Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Sep 2026).

Year over year, James City County’s typical home value has moved lower, dropping nearly 16 percent even as median list prices are only slightly below last September. In contrast, Virginia as a whole has seen home values edge up, highlighting that this local market is adjusting more than the broader state market.

Looking at the latest month of September 2026, buyers are seeing more options, with active listings up about 20 percent from a year ago and months of supply rising to 2.9. Even with this added inventory, the market still leans toward sellers, with a seller’s market gauge and an average sale-to-list ratio around 99 percent.

Sales activity shows mixed signals, as homes sold have climbed roughly 13 percent year over year while pending sales have slipped slightly. At the same time, properties are taking about 39 days to go under contract and the share selling above list price has grown to just over one in five, so both buyers and sellers can benefit from an Agent Pronto–recommended agent who understands these shifting dynamics.

Not only did he show up on time and get back to me on my home searches quickly, he answered my questions on time and actually, in a thoughtful way, I could tell he cared for my well being when choosing a new home. I would absolutely recommend William Mallory, we will definitely be using him again in the future!”

“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.”

“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!”

The sellers gave us a tight timeline to close and she worked proactively with the inspectors and loan company, even on weekends, to make sure deadlines were hit. We had a smooth closing and she has also given us great contractor recommendations. Thank you Gurdeep!”
