Home prices in the Charlotte region rose in February even as the number of sales declined, according to new data from the Charlotte-area Realtor association, Canopy MLS.
The group said home sales dropped almost 9% compared with February 2025. The average sale price rose more than 2%, climbing to more than $483,000.
Canopy MLS said buyers remain wary of rising energy costs and the risks of broader economic instability. Still, Realtors remain optimistic as mortgage rates continue to flirt with dropping below 6%.
