Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Lee County real estate market. *
September 2026
Monthly data for the latest available year.
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 and contract activity in Lee County picked up notably in September 2026, with active listings up slightly year over year and new listings rising more than 50 percent from the prior month. At the same time, homes sold jumped more than 80 percent compared with a year earlier and pending sales climbed over 30 percent, showing stronger buyer engagement as more properties come to market.
Prices are adjusting amid this increased movement, with the typical home value up about 8 percent year over year but down from August, and the median list price up more than 50 percent from last year while also falling sharply month over month. Days on market have shortened to 54, down from both last month and last year, and months of supply has compressed from double digits earlier in the year to around four, reinforcing the current seller’s market reading.
Compared with Virginia overall, Lee County’s home values sit well below the state’s median sale price, which was above $420,000 in September while the county’s typical value was around $140,000. Local inventory is also looser than the state’s 3.2 months of supply, but still signals conditions that favor sellers, especially with no recent sales closing above list and the average sale-to-list ratio under 90 percent suggesting room for negotiation. Buyers and sellers who want to navigate these shifting conditions can turn to Agent Pronto to connect with a knowledgeable local agent who understands this market.
Lee County offers the people who live there a welcoming, tight-knit community with beautiful natural scenery, abundant outdoor recreation, affordable living, and opportunities to connect through local schools, services, and culture.
Lee County offers a quiet, rural lifestyle with practical connections to larger hubs such as Knoxville and Kingsport. Residents value its slower pace, reasonable home prices, and access to daily necessities along key routes like US‑58 and US‑421.

“I contacted James long before I actually decided to list my home. He was most helpful every step of the way. He was extremely responsive in everey situation. I need a couple inspection items repaired and he arranged for that to be accomplished immediately and at minimal expense. James was always plkeasant nand fun to work with. I highly recommend James for anyone in the market. He is most honest and on top of that; fun to work with.”
“Working with Gurdeep was an exceptional experience. She guided me like an elder sister, standing by my side at every step of the property-buying journey. Her dedication, care, and personal attention made me feel as though she was purchasing the property for herself. She ensured everything went smoothly, always keeping my best interests in mind. I truly appreciate her professionalism, honesty, and genuine commitment. I couldn't have asked for a better person to guide me through such an important milestone. Highly recommended!”
“I appreciate her knowledge, accessibility and response when I had questions.”
“Mike has been an outstanding property manager. He’s responsive, professional, dependable, and consistently stays on top of anything that comes up. Communication is excellent, and I always feel confident knowing the property is being handled properly. It’s rare to find someone who takes this much ownership and genuinely makes being a property owner easier. I highly recommend Mike to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy property manager. While I’m sad he’s leaving the PM side of things, I’d absolutely ask him to represent me as a buying or selling agent 10/10 times!”
“My husband and I recently sold our home, and we honestly couldn't have asked for a better realtor than Daniel! From start to finish, he was absolutely exceptional! Incredibly knowledgeable, detail-oriented, patient, and always responsive. What impressed us most was how much effort he put into making sure we understood every step of the process. He even took the time to record a video walking us through the some documents, explaining everything clearly so we knew exactly what we were signing. That level of care and dedication is truly rare! Daniel was also very approachable, open to our ideas and suggestions, and always willing to work with us. His extensive experience selling homes in our neighborhood was a huge advantage, and his guidance gave us so much confidence throughout the process. What truly sets Daniel apart is that he genuinely cares about his clients. We never felt rushed or pressured, and he always made us feel heard and supported. We are incredibly grateful for his hard work, professionalism, and dedication. If you're looking for a realtor who is knowledgeable, trustworthy, responsive, and truly goes above and beyond, look no further than Daniel! We wholeheartedly recommend him and would work with him again in a heartbeat!”
“Needed a local agent to represent us because we didn't live in area. Amber was polite, promt, and professional. Very responsive and knowledgeable. Was a great experience from start to finish.”
“We cannot recommend Lexie enough! She was patient, knowledgeable, and very supportive throughout the entire home search and purchasing process. My husband and I decided - when I was six months pregnant! - that we wanted to move forward with buying our first home in DC. We were paired with Lexie through Zillow scheduling on a house tour and could not have been happier. Lexie is from the area, which helped us think through neighborhoods and needs. She was patient with us as we changed our minds on what we really wanted at least a few times. She met us for house tours in almost all DC summer elements - torrential downpours and over 100 degree heat indexes. We ultimately ended up in the perfect home and neighborhood for our growing family thanks to her support. We would recommend her to anyone in the DMV area looking to buy or sell their home!!”
“Manavi was incredibly supportive, communicative, and responsive throughout the entire home buying process. She took the time to get to know us personally, which made a huge difference in helping us find the right home for the long-term. She went above and beyond to answer our questions, understand our needs, and guide us every step of the way. We’re so grateful for her help and would highly recommend her! We specifically centered our search around Old Town Alexandria and Del Ray Alexandria, settling on the Parker-Gray neighborhood, but Manavi’s knowledge of the entire northern Virginia region is extensive and impressive!”
“I was new to Richmond and got connected to Mike by booking a tour on Zillow. We clicked immediately! He showed an interest in my personal situation and the reasons for buying. He was very flexible as we looked at properties in neighborhoods that, looking back, I would not want to live in. He was patient, informative, and very consultative during the entire process. I highly recommend Mike! He’s become a friend and I look forward to seeing his continued business growth!”
“Ashley and Dawn were amazing working with us, they helped us negotiate on our home and made sure to handle everything. They answered all of our questions no matter big or small it may have seemed”
“Raegan Cox was a phenomenal help in us buy our house. He went over and above many many times and stuck with the process, advocating for us each step of the way with the lender. I had to travel internationally while in the process and that was not a process. He made things happen when we were not in town. We cannot recommend Raegan high enough. He will help you get into a house and doesn't let things slip. Great communicator. Easy to work with.”
“Jasmine was AMAZING!! Attentive, well informed, and VERY PROFESSIONAL! Best Customer Service Support I’ve experienced in ages! The rest of team as well went above and beyond to help get me my new home. Every question was answered quickly and accurately. They made sure there were no unexpected surprises. All deadlines were explained and met. EXCELLENT AND JOB WELL DONE!!!”
“Darren Robertson is AMAZING! We worked with him 8 years ago the first time for a purchase. This year we bought a new home, AND sold our condo both with Darren at the helm, in 54 days!! Professional giant! Superior communication every single step of the way. If you want a real estate agent that gets the job done, look no further. Cheers! David and Sara”
“We were in need of an "instant" buyers agent for a home we wanted to purchase at Lake Frederick VA. As a simple incredible stroke of luck we contacted Yvonne Holland. Yvonne is extremely familiar with Lake Frederick and she lives in the Community. She went above and beyond what anyone would expect to purchase and quickly close the purchase of our new home. This lady is the real deal and we would recommend her exclusively!”
“Marcy and her team are true professionals and know how to get your house sold They make selling your home easy guiding you through the selling process They staged my home and we got a offer on the first day of the open house Kept me updated through the selling process all the way till the end of closing Highly recommend Marcy She makes selling your home easy”
“Agent Pronto's recommended agent, Jen Richards, was very thorough and wonderful to work with. We engaged with her in the 2nd half of June and she went to work right away having a complete set of nearly 100 photos taken and establishing an on-line presence of our property as "coming soon". In the meantime, she carefully coached us on what furniture should remain in the property and what items should be put away. Once we were ready to start showing our property just before July 4th, Jen immediately scheduled two open houses and proceeded to get the word out to her realtor community that our property was available. In subsequent weeks, additional open houses were scheduled and several prospective buyers scheduled private showings of our property. As the weeks continued to pass, Jen assured us that we should not be discouraged by not having an offer already. In fact, there were several interested parties whose pursuit of our property was interrupted by vacation travel plans. As time proceeded without an offer, Jen moved to expand her advertising to cover a broader area within the Washington metro area and by mid September we started to receive offers with more than one of them being all-cash offers. Finally, right at the beginning of October, we received two very attractive cash offers and we quickly arrived at the point of coming to terms on one of the offers and we successfully closed on the sale of our property on October 16th! Overall, we were very pleased with the listing agent, Jen Richards, who was recommended to us by Agent Pronto.”
“Boris, Thank you for helping me sell my first house and the place I called home for 15 years! Although this was a bitter sweet moment your professionalism, expert knowledge of the housing market, constant communication and guidance made this experience an easy and smooth transaction on our end. I’ll be sure to stay in contact and share your information with anyone looking for a realtor.”
“Jennifer did a great job helping me and my husband buy a townhouse in Arlington, VA. She's extremely responsive and always happy to help out with anything we needed during the home buying process. She truly went above and beyond for us since we were buying from out of state. She was ready to show us homes on short notice and in a small timeframe while we were in state and she took care of all other in-person processes needed once we were gone. She's also clearly very knowledgeable about the area and the home buying process, she was very upfront and informative with all the information we needed. I would absolutely recommend working with her!”
“Kris made both buying our new home and selling our previous one a smooth and successful experience, all within just three months. She was patient, kind, and consistently available to show us homes, answer our questions, and do whatever was needed to get our home ready for the market. Her dedication and positive attitude never wavered, and we always felt supported throughout the process. We’re incredibly grateful for her help and would highly recommend Kris to anyone looking for a caring, dependable real estate agent.”
“Emma was great to work with! She was very responsive and listened to our requests which made this selling process much smoother. I would definitely recommend her as a realtor!”
