Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026 - Sep 2026).
Year over year, West Salem’s rolling three-month data shows striking price growth. The typical home value is up nearly 40 percent from last year, far outpacing the roughly 3 percent gain seen across Winston-Salem overall. At the same time, median list prices have dropped significantly from a year ago, suggesting sellers may be pricing more conservatively even as closed-sale values climb.
In the latest rolling three-month period ending in September 2026, inventory looks very different from a year earlier. Active listings are about 51 percent higher than last year, and months of supply has surged from a tight 1.5 months to a buyer-leaning 17.7 months, compared with 4.2 months for Winston-Salem as a whole.
Sales activity has cooled sharply on a yearly basis, with homes sold down about 59 percent and pending sales off nearly 40 percent, which can give buyers more time to decide. Yet almost half of recent sales still closed above list price and the average sale-to-list ratio sits just over 102 percent, indicating well-priced homes can still attract strong offers. Median days on market have lengthened to 51 days in this rolling period, up from 26 days a year ago, so sellers may need to plan for longer timelines. Both buyers and sellers in West Salem can benefit from an Agent Pronto–recommended agent who understands these shifting conditions.

“Aaron was such a pleasure to work with! I know we were some of the pickiest people he's probably ever had to work with, but he never made us feel like it. We were never rushed or made to feel odd about asking so many questions about things we didn't understand, and Aaron took his time making us feel very safe and comfortable in this huge decision! His kindness and compassion really went a long way, 10 stars!!”

“We had an excellent experience working with Renea as our buyer’s agent. She is knowledgeable, responsive, patient, and genuinely cared about our family’s unique accessibility needs. Because our home was new construction, she served as our liaison with the listing agent and builder regarding construction changes. Whenever we had a question or concern, she promptly reached out to get an answer or resolve the issue. Renea also suggested a wonderful way to improve accessibility in one area of our home. We incorporated her idea, and it has made a tremendous difference in our daily lives. Even after closing, she checked in with us several times to make sure everything was going smoothly in our new home. We have worked with many good agents over the years, but Renea truly stands out above the rest. Again, she is the total package—knowledgeable, tenacious, responsive, and, most importantly, a genuinely caring person who wants the very best for her clients. We wholeheartedly recommend Renea, and if we ever need an agent again, she will be the first person we call!”

“Working with Lane was an absolute dream from start to finish! As young, first time home buyers, the entire process could easily have felt overwhelming, but Lane made sure it never did. Her communication was incredible, she responded to anything I asked or needed around the clock, proactive, and genuinely cared about us. She spent hours walking us through every single detail, explaining all the terminology and steps so we truly understood what everything meant not just for the purchase, but as future homeowners. Lane was there for us every step of the way, made sure we felt valued and confident, and consistently went above and beyond. We couldn't have asked for a better agent and recommend her to anyone!! The absolute BEST!!”

“Michael Storm was our buyers agent , I can not say enough good things about him. We have worked with other agents in the past , but I will say, he is the best we have ever worked with. He went way above and beyond any we have dealt with. We had a difficult purchase process but he stayed so patient, persistent, positive, and even had me laughing,when I felt like crying. We never would have made it through the situation without his support. Not only was he our agent but he became a friend. We will never work with any other agent, and recommend him to everyone we know. If you work with him, I can promise you will be glad you did!!”

If you want experience in your corner and a strong negotiator down the stretch, then she's the agent you need to call.”

“I met Kristin years ago when we became neighbors. Our kids played together. She’s great. I sold my house, moved, and found my self in the position of wanting to own a house again. Before working with Kristin, I did not think it was possible to buy again. She connected me to an awesome loan officer, I got pre approved, and I began to look at houses with Kristin. She sent me the perfect place for my growing family. We toured it and with her help I put in a good offer. Kristin is absolutely great; she communicates, she cares, and she loves what she does. I was able to close on my home in about 2 months. She went above and beyond to make sure all my electrical was grounded and safe in my beautiful older home. Very grateful for Kristin.”

“I had the absolute pleasure of working with Shaunna Overman as my realtor, and I couldn’t be more grateful for the experience. Moving to North Carolina from the Midwest felt overwhelming at first, but Shaunna made the entire process smooth, stress-free, and genuinely enjoyable. From day one, Shaunna was incredibly responsive—no matter the question or time of day, she always got back to me quickly with helpful, clear information. Her professionalism, deep knowledge of the local market, and thoughtful guidance made every step easier. I consistently felt supported and well-informed. Beyond her expertise, Shaunna’s pleasant personality and warm, steady presence made her truly wonderful to work with. She listened closely to what I needed, anticipated concerns I hadn’t even thought of, and always made me feel like finding the right home was her top priority. Thanks to Shaunna, I found the perfect home here in North Carolina, and the transition felt far less daunting than I expected. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a realtor who is dedicated, knowledgeable, and an absolute joy to work with. On a personal note, I’m deeply grateful for how she turned what could have been a stressful move into an exciting new chapter. Her kindness and support meant more than she probably realizes.”

“Best Realtor Experience in Greensboro with Ashley Meredith Selling my home in the Lindhurst neighborhood of Greensboro, NC was a challenge until I connected with Ashley Meredith. After months of disappointment with other agents, Ashley stepped in and quickly delivered results. What had dragged on for half a year was resolved in just weeks thanks to her expertise, professionalism, and relentless dedication. Ashley’s knowledge of the Greensboro market was evident from the start. She developed a clear strategy, showcased my property in the best possible light, and made sure every detail was handled with precision. She didn’t simply list my home—she positioned it to sell. With her guidance and the support of her team, the entire process felt smooth and well-managed. Her communication was outstanding. Ashley kept me updated regularly, explained what was working, and adjusted the plan when needed. I always felt confident that progress was being made. That level of transparency and proactivity is rare, and it set her apart from the other agents I had worked with. I only wish I had chosen Ashley sooner. She is a top realtor in every sense—resourceful, professional, and results-driven. If you want your home sold in Greensboro, Ashley Meredith is the best choice.”

“Straton was everything a homeowner could ask for in an agent. His knowledge of local markets and strategies is outstanding. Straton guided me through the process of selling my home, from start to finish. He often went out of his way to ensure that I had what I needed to prepare my house for sale, even physically participating in some simple repairs. He was always quick to respond to my questions and concerns. His negotiating skills with buyer's agents were brilliant and instrumental in obtaining my original asking price for my home. His honesty, easy manner, and genuine concern for the interest of his clients sets him apart from his peers. I would surmise that he is a credit to his agency and his profession.”
