Wellford, SC Housing Market 2026: Median Home Price, Last 12 Months

Wellford closes a lot of homes into a narrow band, which makes its median unusually informative: sales over the last 12 months land close together, so the citywide number is a real anchor rather than an average of extremes.

The snapshot

  • •Closings tracked, last 12 months: 258
  • •Median sold price, last 12 months: $288,445
  • •Median sold $/sqft, last 12 months: $146
  • •Middle half of sales closed between: $270,000 and $322,104

What the numbers say

Resideline tracked 258 closed sales in Wellford over the last 12 months, with a median closing price of $288,445. 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 $270,000 and $322,104. 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 Resideline tracks and may differ from complete county or municipal records. 98% of the Wellford closings we track here are single-family houses, so these figures primarily reflect that segment, and the citywide $/sqft figure primarily reflects that segment as well. Across the 258 closings with usable living area, the middle half sold between $130 and $171 per square foot.

How long a sale takes here

  • •Listed to under contract: a median of 53 days, across 211 Wellford closings Resideline tracked in the last 12 months
  • •Contract to closing: a median of 35 days, across 217 Wellford closings Resideline tracked in the last 12 months
Both are measured from the closings themselves, not from listing inventory. Each sale is timed using its own listing and contract dates. That is why these counts are smaller than the 258 closings above: a sale is counted here only when we hold both of its dates.

The Wellford angle

Wellford closed 258 tracked sales over the last 12 months at a median of $288,445, with a middle half of only $270,000 to $322,104. That sits among the tightest spreads we track, which is what a market dominated by recent construction to a small number of plans looks like in the numbers. The upper stretch of the band is longer than the lower stretch, so the variation that does exist comes from the better finished end.

From market read to offer price

A tight market makes the next step easier: the citywide anchor sits close to most homes, and a report only has to explain the gap. 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, rehab cost estimator, BRRRR 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. See the live accuracy dashboard for the receipts, or read how the Area Market Snapshot works.

Run any Wellford address through Resideline and you will see the local market and the property's value together, in one report.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the median home price in Wellford?

How many homes sold in Wellford last month?

Resideline has tracked 9 closed sales in Wellford in September 2026 so far, out of 258 closings tracked over the last 12 months. The most recent month keeps filling in for several weeks as closings are recorded, so this count will rise. These are tracked samples of market activity, not official county totals.

What is the typical sale price range in Wellford?

What is the typical price per square foot in Wellford?

Among qualifying Wellford closings Resideline tracked over the last 12 months, the median sold price per square foot was $146, measured across 258 sales with usable living area. Median is used rather than average because outliers distort the mean.

Is the Wellford median reliable for a newly built home?

For a home that resembles the local norm, it is about as reliable as a citywide figure gets. The middle half of tracked closings is among the tightest spreads we track, meaning most sales really do land close together. The exceptions are worth naming: an older house, a larger lot or an unusual plan is exactly what a narrow band cannot represent. If your subject is one of those, price it against sales that share the difference and expect the citywide median to understate or overstate it.
