“Working with Judy Petrak to sell our home was an absolute game-changer. She went completely above and beyond from start to finish. The professional photos and digital staging she provided made our home look spectacular and generated immediate interest. Once the offers came in, her negotiation skills got us an incredible deal. What truly set her apart, though, was her network—she had contractors and support on standby the entire time and offered invaluable assistance through the home inspection. She made a complex process feel seamless. We are so grateful and highly recommend her!”

Monthly Pricing Trends for Northumberland County
Monthly data for the latest available year.
Monthly Inventory and Sales Activity for Northumberland 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 (May 2026).
Inventory in Northumberland County has expanded, with 195 active listings in May, up slightly from last year and above the pace seen earlier this spring. Homes are taking longer to move, with the median days on market rising to 50 and months of supply climbing sharply year over year to 8.2, firmly positioning the area as a buyer’s market compared with Virginia’s 2.6 months of supply.
Pricing has been adjusting amid this looser inventory backdrop, yet values are still moving higher overall. The typical home value reached about $533,000 in May, up more than 40 percent from a year ago, even as the median list price has eased month over month and only about 20 percent of sales are closing above asking.
Sales activity has cooled, with 21 homes sold in May and closed sales down nearly 30 percent from a year earlier, while new listings and pending sales have also fallen on an annual basis. Even so, the average sale-to-list price ratio remains close to 99 percent, indicating that correctly priced homes are still finding buyers, and Agent Pronto can connect both buyers and sellers with an agent who understands these conditions.

“Debbie not only helped us find exactly what we were looking for, and where, but she helped us set up the sale of our previous house, and helped us negotiate consecutive closing dates as well as a possession maintenance period of our previous house in order to make our move easier. Having now worked with her on a sale and a purchase, plus her having done wonders for other family members, we would recommend her to anyone looking to purchase a home.”
“It is not easy buying a property from across the country. William went to great lengths to help relieve any concerns we had. He answered calls and texts after normal working hours due to time zone differences. He was always postive and upbeat. I would not only reccommend William Mallory to anyone looking to purchase in Virginia Beach, I hope to use him again when the time comes to sell.”
“Great experience with Brooke. This is the fourth time she's been involved with a purchase and selling of a home.”
“Carla is a seasoned agent with a wealth of knowledge in the Northern Virginia area. We worked with her in the past, both buying and selling homes. We were extremely happy throughout the process then, and on the recent sale of our home. She is the only agent I would use going forward should the need arise. Thank you Carla!!”
“Nick was great to work with! He was very personable and easy going. He made time for every home we wanted to see at the exact times we wanted to see it. He stuck with us even after a 6 month lull in looking at homes. I would consider Nick not only a professional, but he has become a friend.”
“We cannot say enough good things about Danny. This was our second time working with him, and there is a reason we came back. He has earned our trust time and time again, and if we could use him for every real estate transaction in the future, we absolutely would. From listing and marketing our home to navigating inspections, repairs, buyer concerns, and closing, Danny went above and beyond every step of the way. We faced several unexpected challenges during the process, but he remained calm, proactive, and solution-oriented throughout. What sets Danny apart is his communication, professionalism, and genuine dedication to his clients. He kept us informed, advocated for our interests, coordinated with all parties involved, and made sure nothing fell through the cracks. We wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, responsive, and trustworthy realtor.”

Thank you so much for helping us find our new home.”

“I cannot recommend Wes Sparks at eXp Realty highly enough! My father and I recently worked with Wes to sell my father's home, and the entire experience was seamless, professional, and incredibly successful. From our very first meeting, it was clear that Wes is an expert in his field. He brought a wealth of market knowledge and a strategic approach that gave us immediate confidence. Selling a family home can often be an emotional and complex process, but Wes handled everything with the utmost respect and patience.”
