RECAP: The Charleston Real Estate Market

Not surprisingly, the Charleston real estate market continues its incredible run. In fact, we're having trouble keeping up with the record sales from 2020. At midyear, we were up 31.6% in transactions year to date over the same period in 2020. At the end of September, we were only up 15.6% over the same period in 2020.


The second half of 2020 was spectacular and our current inventory will just not allow us to keep pace. September 2021 was down about 10% compared to September 2020. 2021 may end up being about the same as 2020 with about 22k homes sold.


The seller is still very much in command in this market. Median sales price is up 16.7% over the same 2020 period. Median sales price in the entire area is now about $350k. But, both areas of Mt Pleasant currently are showing median sales prices over $550k.
