Charleston SC Real Estate Blog:  Greater Charleston March 2012 Housing Supply Outlook


This spring, expect signs of recovery to start blossoming around town. But be aware that this won't necessarily be the case for every neighborhood nor every market segment. For the 12-month period spanning April 2011 through March 2012, Pending Sales in the Charleston region were up 15.5 percent overall. The price range with the largest gain in sales was the $100,000 and Below range, where they increased 36.2 percent. The overall Median Sales Price was down 0.5 percent to $183,000. The property type with the largest price gain was the Single-Family segment, where prices increased 0.5 percent to $195,000. The price range that tended to sell the quickest was the $150,001 to $200,000 range at 96 days; the price range that tended to sell the slowest was the $350,001 and Above range at 154 days. Market-wide, inventory levels were down 25.5 percent. The property type that lost the least inventory was the Single-Family segment, where it decreased 24.4 percent. That amounts to 7.6 months supply for Single-Family homes and 8.7 months supply for Condos.  See additional information.
