“Josh Cousineau and team are nothing short of stellar. We were first time homebuyers in Maine, working through a no money down loan company that gave us a tough time throughout the home finding/ purchasing process. Josh and his team were able to negotiate around and navigate through their process with great speed and professionalism. If it weren't for Josh, we probably wouldn't be where we are now. Couldn't recommend him enough! Our five year old daughter still asks about him and Damon almost everyday, that's how awesome they are! If you're new to Maine or looking for your next home, these guys have your back. They help you understand each step of the process, and are very communicative of you have any questions. God bless the Cousineau team!”

Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Sep 2026).
Year-over-year trends in Penobscot County point to a cooling but still active housing scene, with typical home values edging down about a quarter of a percent while the statewide median rose roughly 3 percent. At the same time, inventory has grown, as active listings increased about 6 percent locally and more than 11 percent across Maine, contributing to a neutral market balance.
In the latest September 2026 snapshot, homes typically valued around $274,000 are being listed closer to $293,000, yet the share selling above list has dropped sharply month over month. With the average sale-to-list price ratio holding just under 97 percent and a median of 56 days on market, buyers are gaining more room to negotiate and more time to make decisions.
Stock on the market has deepened to about 4.5 months of supply, up more than 19 percent over the past year and matching the statewide level, which signals neither buyers nor sellers have a clear upper hand. Fewer new and pending listings compared with last month, along with flat year-over-year sales volumes, suggest a slower pace where strategy matters more. Buyers and sellers who want to navigate these shifting conditions can turn to Agent Pronto to be matched with a local agent who understands Penobscot County’s current dynamics.

“Chris is an absolutely phenomenal professional. We worked together for over a year due to my complicated schedule and relocation, and he never missed a beat. Chris quickly figured out exactly what my likes, dislikes, wants, and needs were. One of the things I appreciated most was his honesty. He never hesitated to point out both the good and the bad in the properties we looked at. He is incredibly knowledgeable, genuinely personable, and was by my side for the entire journey. When I was not available to be there in person, he stepped right up and coordinated seamlessly with a family member in my place to keep the process moving. If you need someone who is dedicated and there for you every step of the way, Chris is your guy!”
“Zach was the perfect agent for me. I came from away (out of state) and had a limited time to explore properties and complete my home purchase. Zach came up with an efficient schedule, accompanied me to multiple showings and made appropriate and knowledgeable comments without being judgmental about my preferences. Beyond that, he was especially good at explaining the process so I knew what to expect. When our purchase offer was accepted, he went above and beyond to get a great and thorough home inspection accomplished on a holiday so that I could attend and assess before I had to fly home. We ran into some complications with the seller interaction and Zach handled it all like a champ! We got it done and I would recommend Zach's services to anyone looking to buy a home. I am sure he is equally skilled and attentive as a seller agent.”
“We couldn’t be happier with our experience working with Ryan! From the very beginning, they were incredibly helpful, responsive, and patient as we searched for the right home. After a long search, we finally found the perfect place, and he was there every step of the way to make sure everything went smoothly. He went above and beyond to keep us informed, answer all of our questions, and make sure every detail was taken care of. Even when things got a little complicated, we always felt like we had someone in our corner who was looking out for our best interests and making sure everything stayed on track. Buying a home can be stressful, but having a realtor we trusted made such a huge difference. We are so grateful for all of his hard work, dedication, and support throughout the entire process. We absolutely love our new home and couldn’t have asked for a better person to help us get here! We highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. Thank you for helping make our dream of having a home in Greenville a reality!”
“I found Kyle after my contract ended with my prior agent. My home had not sold in 6 mos. After a short break we re-listed it and Kyle sold it in a weekend. Throughout the process Kyle was kind, professional and very responsive. I had a great experience and highly recommend him.”
“Christine Paul with Your Real Estate co is simply the best in the business, she continuously went above and beyond for our family helping us not only sell our home but also purchase a new home. From day one to closing she was prompt and seemingly working around the clock for our family to make it happen as easy and smooth as possible. From the bottom of our hearts a huge thank you to Christine Paul.”
“Noel was excellent to work with on the Dunbar property. He approached the transaction with an investor mindset, clearly explaining the numbers, risks, and long-term potential of the property. His communication was timely and professional, and he stayed on top of every detail through closing. Having an agent who understands both strategy and execution made the process smooth and confidence-inspiring.”
“An excellent and supportive experience!! Thank you Megan for your the time and effort you put in working with me! Being a purchaser of land and a home herself, Megan was very understanding. She would address my concerns sometimes before I could even express them. Informative, diligent and above all patient with the chaos that is a new land/home buyer, Megan was there through the whole process. Thank you again. I look forward to working with Meagan and the team at Pine Point on my next endeavor.”
“I recently had the pleasure of working with Steven Chicoine and his team at Keller Williams Realty to sell my property. From start to finish, Steven demonstrated exceptional expertise and professionalism. His deep understanding of the real estate market, coupled with his attention to detail, made the entire process seamless and efficient. The support and dedication from the Keller Williams Realty team were outstanding, ensuring every aspect of the sale was handled with utmost care. I am incredibly grateful for their hard work and would highly recommend Steven Chicoine and Keller Williams Realty to anyone looking to buy or sell property. Thank you for a job well done!”
“Jennifer went above and beyond. We saw the house on a whim while visiting from out of town. Called her from the front yard of the home on a Sunday and she met us there. We knew it was our forever home but hit some snags along the way. No only did Jennifer help us problem solve, she offered solutions! I could not speak highly of her enough. Will be using her again this year to help our dad purchase. She is truly wonderful.”
“Rod did an awesome job of knowing what the market is currently going for. He gave me confirmed realistic numbers that has helped lead to a really quick sale, not just for one home but two so far ?? Having someone like Rod who knows what he is doing made the process so very simple. Always super responsive and never leaves you wondering what to do.”
“Chelsea did an outstanding job assisting with the purchase of our home. Couldn't have done it without her. She is the best realtor you could ask for! An efficient go getter that gets the job done in a competitive market :)”
“Matt is the entire package deal when it comes to purchasing a home. From start to finish he was only a phone call away. From the start we gave him our “must haves” and he instantly put us onto several houses that fit our criteria, constantly ahead of the game and was always willing to show houses as soon as we possible to beat out the competition. Highly recommended for all your reality needs!!”
“Julie was more than amazing as our realtor. She went above and beyond the call of duty to get us in the perfect house. Would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone buying or selling!!!”
“Tess was very helpful during my search for a second property. She answered my questions promptly and and helped me negotiate the best possible price after her review of comps in the area. Would definitely recommend.”
