Medians need five sales; under that, the count is all we show. The MLS knows this place as “Seascape Villas”. Many Kiawah Island listings name only the island, so this is a floor, not every sale here.

Annual assessment — home or villa
$2,562 general + $357 reserve + $239 amenity (Sandcastle)
ConfirmedContribution to Reserves (the "transfer fee")
The rate is confirmed. The minimum is "the current Annual Assessment" — $3,158 if all three 2026 charges count, $2,562 if only the general one does. Being confirmed with KICA.
0.5% of the price, never less than the current annual assessment — so the floor applies below about $631,600
ConflictingProperty Sale Administration Fee
$100 one time

Vary by regime; not published by KICA
Not publishedKiawah Island Club membership
Available only with select properties. Agent pages report initiation at $185,000 golf, $160,000 sports and $120,000 social, and say it is mandatory in Cassique and The Settlement — none of that is from the Club.
SecondaryShort-term rental license
Licenses in capped areas are first come, first served. The Town issues them — not KICA.
Application $500 (R-1 and capped R-2 streets) or $200 (other zones), plus a rental license tax: $75 on the first $2,000 of rent, then $3.05 per $1,000
ConfirmedProperty tax levy — St. John's Fire District
216.1 countywide mills + 30.0 St. John's Fire District. Covers Seabrook (TD 53), Kiawah (TD 54), and Johns Island and Wadmalaw outside any town (TD 51 — "T.D. 5-1" on the county map).

Ask these before you buy here
- Ask Poston & Company for this year's regime budget and the regime fee, in writing. Nobody publishes it.
- Ask whether a special assessment is planned or underway, and what the reserves hold.
- Ask what the regime's master insurance covers and what you insure yourself.
- Ask what the regime maintains — roofs, siding, docks, pools — and what's yours.
- If you'll rent it out: the Town of Kiawah Island licenses short-term rentals, and in capped areas licenses go first come, first served. Ask the regime for its own rules too.
- Look up the flood zone for the exact address — zones change within a neighborhood. Look it up.
Mike asks them for you — and reads the regime's answers before you sign.
