“Leslie was diligent in the sale of our property even in a down economy. She was always accessible and persistent in selling and negotiating the purchase of our new home.”
“We had an outstanding experience with Mike Harrison and Tara Harrison when selling our home in North Texas. They were excellent at proactively communicating, providing weekly updates on our listing, offer strategy and advice along the way, and generated over 300,000 views of our home from their social media plan. By far the best experience I have ever had in selling a home. I would highly recommend.”
“Brandee and her team were responsive in all respects. I appreciate all she did for us.”
“Cynthia is an incredible and professional realtor with immense knowledge. I had never sold a home before, and the entire process was daunting for me. Upon first meeting, she created a sincere and understanding environment. Cynthia helped me throughout the entire process of selling my home, giving insights and the best strategy to move through the process in an organized and thoughtful way. Her presentation, staging, attention to detail, and efficiency were so important to me in making the best decisions at each stage of selling my home. Cynthia was not only attentive but took the time to listen to my thoughts. I'm thankful that I found Cynthia Del Rio; the home has sold, and I couldn't have done it without her dedication and professionalism.”
“Tyon is an outstanding realtor and grateful and thankful that we got to work with him. I've been trying to sell my home for almost 2 years before working with him and out of the realtors that I've had, he did the most for us. He is all about his clients and makes sure to have their best interests at heart. He helped us with any repairs that could be done at the house so there wasn't any extra expense on our end, plus he ripped out the carpet for us so we could get it replaced. For things he couldn't do himself, we was always trying to find the least expensive solution for it. He was very knowledgeable in his field and I couldn't have asked for a better person to help us get our house sold!”
“Malyssa was wonderful and on top of every phase of the process. On the market an hour and a half and got over asking price.”
“Myra is amazing and wonderful to work with”
“Tami Davis is an excellent realtor. She helped my daughter and son-in-law find the right home, & they referred her to me. I refer her to anyone I know who is looking to buy a home, & I will use her again when I need a realtor.”
“Donnell went beyond expectations. She checked on my property to make sure things were in order. Her husband even helped to fix things on the property. She advised me to take certain actions to bring more views to my property. I am so appreciative for all of her help.”
“Jennifer was professional, knowledgeable, and always responded to questions quickly. She attended most showings to ensure the property was secured after the showing. This was important because I moved out of state. Overall a good experience.”
“Lynlea was very knowledgeable, accommodating, always accessible and totally recognized what an important process this was for me. She was respectful and addressed my concerns in a professional manner. I plan to ask for her guidance and support again soon to sell my previous home. I would definitely recommend her to my friends and family.”
“As first-time home buyers, Andrey made sure we were well taken care of. He was very informative and communicative through every step of the way and continues to be. We will definitely use Andrey in our journeys to come! Highly recommend.”
“Tammy went the extra mile. An offer had been made on a house we were very interested in and Tammy requested a back-up offer option. That offer was accepted, the previous offer fell through and we now own the property. Had she not taken that extra step, we may not have known about the situation with the first offer.”
“I have known Cindy for some time. I had no hesitation in selecting Cindy for our home search. I knew she would put forth her greatest effort and we were not disappointed and greatly pleased with the hard work and commitment she presented in the search for our new home. Cindy did a great job!”
“Via your referral, I had a business relationship with Ginny for about 6 months until my land was sold last week. I am really satisfied with her professional service.”
“Already stated”
“Agent Pronto had me in touch with two different agents the day I signed up with them. One of the agents, Neil Clements, was aggressive in his approach which we loved, and we were in contact with him the next day. The overall experience was extremely professional, fast, and pleasant. I highly recommend!”
“Cherri was an amazing expert about everything we needed and ask. Her keen eye for real estate and all thing related made me feel at ease. She was patience and very professional. Cherri was very trusting and I felt confident when she advised me on certain things. Of course it was my decision in the end put I had full confidence that she had my best interest at heart.”
“Debby was great and helped us get a great house. Professional, polite and easy to work with.”
“Laurie Wallace is very knowledable and easy to work with. She made buying our first home a breeze and did a good job keeping us informed on each step of the home buying journey.”
Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Athens real estate market, updated for August 2025. *
The typical home value in Athens is projected to be $219,880 for the month of August. July’s finalized data reported the typical value of a home in the city to be $254,000—up 2.83% over the previous 12 months. For comparison, county-level data pegged home values at $285,000 in Henderson County for the most recent reporting period. That number is expected to float around $287,500 in August.
Athens had 10 new listings and 15 listings that went under contract in July, decreasing the area’s total available inventory to 44—down 24.14% from the previous month. Inventory is projected to have further decreased in August.
Of those 44 active listings, 34.09% reduced their price in the month of July. The median listing price for homes in Athens grew 41.35% from June to July, bringing the current median listing price to $367,500. Based on projected data for August, listing prices may continue to grow.
The number of days that homes have been on the market prior to going under contract rose year-over-year. In July 2025, the median time for a listed property to go pending was 57 days, compared to 50 days in July 2024. In recent months the median number of days from listed to pending appears to be increasing. That trend is predicted to have carried through to this August.
Market gauge is calculated based on the the number of active listings divided by home sales over the most recently available reporting period.
Athens offers its residents a charming blend of small-town hospitality, vibrant community events, and access to outdoor recreational activities that foster a warm and inviting lifestyle.
