Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Houston County real estate market. *
September 2026
Monthly data for the latest available year.
Monthly supply and activity totals for the latest available year.
Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Sep 2026).
Inventory in Houston County has expanded over the past year, with active listings up sharply compared with last September and sitting at 610 homes. Months of supply has also risen more than 30 percent year over year to 4.7 months, signaling a more balanced environment. Despite that added inventory, closings have picked up, as homes sold climbed nearly 14 percent from a year ago.
Contract activity shows some crosscurrents, with pending sales down slightly year over year even as recent closed sales improved. New listings declined more than 25 percent from August to September, which could ease some of the upward pressure on supply if the pattern continues.
Pricing has been relatively steady, with the typical home value up about 1 percent from last year, even as the median list price has grown nearly 7 percent. Homes are taking longer to sell, with median days on market reaching 64 days, roughly 15 percent higher than a year ago, and only about 11 percent of sales closing above list price. Compared with Alabama as a whole, Houston County’s prices sit below the state median, while months of supply is similar to the statewide level. With conditions balanced between buyers and sellers, Agent Pronto can connect both sides with an experienced local agent who understands these shifting trends.
Houston County offers residents a welcoming, close-knit community with strong schools, ample outdoor recreation, and a vibrant lineup of local services and events.
Houston County stands out from nearby rural communities by blending regional agriculture and military connections with a strong, year round city lifestyle. Anchored by Dothan, the county offers more shopping, medical care, and entertainment than many surrounding areas, while still maintaining a friendly, familiar pace of life.
Families appreciate the county’s school options, including Dothan City Schools and Houston County Schools, and a busy youth sports scene centered on facilities like Westgate Park. Weekend plans often include events at Landmark Park, local baseball at the Dothan Miracle Field Complex, or hiking and fishing at Lake Tholocco on nearby Fort Novosel.
Downtown Dothan has an expanding arts and dining scene, highlighted by the Wiregrass Museum of Art and independent restaurants and coffee shops that draw residents from towns like Cowarts and Kinsey. Everyday needs are easy to meet, yet you can still drive a few minutes and be on a quiet back road or at a local farm stand.
With steady growth and a mix of established neighborhoods and new construction, timing and preparation matter. Whether planning to buy your first home in Taylor or list a longtime property in Rehobeth, connecting early with the right local expert through Agent Pronto helps both buyers and sellers move confidently.
