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

Inventory in Southport has expanded on a rolling three‑month basis, with active listings up more than 20 percent year over year and new listings jumping about 30 percent. Even with more choices, homes are taking longer to sell, as median days on market climbed to 95 days, roughly a week slower than a year ago.

Pricing has stayed firm despite this looser backdrop, with the typical home value up about 18 percent compared with the same three‑month period last year. List prices are also slightly higher year over year, while the share of homes selling above list has dropped sharply and now accounts for only a small slice of sales, signaling less intense bidding pressure.

Contract activity shows a mixed picture, as homes sold in the latest three‑month window are down about 11 percent year over year, but pending sales have risen roughly 5 percent. Months of supply has more than doubled compared with last year to about five months, pointing to a market that still leans toward sellers but offers buyers more room to negotiate, and Agent Pronto can connect both buyers and sellers with an agent who understands these shifting dynamics.

“I’m grateful for Liz’s support throughout the purchase of my new home! I first connected with her on Instagram about a year ago, before I knew exactly when I would be ready to buy. She was patient and supportive of my timeline, stayed in touch, and worked with me from those initial conversations all the way through closing. Her responsiveness, calm demeanor, and encouragement meant a lot during a process that could feel overwhelming. I especially appreciated her willingness to step in, communicate with the builder, and help work through questions and concerns along the way. She has continued to be an excellent resource after closing, and I truly appreciate her ongoing support. Her check-ins helped me feel more at ease during a major life transition. Thank you, Liz, for the time, care, and effort you put into helping me make my new home a reality!”

“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.”

“Judy has been a long time friend and I knew for years she was a good agent, receiving many awards. I trusted her and she did not let me down. If I were still in the area, I would use her again if I needed an agent. Being out of the State, I can recommend her to friends that reside in her area. I apprexciate her very much.”

“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!”
