Tega Cay, SC – March 22, 2026 – Home prices dipped slightly year over year in February while sales activity rose and days on market lengthened.
The Tega Cay housing market showed a mixed start to 2026, with modest price softening but stronger sales activity compared to a year ago.
Top takeaways
- Median sale price was about $555K in February, down 1.9% year over year.

- Median days on market rose to 106 days, signaling a slower pace for sellers.
Market snapshot
According to recent market data, February 2026 closed with a median sale price near $555,000. While that marks a slight annual decline, closed sales increased notably from 16 to 24 transactions year over year. Homes are taking longer to sell, averaging more than three months on market, compared with roughly 72 days last year.
Price per square foot has also edged lower from a year ago, reflecting more negotiation and selective buyer activity. Inventory levels remain limited compared with larger metro areas, but buyers appear to have more breathing room than during the peak competitive cycle.
What’s for sale
Current listings range from lake-adjacent single-family homes to townhomes and golf course properties. Recent Realtor.com activity shows updated listings in early March, including four-bedroom homes near community parks and waterfront amenities. Buyers are seeing a mix of move-in-ready properties and homes that may invite cosmetic updates.
Zillow’s home value index data through early 2026 indicates relatively stable long-term appreciation, even as short-term pricing adjusts.
Outlook
Longer marketing times suggest sellers may need to price carefully and prepare homes thoroughly. At the same time, the jump in closed sales points to steady underlying demand. As spring activity builds, watching new listings and contract activity will be key indicators for where pricing heads next.
