The Twin Counties are entering a new era—one defined by smart growth, bold investments, and a community rising to meet opportunity. In this issue of Real Estate Report, we explore the people and projects leading the charge.

Local real estate expert Brett Hill of 1st Class Real Estate Triangle East brings clarity to the numbers, breaking down Q1 2025 housing trends across the region. Nashville saw an 18% increase in home sales, while Bailey led with homes selling for nearly 100% of asking price. Edgecombe County maintained its reputation for value and stability, and Tarboro emerged as an “opportunity market,” where homes are moving faster—even as prices soften slightly.

This kind of growth doesn’t happen in isolation. It’s supported by financial partners like Southern Bank, whose commitment to financial education and personal service has made them a trusted name in Eastern North Carolina. Their Get Well Classroom is helping more families navigate big decisions—like buying a home—with confidence and clarity.

Across both counties, the evidence of transformation is everywhere. New businesses are taking root. Major employers are expanding. Downtowns are being reimagined. And residents—new and longtime—are investing in the future.
