​@@MangoHomesWhat do you think about Beverly homes?

[@MangoHomes]

They build a good home! Just by coincidence I've never had someone buy one of their places brand new but I've had a number of folks buy one of their places pre-owned like down in Hagley Estates in Pawleys and they have all been solid, nice homes 😊👍

[@Maxwell1989]

@@MangoHomes Nice to hear and it's great they're award-winning My Mom is looking at Woodside crossing new development in Conway I like how they paint and trim their garages all builders should do that they shouldn't leave it unfinished In my opinion

[@MangoHomes]

Hey you're the one that did all the work, I'm just the super weird tour guide 🤣!!

[@JimmyS1981]

@@MangoHomes hahaha! Well, if it wasn’t for your awesome videos, we would’ve never found you! Omg and remember the guy at the hotel that literally had your Mascot Bird on his shoulder !? He walked right by us (sooo random), so then we knew right then and there we def picked the right Realtor !!!

[@MangoHomes]

@JimmyS1981 had another nice couple stay in that same hotel a few weeks back and I thought about that bird...how crazy is that?? Still insane that happened 🤣

[@JimmyS1981]

Lance, the beginning of the video isn’t our kitchen right ? I thought it was but after looking closer, im like IDK if it is or isnt LOL

[@MangoHomes]

Yup! That's your kitchen : )

Hi Lance, thanks for making a video on the building codes and new construction homes in Myrtle Beach areas very helpful information. We would love to see more new build content show casing the areas top builders, materials, specifications walk throughs or the new construction buying process in general. We hope to come visit again soon.. Take care. Pete and Carolen

[@MangoHomes]

That's a darn good idea Pete! Never thought about it exactly like that

[@LadyD7]

Thanks for the very informative video.

[@MangoHomes]

Happy to help, ma'am 😊

[@fin1964]

Thank you for the great information

[@MangoHomes]

You're welcome! Video was a lot of fun to make so it was my pleasure 🙂👍

[@ninas6200]

Thanks for the video. Very helpful info. Do you happen to know when the current building codes went into effect? That will be helpful to know in looking at older homes.

[@MangoHomes]

Good morning Nina! They went into effect in 2021, but that doesn't necessarily mean that every home built for 2021 is about to fall apart lol! When buying an older home a good solid home inspection is key. Most homes have traded hands a couple times by now and have been brought up to code as much as possible, and that discovery process literally is that home inspection. Older or newer, either way you go you're good 🙂👍

[@SoBelle100]

What building materials and codes are addressing toxic mold issues if water damage occurs? That foam inside the walls seems like a perfect food source for mold to grow.

[@MangoHomes]

That is an awesome question SoBelle!! Kudos to you for thinking next level 💪😎👍 While the expanding foam insulation kind of grabs/holds any water that leaks in and stops it from spreading sort of like a sponge (thus preventing water damage from spreading and destroying more drywall), there's nothing organic in it for mold to feed on like there would be if there was wet wood or cloth or something like that. Water held in that foam won't grow mold just like if it were held in a steel pail or porcelain sink. And the only reason I know this is for the research I did for the exact video you watched because if not for a builder mentioning that to me I would have never known 🤣👍

[@SoBelle100]

I lost everything I owned (and I mean everything including my golden retriever and cat) to toxic black mold that was hidden inside the walls of my San Diego home. The seller did not disclose the water damage or the mold. It took me over 400 IV’s plus lots of education so this would never happen to me again. It’s now a survival, life or death skill, for me. Thank you for responding. I am seriously considering a move to SC so I hope to connect with you.

[@MangoHomes]

@SoBelle100 oh Lord, that's horrid!! I'm sorry you had to deal with that 😳

[@SoBelle100]

@@MangoHomes Yes, it was a life changing event. Hopefully, sharing this information adds some credibility to my question. I appreciate you understanding. Thank you.

[@MangoHomes]

@SoBelle100 Oh Lord of course!

[@christinegary6642]

do the counties/areas have these codes.

[@MangoHomes]

Good question! Those building codes are consistent across all of coastal South Carolina. Every builder has their own way to engineer it, all of which are reviewed by architects and approved by the local county(s)...but yes they all by code have to build a house that can stand up to a category 5 hell storm 🙂👍

[@christinegary6642]

thank you I'm thinking of moving to a warmer state but I'm scared of the unknown@@MangoHomes

[@MangoHomes]

Well that makes you exactly like everyone else and 100% entirely normal 😊 No worries, that's why this channel exists. This is a warm happy place, and everyone should have a warm happy experience learning about it.
