Conway continues to offer a different feel from the beach-centered parts of the Grand Strand, with historic downtown appeal, riverfront character, Coastal Carolina University access, and practical connections to Highway 501, Highway 544, and inland growth areas.

The median sold price was $309,970, and homes sold at about 97.9% of list price. Months of inventory reached 4.99, which suggests buyers have room to compare options, but the market is not sitting still.

Inventory: 4.99 months of supply, up 26.6% month over month.

💡 What This Means for You

Thinking of selling?
Conway can still support a strong sale, but buyers are comparison shopping. Homes that are priced correctly, show well, and line up with current competition are in the strongest position. Overpricing can cost time and bargaining power.

Thinking of buying?
Conway may offer more negotiating room than some tighter coastal markets. Buyers should still pay attention to property condition, flood considerations, commute routes, HOA details, age of systems, and total monthly cost.

Watching values?
The median estimated property value was $298,370, up slightly from last month and up 1.4% over 12 months. Median sold price was also up slightly from last month and up 1.46% over 12 months, which points to a steady market rather than a dramatic swing.

🤝 Let’s Talk Strategy
Whether you’re buying, selling, or just tracking the market, context matters. Conway is not one single market. Historic homes, newer subdivisions, townhomes, condos, manufactured homes, semi-rural properties, and growth-area neighborhoods can all behave differently.
