Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Knox County real estate market. *
September 2026
Monthly data for the latest available year.
Monthly supply and activity totals for the latest available year.
Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Sep 2026).
Inventory and contract activity in Knox County have been shifting recently, with about 3,151 active listings and 801 new listings in September, as new listings ticked up more than 5 percent year over year. Pending sales have pulled back almost one-fifth from last month and are slightly below last year, even as closed sales edged about 2 percent higher.
Pricing is adjusting to this flow, as the typical home value sits around $404,530 and is down modestly from both last month and a year ago. List prices are under similar pressure, slipping nearly 4 percent year over year, and the share of homes selling above list has eased a bit month to month, even though it is slightly higher than a year ago.
Conditions still tilt toward sellers, with about 3.5 months of supply compared with roughly 5.3 months across Tennessee and a median time on market of 54 days that is shorter than a year ago. With an average sale-to-list ratio just over 98 percent, many sellers are still achieving prices close to asking, while buyers are seeing a bit more negotiating room than earlier in the year. Buyers and sellers who want to navigate these evolving trends in Knox County can turn to Agent Pronto to connect with a local real estate agent who understands this market.
Knox County offers residents a welcoming, dynamic community with strong schools, abundant outdoor recreation, a thriving arts and culture scene, diverse dining, and reliable local services and opportunities.
Knox County anchors a major metro area with a strong university presence, a busy airport, and quick access to both city conveniences and outdoor recreation. Centered on Knoxville, the county stretches from walkable historic districts to newer suburban neighborhoods, giving residents a wide range of housing styles and price points.
Daily life is shaped by easy connectivity. McGhee Tyson Airport and I 40 put regional and national travel within reach, while greenways connect neighborhoods to destinations like World’s Fair Park and Ijams Nature Center. Families often focus on proximity to schools, from Knox County Schools’ zoned campuses to options near the University of Tennessee Knoxville and downtown cultural spots such as the East Tennessee History Center.
Entertainment and dining cluster around Market Square, Old City, and growing corridors in Farragut and Powell, while parks and waterfront access along the Tennessee River appeal to buyers who value time outside. Commute patterns can vary significantly between neighborhoods like Bearden and Halls Crossroads, so choosing the right area has a direct impact on daily routine and budget.

“If the rating was highest of 10, I would give Katelyn a 20 in all aspects. She was on top of EVERYTHING at all times. She is a sweetheart and so personable with us. I absolutely loved her, she made our experience wonderful.”
“Elle did such a wonderful job helping us purchase our new home! She always communicated quickly with us throughout the whole process, she is very friendly and relatable, she has a lot of connections, and was able to find answers to our questions with ease each time!”
“We bought and sold property with Victoria. She's great to work with, very responsive and very knowledgeable. Enjoyed working with her and her team was also excellent. Highly recommend!”
“Chena Morris is an excellent realtor. But if you've read the other reviews, you already know that. So rather than repeat what everyone else has said, I'll share a little about my experience. First, I should probably mention that I'm a Type A personality. I know what I want, I ask a lot of questions, I like things done efficiently, and I fully recognize that I'm not always the easiest person to deal with. Chena handled me wonderfully! She quickly figured out how I operate and seemed to know when to lead, when to listen, when to offer her opinion, and when to just let me do my thing. I really appreciated that. One of my favorite moments happened while planning a day of house hunting. I was only in town for a limited time and had quite a few houses I wanted to see. Chena mentioned that we'd need to move fast to fit them all in. I confidently replied, "No problem!" To which she responded, "What's YOUR version of fast?" I had to laugh. That one question told me she was listening, was up for the challenge, but also wanted to make sure we were on the same page about what we were getting ourselves into. Fair enough! And off we went. We saw A LOT of houses, and not once did she make me feel like I was asking too much. She listened to my thoughts, shared her own, and never tried to push me toward something that wasn't right for me. We worked really well together, and ultimately, I found a home I absolutely love. I also have to mention her team. Desire was fantastic and didn't miss a beat while Chena was on vacation. Although, I'm not entirely convinced Chena knows how to take a vacation because she didn't miss a beat either! But where Chena really shines is getting things done. I flew into town for the final walkthrough and signing, only to arrive at the house and discover the sellers were still moving out. Not exactly what I had envisioned for closing day! While I was standing there wondering what this meant and what we were supposed to do next, Chena was already on the phone with the seller's realtor making sure I would be protected since the signing was going to take place before the sellers had completely moved out. And when the delayed moveout meant the house needed cleaning, Chena had a cleaning crew there within hours. She doesn't mess around! I think that's what impressed me most about Chena. Showing houses is one thing, but knowing how to handle the unexpected and actually getting things done is another. I never felt like I had to chase her down or wonder if something was being taken care of. She was usually already on it before I even thought to ask. I could end this by saying I highly recommend Chena, but that just doesn't seem like enough. So, since I'm a pretty straight to the point kind of person, here's my advice: Quit reading all the reviews and call her. Ask your questions, have your conversation, and then hire her. No need to interview anyone else. She's the ONE! And trust me, coming from someone who likes to explore every possible option before making a decision, that's saying something!”
“Ricky was great to work with, very personable and fun to get along with. He did a good job for us snd we will use his expertise again.. He did the work find out the details, the HOA’s, utilities for us, and he was a great communicator.”
“Tracey was absolutely wonderful to work with throughout the home-buying process! She was helpful, knowledgeable, responsive, and truly had my best interests at heart. She made a stressful process feel so much easier and was there to answer questions and guide me every step of the way. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy a home. If you’re looking for a realtor who genuinely cares about her clients and goes above and beyond, she's the one!”
“When my husband and I were beginning our house hunting journey, we just knew we would get stuck with a stereotypical real-estate agent. I'm here to say Joshua is definitely not that! I'd say far from it, in the best way possible! Joshua is real and down to earth. He is not here to sale you a house. He's here to guide you to your future home. His background in home inspection is asset to both him and you. While you aww and ahh over a potential house, he's walking it over. Maybe even getting on the roof, lol. He's going to give you the real facts about the house and will tell you up front about potential problems with the property. We didn't have the biggest budget and our experience had some bumps in the road, but Joshua was always there making us feel like a priority and found solutions to our bumps. FYI, none of the bumps had anything to do with him. We truly felt blessed to have him in our corner! We are beyond thankful for everything he did to get us in our home!”
“Working with Dalton was a wonderful experience. He is a friend and sometimes it can feel more stressful to do business with a friend, but in our case he exceeded our already high expectations! He is a local and has a really important knowledge base of Nashville and the surrounding suburbs. He and his colleagues were very clear and communicative throughout the home selling process. We were not living in our home but we have very difficult work schedules and Dalton made sure we were never inconvenienced. We were under contract in 3 days and closed with no delays or hiccups. We even had a vacation while under contract and didn’t have to worry about a thing! Having a team that can get a deal to the finish line in a market like this is amazing. Dalton and his team can do that for you!”
“I highly recommend Khristy Cooper for anyone looking to buy real estate in the Smoky Mountains of Tennessee! Khristy was a tremendous help throughout the entire process of purchasing my Airbnb investment property. Her knowledge of the local market, professionalism, responsiveness, and attention to detail made the experience much smoother and less stressful. She was there to answer my questions, provide guidance, and help me navigate the process with confidence. Purchasing an investment property can be overwhelming, but Khristy made me feel supported every step of the way. If you’re looking to purchase a home, vacation property, or Airbnb investment in the Tennessee Smoky Mountains, I would absolutely recommend working with Khristy Cooper. She truly cares about her clients and goes the extra mile to make the buying experience a positive one. Thank you, Khristy, for all your help in making my Smoky Mountain Airbnb purchase a reality!”
“Jonathan was very helpful, and pleasant. Jonathan sent me many interesting homes in the price range decided upon, in the selected geographic area. We didn't negotiate the home price, I accepted asking price, with the home as is. I would highly recommend Jonathan to help you search for your home to buy.”
“PG is by far the best Real Estate agent I have ever had. Not only did he help me find the perfect home, but he helped me through the process of my previous residence. He was able to answer every single question that I had, he responded to me in a timely manner, and he was able to save me quite a bit of money with his negotiation skills. I also have kids and he made it especially fun and easy for them. As far as I am concerned, PG is my Real Estate agent for life.”
“Mark helped me turn the next chapter of my life into a reality. I wanted to put my personal home on the market so I could move forward and purchase my dream home, but after working with three different agents over two years, I had experienced plenty of false promises and very little communication. Then I met Mark. He was straightforward, honest, and gave me practical advice about what needed to change. He helped me position my home properly, and the difference was immediate. My home started getting showings, and before I knew it, we were under contract and SOLD! Mark didn’t just help me sell my home — he helped me take the next step toward the home I had always dreamed of owning. I highly recommend Mark to anyone looking for a professional, communicative, and results-focused real estate agent. Thank you, Mark, for helping make it happen!”
“Brandy is awesome, best agent I've ever dealt with, honest and trustworthy. She will go out of your way to help you identify potential problems with properties, as well as point out great features of properties you might not be aware of. She is punctual and is very friendly.”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better real estate agent! She was incredibly patient and supportive throughout the entire process and was always there when I had a question, needed an update, or just needed a little reassurance. Communication was excellent from beginning to end, and she truly went above and beyond to help keep everything moving and make the closing process as smooth as possible. Buying a home can definitely be stressful, but having someone who genuinely cared and was willing to put in the extra effort made such a difference. I’m so thankful for everything she did for me and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!”
“We've been looking for an investment cabin in the Smokies and reached out to Tiffany Mills at Jet Real Estate after talking with a few other agents. She stood out right away because she understood the vacation rental market, not just real estate in general. She talked with us about different areas, rental potential, and what to watch out for when buying a cabin. Tiffany has been great to work with and has never made us feel pressured. It's nice having someone who actually understands the market and wants to help you make a smart investment instead of just selling you a house. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a cabin in the area.”
“Wafa was with me every step of the way. Clear and concise communication was such a calming factor in the whole process. I was never left wondering or needing to know what to do next. She was right there with me to make sure I was comfortable with the process. I will absolutely be recommending her to anyone I know who is buying/selling a home. Could not have asked for a better person to help me through this major step in my life.”
“Blake Rickels helped my wife and me purchase our home in the Old Washington Pike area of Knoxville, Tennessee. We were purchasing from out of town, and Blake made the entire process much easier by staying responsive, explaining every step, and handling details that we could not manage in person. He guided us through the offer, inspection, roofing issues, financing, and closing, and he continued helping us even after the sale was completed. Blake has extensive knowledge of the Knoxville real estate market and genuinely looks out for his clients. We would highly recommend Blake Rickels and Blake Rickels Group, Century 21 Legacy to anyone buying a home or relocating to the Knoxville area.”
“When we met Angela for the first time, we were impressed by her Professionalism and Local Knowledge! We knew we had found OUR Realtor! She led our search from Hixon to Red Bank and Harrison to Ooltewah and East Brainerd. We covered a lot of ground and saw dozens of homes. We had not purchased a home in over 30 years, so we had a lot of questions. Angela had all the answers. It was a blessing to find her, and we highly recommend her! Stellar!”
“My husband is retiring from the military, and we were looking to make Chattanooga our new home! As a fellow military spouse, Rachel understands all of the ins and outs of a military move/PCS, and all of the weird timelines that entails! She was so flexible and very patient with explaining the home-buying process, as we are first-time buyers as well. After finding our dream house, Rachel and our team were able to help us close in two weeks from putting an offer in! It was amazing! If you are in the market for a new home, pick Rachel! You won't regret it!”
“We had an outstanding experience working with our Amber! She guided us through both the sale of our home and the purchase of our new one with professionalism, knowledge, and genuine care. She was always available to answer questions, kept us informed every step of the way, and made what could have been a stressful process feel smooth and manageable. Her attention to detail, dedication, and commitment to our best interests were evident from start to finish. We always felt like a priority, and her expertise gave us confidence in every decision we made. We are incredibly grateful for everything she did to help our family through this exciting transition. We highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. She truly goes above and beyond!”
