Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Sep 2026).
Inventory in Franklin County has expanded compared with last year, with active listings up more than a third while months of supply has surged to about 5.7 months, signaling a clear buyer’s market. Contract activity has cooled, as homes sold are down sharply year over year and pending sales have only inched up, suggesting more options but slower turnover.
Pricing is adjusting to this softer demand, with the typical home value down nearly 20 percent from a year ago and off more than 13 percent just since August. List prices, however, have held roughly steady year over year, and sellers are receiving about 96 percent of their asking price on average as only a small share of homes close above list.
Compared with the broader Virginia market, where months of supply sits closer to 3.2 months and prices are slightly higher year over year, Franklin County is tilting more toward buyers with longer marketing times and more inventory. With median days on market stretching to nearly two months and fewer quick, above-list sales than earlier in the year, both sides need clear pricing and negotiation strategies, and Agent Pronto can connect buyers and sellers with an agent who understands these shifting conditions.

“FIVE STARS JUST AREN’T ENOUGH! We can’t say enough good things about the Christy Crouch Team! From the day we went under contract until the day we closed, the entire experience was absolutely outstanding. Customer service was second to none, communication was off the charts, and the professionalism demonstrated throughout the entire process was unmatched. We never had to wonder what was happening or what came next. We were kept informed every step of the way, and it was obvious we were dealing with people who genuinely cared about us and getting the job done right. In a world where exceptional customer service sometimes seems like a thing of the past, the Christy Crouch Team is a shining example of how business SHOULD be done! Would we recommend them? ABSOLUTELY, without hesitation! Thank you to Christy and the entire team for making such an important chapter in our lives a truly wonderful experience. Mike & Sherry”

“Greg did an amazing job helping us find our home. Being overseas made it difficult, but Greg made sure to help however he could and made us feel comfortable having him as a realtor. He went above and beyond for us. He's extremely trustworthy and cares about his clients, especially first time buyers like myself. Greg has also been extremely helpful even after the closing, staying in contact and making sure everything is going well.”

“Thanks to Steven, we were able to successfully close on our first rental property, and we could not be happier with the experience. As first-time investment property buyers, we had a lot of questions and wanted to make sure we were making informed decisions throughout the process. Steven was incredibly helpful, knowledgeable, and patient every step of the way. He took the time to explain things clearly, kept us informed of important updates, and was always quick to respond whenever we reached out. His professionalism and attention to detail helped make what could have been a stressful process feel much more manageable. We truly appreciated his guidance, honesty, and dedication to helping us achieve our goal of purchasing our first rental property. Thanks to his hard work and support, the transaction went smoothly from start to finish. We would highly recommend Steven to anyone looking to buy, sell, or invest in real estate.”

“Smooth and easy. Rusty was receptive to what we were looking for and was extremely patient. From the very first conversation, it was clear he genuinely cared about helping me find the right home—not just closing a deal. He’s local and is knowledgeable, responsive, and incredibly patient throughout the entire process. Every question I had was answered quickly and clearly, and he took the time to explain. Rusty is also a U.S. Marine Corps Veteran and his commitment and dedication shows! What stood out the most was his professionalism and positive attitude. Rusty was down to earth and treated us like his own family! Buying a home can be stressful, but Rusty made it smooth, organized, and even enjoyable. I couldn’t be happier with the outcome and would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.”

“Angel is an angel! We recently purchased our first home after relocating to roanoke in july. She really led the way on the whole process! I truly belive we wouldn't be here without her. I can't even articulate what a wonderful experience we had working with her. She was very communitive through the whole process, gently guiding us to the right home in the right neighborhood for the right price. No games, just what we needed for being so green to this whole process. She's straight forward and honest, if you need her advice she will happily give it when asked. When things started to fall apart on our end she kept moving and found our home, We were the first ones in the door the day it went on the market and a offer was made and accepted that evening! With little cash to close after the big move, she negotiated the perfect offer for us so both parties were happy and jubilant! We cannot wait to have her back over once we finish a few projects to show our progress. My only regrets is that I didn't write this review sooner. She is a treasure and treated our new family like her own. If you are looking for an agent, a friend or someone extremely knowledgeable about the area, you just found her.”

“I listed a house for sale in Fairlawn, VA. Within an hour of me listing it FSBO, I received a call from Riley. He was so forthcoming and candid that I decided to give him a chance to list it with EXPRealty. Little did I know what I was signing up for. Not only did he handle all the usual things (open house, showings, etc.) but he was my advocate the whole time. I felt like I could trust him. He communicated promptly, candidly and clearly with me, always gave me the good the bad and the bottom line. His attention to detail - impeccable. His connections with a contractor allowed the repairs to happen in a timely manner and on budget. I would go thru him again if I needed to buy/sell another house. Thank you Riley!”

“Scott helped me with buying this property and with quickly selling it when I was transferred cross country. He was available when I needed help with things and even called me in few cases to make sure I was doing what I needed to move the process along.”

“Rob was incredibly helpful throughout the home buying process! We closed in just over three weeks! Rob was knowledgeable, and fast with helpful responses to all our questions, negotiated with sellers to get any issues found during inspection fixed at no cost to us. This will hopefully be our forever home, but we would choose Rob again in any future home purchases in the Roanoke area.”

“Kimberly and Holly were very personable and professional. They were very informative. They guided us through this cumbersome and tedious process. They both were great to work with and kept us abreast with what we needed to do to sell our home. We are most grateful to work with them. They know what it takes to sell a house!”

“I have just sold my house thanks to Mr. Johannsen's professional work. He accompanied me on the sales process with helpful and expert advice from beginning to the end. I particularly appreciated his prompt responsiveness when I had questions. Everything went smoothly. It was obvious that he put a lot of thought and foresight into his job. I can highly recommend him.”
Mark A. Dalton & Co., Inc.
“Have used her once as a buyer and again as a seller. She is extremely professional yet personable. She knows the ins and outs of buying and selling and won't let anyone take advantage of her clients. Experienced in VA loans. She has also a great support network (husband is a termite inspector, she uses an expert photographer for taking the home photos, and put us in contact with a VERY good home inspector). I wouldn't recommend anyone else in Hampton Roads.”
