Year-over-year trends in Houston are harder to pin down, but recent momentum is clear, with typical home values up 5.56% month over month to about $337,000. Compared with the broader Matanuska-Susitna Borough, where values sit around $420,000 and rose 3.7% over the past year, Houston remains a more affordable option with faster recent price acceleration.
In February 2026, homes in Houston typically listed for about $747,500 and stayed on the market a median of 41 days, a sharp 26.79% drop in days on market from the prior month. With only 8 active listings, 4 new listings, and 3 pending sales, low supply is helping support prices, and roughly one-third of recent sales closed above list price as sale-to-list ratios edged slightly over 1.00.
Looking ahead to March 2026, typical home values are projected to rise to about $345,875, while the projected median list price jumps to around $961,500 with inventory holding steady at 8 homes. This limited supply and rising prices align with Houston’s seller’s market label, reflected in a market gauge score of 27.
