Older homes than most of the region
Hanahan is a Berkeley County city of 21,452 people (U.S. Census Bureau, ACS 2024 5-year). Its housing is older than its neighbors': the median home was built in 1986, and 45.0% of units predate 1980. Among the places we track, only the Town of James Island has older stock. By comparison, about 16% of homes in neighboring Goose Creek are that old.
Older homes often come with original systems, dated kitchens and baths, or deferred roof and plumbing work. We buy as-is, so none of that has to be fixed or cleaned before you sell; leave what you don't want.
Hanahan at a glance
- Owners: 68.1% of occupied homes are owner-occupied, 31.9% rented.
- Value: ACS median owner-estimated value $374,800.
- Market: Redfin's data center shows a $450,000 median sale price and 43 median days on market in May 2026, from just 25 sales, so treat it as a rough snapshot.
- County: all Berkeley County, so taxes, deeds and probate run through Berkeley County offices.

What long-time owners should know
Lead-paint disclosure. For homes built before 1978, federal lead-based paint disclosure rules apply to the sale, whoever the buyer is.
Taxes reset for the buyer. South Carolina caps reassessment increases at 15% over five years, and a sale resets the value to market. A long-time owner's assessed value may sit well below market. That affects the next owner's bill, not your sale price, but it is one reason heirs who keep a house as a rental can see higher taxes: rentals are assessed at 6%, not the 4% owner-occupied rate. This is general information, not legal or tax advice. Ask your CPA.
Our price, plainly
Our cash offer will usually be less than what you might get listing with an agent after repairs. That's the trade for speed, certainty, no repairs and no fees. Use the cash offer vs. listing calculator to compare, and feel free to get an agent's opinion too. Read how cash offers are calculated.

Common questions from Hanahan sellers
Will you buy a Hanahan house that hasn't been updated in decades?
Yes. We buy as-is, with no repairs and no cleaning, and you can leave behind anything you don't want. We price from the house's current condition, a repair estimate, comparable sales and what we need to resell, then send a written offer within 24–48 hours of seeing it or getting the details we need.
I inherited my parents' Hanahan house. Can I sell it before probate ends?
It depends on the will and the estate. A personal representative can usually sell if the will allows it; otherwise a court order may be needed. Hanahan estates go through the Berkeley County Probate Court, and creditors have 8 months to file claims. This is general information, not legal or tax advice. Ask the estate's attorney.
Who handles the closing?
A licensed South Carolina attorney, as state law requires for the title search, closing and recording. You can also hire your own attorney. We pay the closing costs, including the deed recording fee. You pick the closing date, in as little as 7–14 days when the title is clear, or later.
