From being involved in the development of the golf industry, the vacation rental industry, developing effective marketing methods, he was always at the front of the line.”

Senator Elliott was one of the pioneers in recognizing both the need and potential growth of renting vacation homes and condos to generate an income source for property owners.

Innovations For The Future

Both Senator Elliott and Rick Elliott have been pioneers and innovators in the marketing and operation of their companies.

Starting in 1989, Elliott Realty was one of the first companies to publish a vacation rental brochure. The color brochure showcased beach homes and condos as well as pricing and reservation information. This brochure, which is well over 100 pages, is still is produced to this day!

Elliott was also one of the first companies to have a web presence. There are websites for both the real estate sales that let buyers search the large inventory of available Myrtle Beach area homes. The rental division has their entire inventory of homes and condos available on line. Guests are able to find the vacation home of their dreams online and quickly rent it before someone else grabs it. The websites have and continue being updated to make use of the newest innovations and technology.

Elliott also has a unique division that offers hunting, recreational and farm land throughout South Carolina and the Southeast. Elliott Recreational Properties lets you choose parcels of land as either a recreational compound or as an investment.

Senator Dick Elliott was one of the pioneers of the golf industry in Myrtle Beach. In 1971, long before Myrtle Beach was the “Golf Capital of the World”, he began constructing Eagles Nest Golf Club in North Myrtle Beach. As the popularity of golf in the Myrtle Beach area grew, Senator Elliott and Rick recognized the importance of this segment and set up Myrtle Beach Golf Authority. This let golf groups book homes and condos and also set up t-times at many of the championship courses throughout the area. The venture has and still continues to be an attractive method for helping to keep rental properties full, especially during the off seasons like fall and spring.

Since many property owners rely on the income of their properties to help with their mortgage payments, Elliott companies were one of the first to recognize the importance of the “Snow Birds”. They flock to the many attractive and affordable properties that Elliott Beach Rentals offers at reduced winter rental rates. Elliott was also the first company and an innovator to establish an online line reservation system for winter rentals.

Innovation has been the cornerstone of the continued success of all of the Elliott real estate companies. They continue to make careful and consistent changes to keep them one of the preeminent real estate companies in the area.

The Golden Rule

Even with all the technological changes, nothing will change the core principles that Senator Elliott founded the company on. Rick Elliott said that his Dad began the company when everyone in the area knew each other. If you Golden Rule” for every Elliott employee”.

didn’t treat people right and give them the best service you could, you wouldn’t stay in business very long. “That philosophy has long been the “

After over fifty years in business, Rick says that one of the goals is to have “everyone satisfied with the service they receive, no matter whether they are a home buyer, a home seller, a vacation guest or a rental property owner.”  Rick says that he asks all his employees to remember that they are there to serve their customers. It’s not easy to do, but he added that “he is always there to offer any assistance he can.”

Giving Back To The Community

Senator Elliott spent a lifetime giving back to his community as a member of the South Carolina House and as a state Senator for over thirty years. Senator Elliott retired in 2012 and was awarded the Order of the Palmetto by Governor Nikki Haley. That award is given in recognition to a person’s exemplary contribution to the state of South Carolina and is South Carolina's highest honor.

Senator Elliott instilled the importance of giving back to the community with his children.  Rick Elliott established the Elliott Realty Charitable Community Fund through the Waccamaw Community Foundation. Tens of thousands of dollars have been given to a wide range of charities such as area churches, North Strand Helping Hand, Humane Society of North Myrtle Beach, Sea Haven, North Myrtle Beach Women’s Club, American Heart Association, and Women in Philanthropy and Leadership at Coastal Carolina University.

Both Senator Elliott and Rick Elliott have worked hard with both the Myrtle Beach Chamber of Commerce and the North Myrtle Beach Chamber of Commerce. Rick served as Chairman of the Building North Myrtle Beach Campaign, which helped developed plans to generate continued business growth in North Myrtle Beach. Rick also served as Chairman of the North Myrtle Beach Chamber of Commerce.

Looking Forward

Real estate is moving forward once again and Rick Elliott isn’t just sitting around waiting for it to recover. Elliott says he has plans to add more real estate agents so that each person who steps into one of the many Elliott Coastal Living offices or calls one of the dedicated agents receives a “friendly, knowledgeable and helpful agent who has received the best training available and the support of all the support  staff throughout the company.”

Elliott said that he will not forget the standards that his Dad instilled in the company throughout his life and the success of Elliott Coastal Living and Elliott Beach Rentals will always serve to be an expression of the fundamental beliefs of the companies.

“Elliott Coastal Living and Elliott Beach Rentals also fully embraces change - we are not afraid to push the envelope to expand our market thru non-traditional ways – in fact, we pride ourselves in it for it sets us apart,” says Rick Elliott. “Yes, it is easier to walk down a hill, but it is more satisfying to test the real estate limits of traditional agents and agencies by aggressively moving upwards against the headwinds of tradition.”

Rick said his goal, with the support of Better Homes & Gardens, is to change the real estate industry in the Myrtle Beach area which has followed traditional business sales models in the past. “We want people talking about us.  We want to be the leader. Apple and other companies did not become who they are without daring to be different and combining their core business vision with solid values.” Elliott added.

“Where are we going? Elliott Coastal Living will continue to be the premier leader in real estate sales that attracts a loyal band of believers who connect to our business philosophy and model.”
