Implications and Trends
Average Home Prices: The median home price in South Carolina averages $372,700, marking a 6.5% YoY increase. The trend is expected to continue with a marginal rise in the median sale price due to the state’s tight inventory.
Home Sales: January 2024 data indicates a 0.7% YoY increase in home sales. With 4,179 homes sold compared to 4,148 in January 2023.

South Carolina Housing Market Predictions 2024
Home Sellers’ Comeback: In 2024, sellers who stayed on the sidelines in 2023, particularly those compelled by new job opportunities or a desire for affordability, are expected to re-enter the market. Analyst Whitney, known for accurately predicting the 2008 financial crisis, forecasts up to 30 million housing units hitting the market, primarily driven by downsizing baby boomers.
Stabilization of Mortgage Interest Rates: After reaching a peak of 7.79% in October 2023, mortgage rates saw a decline to 7.35% in November. Despite remaining above 6%, the expectation is for rates to stabilize in the second half of 2024. Factors such as a softening labor market and a slowing economy contributed to this shift. Along with a decrease in the annual inflation rate from 3.7% to 3.2%.
Rise in Home Buyers: The historically high interest rates deterred buyers in 2023. But the lowering of rates to 7.35% in November sparked a resurgence in mortgage demand. The combination of easing inflation and stabilized rates is predicted to bring back homebuyers.
Continued Increase in Home Prices: Across top metros in South Carolina, home prices steadily rose year-over-year. Reaching $373,000 in January 2024. Experts project a continued upward trajectory in home prices until the dynamics of low supply and high demand undergo a significant change.
Upward Trend in New Home Construction Sales: In September, 12.3% of home purchases were new constructions, marking the highest percentage since 2022. In 2023, home builders offered $30,000 worth of concessions to attract buyers. Additionally, the expectation for 2024 is increased competition between builders and sellers to capture buyer attention.
