“Bought our home and decided to move just about a year later. Kevin and Amanda were able to set realistic expectations and create a gameplan that would work best for our situation. Throughout the selling process we made adjustments based on their experience and recommendations. Having a team you trust was a huge part of the selling process for us. I would recommend them to any family/friend in need of an agent.”

The typical home value in Benson is projected to be $304,000 for the month of August. July’s finalized data reported the typical value of a home in the city to be $300,000—down 18.48% over the previous 12 months. For comparison, county-level data pegged home values at $350,000 in Johnston County for the most recent reporting period. That number is expected to float around $345,010 in August.
Benson had 10 new listings and 3 listings that went under contract in July, increasing the area’s total available inventory to 21—up 31.25% from the previous month. Inventory is projected to have further increased in August.
Of those 21 active listings, 28.57% reduced their price in the month of July. The median listing price for homes in Benson fell 6.12% from June to July, bringing the current median listing price to $267,500. Based on projected data for August, listing prices may continue to fall.
The number of days that homes have been on the market prior to going under contract fell sharply year-over-year. In July 2025, the median time for a listed property to go pending was 36 days, compared to 46 days in July 2024. In recent months the median number of days from listed to pending appears to be decreasing. That trend is predicted to have carried through to this August.
Market gauge is calculated based on the the number of active listings divided by home sales over the most recently available reporting period.
