THE SHORT ANSWER
Relocating to Charleston is as much about choosing a lifestyle as choosing a property.
Begin with your priorities
Consider commute, home style, outdoor space, access to the coast, budget and long-term plans. Visit several areas before narrowing the search.
Understand coastal ownership
Request property-specific information about flood risk, wind and flood insurance, drainage, maintenance, taxes and HOA requirements. Use qualified specialists for detailed advice.
What should you do next?
Make a list of your priorities and the questions you still need answered. When you're making a property decision, compare options using current local information and seek appropriate professional guidance for technical, legal, tax, insurance or construction questions.
