Market Common is one of Myrtle Beach's most distinctive residential communities — a walkable, urban-style neighborhood built on the redeveloped site of the former Myrtle Beach Air Force Base, with tree-lined streets, a central commercial district, multiple park spaces, and a community character unlike anything else on the Grand Strand. For property owners, Market Common represents a maintenance environment shaped by smaller lot sizes, dense landscaping, active HOA governance, and the community's strong aesthetic identity.
Market Common's redevelopment from military base to community happened in the 2000s, creating a neighborhood with architectural consistency, mature streetscape plantings, and a pedestrian-oriented design that sets it apart from standard suburban Myrtle Beach development. The retail and dining district at the community's center creates foot traffic and visibility that reinforces the community's visual standards — properties along Market Common's main streets have essentially a commercial-quality presentation expectation.
Residential types in Market Common include single-family homes, townhomes, condominiums, and apartment communities — a density and variety that's unusual for Myrtle Beach's typically suburban residential pattern. This variety creates different maintenance profiles for different property types, but the HOA's consistent standards apply across all of them.
Market Common's smaller lot sizes create a different lawn care profile than standard suburban Myrtle Beach neighborhoods. Many properties have relatively compact lawn areas with detailed bed landscaping that requires careful attention to edging and plant maintenance rather than large-area mowing. The community's streetscape plantings along the main corridors create a maintained public aesthetic that residential properties are expected to match.
The urban-style architecture of Market Common — often with brick facades, detailed trim work, and covered porches — creates exterior surfaces that benefit from annual soft washing to remove the biological growth that Myrtle Beach's humidity drives on all exterior materials. The consistency of the architectural style across the neighborhood means that a neglected exterior is immediately noticeable against well-maintained neighbors.
Market Common's condo and townhome communities have HOA structures that often handle common-area exterior maintenance — but individual homeowners in detached homes are responsible for their own lawn care, exterior washing, and upkeep. We serve both individual homeowners and HOA associations within Market Common for common area maintenance.
