Does the cellar-versus-basement distinction change what my Isle of Palms house is worth?

Isle of Palms homes rarely have a true cellar or basement at all, since flood zone construction rules push living space up on pilings rather than down below grade, so that distinction does not really apply here. What actually changes an Isle of Palms house's worth is its elevation certificate, storage or garage space underneath the home, and how it meets current flood-zone building requirements. Brian Beatty checks those specifics rather than a cellar-versus-basement label that rarely fits an island property.
