Sellers need the active, pending, and sold range together before choosing a number.
If you are relying on current asking prices alone to set your list price, I would stop there. In Campbell County, VA, the most useful pricing decision comes from reading active, pending, and sold numbers together.
Last month, active listings in Campbell County, VA were centered at $349,000. Pending homes were centered at $309,900, newly pending homes at $249,500, and closed sales at $291,450. Those four figures create a much stronger pricing map than any one category by itself. I read that pattern as a warning against using the highest visible number as your default. Sellers still have support from low supply, and recent closings reached 99.1% of asking, but the homes entering contract are not centered at the same level as the active field. That means buyers in Campbell County, VA are still rewarding listings that fit the market's accepted range. If you want clean momentum, you need to know where your home belongs inside that spread rather than assuming the active median tells the whole story. Use active listings to understand your competition. Use pending and sold numbers to test whether your price can hold up. Choose a launch price that feels intentional on day one, not negotiable because it was too high to start.
