“Working with David was such a positive experience. He listened to what I wanted, was quick to respond, and guided me through every step. I felt supported the whole way and really appreciated how patient and approachable he was. I can not recommend him enough. You can't go wrong with having David help you find the perfect home for you and your family!”
“Brandee and her team were responsive in all respects. I appreciate all she did for us.”
“He was such a great 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.”
“I contacted them to help me find a realtor to sell my parents' home. Agent Pronto referred me to Larry Chapman of Drake Chapman Realty. What I thought was going to be a difficult drawn out process was exactly the opposite. Teresa and Larry were so kind and helpful! They answered all of our questions and made the process pain free! I highly recommend Drake Chapman Realty and would absolutely use Agent Pronto again.”
“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.”
“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.”
“Working with Diane was great, she did an awesome job. This sale would not have happened without her hard work and I was completely satisfied with the service.”
“Working with Bobby was a pleasure—very professional and knowledgeable of the real estate in the area.”
“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!”
“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.”
“I thoroughly enjoyed my experience working with Bonnie Butler. She is honest, very professional, as well as down to earth. ”
Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Cherokee County real estate market, updated for September 2025. *
The typical home value in Cherokee County is projected to be $243,000 for the month of August. July’s finalized data reported the typical value of a home in the county to be $250,000—down 19.85% over the previous 12 months. For comparison, state-level data pegged home values at $353,000 in Texas for the most recent reporting period. That number is expected to float around $351,550 in August.
Cherokee County had 71 new listings and 44 listings that went under contract in July, increasing the area’s total available inventory to 253—up 8.58% from the previous month. Inventory is projected to have further increased in August.
Of those 253 active listings, 28.46% reduced their price in the month of July. The median listing price for homes in Cherokee County fell 6.39% from June to July, bringing the current median listing price to $279,900. Based on projected data for August, listing prices may continue to fall.
The number of days that homes have been on the market prior to going under contract rose sharply year-over-year. In July 2025, the median time for a listed property to go pending was 76 days, compared to 59 days in July 2024. However, in recent months the median number of days from listed to pending appears to be falling. 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.
Cherokee County offers residents a welcoming, close-knit community with affordable living, abundant outdoor recreation, and strong support for families and small businesses.
Cherokee County blends pine-forested landscapes with friendly, close-knit communities like Jacksonville and the county seat, Rusk, while remaining within easy reach of regional employers and healthcare in Tyler. Spacious homesites, lakefront properties, and in-town neighborhoods provide options for first-time buyers and those seeking more room to grow.
Weekends often revolve around outdoor adventure. The historic Texas State Railroad departs from Rusk for scenic excursions through the Piney Woods, a favorite for families and rail enthusiasts. Panoramic views await at Love’s Lookout Park, and anglers flock to Lake Jacksonville for bass fishing and paddle-friendly coves. History runs deep here, too: the Caddo Mounds State Historic Site near Alto offers an immersive look at Caddo culture through museum exhibits, trails, and special events.
Education anchors daily life. Jacksonville ISD provides wide-ranging academics, fine arts, and career and technical programs, while nearby districts serve smaller towns with strong community support. Local libraries, youth sports, and seasonal festivals add to the calendar, and county services are easy to navigate through the Cherokee County Government portal.
