Renting in Charleston

Charleston is about 44% renters, and just under half its housing is single-family detached, according to the U.S. Census Bureau's 2020–2024 American Community Survey. Half the homes were built after 1994, but the peninsula's historic housing is far older, and the two rent very differently. Set your price from homes like yours in your part of the city. Homes built before 1978 need a federal lead-based paint disclosure. The median renter household pays $1,722 a month including utilities, a figure that includes apartments.

“My Nomad contact was able to answer my questions and provide some additional information that helped me understand the language in the lease agreement with my tenant and how my funds will be distributed to my account. She also did some research and sent me a follow-up email with the answers about the Nomad platform process.”
