Mark Lumpkin breaks down the short-term rental market in Charleston — one of the most desirable and tightly regulated STR markets in the Southeast.

Charleston is a heavyweight market:

  • Over 8 million annual visitors
  • More than $14 billion in tourism impact
  • Strong ADRs and occupancy
  • And some of the strictest STR regulations in the country

In this episode, Mark dives into:

  • Why Charleston continues to attract massive tourism demand
  • Where travelers are coming from and why they visit
  • The importance of weddings, bachelorette groups, and food tourism
  • Why Charleston’s strict regulations actually create opportunity
  • What investors need to know before buying in the market

The data shows that Charleston isn’t just another beach destination — it’s a premium travel market with strong demand, limited supply, and travelers willing to spend.

If you can secure the right property in the right zoning area, Charleston can be an incredibly powerful STR market.
