Happy Sunday, Upstate friends! ☀️🏡 Let’s start the week with a quick look at our local housing market.

As of the end of August, Zillow counted 1,812 homes for sale in Spartanburg County. Countywide, homes took a median of 58 days on the market in August. (zillow.com⁠)

Mortgage rates matter, too: Freddie Mac’s national average for a 30-year fixed mortgage was 7.03% on September 24. Your actual rate will depend on your loan and qualifications. (freddiemac.com⁠)

Thinking about buying? Let’s look at your payment and the homes available in your budget.

Thinking about selling? Pricing for today’s market and making a strong first impression can help your home stand out.

Whether a move is around the corner or still just an idea, I’d love to help you make a plan. 🤎

🏡 SPARTANBURG MARKET UPDATE — AUGUST 2026 📊

Let’s break down what’s actually happening in our local market—without all the confusing real estate language! 👏

📍 Spartanburg Local Market: August 2026

🏠 246 new listings
That’s up 7% from August 2025, which means buyers had more homes to choose from.

🔑 124 homes closed
That’s only 1.6% fewer than last August, so homes are absolutely still selling!

💰 Median sales price: $258,995
That’s down 2.3% compared to $265,000 last August. However, the year-to-date median price is $259,990, which is still 1.2% higher than this time last year.

📋 Sellers received an average of 98.6% of list price
That’s up from 97.5% last August. Correctly priced homes are still holding their value and attracting serious buyers!

⏰ Average days on market: 68 days
Last August, the average was only 36 days. Homes are taking longer to sell, so sellers may need more patience and a strong pricing and marketing strategy.

🏘️ 635 homes were available for sale
That’s a 22.4% increase from last August, giving buyers more choices and a little more negotiating power.

💡 So, what does all of this mean?

The market is becoming more balanced—not crashing!

Buyers: You have more homes to choose from, more time to make thoughtful decisions and potentially more room to negotiate.

Sellers: Homes are still selling and prices remain fairly steady, but proper pricing, preparation and marketing matter more than ever. Overpricing your home and hoping the market catches up may cause it to sit longer.

Every neighborhood and price range behaves differently, so the overall numbers only tell part of the story. If you’re considering buying or selling, let’s look at what’s happening in the specific area and price point that matters to you! 🏡🤎

🚨 FRIENDLY REAL ESTATE REMINDER:

Seeing “PRICE REDUCED” on a home doesn’t automatically mean there’s a problem with it! 🏡

I know what buyers sometimes think:

👀 Why is it still available?
👀 Is something wrong with it?
👀 Does this mean the seller will accept anything?

Not necessarily! 😂

There are plenty of normal reasons a seller may adjust the price:

• The original price may have been higher than the market supported
• Similar homes may have recently become available
• Buyer demand or affordability may have shifted
• The seller may simply be ready to make a move

A price reduction doesn’t always mean desperation. It can mean the seller is paying attention, being realistic, and responding to the market. 👏🏼

Buyers have more options right now, they’re watching their monthly payments closely, and they aren’t rushing into decisions. That makes the right pricing strategy incredibly important!

So, don’t immediately scroll past a home just because you see “PRICE REDUCED.” ‼️

It may not be a red flag at all. In fact, it could be a green light and possibly the opportunity you’ve been waiting for! 💚🔑

Ask questions. Review the property. Compare it to other homes. Learn why the price changed. Then make an informed decision.

That’s exactly what your real estate agent is here to help you do! 😉
