How to read these figures
The Zillow Home Value Index estimates the value of a typical home in the middle third of the market, single-family homes and condos together, smoothed and adjusted for the season. It covers all homes, not only those that sold, so it moves slowly. It is the best single number for “what is a typical Mount Pleasant home worth.”
Median sale price is the middle price of homes that actually sold that month, and it jumps around: Zillow’s figure for Mount Pleasant was $765,000 in February 2026 and $890,000 in July. Read the trend over several months, not one.
Days to pending counts the days from listing to an accepted offer. Zillow does not publish it for the town alone, so the table uses the Charleston metro area.
The FHFA House Price Index tracks repeat sales of the same homes with mortgages backed by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. The closest FHFA area is the Charleston-North Charleston metro. It measures change, not price.
The Census Bureau’s 2019-2023 American Community Survey puts the median value of owner-occupied homes in Mount Pleasant at $667,100. That survey asks owners what they think their home is worth and averages five years, so it runs below current market figures. More Census figures are in our population guide.
