Best In South Carolina Real Estate™: Charleston

South Carolina's housing market is showing intriguing signals. The Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond reports a significant 22.9 percent increase in residential permitting activity across the state from May to June 2026, and a 9.4 percent rise year-over-year. This suggests a potential expansion in future housing supply. How might this impact market conditions in Charleston, especially as Fed President Thomas Barkin acknowledges a prevailing 'high uncertainty' in the broader U.S. economy? For context, in Williamson County, TX, the Central Appraisal District reported average residential market values saw a 3.8% decline from $473,876 in 2025 to $455,812 in 2026, highlighting varied regional dynamics.
