A direct answer based on recent closings
If you are thinking about selling, the real question is whether the market still rewards clean pricing. My answer is yes, but only if you respect last month's pace, because a typical sale took 27 days and the median sold price was $260,000.
That tells me the market is still active enough for a serious listing to get attention, but not forgiving enough for an inflated launch. The 98% sold-to-list price also reinforces that buyers were not regularly paying far beyond asking.
In Roanoke, VA, I would treat pricing as your first decision, not your last one. A home that starts too high can lose momentum before the right buyers ever engage.
Set the price with the 27-day timeline in mind. Stay realistic around the $260,000 sold level. Then let the market respond instead of fighting it.
