September is often treated as the beginning of the slower season in real estate. Summer vacations are ending, children are back in school, and the holidays suddenly do not seem very far away. For Charleston County homeowners considering a move, that can create an understandable question: Are buyers beginning to disappear? The homes that ratified contracts between September 1 and September 18, 2026, suggest that buyers are still very much participating in the market. They may simply be choosing more carefully.
During those eighteen days, 338 Charleston County homes went under contract. The median asking price at the time of ratification was approximately $635,000, and the median home had been on the market about 31 days. That is important because it shows that September did not suddenly bring the Charleston County market to a stop. Homes across a wide range of prices and locations were still finding buyers.
