Higher and higher: Condo living in Greenville attracts more upscale buyers downtown

From the 12th floor, the view is breathtaking–the Reedy River tumbling through its rapids beneath the pedestrian-only Liberty Bridge, with Falls Park and the southern edge of downtown Greenville stretching into the distance. The price to wake up to it every day? Around $2 million.

In Greenville, condominium prices are rising as high as the new developments sprouting downtown. The current standard-setter is Falls Tower Camperdown, a 17-story mixed-use development that became the city’s second-tallest building when construction was completed in December. Of the tower’s 18 luxury condos, 10 were purchased in one day in 2019 for a combined $16 million, marking the largest single-day sales event in the history of Greenville residential real estate.

Greenville’s Spin Away From Textiles Brings Million-Dollar Condos

Knox White, mayor of Greenville, South Carolina, for 26 years and counting, gestures toward the residences above bustling retail shops and restaurants to show off the city’s success reviving a hollowed downtown once filled with massive textile mills that dumped waste into the neighboring river.

“Every one of them is filled with town homes and condos” that sell for $1 million to $2 million, White says. New townhouses and condominiums elsewhere in downtown start selling in the $800,000s and run to nearly $3 million, much more than the city’s median home price of $288,070, according to Census Bureau data. In all, the prices rival those found in cities much larger than Greenville’s population of nearly 68,000.
