Vacation Homes Make Up 4.5% of South Carolina Housing, 15th Most in the U.S.

September 16, 2026

The U.S. faces a shortage of 4.03 million homes due to insufficient residential construction compared to household growth. This scarcity drives up prices and rents, making housing less affordable for buyers and renters. It also limits market entry for first-time buyers, restricts affordable living locations for workers, and increases housing instability for lower-income renters.
