Beaufort, SC Housing Market 2026: Median Home Price & Sales Trends

What the numbers say

Resideline tracked 367 closed sales in Beaufort over the last six months, with a median closing price of $440,000. That median is the midpoint of what buyers actually paid, not what sellers hoped to get, which is why it moves differently from the asking prices you see on listing sites. The middle half of those sales closed between $350,000 and $650,000. That spread matters more than the headline median: where a specific property sits inside it decides whether the citywide number helps you or misleads you. These are the closings we track, not a complete county record, so treat the count as a large sample of the market rather than every sale that happened.

Where Beaufort sale prices land

Medians hide the shape of a market. The distribution above covers the closed sales Resideline tracked in Beaufort over the last six months, trimmed to the 5th through 95th percentile, with the middle half of sales closing between $350,000 and $650,000. Where your target property sits inside that spread matters more than the citywide median.

The Beaufort angle

Beaufort's Lowcountry setting, historic district and long-standing military presence give it a buyer mix that is unusual for a city of its size. The median across 367 tracked closings was $440,000, with the middle half between $350,000 and $650,000. The distribution tilts upward, with the top quartile boundary about 48 percent above the median while the bottom sits only 20 percent below, a pattern typical where a limited amount of historic and water-adjacent property pulls the upper end away from the bulk. Monthly closings tracked 75 in April, 102 in May and 98 in June. That asymmetry means a comp set built around the median will systematically understate anything in the upper portion of the city.

From market read to offer price

A market read is the backdrop. The decision still comes down to one property and one number: what it is actually worth and what you should pay. Every Resideline report opens with this same market snapshot for the subject's exact ZIP code, then gives you the property's value, the sold comps behind it, and a market rent estimate. Pricing a specific deal? The free ARV calculator and rental property calculator run the numbers in about a minute.

And we show our work. Every estimate is frozen while the home is for sale and graded against the real closing price after it sells. The public scoreboard currently shows 3.21% median error across 6,276+ graded closings, across 50 states.
