Selling a house in South Carolina: the rules that matter
Who runs the closing
South Carolina requires an attorney to conduct the closing. A cash sale still closes on a normal two-to-three-week timeline.
Seller taxes and fees
South Carolina’s deed recording fee works out to $1.85 per $500 of the price (0.37%), customarily a seller cost.
The foreclosure clock
South Carolina is a judicial-foreclosure state — the lender files suit and the case runs through the court to a judicial sale, which typically takes many months. More runway than trustee-sale states, but costs accrue throughout.
