“We truly couldn’t have asked for a better realtor for such an important milestone! As first-time homeowners in North Carolina after moving from California, we had a lot of questions and a lot to learn, and Matthew was there for us every step of the way. Matthew was an absolute wealth of knowledge, incredibly knowledgeable about the area, and a fantastic negotiator. Anytime we had a question, no matter what time of day, he was always quick to respond and make sure we understood everything. His patience throughout the entire process made such a difference. One thing that really stood out to us was how wonderful he was with our toddler. He was so kind, patient, and understanding with our whole family, which made what could have been a stressful process feel so much easier and more enjoyable. We viewed so many houses that my toddler kept asking “where’s Matthew”. We were highly recommended to Matthew by a family member, and we are so grateful we took their recommendation. He is genuinely one of the nicest people we’ve had the pleasure of working with, and we truly enjoyed getting to know him throughout the process. Moving across the country from California and purchasing our first home in North Carolina was a huge step for our family, and having someone as knowledgeable, responsive, patient, and trustworthy as Matthew made all the difference. We couldn’t have asked for a better realtor and would absolutely recommend Matthew to anyone looking to buy or sell a home! He is actually working with my mom now to purchase her first real estate in North Carolina as well!”

Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026 - Sep 2026).
Year-over-year, Black Mountain’s rolling three-month numbers show prices rising while listing strategies adjust. The typical home value is up about 10 percent from last year even as the median list price has dipped nearly 8 percent, suggesting sellers are pricing more cautiously while values trend higher.
Looking at activity, homes sold over the latest three-month period increased roughly 14 percent compared with a year ago, while pending sales are also slightly higher. At the same time, new listings are down about 7 percent year over year, which helps explain why active inventory has still grown nearly 7 percent and months of supply has climbed to around 5.3.
Conditions on the ground reflect a slower but still seller-leaning environment. Homes are spending a median of 83 days on the market and only about 5 percent are selling above list, with an average sale-to-list ratio near 95 percent, so pricing and negotiation strategy really matter for both buyers and sellers seeking the right Agent Pronto–recommended agent.

Black Mountain offers residents a vibrant blend of outdoor recreation, a welcoming small-town community, and convenient access to shops, dining, and cultural events in a scenic, laid-back setting.
Black Mountain offers small-town scale with easy access to larger hubs, sitting just east of Asheville and close to regional transit and healthcare. Residents enjoy walkable streets, mountain views, and a practical mix of everyday services and outdoor recreation.
Downtown centers on locally owned spots like The Dripolator Coffeehouse and My Father’s Pizza, with galleries, music venues, and boutiques clustered along Broadway and State Street. The town maintains an active calendar, and community parks such as Lake Tomahawk Park add walking paths, playgrounds, and tennis to the daily routine.

Outdoor access is one of the area’s biggest advantages. Residents are minutes from hiking in Montreat and the expansive trail systems off the Blue Ridge Parkway. Nearby Asheville’s cultural offerings are close enough for commuting, while still allowing Black Mountain to maintain a quieter pace.

“Travis was excellent to work with. He was almost always available and could answer your questions, if he didn't know right then, he would find out quickly. He was very knowledgeable in all aspects of his work. I felt very confident working with him and would do it again.”
“It was a pleasure working with Debi throughout this transaction. She was professional, friendly, and easy to communicate with, and the process went very smoothly from start to finish. I really appreciated her professionalism and the positive experience throughout the transaction.”
“We couldn’t have asked for better realtors than Kelsey and Joseph. Buying a home from out of state meant we each had to make separate trips to North Carolina, and they were incredibly generous with their time, flexible with our schedules, and always prepared with thoughtful research and honest advice. What made them exceptional was not only their knowledge of the market, but how well they worked as a team. We always knew that if one of them wasn’t available, the other was fully informed and ready to step in. They had each other’s backs, and just as importantly, they always had our best interests at heart. We explored communities from Fletcher and Hendersonville to Lake Lure before ultimately finding the perfect home in Black Mountain. Their local knowledge, willingness to share candid opinions, and ability to truly listen helped us find the right home, not just another house. They also guided us through a difficult negotiation with professionalism, patience, and confidence. We are incredibly grateful for their partnership throughout the entire process and would enthusiastically recommend Kelsey and Joseph to anyone looking for knowledgeable, trustworthy real estate professionals who genuinely care about their clients.”
“What i was expecting as a first-time buyer, versus how straightforward, logical, and easy the process was with Bob and Cheryl, was really one of the biggest surprises of my adult life. I am a busy guy, and they had the right people, resources, and advice at every turn. I feel so lucky I hooked up with them - there's no way every buyer has it as good as i did. I will take the "w"... you should, too. 5 out of 5, out of 5!”
“David helped us buy our home in 2018. He is a pleasure to work with. He had checked in on us over the years and we will use him again if we ever purchase/sell another home. I have recommended him to multiple friends in the area!”
“From the first meeting we appreciated Kimberly's knowledge and willingness to work with us and her presentation. It was simple, straightforward and clear. Her photographer was top knotch and excellent and within a few days our home was in MLS with beautiful pictures. Every interaction was prompt and friendly all the way through final details and settlement. We would definitely hire Kimberly again and absolutely recommend her to others to sell their home. THANK YOU Kimberly!”
“Rebecca did an excellent job in promoting the sale of our house, having showings even when the weather was not too coperative. She showed efficiency in her knowledge of the market and was able to sell our house in a couple of months. She always answered all our questions either by phone, or e-mails or texts which we really appreciated.”
“Erik has been one of the best realtors I have ever worked with. He is considerate of my needs and interests as he works with me on a deal. His extensive knowledge and network differentiates him from the rest. Highly recommend Erik and Red Tree Properties for any of your real estate needs.”
“Rachael has been incredible to work with. She helped us purchase land in Asheville and sell our home and made the entire process feel smooth and stress free. Her customer service is truly unmatched. She is incredibly responsive, easy to work with, and always goes out of her way to help. Rachael genuinely cares about her clients and their experience and it shows in everything she does. I would recommend her to anyone buying or selling.”
“I cannot express my gratitude enough for Mush! He was fantastic. Listened and learned what we needed. Fought for us and did not take no for an answer with our seller! Beyond the best realtor I have ever met! You will not be disappointed by contacting him!”
“Good communication and very responsive. On top of things.”
“Kathleen went above and beyond to get my house market ready. While closing was delayed a week because of hurricane Helene, Kathleen went out of her way to make sure that we stayed on track! I would highly recommend her to anyone that is looking to sell their home. She is now not just a realtor but has became a friend!”
“Paul was referred to me by Chris Smith in his office. Paul was on top of everything and so helpful in showing me properties that we had identified in both Asheville and Hendersonville. There was a lot of ground to cover but I am thrilled with the results. I was Realtor in Florida for 8 years, so I know the importance of a good agent to get a good result. I was pleased with Paul's service through the entire process.”
“I cannot express enough gratitude for the outstanding service provided by Chris Houck throughout our journey of purchasing a piece of land that my family is ecstatic about building a future home on. From the moment we set our sights on the property until the final paperwork was signed, Chris demonstrated unparalleled professionalism, dedication, and expertise. Chris's in-depth knowledge of the local real estate market was evident from our very first meeting. He took the time to thoroughly understand our vision and the specific requirements we had for the land. Throughout the process, Chris remained patient and attentive, guiding us with invaluable insights and expertise. Chris's proactive approach and attention to detail were truly impressive. From scouting the potential property to conducting thorough due diligence on the chosen land, Chris left no stone unturned in their efforts to ensure that our investment aligned perfectly with our aspirations. Their ability to navigate negotiations and facilitate a smooth closing process was instrumental in securing the ideal piece of land for a future home. One of the most remarkable aspects of working with Chris was his unwavering support and commitment, even through the inevitable ups and downs of the real estate process. Chris stood by our side every step of the way, offering guidance, reassurance, and expert advice whenever needed. His genuine care and concern for our satisfaction and well-being made us feel truly valued as clients. Throughout the entire journey, communication was seamless. Chris kept us informed at every stage, promptly addressing any concerns or questions that arose along the way. His professionalism and accessibility instilled a sense of confidence and peace of mind, making the entire experience remarkably smooth and stress-free. I wholeheartedly recommend Chris Houck to anyone in search of a top-tier real estate professional for purchasing land or any real estate endeavor. His expertise, integrity, and unwavering commitment to client satisfaction set him apart in the industry. With Chris by your side, you can trust that your real estate goals are in the best possible hands. Thank you, Chris Houck, for going above and beyond to help us secure the perfect piece of land for a future home. Your dedication and support have made this journey an unforgettable and immensely rewarding experience for our family.”
“Scott Elliott is a fantastic real estate agent. He recently sold our house in Mills River with us 900 miles away. In the process Scott did more than I've ever seen any real estate agent do, and I've been around the field for decades. He arranged plumbers, electricians, and cleaners. He made friends with the people in two Homeowners Associations and understood their complex rules. His marketing was excellent, and he managed a challenging negotiation. And, at the end of the day, he's a great guy and a wonderful person. I can't recommend Scott enough.”
“Great communication and timely return of calls. Very organized.”
“Bought two houses for Kim. We told her we didn't want a fixer upper and both houses needed work. ( things that were not pointed out) we didn't find out till after we moved in. Wish she would have not just pointed out the pros, but the cons as well.”
“Michelle is hard working and one for details when working with you to purchase a home. I came from out of state to purchase a home and had to do a lot of over the phone. From walking through virtually to writing up offers on homes, Michelle was patient and helpful throughout the whole process. Plus, she made sure (coming from out of state) I had all the information I needed to get electrical and water hooked up. It was a big help since things are different in NC. I could not have done this without her caring and PATIENCE for sure. Thank you Michelle!!”
“Jen is a fantastic realtor. She is so easy to work with, incredibly kind, and is such a strong advocate for her clients! She helped us sell our last house and purchase our current dream home.”
