Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026 - Sep 2026).

Old North Durham currently leans toward sellers, with the market gauge at 35 and conditions labeled a seller's market. Months of supply sit at 4.6, matching the broader Durham market and suggesting more balance than in past years. Homes are taking a median of 39 days to go under contract, indicating buyers have some time to make decisions.

Looking at this rolling three-month period, prices have cooled slightly while listing activity has picked up. The typical home value is essentially flat year over year, while the median list price is up sharply over the same time last year, reflecting sellers aiming higher even as the sale side steadies. Inventory has grown, with active listings up compared with a year ago and new listings also trending higher, giving buyers more options than they had previously.

Demand has eased from last year, with homes sold down year over year and pending sales also trending lower, which helps explain the rising months of supply. Even so, nearly one in five recent sales closed above list price and the average sale-to-list ratio is just under 98 percent, showing that well-priced homes still attract strong offers. With properties neither flying off the market nor languishing for months, both buyers and sellers can benefit from working with an Agent Pronto–recommended real estate professional who knows how to navigate Old North Durham’s current dynamics.

“Best decision my wife and I made was to have this wonderful husband and wife team sell our house! We were previously with a different agent who we felt didn’t understand the tough townhome market in the area. We were wanting more guidance on the market, more pro-active communication from our relator, and knowledge on how to effectively price our home. We found ALL OF THIS with the Sold by Starkey Team! Within a few weeks of Kevin & Amanda becoming our new realtors we sold our home! The entire process was so smooth and we were kept informed on current market trends and the selling process the entire time. This team really shines with understanding the local market and providing constant communication! Real Estate is not a hobby for this team, they are true realtors! We highly recommend Sold by Starkey team - You won't be disappointed!”

“We met Carolyn in April when we decided we wanted to start the home buying process and sell our townhome. From the very beginning we had a really good feeling about her. She was very personable, kind hearted, and listened to our needs. We told her what we wanted and what we were willing to budge on as well. She took it all into consideration when providing suggestions and showing homes. We were amazed at the wealth of knowledge that she brought to the table when it came to builders, areas to consider, inspections, price points, etc. I could go on and on. She is a Jill of all trades! With her amazing negotiation skills our offer on the house we wanted was accepted out of several offers and we bought the perfect home. My favorite part of this process was seeing that the things we thought were impossible become possible. For instance when it came to selling our townhome, we were in an area and neighborhood where similar homes were sitting on the market for months. She made some suggestions, we followed through and received an offer in 11 DAYS!! That speaks volumes on her expertise. We couldn’t have asked for a better Realtor for this whole process. We are forever grateful for Carolyn and Nord Property Group.”

“Working with Joshua was one of the best decisions we made during our homebuying journey! As first-time homebuyers purchasing a home from across the country, we knew this would be a big step, but Joshua made the entire experience so much easier. From the very beginning, Joshua worked hard to help us secure the home we fell in love with. It wasn't an easy one to get, but he fought for us and made it happen. Even with us being out of state, he made sure everything was taken care of. Our closing process was far from typical, and we faced some unexpected challenges with our lender that caused delays and uncertainty. Throughout it all, Joshua handled everything professionally, stayed on top of every detail, and did everything he could to keep things moving forward. He truly went above and beyond, helping us feel less stressed during a very challenging time. We cannot recommend Joshua highly enough! If you're looking for a realtor who will genuinely fight for your best interests, go the extra mile, and stand by you no matter how challenging the process gets, Joshua is the one you want on your side. We would choose him again in a heartbeat!”

“We had an excellent experience buying with Farhan Khan coming from out of state. He communicated proactively with us throughout the process, made sure are we are well informed, was always helpful, and went the extra mile. He also offered valuable guidance when it came to negotiating and putting an offer. I would highly recommend him to anyone interested in buying or selling a home in the Greater Raleigh area.”

“We actually dealt with Coralie! She was extremely knowledgeable and guided us through the entire process of purchasing our property. Very responsive when we had a question and always answered quickly to be courteous of our time. I’ve never had someone response to me on weekends and from home as much as she did to make sure we were taken care of! Can’t say thank you enough for the great experience!”

“My husband and I had the pleasure of working with Kaitlin while purchasing our first home in Benson, North Carolina, and we truly couldn’t have asked for a better realtor. As first-time homebuyers, the process was new to us and, at times, a little stressful—especially when navigating some difficulties with the sellers. Throughout the entire process, Kaitlin went above and beyond to advocate for us and made sure that all of our questions, concerns, and needs were heard and addressed. Having Kaitlin by our side made the home-buying process feel 10 times easier. She was always attentive, responsive, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in making sure we felt comfortable with every decision along the way. It was clear that she wasn’t just focused on getting the transaction completed—she truly cared about making sure we were getting what we needed and the best deal possible. Her dedication to her clients really sets her apart, and we are so grateful to have had her guiding us through such an important milestone in our lives. I would highly recommend Kaitlin to anyone looking to buy a home in the Benson area or surrounding communities. We would absolutely work with her again in the future and couldn’t imagine having gone through this experience with anyone else!”

“Love! Love! Love! Chambrea!!!! She worked so hard on my rental property ventures and it paid off!!! We wanted to invest in our home-state of NC even though we live in California, and she was our eyes, ears, hands, and feet so that we could realize our dreams. Chambrea is highly intelligent and professional and will work until the job is done RIGHT!!! We have a few hiccups along the way but she walked us through every single hurdle, and we were able to close! I will be using Chambrea in the future as we look to expand our rental property ownership! HIGHLY recommended.”

“As first-time homebuyers, we feel very lucky that Bilt matched us with her. We had seen mixed reviews online about different eXp agents, so we weren’t sure what to expect, but she was fantastic from start to finish. She was patient, proactive, and always took the time to explain things, answer our questions, and give us honest advice. We were ready to accept the seller’s counteroffer, but without us even asking, she kept negotiating and came back a couple of hours later with an even lower price. That really showed us she was looking out for our best interests. She was also very responsive, even while out of the country on vacation. We had one small issue with an inspector she recommended, but she did everything she could to help get it resolved. Our parents were also involved in parts of the process and came away just as impressed. We’re very grateful we were matched with her and would absolutely recommend her.”

“Pete is an extremely knowledgeable, kind, flexible realtor. He was very helpful with suggesting repairs prior to listing our home. He talked us through each step, knowing the possible outcomes and preparing us for different scenarios. He was ahead of the game. We landed three offers within days of listing our home. Pete got us over asking price and a backup offer. I am so grateful that we worked with him. I would absolutely do so again in the future.”

“Absolutely Amazing! I just wanted to say THANK YOU to the best agent in the business! Tim patiently waited while we figured out exactly what we wanted to do. When we finally found the home we wanted, it wasn’t going to be easy—but HE MADE IT HAPPEN! He got it done ON TIME and UNDER BUDGET! 5 Stars just isn't enough- He runs his own firm, runs renovation jobs, and always makes time for his clients! I don't know how he does it all!! If you’re looking for an LOCALLY OWNERED FIRM and an owner/agent who will be patient, persistent, and truly go to bat for you, Atlas Central NC Realty/w owner Tim Supples is your guy!”

“Brett and Caitlin helped us find the perfect house and sell our house quickly. We were looking for something very specific. Even when we got discouraged by what was available, Brett and Caitlin kept researching and found a great place for us. When it was time to sell, they went above and beyond with staging and photos and were able to sell our house quickly.”

“Pat's expertise won us the house we dreamed of - we got exactly what we needed, and a rare find! Believe me, we had a *long* list of wants, and it took a *long* time for the right place (that was in our budget!) to land on the market. I had every confidence that Pat would only let us make an offer on a solid investment - she has her client's best interest truly at heart. When the dream property showed up on the market, Pat happened to be away on an epic adventure - but, with true devotion to us as her clients, she found a spot on the mountain and used her last bit of phone battery where she could get a little signal just to keep the ball rolling! Pat's sub got us in to see the house right away, and was so friendly and easy to work with - and as soon as Pat was back in town she took back over and guided us through negotiations that got a bit complex after the inspection, and worked hard to negotiate a good deal with a great outcome. I'm not someone who feels confident about negotiations, so we just trusted Pat and knew she would take good care of us, and she did! We are forever grateful; home-buying can be such an emotionally draining experience, but Pat's calm and steady confidence kept us grounded. I would recommend her to anyone!”

“We have known Giri for years, so we already knew he was someone we could trust — but working with him as our real estate agent exceeded our expectations. He gave us thoughtful advice that opened our eyes to options we hadn't even considered, and backed it up with data and financial modeling that helped us make confident decisions. He was always quick to respond, patient with our questions, and his connections with mortgage brokers and property managers made the entire process feel seamless. We couldn't have asked for a better guide through the journey, and we'd recommend him without hesitation.”

“Nicole was exceptional throughout the entire home-buying process. She worked with me for months, never rushing or pressuring me, and stayed committed to helping me find the right home. From the very beginning, she took the time to truly listen to what I wanted, understand my priorities, and respect my nonnegotiables. Every home she showed me reflected the preferences we had discussed, which made the search feel personalized and productive. Nicole was patient, knowledgeable, and always available to answer my questions or offer honest advice. She made what could have been a stressful process feel much more manageable by keeping me informed every step of the way. When we finally found the perfect home, I knew it was because of her dedication, persistence, and genuine commitment to helping me find not just any house, but the right one for me. I would highly recommend Nicole to anyone looking for a realtor who truly puts their clients first.”
