How much is an inherited Dewees Island home worth in 2026?

An inherited home on Dewees Island is valued through the island's small, ferry-access-only comp set rather than any broader Charleston-area figure, since Dewees allows no bridge traffic and very limited new construction. Heirs should confirm the stepped-up tax basis at the date of death with a CPA before estimating any gain on a future sale. Brian Beatty tracks Dewees Island's limited closings and builds a heir-specific comparison before recommending whether to list or hold.
