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

Inventory in Locust has expanded in the latest rolling three-month period, with active listings up sharply from a year ago while new listings have risen more modestly. Homes sold and pending sales are both higher year over year, indicating more buyers are successfully getting under contract even as choices grow. At the same time, months of supply has increased compared with last year, signaling a shift toward better balance between buyers and sellers.

Pricing has adjusted slightly as conditions change. The typical home value is down a bit from a year ago, even though the median list price has inched up, suggesting some sellers are testing higher asking prices while closed sales are softer. Homes are taking longer to sell than they did a year ago, with median days on market climbing, which often reflects buyers having more time to compare options.

Despite slower timelines, most homes are still selling very close to asking price, and a noticeable share are closing above list, showing that well-priced and well-presented properties can still draw strong interest. Only about one in five homes goes under contract within two weeks, pointing to a more deliberate pace for both sides. Whether you are a buyer navigating more inventory or a seller working to stand out, Agent Pronto can connect you with a Locust agent who understands these trends and can guide you through the process.

“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”

“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!!”

“It was an absolute pleasure working with Joshua Kelly and the entire Steadfast team. They were very patient, prompt, attentive, knowledgeable and responsive, especially considering my move entailed an out-of-state component to it. I would absolutely recommend them for future homebuyers.”

“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.”
