What Is Your Columbia, SC Home Worth?

What your home is worth, from the comps on your street. Not an online estimate: a number built from recent sales near you, with what you would walk away with.

Why an online estimate is only a starting point

If you want to know what your home is worth in Columbia, SC, an online estimate will give you a number in seconds. It will also miss most of what decides your price. It cannot see your new roof, the kitchen you redid, the busy road behind your back fence, or the fact that the house two doors down sold for less because it needed work.

A real home value comes from homes like yours that sold recently near you, adjusted for the differences. Across Columbia the spread is wide. In the twelve months ending October 8, 2026, the median sold price was $255,228 in Southeast Columbia (29209), $259,900 in Northeast Columbia (29229), and $437,938 in the Forest Acres and Trenholm Road area (29206), according to Consolidated MLS. Those are ZIP-wide medians. Your street can sit well above or below them.

This page is for homeowners who want a real number, whether you are ready to sell, thinking about it for next year, or just curious what your equity looks like.

How we value a home

At Taylored Realty Team, Terry and Yolanda Taylor pull the comparable sales from Consolidated MLS for your home specifically. We look at what sold, what is under contract, and what is sitting, because the homes a buyer will compare yours to this month matter as much as last spring's sales. Yolanda has been a REALTOR® since 2004 and holds the Pricing Strategy Advisor designation, as does Terry.

When you are getting ready to sell, we bring you three prices instead of one: a balanced price, an aggressive price meant to draw competing offers early, and a stretch price for testing the top of the market. Each one comes with what has to go right for it to work. That approach is described in the equity step of how we sell.

What you get from a home valuation

  • The comps that actually matter: recent sales near you, with the reasons each one sold for more or less than yours would.
  • A price range, explained in plain language, not a single number with no reasoning behind it.
  • Your estimated net, if you want it: what you would walk away with after the payoff and closing costs, on our seller net sheet.
  • What would move the number, such as repairs worth making and ones that are not, and how the time of year may matter.
  • No obligation. Plenty of homeowners ask us for a value and do not sell for years. That is fine.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the home valuation free?

Yes. We pull the comparable sales for your home and walk you through the range at no cost and with no obligation to list.

Why is your number different from Zillow's?

Online estimates use broad formulas and cannot see condition, updates, or what is happening on your street. We use recent comparable sales near your home and adjust for the differences.

How often do home values change?

They move with the market, so a value from six months ago may not hold. When our sellers are listed, we review the price with fresh comps every month.
