ZIP 29902 Housing Market & Real Estate Update (Feb 21, 2026)
29902 – February 21, 2026 – Beaufort, SC market check: prices mostly flat-to-up, inventory improving, and homes taking longer to go pending.
ZIP 29902 (Beaufort, South Carolina, Beaufort County): recent portal updates point to a steadier market than the boom years, with more choice for buyers and a slower pace for many listings.
Top takeaways
- Recent pricing reads cluster in the high-$400Ks for typical list/sale benchmarks, with only modest year-over-year change.
- Inventory is not ultra-tight on the portals, and days on market are longer than last year.
- Rents look softer year over year in the latest ZIP-level rental snapshot.
Market snapshot
Zillow (through Jan 31, 2026): typical home value about $409,450, with about 136 homes for sale and 20 new listings in its latest monthly cut.
Redfin (Jan 2026): median sale price about $455K (+0.9% YoY), with homes selling in about 78 days. Redfin also indicates the average sale is closing roughly 3% below list, a sign that many buyers still have negotiating room.
Realtor.com (Dec 2025 reporting period): median home value shown near $492,170, about 220 active listings, and a median 106 days on market. (Counts differ by portal, so use these as directional signals.)
Rentals
Realtor.com’s ZIP dashboard shows about 47 rentals and a median rent near $1,850/mo, with the year-over-year comparison on that page lower. For renters, that can mean more leverage on concessions; for landlords, it raises the bar on condition, photos, and responsiveness.
What’s for sale nearby (no-address look)
- Single-family homes: many listings are marketed around the high-$400Ks to low-$500Ks on the big portals.
- Lower-price filters: Redfin’s 29902 budget-focused searches still show a sizable pool, but expect tradeoffs (age/condition) and longer timelines.
- Rentals: with fewer than 50 listings showing on Realtor.com’s ZIP snapshot, well-priced rentals can still go quickly.
