“Katerina was an awesome realtor. She was always available for me, even when I called at some pretty odd hours because of the time difference. She truly listens, gives excellent advice, and made the entire process so much easier for me. One thing I’ll always remember is how she would ask, “Do you have any more questions?” several times before ending every call with me, lol. I would say no and then somehow come up with another question, and she was always so patient and willing to answer. Buying a home while being out of the country can be stressful, but Katerina was extremely helpful throughout the entire process. She always kept me informed, made sure I understood what was happening, and was there whenever I needed her. I’m so grateful I had the opportunity to work with her, and I would absolutely recommend Katerina to anyone I know who is looking to buy a home in North Carolina”

Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jun 2026 - Aug 2026).
Cornelius currently leans toward sellers, with the market gauge signaling a seller’s market even as conditions ease compared with prior years. Months of supply has climbed to 4.3 in this rolling three‑month view, up more than 40 percent year over year, indicating buyers have noticeably more options than they did last year.
Price trends show a mixed picture, with typical home values up nearly 20 percent year over year while the median list price is down about 9 percent. This gap suggests that closed sales are still reflecting strong values even as sellers adjust asking prices, and only about 9 percent of homes are selling above list compared with a much higher share two years ago.
On the activity side, inventory has grown, with active listings up around 24 percent from a year ago, and homes sold have increased about 15 percent, yet pending sales have slipped almost 9 percent year over year. Homes are taking longer to sell, with median days on market at 61, up from last year, underscoring a more deliberate pace for both sides of the table. Buyers and sellers who want to navigate these shifting dynamics can lean on Agent Pronto to connect with a local Cornelius agent who understands the data and the best strategies for each side.

“Nichole is a true professional. Her knowledge of current markets and local neighborhoods is outstanding and allowed us to receive a maximum return. Nichole was continually responsive to us and answered all questions along the way with not only her recommendations but also alternative paths that could be taken during the sale of our home. We could not have asked for a better experience and so glad Nichole is our realtor!”

“Words cannot express the gratitude and appreciation for Jacqueline! Jacqueline sold my first home and several years later she helped my future husband and I find our home to raise a family. She is patient, knowledgeable, professional and above all shows compassion to her clients. I consider her my friend.”

Mitzy is reliable, knowledgeable, friendly and supportive every step of the way. She was always quick to respond, even to our silly questions, and made an intimidating thing seem so much easier! We couldn't have done this without her. We recomend Mitzy to everybody!”

“Jody was truly exceptional in every way! He was extremely responsive and resourceful. He was always providing very relevant and useful information. He is an excellent listener.

He communicated clearly, stayed on top of every detail, and helped make a complicated situation move smoothly to closing. I truly appreciated his guidance and would definitely recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell 10/10 times!”
“We can't speak highly enough of Jill. We met her when we were in the very early stages of exploring NC before we even knew if we were serious about moving. We walked into her open house and she was so sweet and knowledgeable about the area. We kept in contact for several months and then my husband ended up getting a job in Charlotte. We were looking for houses while still living in CA which has an added level of stress, but she made everything so easy. She's not pushy but gives her opinion and it's so easy to see that she wants you to be in best house for you. This was also our first time buying a house and she made me a feel so comfortable with the whole process. We loved working with her and highly, highly recommend her!”
“Lin was absolutely amazing!! I've sold several properties with other agents, and sold the last two with Lin. I can only say that I wish I'd found her sooner! I live out of state and she made the process seamless. She took on these listings (each with its own issues) and she sold both properties at (and above) asking price. She is incredibly knowledgeable, communicative, and very pleasant to work with! I strongly recommend working with Lin, have already recommended her to family, and will definitely list with her again. Thank you so much, Lin!!”
“The Finigan Group / eXp Realty delivered an outstanding experience from start to finish! We had the pleasure of working with Josh, and he was truly exceptional. He stepped in with confidence, set the right strategy, priced our home perfectly, and had it sold in just one month. His expertise, clear communication, and steady guidance made the entire process feel seamless and stress free. Josh took care of every detail and kept us informed at every step. We always felt supported and knew we were in great hands. If you are looking for a knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely dedicated realtor, The Finigan Group is the team you want in your corner. We could not be happier with the results.”

“Chanda Green is a remarkable realtor who went above and beyond to help me sell my fathers house in Matthews NC. With me living in Massachusetts, it was very difficult at times, and Chanda did whatever she could to help me so I could be here with my family in MA. I whole heartedly recommend Chanda as she is a class act of what a true professional and intelligent realtor is. Thank you again Chanda for helping me through this whole process. I will be forever grateful for the outstanding service that you provided me.”

“Our agent, Michael Diniz, was professional and extremely knowledgeable. Simply put, he's the best agent we've worked with. Selling our home had its challenges, but his persistence and urgency allowed our home to sell sooner than expected. I've used a few agents in the past, however, Michael is the only agent I'd refer to friends and family.”
“Josh was a pleasure to work with. He is very knowledgeable in his field and always available. I would consider him a good friend at this point!”
“Loved working with Judi, who is very personable and has good attention to detail. I learned so much about this kind of transaction (sale of bare property) from dealing with Judi.”
