Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Apr 2026 - Jun 2026).
Charleston’s rolling three-month housing snapshot shows prices trending upward compared with last year. The typical home value is about $230,000, up roughly 12 percent year over year. Median list prices have also climbed a bit over the past year, while inventory is somewhat lower than last June.
In the latest rolling period ending in June 2026, homes are changing hands quickly, with a median of just 23 days on the market. Months of supply has tightened to 2.4, reinforcing the area’s current status as a seller’s market. Sales activity is strong, with homes sold up nearly 19 percent year over year and pending sales surging more than 40 percent. New listings have increased compared with last year, yet demand is absorbing much of that additional inventory.
Pricing dynamics remain relatively balanced, with the average sale-to-list ratio around 97 percent and about 18 percent of homes closing above asking. Compared with the higher inventory and longer 62-day median market time seen in mid-2024, today’s conditions show buyers moving faster and sellers often securing solid offers. Buyers can use this context to calibrate their expectations on timing and pricing, while sellers can gauge how their home might perform relative to recent trends. Both buyers and sellers in Charleston can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help connecting with an experienced local agent who understands these shifting conditions.
