Best In South Carolina Real Estate™: Hilton Head

Bluffton leads South Carolina in share of homes built since 2010 — 60.8% of its housing stock is less than 14 years old, according to ALEX Intelligence’s 2026 analysis of U.S. Census data. This is not just a new construction trend — it’s a structural advantage in coastal resilience, energy efficiency, and buyer demand. While other Lowcountry cities lag in new builds, Bluffton’s modern stock positions it for sustained appreciation and reduced long-term risk. How does this youthful housing profile affect your investment or relocation strategy?
