North Charleston, SC Housing Market 2026: What's Actually Selling Right Now

What the numbers say

Resideline tracked 582 closed sales in North Charleston over the last six months, with a median closing price of $335,000. 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 $265,000 and $459,900. 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 North Charleston sale prices land

Medians hide the shape of a market.

Where your target property sits inside that spread matters more than the citywide median.

The North Charleston angle

North Charleston carries the region's industrial and logistics base, including port operations, the Boeing campus and Joint Base Charleston, and its housing prices well below the peninsula. The median of 582 tracked closings was $335,000, with the middle half between $265,000 and $459,900. That $195,000 gap separates the older neighborhoods along the Rivers Avenue corridor from newer development toward Park Circle and the northern edges of the city. Monthly closed counts held near 142 to 152 in May and June. For an investor priced out of Charleston proper, North Charleston's lower quartile is the realistic entry point, with the caveat that condition varies widely across those older sections.

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.
