A look at Charleston’s economy:
The Charleston economy is doing great. The Port of Charleston now ranks as the nation’s eighth-largest maritime hub after experiencing the largest annual cargo growth of any major U.S. seaport since 2010. Fledgling airline Avelo announced on Feb. 16 it will launch flights in May between Charleston and New Haven, Conn., the low-cost carrier’s East Coast base. Back-to-back record-setting sales of industrial properties illustrate growing interest in the Charleston region from deep-pocketed investors that buy warehouse and distribution centers as a snarled supply chain puts a focus on markets near the Southeast’s booming population.

Of course, our real estate market is doing fantastic. 2021 was a record year but 2022 sales could be dampened by even lower active inventory. We ended 2021 with a 10.1% increase in transactions over the record set in 2020. But inventory continues to drop. We got up to about 2000 active listings at times in 2021. And that was certainly less than the 3k-4k we saw in 2020. But we now have less than 1000 active listings. Less than 450 in the tri-county area for less than $500k. This has hurt sales a bit. Jan 2022 was down 3.9% in transactions versus Jan 2021. And Jan 2022 was down 29% in transactions versus December of 2021. It’s very difficult to keep up the sales numbers with inventory so low. Potential home sellers are anxious about their ability to purchase a new home. Of course, builders are having a supply chain and labor issues. This discussion is similar to most real estate markets around the US.
