I don't know what your brothers price range is. I was in Conway in April and saw a brand new 3bedroom 2 bath home backing up to woods, no garage for 139,900. With a 2 car garage price would be 159,000.

Conway is a very nice town and the homeowner's insurance would be lower since it is west of the Intracoastal Waterway. There is a mild morning and afternoon rush hour for commuting between Conway and Myrtle Beach. A search on Realtor.com of 3BR homes under $125K in Conway yielded 22 properties.
He may also want to consider the Socastee area just south of Myrtle Beach. There were 4 homes under $140K with 3BR in zip code 29588.

I live in CT but want to leave the rat race and the cold weather. Have been looking into Conway, but unsure of the job market in this area. I do IT Tech Support, so what towns/cities are local enough for office/corporate jobs? I'd love a avg to small local co, I work in avg (80 people) office now, so anything that size or smaller is good, much more relaxed I think.
