“It was great to once again work with Debra Mcelroy to find a new house. She had previously helped me find my first house in Virginia and this year, she helped me sell that house and purchase a new one. Because of my previous experience with her, I didn't even consider any other agents. And that decision paid off tremendously. She sold my house quickly and for a great price, then help me successfully win the bidding on the house I really wanted to purchase. Throughout the process, she was always on top of things and always available to respond to my questions. Her knowledge and experience were evident throughout and made the difference in several difficult situations.”

Halifax County real estate Market Report.

Latest Monthly Snapshot
September 2026
Monthly Pricing Trends for Halifax County
Monthly data for the latest available year.
Monthly Inventory and Sales Activity for Halifax County
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 in Halifax County is elevated, with about 6.1 months of supply in September, up more than 65 percent from a year ago and clearly in buyer’s market territory compared with Virginia’s 3.2 months. Contract activity has cooled sharply, as pending sales are down more than 50 percent year over year even though new listings have grown more than 20 percent over the same period.
Pricing is adjusting to these softer conditions, with the typical home value down nearly 8 percent from last year and the median list price also lower year over year. At the same time, sellers are testing higher listing numbers month to month, pushing the median list price up more than 20 percent since August while sale prices moved down sharply from the prior month.
Seller leverage appears limited, as only about 13 percent of recent sales closed above list and the average sale-to-list ratio is near 96 percent, roughly flat compared with last year. With homes taking a median of 62 days to sell, down from a year ago but longer than in late summer, both buyers and sellers can benefit from an Agent Pronto–recommended agent who understands the shifting balance of power and how to navigate this market effectively for buyers and sellers alike.

“Mike was knowledgeable about the area and understanding what was important to get our property sold. We had a very unique property that he was able to market and price very well. He was extremely efficient and helpful in the entire process, even before we officially decided to work with him, he took time to research and inform us on tax status that we were unaware of in order to successfully accomplish the goal of selling our property. He was patient but also urgent in his communication and helping us everything needed to reach our goal. We would definitely work with him again and refer him to others! 10/10 highly recommend!”
“Gurdeep did an exceptional job as our realtor. We were first time homebuyers and she made sure that we had all the information we needed throughout the process.
