From my cumulative experience of real estate transactions, there have been good and bad buyer's agents I've dealt with. The bad ones just wanted to make a sale and get their commission and had no regard for my best interests. The good ones did their job and protected my interests and earned their pay. Then there's the exceptional buyers agent who goes above and beyond and who always has their buyer's interests as their top priority and is always readily available for a unexpected phone call or meeting, and seemingly lives no other life than to help you buy the house you want. That buyer's agent is: COOPER LIVINGSTON I always knew I was going to move to Myrtle Beach because for 7 years it became my annual vacation destination. A few years ago, I purchased a condo because I wanted to spend more time here. After that I knew I was going to retire here. I dealt with a handful of buyer's agents and couldn't find the right fit. Nobody was readily available. One agent was obviously using this as a second job and was not available when we were visiting the location and to her credit, her other job was probably what paid her bills so that's understandable. Then to the other extreme, I met with an agent who was super busy due to a huge YouTube presence and she was never readily available...I mean appointments were required weeks out. We didn't have that luxury as we both worked full time and didn't know when exactly we would have time to travel to look at homes. Cooper came recommended from a close friend and while I knew he was still wet behind his realtor ears, I met with him once and I liked his respectfulness and honesty so I signed a contract with him. It was the best experience I had with a realtor. We came down from New Jersey sometimes with 2 days notice and he was always available and I mean for hours. If we came down for a week he was with us for 3 or 4 days for hours. While we were in NJ he was still working for us; if I asked him about a specific location or I couldn't meet with a builder, he went in my place and FaceTimed the interactions or the locations. With him, I was able to be in the Northeast and Myrtle Beach at the same time. I truly felt like I was his only client even though I know he had other buyers and even had at least one listing at that time. I've never seen an agent so diligent in his work ethic. I told him and I will let anyone reading this review in on my opinion: in the future Cooper Livingston is going to be the biggest name in real estate in Myrtle Beach, probably South Carolina. He has a non-stop desire to succeed, but not just for profit but also because he genuinely wants to be a part of his clients' happiness and he feels its his duty to God. Nothing that I wrote here is BS. I would stick with an agent who makes you their priority. I found that agent and now we're living in a home that we love in a place that we love. Thank you Cooper and remember me when you're a big shot down here.

Cooper helped us for months look for our perfect house, he was always available for any and all questions. I couldn’t have asked for a better realtor to help throughout this process!

Outstanding young man! Very knowledgeable and a wonderful personality.

What a pleasure getting to know our agent! He was persistent without being aggressive. Understood what we were looking for and found just what we wanted. Sometimes it takes a little longer than expected to find what you’re looking for and you end up creating a friendship in the process. Plan on using him again very soon. :)
