Here's your monthly recap of what happened in the Charleston tri-county real estate market this September, how it compares to September 2025, and what it means if you're buying or selling.

📊 September 2026 Highlights (Year-Over-Year):

💰 Median Sales Price: $425,000 (up 0.6% from last September)

💵 Average Sales Price: ~$699,000 (up 10.7%)

⏱️ Average Days on Market: ~54 days (up 6.5%)

📦 Months of Supply: ~3.8 months

🏘️ Active Listings: 5,835 (up 3.3%)

✅ Homes Under Contract: 1,300 (up 2.8%)

🔑 Closed Sales: 1,550 (up 10.1%)

More homes sold this September than last, but prices held essentially flat. The median moved less than 1% year over year. The big jump in the average price tells us more higher-end homes closed, not that typical homes got more expensive. Homes are also taking a few extra days to sell, and inventory is slightly higher. For buyers, that means a bit more room to negotiate than a year ago. For sellers, pricing right from day one matters more than ever.

If you're buying or selling in Charleston, Berkeley, or Dorchester County and want to know what this means for your situation, reach out. Happy to talk through it.

Mount Pleasant Real Estate Market Update — Week of October 5–12

Here's what's happening in our local market this week:

🏘️ 415 active listings across all of Mount Pleasant (condos, townhomes, single family homes)

📝 27 properties went under contract this week, about 6.5% of everything on the market (down from 37 last week)

Price range on what went pending:
• Lowest: 2 bed / 1 bath condo in Sandpiper Pointe — $379,900
• Highest: 6 bed / 5 bath home in Old Mt Pleasant — $3,895,000, which went under contract at full list price in just 8 days

⏱️ Days on market: the average was about 55 days and the median was 47. That's a big shift from last week, when half of the contracts came within a week of listing. This week, 7 of the 27 homes went under contract after more than 100 days on the market.

💰 48% of the homes that went under contract (13 of 27) had a price reduction beforehand. For sellers whose homes have been sitting, a price adjustment is often what brings the right buyer.

🏡 In the luxury market ($2.5 million and up), 4 homes went under contract this week.

Mount Pleasant Real Estate: This Week's Market Snapshot

Two homes went under contract the same day they were listed this week. At the same time, the $2.5M+ segment is sitting at roughly 5.6 months of supply — solidly balanced-to-buyer's-market territory. Same town, two very different markets depending on price point.

Here's the full picture:

Active Inventory: 426 listings across all of Mount Pleasant (condos, townhomes, single family)

Under Contract This Week: 30 properties moved to Pending or Active Contingent — about 7.0% of active inventory

Price Range on Contracts:
→ Lowest: 1508 Basildon Road (Park West), 1bd/1ba condo — $298,500
→ Highest: 2678 Egrets Landing Court (Brickyard Plantation), 5bd/5.5ba — $3,750,000

Days on Market:
→ Fastest: 0 days (Rice Planters Drive; Bountiful Bend #7)
→ Slowest: 112 days (3438 Attley Street, Hamlin Plantation)
→ Average: ~40 days

Price Adjustments: 47% of homes that went under contract (14 of 30) had a price reduction first

Luxury Segment ($2.5M+): 63 active listings against 135 closed sales over the trailing 12 months — about 5.6 months of supply, notably slower than the broader market's sub-7% weekly contract rate.

The takeaway: pricing strategy matters more than ever right now, and it varies significantly by price band. Happy to talk through what this means for your specific situation, whether you're buying or listing.

Hot take.

But it’s true. Check your online eyeballs for your listing. First week or 2 look great. How do the views compare if you’ve been on a month, maybe 2 months?!

Well they typically don’t go up.

Some agents take the home off and pop back on to make it look new and confuse the consumer. It works for a short time.

Some agents rearrange photos, drop or raise the price $100 every week or so(as if that makes heads turn)

Some just think the photos from early Spring look just as good in a Summer Season( not as green and shows the age of listing!)

NOT interested in those “fixes”?

Since 100% of all consumers start shopping for a home online, your presence matters.

In a rising inventory climate, it really matters.

Check out the numbers in the next photo and see the amount of eyeballs we captured.

Heck we even track the amount of people and time they spend on the Matterport view time!

90 days on market, in a tough market and yet maximum exposure.

Looking for an agent with a strategic plan, one that keeps your home in front of more consumers than the other homes?
