“The Starkeys are true professionals with deep expertise in real estate transactions, and it’s clear they genuinely care about their clients. From the start, they set clear expectations for every aspect of selling our home and consistently followed up to keep everything on track. Amanda and Kevin work seamlessly as a team. Amanda provided invaluable guidance on staging, helping our home look its absolute best, while Kevin expertly led us through evaluating offers and negotiating terms. We felt aligned with his strategy throughout, including how to handle offers and inspection requests. Their approach delivered excellent results—we received multiple offers within just two days and ultimately sold to a wonderful couple, which meant a lot to us given how much pride we took in our home. I would highly recommend the Starkeys and would happily work with them again in the future.”

Wade real estate Market Report.
Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Wade real estate market, updated for April 2026. *
Wade’s housing market is seeing a steady flow of homes and buyers. There are 41 homes on the market, with 60 new listings and 37 going under contract recently. Compared with last year, new listings are up about 9 percent and pending sales have inched higher by nearly 3 percent, signaling active buyer interest.
Homes are taking longer to sell than they did a year ago, with the median time on market at 61 days, up more than 67 percent annually, though that timing has shortened by about 10 percent just since last month. Wade is still tilted toward sellers overall, reflected in its seller’s market gauge of 11, even as buyers gain a bit more breathing room.
Prices in Wade sit well above the broader Raleigh area, with a typical home value of $980,000 compared to $420,000 in the city overall. Values in the neighborhood have slipped about 21 percent year over year and 12 percent month over month, yet the median list price has risen to about $1,134,750, up nearly 14 percent from last month, and roughly 24 percent of recent sales closed above asking with an average sale-to-list ratio of about 0.99. Looking ahead to April 2026, typical values are projected around $912,500 with a projected median list price near $1,202,625 and inventory holding at 41, so both buyers and sellers can benefit from letting Agent Pronto connect them with a skilled local agent to navigate these shifts.
Market gauge is calculated based on the the number of active listings divided by home sales over the most recently available reporting period.

Pointed out possible issues with houses we were looking at, constantly took us step-by-step on what the next steps would be for the purchase, and worked hard around the clock.

We received a very reasonable offer on our home in less than 30 days and ultimately ended up closing on our home with that offer. This is compared to other homes in our neighborhood that have sat for 40-150 days on the market.
