An independent brokerage for five Raleigh neighborhoods, known street by street, from Oakwood's porches to North Hills.
Free. A range in seconds, then a written number from an agent within one business day.
We work five neighborhoods inside the Beltline and nowhere else. Every agent here has sold on the streets they talk about.
That focus is the whole idea. A house on Bloodworth Street and a house off Six Forks Road are different sales, with different buyers, inspections and rules.
Oakwood needs a Certificate of Appropriateness before you change a porch rail. A North Hills townhome comes with HOA documents a buyer will ask for in the first week.
So we lead with the neighborhoods. Read the guide, see what sold last month, and if you're selling, start with a number. Read the Oakwood guide

Raleigh's 19th-century district: Victorian and Queen Anne houses on brick sidewalks, a ten-minute walk from the Capitol.

Hayes Barton and Bloomsbury bungalows and Tudors around the Glenwood Avenue crossroads, with the Five Points shops on foot.

1950s brick cottages and garden apartments around the Village District, a mile from NC State.

A 1907 hilltop neighborhood across the Boylan Avenue bridge, with the downtown skyline at the end of the street.

Ranches and newer townhomes off Six Forks Road, with groceries, offices and a cinema at the North Hills center.
Pick an address and the three closest recent sales appear here.
Start typing your street address. You'll see an estimated range from public records and the three closest sales, then you can ask the agent who works your street for a full market analysis.
We don't have records for that address in this demo. Pick one from the list, or ask for a market analysis and an agent will price it by hand.

I started Keystone & Pine in 2014 in an old brick storefront on Person Street, with two agents and one rule: we only take listings in neighborhoods we can walk to.
Twelve years later there are six of us, and the rule hasn't changed. It's why we can tell you which Oakwood porches need Historic Development Commission approval, which Five Points basements take water, and what the house two doors down really sold for.
We're independent. No franchise fee comes out of your sale, and nobody in another state decides how we price your home.
When you call, you get the agent who works your street, and an answer the same day.
