Mount Pleasant CONDO & TOWNHOME Market: Still a Buyer's Market!

Mount Pleasant SC Condo & Townhome Real Estate Market

The real estate market for condominium and townhome (single family attached) properties in Mount Pleasant is slowly getting better, but is still very much a Buyer's market. 

During the last 12 months inventory declined from 370 units to 288 units.

Many condominium and townhome communities have also been a...

MOUNT PLEASANT REAL ESTATE: DOING BETTER THAN WE THINK!

Thu, Jun 2nd 2011 9:39 am by Alan Donald Mt Pleasant Real Estate Market

Mount Pleasant Real Estate: Doing Better Than We Think!

We keep hearing about how terrible our market is, how prices have tumbled, etc. The graph of Median Home Price for Mount Pleasant on Trulia.com since the year 2000 (see below) tells another story: According to this graph, the picture is not so bleak: We are back to 2004-2005 price levels!
