Where to Look in Spartanburg County

What to Check Before You Buy a Home on Acreage in Spartanburg County

• Septic system: Most homes on acreage use a septic system. Have it inspected and pumped during your inspection period, and ask for the permit and repair history. Repairs and new systems are permitted by the South Carolina Department of Environmental Services (formerly part of DHEC).
• Well water: If the home is on a private well, have the water tested by a certified lab and check the well and pump. If public water reaches the road, ask what it would cost to connect.
• Survey and boundaries: Get a current survey to confirm the acreage, the boundary lines, easements and any encroachments. Some rural listings use estimated acreage.
• Barns, shops and other buildings: Outbuildings, guest houses and fencing add value. Confirm they were permitted and sit on the property you are buying.
• Animals and home businesses: If you want horses, chickens or a business on the property, check the zoning and any recorded restrictions or HOA covenants first.
• Driveway and internet: Make sure the driveway is on the property or a recorded easement, and confirm internet options at the address.
• Flood zones: Check FEMA flood maps, especially near the Tyger, Pacolet and Enoree Rivers and their creeks.

How Land Use Rules Work in Spartanburg County

Unincorporated Spartanburg County uses a Performance Zoning Ordinance. It does not assign traditional residential or commercial zones, and focuses instead on buffers, setbacks and how new development fits its surroundings. Cities and towns such as Spartanburg, Greer, Inman, Landrum and Woodruff have their own zoning. Before you buy, confirm whether the home is in city or town limits and what the rules allow for your plans.

Property Taxes on Acreage in South Carolina

• Your home: If you live in the home, apply for the 4% legal residence ratio. It covers the home and up to 5 acres around it.
• The rest of the land: Land used for farming or timber may qualify for the 4% agricultural ratio instead of 6%. Timberland generally needs 5 or more acres. Other farmland needs 10 or more acres, or at least $1,000 in gross farm income in 3 of the last 5 years.
• Rollback taxes: If agricultural land changes to another use, rollback taxes can apply. Ask about this before you buy.

The Spartanburg County Assessor handles both applications. We can help you understand how a property is taxed today.
