Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jun 2026 - Aug 2026).
Year-over-year, Castle Hayne’s rolling three-month data shows mixed price signals, with the typical home value down sharply even as the median list price sits more than a quarter higher than a year ago. At the same time, inventory has grown, with active listings up notably from last year and months of supply soaring, pointing to more options and slower upward pressure on prices.
In the latest rolling three-month period ending in August 2026, the typical home value is about $456,700, while the median list price is around $404,900. Homes are taking much longer to sell than a year ago, with median days on market rising to roughly 102 days even as months of supply has eased from earlier this year to about 6.4 months.
Looking at activity, only two homes sold in this recent period and none closed above asking, yet pending sales have inched up compared with last year. With just seven active listings and four new listings coming on the market, both buyers and sellers can benefit from an Agent Pronto–recommended agent who understands these shifting conditions and can guide them through pricing, timing, and negotiations.

“After 2 previous agents, contracts with multiple developers, many years tied up with those contracts and nothing to show for it, we contracted with Jeff Lesley. He worked with the developer and negotiated nonrefundable funds when they wanted multiple extensions. Those funds increased as they needed more time. Finally, we closed last week. Thank you Jeff for your persistence and professionalism.”
“Exceptional Realtor and Advocate We could not have asked for a better realtor to help us purchase our new home and sell our townhome. From the very beginning, she was incredibly responsive, attentive, and always available to support us throughout the entire process. She did an outstanding job representing us and was truly our advocate every step of the way. She listened to what was important to us, provided thoughtful guidance, and made sure our interests were always well represented. Her professionalism, knowledge, and commitment gave us tremendous confidence during what can be a very stressful process. We always felt that we had someone in our corner who genuinely cared about helping us find the right home and making the experience as smooth as possible. We are so grateful for everything she did and would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy a home.”

“Terri i Parrish is no longer my Realtor....she is my friend! She "held my hand" through a difficult process for me as I am older and not as strong as I have been. She brought me coffee on the days the gas had been stopped and not restarted. She helped me move my belongings to storage! She returned every one of my frantic calls and soothed my concerns. She made sure every i was dotted and t crossed on every document. I must say that if one needs compassion in a Realtor and skills to sell, call Terri. I have one more to sell and she will be the listing agent!”
