony in the mornings and evenings and watch the boats coming and going in the Marina. There is a very convenient boardwalk right across the street for easy access to the beach. We cannot wait until next year!

completely satisfied with the unit we booked - it was immaculate - well-stocked - professionally decorated and with the entire complex.
Garden City Realtors - a class act!!! From booking my vacation - my check-in & check-out ... all handled flawlessly -

EXCEPT FOR THE WEATHER - it was PERFECT!

As soon as Garden City Realty opened for business close to forty years (fourty-five) ago, we put our vacation home with them with regards to summer rentals and all that entails. Through these many years, we have been more than pleased with our choice. They promptly address any concerns we have about our property and we feel they are responsive to our needs. We highly recommend Garden City Realty and we believe they will do all they can to see that your home is properly cared for and that it is rented as much as possible.

I purchased my house in February 2005 and have been working with Garden City Realty since that time. After I hired GCR as my property manager, all worries and headaches about marketing the property, tenancy matters and repairs were history. GCR’s management service has been excellent and they are always very responsive. I believe they are the premier property management company in the area; they were my first choice and continue to be my first choice.

My suggestion: Don’t buy an investment property in the Surfside Beach area unless you consider GCR as your local property manager.

We always have a great time when we come. I have rented this property numerous time and would not keep coming back if it was not worth it. The place is large enough to hold all my family and we love being close to the beach and sitting on the deck to watch the sunrise and sunset. Well worth the trip.

The Condo was beautiful and fairly clean, we did find a dead **** Roach in an open area that should have been seen by the cleaning staff. Also the sliding door going to the balcony, the runner the door slides on is wearing out and the door wants to keep going off track. Someone could be seriously injured if it should fall on them. I thought it was going to fall once when I was trying to open it and my husband had to put it back on track. Just sayin.

We always enjoy our Garden City vacations! We had exceptional dolphin sightings this year!This was a wonderfully appointed home that worked well for our family vacation. A few too many knick-knacks for dust collection! The dining room light was non-functional when we arrived, but the company was prompt with repairs! Would like for the realty company and future renters of this home to be aware that we had golf clubs stolen from under the home. We have decided that a person using the adjacent public beach access likely spied the clubs during the day, and then returned at night. They were not locked up, however they were hidden from general view by 4 cars and structures of the home. I would recommend that Garden City Realty note in their property description that this house is adjacent to the public access, or at the very least to post a reminder sign inside the home to beware of unattended outdoor belongings! Had we seen such signage, we may have locked our clubs in our cars...something we have not had to do in 3 decades of travel to this beach!

Had a great time. Kids loved it and us adults loved it.

Stayed here from Aug 18 thru aug 25. Had a nice side view of ocean and enjoyed sitting on screened porch to see it. The condo was clean and the neighbors quiet. This is a good family oriented place to stay. It did rain more than I'd like but there is plenty of things nearby to keep you occupied. I will stay here or in Garden City Beach again. Very much enjoyed my time and did not want to leave.

We had a great time. The condo was beautiful & very comfy & cozy!

excellent

This was our first stay at Mystic Tide. 2 parents, 4 teenage girls, and grandma! Beautiful household, loved the pool, location was good, room enouh to sprrad out! We will definitely be back! Thumbs up to he owners of this property!

We shared the townhouse with our daughter's family and the townhouse was great. Kitchen very well equipped, pool was very clean and children friendly, location to the beach was perfect. The grandsons loved being able to go to the pool or the beach. Our entire family had a great time and we would recommend this townhouse. We had a problem with a drain and it was fixed very quickly.

I loved staying in this room it was great and so close to the beach and everything out :) the only problem I had was the pool was dirty

Overall it is always pleasant. Mary Moody is like family instead of a company staff member. She and the other staff members always try to make our stays problem free. We have been staying at Surfmaster at least once a year for over 20 years.

the trees in front of the house are too large and block any view that one might try to enjoy from the decks. there are several light bulbs that are out and need to be replaced. the lock on the door needs to be lubricated or replaced as it doesn't work with ease.

The only thing was that you could hear the people in the hot tub very loud at night. But, other than that, our vacation was great!!!

a more authentically sc feel than other areas

very nice place

Wow! We had the best vacation- we have officially become Garden City people and will be visiting again! Thanks for such a wonderful time and being so accommodating during our visit. We made great family memories that will last a lifetime.

the condo was beatiful....... location perfect

Another great time at the beach! Only issue would be the 2 car per unit restrictions placed by OOP Management and requiring cars to have a parking pass. That was not convenient at all and made having guests to our condo to visit or for dinner more difficult than it needed to be.

Great house for family renewing!!

This is an excellent location for a late summer fall vacation. Very quiet, never heard the other renters. So nice to hear ocean during the night. Unit is clean and well maintained. We enjoyed the "nautical" decorating, especially the low country art work and still life photography. Amenities were all one could ask for in a rental condo. Would reccomend possible microwave replacement, old but usable. Wood moulding and bathroom floors starting to show some aging. Overall a good vacation rental experience. The folks from Garden City Realty are outstanding. Hope to see you next September. Glenn and Kathy, Burlington NC.

Not one thing to complain about. One of the best vacations I have taken.

We had a great time and enjoyed our vacation. Actually Ours was a great house and we loved the location. I was surprised to find that no garbage bags, toilet paper or any other supplies were in the unit. I was not treated curteously by contacts at the
rental company. Very abrupt and short with me on the phone.

We loved the common area, one of the prettiest around, loved our condo and the big balcony

Very nice accommodations, convenient location and excellent views of the ocean and the inlet. We've enjoyed staying at Waterforde for many years.

We loved Garden City! The location of the beach house was excellent! The beach and surf were perfect! All the restaurants where we dined were wonderful! Can't wait to go back!

Everything was great except the air conditioning. The A/C unit apparently is not big enough to cool a condo of this size. Beautiful condo, excellent location. Even with the A/C issue, I plan to stay here again.

We loved our Vacation in Unit 1211. It was Perfect for small family. The kitchen was very well supplies for all our cooking needs and it was in a Great Location. We've got a couple of things that were not pleasing. With a toddler in our family we felt the Balcony was very unsafe. Someone had to watch her at all times when out on it. The other was the Elevators in the building were VERY HOT with No air. We love to see a change in both of these areas before we return for our next stay. Over all we has a wonderful time and plan to return in the future.

This condo made us feel like we were on the beach, even if we were in the kitchen.

We enjoyed our stay at Carolina Nestled very much. The location was great. The house had everything thing that you would need. My only suggestion would be to pay a little more attention to the cleaning (mop floors, clean carpets). Other than that, everything was perfect! Very enjoyable:)

Looked like we were the first renters this year. Everthing was nice and clean and most was new. The only thing not perfect was the shower on the first floor was set up reverse. Hot was Cold and Cold was Hot. That first shower was not fun. Pool was not as clean as the pool in the same unit next door. The pump was very weak. Overall it was a great week.

This is our 2nd year staying at Sea Grove. We find it to be very clean, good central location, the condo suits our family of 5 extremely well.

Location, condo and rental company was excellent. Have reserved this unit again for an entire week...can't wait!

Love the house & the location. Hoping to stay there again in 2012.

Very comfortable unit, and a great location! We would definitely stay here again!

We had a wonderful time at Duneside III. We would stay there again. We are from Sumter not Sumpter SC.

No tea pot or Kettle

Drew [Dellinger] was exceptional start to finish.

Denise was excellent!

Great service in a market that sometimes is lukewarm. 

Denise Coleman has listed and sold two properties for me with Garden City Realty. One word to describe the experience... Excellent!

Best REALTOR we have ever done business with and we have bought and sold much real estate.

Jean Schmaus, the sales agent that guided me through my purchase is a professional, customer driven and is a great asset to both your organization and trade.

 I was introduced to Bobby Streett when I came to Myrtle Beach in 2011. I used his services twice and would use or recommend him again! 

The professional and personality of Jean Schmaus was outstanding. A resident of Myrtle Beach referred us to her. I would only deal with Jean, as I'm looking forward to purchasing investment property. 

Drew Dellinger was very helpful in our search for a condo at the beach! Always on top of things and even was there to Congratulate us after the closing and signing! I would recommend Drew if y'all are looking for a place in the Murrells Inlet and or Garden City area! 

A painless process buying a home with realtor Drew Dellinger. His expertise is evident in all areas. A pleasure to have worked with Garden City Realty.

Norm at Garden City Realty was very helpful, courteous and knowledgeable. I would recommend him when looking in the Myrtle Beach area.

Bobby Streett did a very good job. I would call him again!

Bobby is always patient and thorough with ALL my real estate needs. Never any pressure and HE bakes a mean Blueberry Pie... If you are looking for a true agent who is going to work for YOU than I would only call Bobby.

Awesome people, made it painless! Thanks for everything.

 Jean was wonderful! Very Helpful. 

We were very pleased with Jean Schmaus and Garden City Realty. We were informed and in the loop throughout the whole process. 

Jean has been an outstanding Realtor who has helped half a dozen of our friends and family. 

Jean you're the best!!!

Mr. Streett was patient - showing us many properties over several months. When we made our choice, he was knowledgeable, helpful and provided sage advice.

 It was a pleasure working with Garden City Realty, Bobby Streett and Lee Hewitt. They are the highest example of professionalism, integrity and knowledge of this area along the Strand in selling and/or listing condos to even castles! 

Drew Dellinger is a true professional and made my buying experience both effortless and enjoyable. He was with me through the entire process and always available when a question did arise. I would highly recommend this awesome real estate professional to anyone in the area. Thanks again Drew for an excellent home buying experience!

Lee Hewitt was wonderful to work with. Thanks for everything!

Denise Coleman went above and beyond. Denise is a true asset to your company. I would highly recommend Denise and Garden City Realty to anyone needing real estate assistance. 

 Norm clay was very personable and easy to work with during the transaction. He has continued to follow up with us after the closing; he has gone above and beyond what was expected of a realtor. We were very fortunate to "connect" with Norm Clay as residents of another state seeking to purchase property in South Carolina.

Denise Coleman is a fantastic agent. Wish that every Lawyer could have a great agent as we did.

Job well done by Lee Hewitt.

Nobody could do what Bobby Streett just did - 13 days from finding a property to getting the keys! That's remarkable and unheard of!

Thanks to Denise Coleman for everything she did for our family throughout the process. She truly did go above and beyond anything I could have expected. Without her, I'm sure our family of four would still be in our cozy little two-bedroom house with the coy fish pond- trying desperately to make it somehow work for us. 

Norm Clay is one of the best agents I've ever worked with. He is a great person.

Denise Coleman is excellent and very professional. Goes beyond the call of an agent. 

Lee Hewitt was extremely helpful and is a true professional. He contacted me frequently throughout the week with an update and was optimistic that my home would sell fairly quickly and of course he was right. I will continue to contact Lee for all of my Real Estate transactions. 

 After talking to several Real Estate Agencies we settled on yours because of the local knowledge of Bobby Streett. He was more than helpful all the way.

June Hiller is the best agent I ever worked with. She is friendly, professional and really knows her stuff! 

Denise Coleman was a pleasure to work with and her follow through with details was superb! 

If you truly and really want to sell your house, call Jean Schmaus.

Jean was awesome! 

 I have known Jean Schmaus for 26 years, she is an exceptional agent and person. I would recommend her to everyone! Today recommendations are extremely important to all businesses.

Norm was very helpful, we will recommend him to our friends.

The purchase of my condo from beginning to the end went flawless! Norm Clay was awesome! I would definitely use Garden City Realty again.

Jean Schmaus was our broker and she went far beyond what was ever expected. We had issues concerning the property that needed to be addressed. She kindly referred us to a business that could prepare the condo for sale, make all necessary repairs, and did excellent work at a fair price. Not being from the area, we could have been taken advantage of, thanks to Jean that did not happen.

Jean kept us up to date on showings, advised us on pricing and was helpful and so pleasant to deal with. You are fortunate to have such a professional employee on your staff.

Should we have any need for realty services in the future, rest assured that we will go to Garden City Realty and will recommend your office highly. Thank you for the wonderful service. 

The staff at Garden City Realty exceeded our expectations and our agent Bobby Streett, certainly did more than anyone could expect.

We know our listing agent for many years and knew we wanted him, Norm Clay and GCR to market our home. We received great service from the staff at GCR and our home sold very quickly. Thanks GCR for being there for us and thanks for having such a great professional and caring listing agent such as Norm Clay.

We bought our condo from Garden City Realty 28 years ago and utilized them as our rental agents. They were a great partner for all those years. Mr. Hewitt sold it to us and ultimately sold it for us. Great people to do business with! 

Lee Hewitt and the rest of the Garden City Realty group are the best in the Grand Strand Real Estate business. A true pleasure to work with and such professionals at what they do.

Drew [Dellinger] was professional, courteous and got the job done! 

We explained our situation and housing requirements to June, and showed her pictures of our home in California. The following day we toured three houses, the last one was perfect and we made an offer and proceeded with the purchase. June is great!

Best Real Estate Agent ever! [Darrly Rogers]

Jean had great information and everything was handled in a wonderful manner.

Thanks again...Bobby and Garden City Realty made buying a home truly an experience that always made us feel at home!

June knew what we were looking for and knew we just had a weekend to look. She spend two full days with us showing us 15+ properties. She gave us good advice but never pressured us to make hasty decisions. Even after we put a contract on a condo, the seller gave us many headaches. June looked out for our best interest and made that rocky road until closing as smooth as she could. June was a great real estate agent from my first email through closing. She is not only our Realtor, she is our friend. Thanks June and to Garden City Realty!

 June could have not done a better job!

Denise Coleman did a wonderful job in helping us find a home! 

Our agent Jean Schmaus was wonderful to work with. Her personal attention and endless energy got us the home we wanted.

Norm Clay is a professional with excellent knowledge of all aspects of real estate. We highly recommend Norm Clay!

We have chosen Denise Coleman and Garden City Realty over and over again for all of our Real Estate needs because of her knowledge and helpfulness both before and after the sale. 

Again, third time Norm Clay is the most reliable person I've ever met. He is the utmost stand up person. I would recommend him to everyone.

An 'agency' is only as good as the 'agents' working there. Norm represents the best of both. 

We met Jean two summers ago while on vacation. We stopped in to inquire about real estate. We stayed in contact with Jean as she has a friendly personality without the pressure of most in sales. Jean was great every step of the way she is patience understanding and very knowledgeable. 

June was great to work with! I would highly recommend June to anyone looking to buy in the Myrtle Beach area. She was always very nice and genuinely concerned about me personally and professionally.

Douglas Morris is an excellent Realtor in every way. He is reliable, attentive, responsive, helpful and courteous.  As we live out of state, he arranged our closing attorney and saw to it that estimates and repairs were done as necessary to complete the sale.  He worked on our behalf to get the best price possible for our condo.  We wouldn't hesitate to reccomend Douglas and Garden City Realty to anyone looking to buy or sell a property. 

The professionalism and commitment to excellence was first and foremost during the entire experience. [June Hiller]

Denise Coleman is the main reason we will be listing our property for rent with Garden City Realty. She has treated us like real people and not just a client or customer.

Bobby Streett was excellent in prescreening according to the parameters I set and we were able to narrow down to about 18 properties before going out to look. I found the house for me 1st day out and am now happy in my new home! Thanks, Bobby! 

Drew Dellinger was a pleasure to work with. Very knowledgeable about the area and always available for questions we had. Would highly recommend him if you're buying or selling. 

Douglas is the best! We couldn't have gone through this process without him!

Denise was great! We trusted her completely and bought our home before we even saw it. 

 Bobby Streett and the staff at Garden City Realty are the very best. We purchased our "dream condo" with their help. We now consider them friends as well as our Realtors. Thank you! 

Drew Dellinger did a great job!

Darryl Rogers is one of the best. He is very knowledgeable and patient. He helped us secure maintenance and repairs for our house with reliable and fairly priced service proudness. He said our house would sell and it did!

Darryl Rogers has got to be the best realtor I have worked with. He was great negotiating the price and his knowledge of the area was extremely helpful.

My realtor Jean met the challenges of a purchase made from out of state with professionalism and ease. Her knowledge of helping with the process from the initial search to the closing was a tremendous help. Jean went above and beyond in assisting me with my purchase. She not only was very helpful in helping me get to know the area, but also assisted in the financing options as well. I would definitely recommend Garden City Realty and Jean to anyone looking to re-locate to the area. Thanks so much!

Garden City Realty sales representatives were the nicest I have met. Thank you for handling our sale for us. [Denise Coleman]

Jean Schmaus was excellent in every way - professional, knowledgeable, and so pleasant to deal with. She repeatedly "went the extra mile" to help us get our property ready to sell and was accessible when we had questions. Recommend her highly! 

Lee is excellent to work with! I look forward to working with him in the future. 

We are repeat customers with Garden City Realty and we've always received excellent service [Denise Coleman]

Douglas is by far the best agent we have ever worked with! This wasn't the first time we used Douglas and I'm sure it wont be the last. Douglas has a "get it done" attitude, but also has the patience to walk you through every detail if needed. Top Notch! 

We just wanted to say THANKS for all the help we received at Garden City Realty. We have dealt with quite a few Real Estate companies and agents through the years, and the service, knowledge and professionalism that Bobby Streett and Garden City Realty provided are way above the standards that seem to be the norm in your industry.

Our agent, Jean Schmaus was the best agent for us. She was great in listening, answering questions and giving advice.  She always answered her phone and would get back to us on our questions, etc.  Great Agent!! 

My agent was always on time and he answered the phone always.

It was wonderful working with June Hiller. We felt like we were in really good hands. The home buying experience was smooth and June helped us find the right home. 

Denise was like a real friend to us every step of the way, and we are most appreciative. Lee Hewitt was so helpful at the closing.

Jean was the person to see. She made the whole experience easy and quick. Thank you Jean! 

Jean and the staff at Garden City Realty are easy to work with and communicated clearly every step of the way. I highly recommend them. They are the best real estate company we ever worked with

Norm was great to work with! He went out of his way more than once to help!

We decided to move from NJ to SC in September of 2017. We didn't know anyone in SC so I went to FB and Zillow to start looking for builders. One day, Drew's post popped up on my FB. I contacted him on messenger and within 5 min he had responded to my post. I told him of our plans of coming down to Myrtle Beach to look around and see if we could see ourselves living here. He cleared a whole day for us and thats when our journey began. He was very knowledgeable of the area and guided us to find the perfect home. He also got us connected to a realtor in NJ that helped us sell our home. All throughout the process of selling our home and finally getting to MB, Drew kept in touch with us. When we arrived he texted us to welcome us to SC and set up an appointment to go out with him to look for houses in the different towns here in SC that we were interested in. We moved here without a home, only a rental, and now we have the best home ever. Drew is very connected to the area and knows so many people. We ended up using a finance person, lawyer, and home insurance company that he recommended. He also lives here, so he has great insight on everything from restaurants to parks. He is a professional and it shows. Thank you Drew!

Garden City Realty and their staff are the most accommodating professionals I know.

Bobby could not have been more helpful and with his efforts and advice, our property was under contract within a few weeks. He made the process as smooth as it could go!

Bobby Streett, true professional. Enjoyed working with him. Very good follow-up and feedback in timely manner.

This was our fourth buy and sell in one-and-a-half years. What do you think? [Denise Coleman]

Denise has done exceptionally well in finding multiple properties for us over the last two years. She matches the property with my particular interests.

Drew [Dellinger] was outstanding, always available, always quick to respond. Definitely would recommend!!

We have been dealing with Garden City Realty for over 15 years, for our summer rentals and have always been satisfied with the service and product we received, but Bobby Streett has gone over and above and insured that we will be Garden City clients for as long as we have real estate interests in the areas you serve in South Carolina.

We were very pleased with the service we received from Jean Schmaus and we will gladly call her again if we ever should buy or sell.

Denise was great as usual.

Working with June Hiller has always been pleasant. She is an excellent agent. Her desire to bring the buyer and seller together is very sincere. Thank you June and Garden City Realty for the sale of our beach home.

Jean Schmaus had our best interest in mind the entire process of buying. Top-notch, fun and easy. She was a joy to work with.

Denise is great! We purchased Beach House 311 thru her 4 years ago and now have sold it and purchased Sea Master 314 thru her. Because of Denise, we will be returning to Garden City Realty as our rental agent after a year with another realtor. Thanks Denise! 

Having known Lee Hewitt and Darryl Rogers for many years made it easy to choose the Realtor for the sale of my home at Mt. Gilead! I must say Darryl was superb! He went beyond what I would expect from any Realtor. I cannot say enough positive things about Darryl. He went beyond the norm. This is what makes him a quality person, Realtor and great representative of Garden City Realty!

This was our second house that we bought with June Hiller's help. She is very thorough and always makes sure you are getting the best deal.

June Hiller was our agent. She did an excellent and most professional job. She became a friend, not someone wanting to make a sale.

Special thanks to Norm and Gail for their help.

Drew [Dellinger] is a fantastic realtor. We could not be happier. Drew responds to texts and emails immediately. He goes above and beyond what most realtors would do for their clients. I would highly recommend Drew.

Between my family and friends, we have purchased six homes through Bobby Streett and will use him again if needed. Bobby is honest, knowledgeable, patient and kind!!!

June was a pleasure to work with. She did a great job on helping us sell a place and purchase one. We are very pleased with all she did for us.

Bobby Streett, my listing agent was the best! Bobby's professionalism, attentiveness and patience was second to none! My closing could have been a nightmare but he maintained a calming demeanor and got me through it.

Would like to personally thank June Hiller for assisting me through the whole real estate transaction. It took longer than we both expected, but it finally closed. 

Denise worked with us through one difficult negotiation then worked tirelessly until we got a home we loved. We cannot say enough good things about Denise' friend for life! 

William [Hewitt] was an excellent agent. Very knowledgeable, kind and well mannered. I loved our experience with Garden City Realty. I will recommend y'all to everyone I know. Love this real estate family. 

We had a great experience buying a home through Garden City Realty. Thanks! 

We listed our condo and had it under contract on the same day. We closed in 3 weeks. Norm Clay handled all aspects of the sale in a very professional matter.

Lee went above and beyond his duties/obligations as a realtor. He gave his time, effort and heart which helped my daughter and I find a new home where we can be happy. 

 Bobby was fabulous as a Realtor. He went above and beyond in helping us purchase a house in Myrtle Beach. We felt like we had known him for years and were very comfortable working with him. You are fortunate to have an agent of his caliber. 

Bobby Streett showed us tremendous compassion, patience, and understanding during the entire process of selling our house. We leaned heavily on his vast professional knowledge in advising us in all areas along the way. In my line of work, I deal with the public everyday, and I would highly recommend Bobby Streett to anyone looking for a Realtor in the Surfside/Garden City Beach area. He was fantastic! 

My Real Estate transaction was handled professionally and competently by everyone involved. I appreciate the help and support I received from Jean and everyone at Garden City Realty.

 Norm Clay was awesome! Never once made us worry and took his time to listen to our ideas and kept us informed on everything. Thanks for all of your hard work Norm.

Wonderful experience! I was on a very tight time schedule and June Hiller did everything in her power to make it happen. 

June Hiller is a great real estate agent - very professional and fun to work with. She can find the deals when you want to buy and she knows the correct listing price when you want to sell. I recommend June! 

Bobby Streett was wonderful. I was as important to him with my small purchase as anyone with a huge purchase. Customer service and care was above the rest!

 Norm is a great asset for your company!

Lee, as I have said to you several times, I don't think any company could have done a more thorough job of selling this house than Garden City Realty. Thanks so much for your efforts. You have a great team.

As a recent widow my experience with Garden City Realty was friendly, kind, helpful and wonderful. I was treated like family. [Jean Schmaus]

I didn't meet them (the Garden City Realty Staff) in person but have no doubt they would've been excellent!...I had listed my second home with another agent for a year and no results, not even an offer. I listed with Garden City Realty and within 2 months "SOLD!" Everyone at GCR especially Bobby Streett were so helpful, pleasant, easy to work with and very professional. I wish I had gone to GCR first. Lesson learned. Thank you! 

We have dealt with Bobby Streett at Garden City Realty for about 5 or 6 years. Would recommend him to anyone (and we have). Polite, personable, knowledgeable - now a friend. 

Denise did a great job!

Bobby Streett went above and beyond to secure a sale. Enjoyed working with him and he was always available for questions I had.

Working with June Hiller and Garden City Realty was very easy and they took care of all our questions and concerns in buying our condo. I would highly recommend June and Garden City Realty.

Denise Coleman helped us find a home that fit two family's needs. We love our new house. 

Garden City Realty (Bobby Streett) handled everything professionally and took away from us the stress of selling. We are thankful to him and Garden City Realty for their help.

June was great to work with, and we appreciate her help during the entire process. 

 I would not hesitate to recommend Denise Coleman to anyone I know that is looking to purchase a home.

I have used Denise to both buy and sell and I wouldn't call anyone else! She is the best agent I have ever used.

It is very hard to search real estate when you live 12 hours away. Jean scheduled over 30 appointments in one weekend, we made a bid the next Monday. She has the energy of five realtors! 

My Wife and I were lucky to meet Drew [Dellinger]. We were moving from AZ. To Murrells Inlet. He made Himself available to show Us homes for a full week! Then assisted Us in all aspects of the buying process while We were selling our AZ. Home. Couldn't have done it without his constant assistance and professional support. Thanks Drew!!!!

Denise did an outstanding job once again. She has helped in arranging everything, even furnishings. She has been very helpful and honest. I have done three closings with her and am totally satisfied and have full trust and confidence in her. 

June Hiller, our agent, treated us great. Our home was a priority and she went above and beyond expectations. We appreciate her and Garden City Realty for making our experience a happy one.

 Norm is a personal family friend. He and the entire staff are very professional and courteous in every way. Thank you for a great job!

Jean was top notch! She helped us buy a home in a very short time, listened to our needs and made the whole process painless.

Denise Coleman is an excellent Realtor and very good negotiator.

We were very pleased with Denise. She is a true professional. She made the process very easy and smooth. She is a tremendous asset to Garden City Realty. Thanks Denise! 

We had a very good relationship with Denise! 

June really went above and beyond my expectations. She succeeded on getting me the house I wanted. I would recommend her to everyone.

Jean was very helpful in every phase of the sale. Anything I asked her to do she never said "no." She made a stressful situation very easy on me. I know she went the extra mile for me. Thanks Jean!

We have completed three real estate transactions in the Myrtle Beach area working with June Hiller. She has been a valuable professional to us. She is an expert in all aspects - the area, financing, current market and pricing. Thank you June and Garden City Realty!

Drew [Dellinger] went above and beyond during our experience with purchasing our home. We had several issues during the process and Drew kept us informed every step of the way. We appreciated his honesty and integrity.

Found everything about the selling experience to be excellent!

Coming from out of the state, our agent, Jean Schmaus, lined up some fabulous properties for us to see and handled our offer, the inspections, and the closing. She went out of her way to help us. 

Jean Schmaus showed her Realtor expertise! She was GREAT! She showed that she had been in the business for a while and she knew what she was doing! She sure knows her stuff! EXCELLENT JOB!

She helped us on all paperwork, explained each step along the way, and made our lives easy.[Jean Schmaus]
 

Bobby is great to work with! My agent definitely made it a smooth transition, and felt like he represented us fairly and honestly.

Terrific work- AGAIN! Bobby Streett

An excellent experience! Thank you so much. [June Hiller]

Jean was great as we were doing our searches and tours. We would certainly use Garden City Realty again. 

Denise Coleman is an excellent agent who will go the extra mile to assure that all aspects of her services are second to none. I will be referring her to friends and family! 

Denise went out of her way! We relocated from NY and she has been very helpful in all areas. Not just real estate but helping us with banks, doctors, etc.

Drew was excellent! He was there with us throughout the entire loan process keeping us informed and grounded. The house that he found for us was perfect for our growing family. We were looking for 2 years until he found the diamond in the rough we'd been searching for. My wife and I couldn't be happier with our new home and it's all thanks to Drew and his expertise and determination. We would highly recommend anyone looking for a new home to use Drew Dellinger. 

Norm Clay handled the sale of my condo and he's tops in my book. Being a REALTOR myself, I can honestly say he was excellent.

The team at Garden City Realty, Inc. exceeded my expectations with their communication, timing and genuine interest in helping ensure a successful experience. June Hiller was fabulous!

Excellent job. Thanks, Norm.

We enjoyed working with Denise. She's very professional and very customer focused. You're lucky to have her working at Garden City Realty. 

Bobby did a great job selling our old unit and purchasing our new unit. Would definitely use him and Garden City Realty again.

We have been very satisfied with the service we have received from Mr. Clay and all of Garden City's staff.

Thanks to Norm Clay this transaction was smooth from start to finish. Norm's knowledge of Myrtle Beach real estate is impeccable. Would not use any other real estate person. 

Thank you for everything.

We want to give a big thank you to June Hiller. She has gone over and above our expectations. In both the buying and selling of our house. She became more than an agent, she is more like a friend. We want to thank Garden City Realty, Inc. for providing such high quality of an agent for us to work with and treated us like family.

Bobby Streett was great to work with.

The agents who helped me (Denise Coleman and Lee Hewitt) went above and beyond their duties/obligations as realtors. They gave their time, effort and heart and helped my daughter and I find a new home where we can be happy. 

 Darryl Rogers was absolutely wonderful. This was a very emotional sale for me and he made it as stress free as possible. Hope to do business with him again in the near future.

Nothing has not changed since 1995, when we first came in contact with Garden City Realty. Caring, responsive and responsible service.

 I would tell anyone interested in Real Estate in Myrtle Beach area to contact Garden City Realty and June Hiller in particular. She worked very hard for us and is a fine representative of your company.

Jean Schmaus was courteous, knowledgeable and went above and beyond what we expected - she was great!!

Great Service [Darryl Rogers]

Lee did an outstanding job again. Would not use anyone else. Getting ready to go for the third time.

Bobby Streett is wonderful! So glad I was working with him. 

Considering today's Real Estate market we found our agent at Garden City Realty to be exceptional from the original listing to closing. We would use Garden City Realty again and recommend!

Jean Schmaus was wonderful to work with. She found many properties fitting my criteria. We spent time looking at all of them until I found the one for me. Jean was knowledgeable, informative and a delight. 

Denise Coleman was highly recommended to me by a friend. I was not disappointed at all. If I have future real estate needs, I will definitely contact Ms. Denise Coleman and Garden City Realty. Both were very professional.

Darryl is the most knowledgeable, courteous and professional realtor that we have had the pleasure to work with. A great ambassador for your area. Many Thanks! 

 Jean Schmaus came highly recommended by a friend of ours. Within a 30-day time period jean helped me to get up to speed on the market, had the patience to deal with all of my questions and once we both knew what I was looking for. She wasted no time in recommending that we take advantage of a very good opportunity and we successfully bid on our condo before anyone else really had a chance to see how great a deal it really was! Jean is a true professional, and we did this all remotely, from our home in Connecticut. We are looking forward to meeting her when we are there at the end of the year. 

Norm was excellent to deal with. We always felt like he was in our corner. I would not hesitate to refer a friend to him. Also, he continued to help us after the sale. He is a true professional! 

My wife and I have bought and sold numerous properties over time and have dealt with a lot of agents but none better or more professional than Denise Coleman. I just wished she was in NC as I have several homes to sell here. 

100% happy with everything from start to finish! Norm Clay has been and will continue to be our #1 choice for our realty needs. A true professional. 

I wanted to thank the entire staff at Garden City Realty for their prompt, professional, and accurate service during our recent home purchase. In addition, the negotiation to obtain our new home into the Garden City Rental program was an important decision for us.

I want to personally thank our agent, Jean Schmaus, who actually spent hundreds of hours with us since 2007, looking first at condos, then houses. I think Jean's patience in helping us achieve our dreams is what every agent should aspire to. It is what customers like us need. Her help and guidance through the process was irreplaceable to provide security and comfort to a difficult process of purchasing a home.

As a new homeowner, it is often hard to decipher all the offers out on the market of companies wanting to represent our home. With a large amount of rental income already booked with the incumbent rental company, and their very attractive position as the previous company to represent our home, it was hard for us to choose Garden City because it meant they would have to 'replace' all that revenue. We had our doubts if we made the right decision. We thought it might be hard or impossible to do given the time of year.

However, I am proud to say, our home has been 'on the market' for rental less than three weeks since inception with Garden City and they have successfully booked well over 50% of what was forecasted from the previous rental company. This shows me their dedication to web presence, as well as their ability to 'talk it up' when possible renters call in looking for high quality properties. I have no doubt their continued efforts combined with our home upgrades will make our place one of the best on the beach.

Last but not least, the staff at Garden City Realty really listened to us during our meetings. They went beyond the sale, offering to support us in business expansion we are considering in South Carolina. This was unexpected, and just a sign of their longstanding business awareness and local presence in the market place. I would seek advice from them on ANY real estate question we have.

Everything was processed in a very professional manner. This was my first home purchase; but the staff and Denise Coleman made it such an easy experience. 

Norm was wonderful and went above and beyond for us. We enjoyed working with him very much.

June was and is a true professional. Laura and I have found the perfect home. If June was not there to help, we would still be in the cold, snowy and icy Massachusetts. 

Garden City Realty did a great job helping me with my annual rental and then helping me sell my condominium.

Over the years I have been in the presence of many professional real estate people. Meeting Drew [Dellinger] was one of the most pleasurable and impressive experiences I can remember. Knowledgeable, responsive, respectful and always available…I can’t say enough about how polite he handled himself with my wife—a true gentleman. Drew will hear from us again for sure!

My Realtor (June Hiller) went above and beyond the needs of my purchase. Better yet, even after the sale! Better than excellent in all areas! 

It took June over a year but she stood by us and we got it done. 

We had every aspect of the purchase of our home go extremely well thanks to Garden City Realty. Thank you! [Bobby Streett]

Norm is one of those people who treats people right. Always looking out for his customer. Great job. Outstanding member of your organization.

Great sales agent. [Denise Coleman]

Knowledgeable and authoritative. Excellent service.

A word of thanks to Denise Coleman for the way she handled everything during the time our house was on the market. 

Norm is a great person and I enjoyed working with him!

Website for our condo is wonderful, we can check on bookings and show our friends our condo online! [June Hiller]

I was extremely pleased with the entire process of the sale of my condo. Denise Coleman did an excellent job with each aspect of the sale. I am very pleased with both the sales and rental department of Garden City Realty. Both departments are very professional!!

Drew Dellinger was a great agent. He showed us many different options, but left it in our hands when it came to the final decision. He was very professional and honest. That is how it should be when making a decision as big as a home purchase.

Norm Clay provided us with superb professional assistance throughout our relocation process. His knowledge and expertise were invaluable to us as we moved from Baton Rouge, LA to Myrtle Beach. We were especially grateful for his willingness to "think outside the box" as we had several unique circumstances. Norm went way above and beyond the call of duty to assist us, and we are most grateful to have been connected with him.

Lee went above and beyond. He is an excellent realtor. If we come back to Garden City we will definitely give him a call. Thanks, Lee!

For 7 years Garden City Realty rented our home then sold it for us. Garden City Realty was always reliable and quick to help us at all times. The folks at the front desk as well as the sales department are the best!

Garden City Realty is an excellent company to deal with. They are very friendly and knowledgeable about all their business! [June Hiller]

Drew Dellinger went above and beyond to help us find our perfect home.  He was patient, understanding and dedicated. We appreciate his knowledge as we were moving to SC from out of state. Overall, we had a great experience!

Our agent was always good at answering all of our questions promptly; and she was always available. We would recommend June Hiller, she is a great sales agent! 

Jean Schmaus is a personal friend of ours. She was the agent who sold our condo to us in 1989. She is a wonderful and delightful person we love her.

This is my second purchase with Denise and Garden City Realty. She was helpful and "on top of things" throughout the process. She went beyond her duties as a realtor, especially when she helped find furniture for the condo. I will definitely use her again. 

Garden City Realty is the place to be for buying or selling. Beau and his staff are the best! 

Mr. Bobby Streett was an absolute God-send. He is professional, kind, tolerant, extremely knowledgeable and a joy to work with. He treated us like family and we feel he is a part of ours now as well.

Denise, Candice & Lee, all superb individuals and treated me like family. Can't say enough about these people - It was a definite pleasure to know them and do business with them. 

I have already told all my friends if they ever decide to make the move south to contact Garden City Realty and Jean Schmaus! 

With so many realtors from which to choose, we know without a doubt that we made the right decision to work with Drew [Dellinger]. At the onset, he sent us home listings each day which represented the search criteria we had discussed. He quickly answered each and every question and concern we had, and, worked tirelessly for our best interests. When we came to the area to view the homes we had selected to tour, he was way ahead of us in really knowing what we had in mind! We made an offer on a home that was not even on our list, a home in an area that he knew we would like. We loved it! After the offer, he was constantly in touch to make sure the process was going smoothly and gave us recommendations for professional services as we would not know a company to call for a need we would have. I could go on and on bragging about Drew. He is honest, courteous, professional and really knows this business. The wonderful result is that the friendship does not end with the move into our home. We cannot thank Drew enough and we are going to love Murrells Inlet! 

Norm was great to work with. Would recommend him to others.

Garden City Realty has been my agent for 15 years. They are superb in renting property and selling. I would select them again without hesitation.

Denise Coleman is a wonderful agent. I will always refer her to anyone I know. 

Our experience with Garden City Realty and Jean Schmaus was excellent. Jean went above and beyond during the showing and sales process. Its not easy doing things 2 1/2 hours away. We could count on Jean for anything! We look forward to many years in our new home. 

June is a credit to your organization! 

 Jean was top notch! She helped us buy a home in a very short time, listened to our needs and made the whole process painless.

Working with Denise on the purchase of my beach house was very pleasant. We are enjoying the summer; the house and of course the beach. Thanks for everything, all the hard work, etc.

We are so glad that June showed us this property. It wasn't even on our radar screen. We fell in love with it at first sight. Thanks June for all your hard work.

Jean Schmaus is by far the most awesome realtor I have ever met! She went over and beyond giving at least 110% from the house hunting, negotiations and closing.

Norm Clay was super! He is the reason I chose Garden City Realty.

Thank you so much! Jean was fabulous!

Don't know what we would have done without Bobby. Still using his professionalism! Thank goodness for Garden City Realty.

Norm is a rare breed in the realty field. He's concerned about not only the sale, but you as a person. I've been blessed to get to know Norm.

Process couldn't have gone smoother, Bobby Streett was phenomenal!

Garden City Realty exceeded our expectations. Our agent, Norm Clay, worked patiently with us until we found the property that was just right for us. We wouldn't choose anyone else for our future needs.

Denise Coleman was excellent to work with. When a property of our choice was not available, she used her network to find our ideal beach condo!

Drew [Dellinger] was very helpful made the purchase of our 2nd home extremely easy. He is very knowledgeable of the area. I would definitely recommend him to everyone! 

Wonderful from first day we looked at the house. Wonderful service! [June Hiller]

Denise was exceptionally diligent in keeping me informed whether locally or long distance. She is always courteous and professional.

The members of Garden City Realty are top notch professionals. Our realtor, June, was available at any time and always returned our calls and addressed our concerns. We were so lucky to find her.

June Hiller is a great agent. Although we had not sold our house in Florida, she contracted us on numerous occasions via phone and email. Garden City Realty staff was always courteous. We do not know anyone who is planning to move here, but if and when we do, we will highly recommend Garden City Realty. 

Denise Coleman went above and beyond during the purchase of our new home. We would highly recommend her to anyone! Denise represented Garden City Realty as if she were buying her own home! Thank you Denise and Garden City Realty.

Great Firm! Very professional staff. Our experience was wonderful! [Jean Schmaus]

Superb experience in every way. Understood my needs and surpassed all expectations. A truly great experience.  [Jean Schmaus]

Jean is very courteous, knowledgeable, and a professional Realtor! She is a "Darling"!

Jean and Garden City Realty provided wonderful service and support during this transaction. I would not hesitate to call again if the need arose. 

Lee, thank you for all of your hard work. Very much appreciated. I'll send everyone I can to you all.

Love the website! Easy to navigate & very through. We can't say enough good things about Denise Coleman. She took care of everything for us, even the small things. She was engaged from start to finish, responsive and prompt. You have a true professional in Denise! Thank you for an awesome home buying experience.

Bobby did an excellent job, in all aspects. 

Bobby Streett is super and knowledgeable, reliable and works for his clients.

Gave what I needed and was so pleased with Darryl. I would recommend him to anyone in need of a realtor!

Denise Coleman was outstanding! This was by far the easiest and most pleasant experience we've had buying real estate. Denise was very knowledgeable and helpful throughout the process and beyond. 

Working with Garden City Realty, Inc. was the most pleasurable house buying experience I have ever had!

If Bobby runs against Trump in the next election, he has my vote!

Norm was great. I appreciated everything he did for me.

Denise was great. She was an incredible help thru all of this!

It was a pleasure working with Lee Hewitt and Garden City Realty. Seldom do I give excellent ratings but in this case they are well deserved.

We bought our condo in 2000 and used Garden City Realty as our buying agent and felt we should at least let them have the chance to resell it in 2015. We were pleased with both transactions! [Bobby Streett]

Website was very easy to maneuver, was very informative and easy to access, enjoyed the description of our Mother's Home, and the pictures that were displayed. [Jean Schmaus]

Jean Schmaus was very helpful. Enjoyed working with her. I have recommended her to help friends.

What a delight to work with a "low pressure" person. June is definitely an asset to your office. She is kind, knowledgeable and competent. Her professionalism is A+ and her demeanor is to be commended.

Bobby Streett was great to work with in every aspect of the purchase. Never pushy, always responsive to questions and concerns. I felt he always had our best interest in mind.

I have referred over one million dollars in sales to Bobby Streett and Garden City Realty. I will continue to refer both to anyone I know who is interested in purchasing.

We were very well pleased with Garden City Realty and our agent June Hiller. June went out of her way to help us. Thank you very much June.

I was so happy with how professional Norm was during the process that I will call Norm Clay when I list my condo for sale! I would recommend Norm to all my friends and family.

Allison and I would like to take the opportunity to thank you for working with us. You exceeded our expectations in selling our condo, and making it happen on the purchase of our new home. We both know we can be a little picky to work with, and we thank you for your time and effort. We would highly recommend you to friends and family and would do business with you again ourselves. Thanks! [Bobby Streett]

Bobby Streett is a very knowledgeable, organized, efficient, honest and helpful person. He found exactly what we wanted and went out of his way to be helpful. We thoroughly enjoyed working with him. 

With Darryl's guidance, my husband and I were able to purchase a second home. Darryl was informative, available and more importantly, GENUINE! 

Even though the REALTOR, the sellers and I were in three different states, Lee Hewitt brought the entire transaction to a speedy and successful completion, on time and without a single hitch.

Drew had great knowledge of the areas we were interested in. We ask many questions and he was always extremely helpful. He always made himself available. Drew had wonderful contacts for other areas like banking, legal firms, etc. and all of them were great to work with. We had some very specific requests and Drew was able to fulfill them. His overall customer service skills where excellent. My Wife and I would use Drew again and will suggest him to friends and family. You really couldn't pick a better real estate professional.

Garden City Realty agent June Hiller was extremely knowledgeable of the Horry County/Georgetown County area and showed my wife and I our dream home!

I would like to bring to your attention the wonderful experience we have had in selling our property in Surfside Beach. [Jean Schmaus]

Thanks again for your hard work and encouragement. I knew I was working with a great agent! [June Hiller]

If we could give Drew Dillinger a rating of Excellent ++++, it would not be enough. He possesses such a calm demeanor and personality. He is knowledgeable, dependable, punctual and made our experience seamless.
 

Norm Clay was an absolute delight to work with! From start to closing, he kept me informed. A very professional agent with a very professional realty office. I look forward to future ventures with Norm and Garden City Realty - thanks so much! 

Norm Clay was excellent! 

Thank you for seeing us through the condo purchase, with wisdom, patience, and kindness. [Bobby Streett]

Lee is a true professional.

Drew Dellinger went above and beyond to help us with our home search, even after we were back in Arizona, he was always reachable and very much kept us informed. We would definitely recommend Drew and Garden City Realty!

My relations with Garden City Realty, Mr. Forshee, and Norm Clay have been quite satisfactory!

June Hiller was excellent. She was very patient with us and knew what we were looking for. I would recommend her to anyone.

My Sales Agent, Norm Clay, was excellent. I told him exactly what kind of condo I was looking for and he was able to find a few that fit my criteria. He was honest, up front and knowledgeable and helpful in every way, even after the closing. I was able to find my retirement home and I would highly recommend Garden City Realty and Norm Clay in particular to find property in the Myrtle Beach area.

June was informative.

Lee, thanks for everything.

Garden City Realty has "earned" my current and future business through excellent customer service.

Bobby was super. He anticipated and took care of things. He was very responsive and always available, a great advisor.

Joe & I are so grateful to have met June. We want to thank her for all she has done to get us a great home at the beach. June is a wonderful person and I'm so happy to have her now as a friend. We have worked with June in the past. I would recommend her highly. She is professional, courteous and very knowledgeable about the the area and market. Living out of state and purchasing a property can be very stressful but she goes above and beyond for her clients.

Thank you so much for all of your help with the purchase of our first house! You have absolutely been wonderful throughout this entire process! We couldn't have asked for more! [Denise Coleman]

Denise did a great job. Thanks! 

We got linked up with Drew [Dellinger] through one of his banners on a condo he had for sale. He was very prompt and knowledgeable when talking to him. Very thankful he was able to explain how having a buyers agent could benefit us and actually save us money. We were unaware and like most figured it was the other way around and would save money buy dealing with the listing agent directly. Man, is that far from the truth! I would recommend Drew to others and when we do decide to buy he will be our guy!

As always Denise (and all of your staff) were wonderful to us. We feel like Denise is our friend as well as our agent. We are very pleased.

I highly recommend Garden City Realty to anyone who likes professional results on sale of property. 

I needed to sell my home quickly and Drew Dellinger did just that. He worked very hard with the bank etc. and my home was sold in a very reasonable time. Drew was understanding of my situation and was in constant communication with me, keeping me updated on what was going on. He was always professional and respectful and I would highly recommend him. 

Denise Coleman was excellent to work with. She did a great job including decorating advice. 

It was a sincere pleasure doing business with Norm. Businesses need more people of like character, honest, trustworthy.

Bobby Streett was able to clear up miscommunication by the seller's realtor so closing could occur.

Bobby Streett was helpful from beginning to end. He answered all of our questions promptly and is an excellent source of referrals. Not really enough room here to tell you what a great guy that Bobby has been. 

Jean was very knowledgeable & professional, I would recommend her in the future.

Darryl Rogers did an outstanding job making sure we purchased the right home. He is an honest and trustworthy agent that I would recommend to anyone. 

 We are enjoying the beach!! Thanks Denise

My sales agent Lee could be reached with no problem or having to wait for a call back.

June Hiller was excellent. She was very patient with us and knew what we were looking for. I would recommend her to anyone.

Great Job! Well done! [June Hiller]

As a first time home buyer, I don't think our process could have gone smoother. June was very patient with all of our questions and concerns, from start to finish she was so helpful and personable. I highly recommend June and Garden City Realty.
