Where the sales come from in South Carolina

To record a deed, the buyer files an affidavit stating the property's value (the price paid) with the Register of Deeds or Clerk of Court. The office collects a deed recording fee of $1.85 per $500 and notes the fee on the deed. The price can be read from the affidavit or worked out from the fee.

Deed recording fee (state $1.30 plus county $0.55 per $500): "The fee is one dollar eighty-five cents for each five hundred dollars, or fractional part of five hundred dollars, of the realty's value"

South Carolina has 46 counties. Property Scan covers any of them, pulled on demand.

Every comp in a Property Scan report is a closed sale with a recorded price, adjusted for market time with the FHFA House Price Index for South Carolina, which rose 2.4% in the four quarters to the second quarter of 2026 (how comps are chosen and adjusted).

Pricing opinions under South Carolina rules

South Carolina's appraiser law does not apply to a real estate licensee who gives a valuation to a client or customer, as long as it is not called an appraisal. Where federal law does not require an appraiser, the licensee must give a set disclosure that the valuation can't be used to get financing in a federally related transaction.

“A real estate licensee licensed in accordance with Chapter 57, Title 40 who performs valuation services of real estate for a client or customer on the condition that the valuation service is not referred to as an appraisal. In performing a valuation service, which federal law or regulation does not require a license or certified appraiser, the real estate licensee must disclose to the requesting party: 'This valuation service may not be used for the purposes of obtaining financing in a federally related transaction.'”
S.C. Code Ann. § 40-60-30(1)

A Property Scan report prints “Comparative market analysis. Not an appraisal.” It doesn't print the statement this South Carolina rule sets out, so where the rule applies, add that statement before you give the report to anyone. Not legal advice.
