Medians need five sales; under that, the count is all we show. The MLS knows this place as “Salt Marsh”. Many Seabrook Island listings name only the island, so this is a floor, not every sale here.
The county’s record: 24 homes and 0 empty lots on the assessor’s roll; 14 home deeds recorded since January 1, 2021 (no median across phases or under 5). Deeds count every sale — builder, private and MLS — so they never match the MLS line for line.

Annual assessment — home or villa
A buyer inherits any unpaid SIPOA charges, so the closing attorney gets a SIPOA status letter.
$3,133 a year
ConfirmedRegime fee, as listing agents typed it
Agents' entries in the MLS, annualized — not the regime's number. The regime's budget is the source; ask its manager.
$4,000 a year (median of 6 listings)
Cross-checkTransfer assessment ("contribution to capital")
SIPOA's covenants confirm a transfer assessment set as a percentage of price; the 0.5% rate itself appears only in agent pages and MLS remarks. Being confirmed with SIPOA.

Ask these before you buy here
- Ask Ravenel Associates 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 Seabrook Island permits short-term rentals, and the Club lists a rental guest amenity fee. 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.
