Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026 - Sep 2026).
Inventory and contract activity in Gillespie are showing notable movement in this rolling three-month view ending in September 2026. Active listings are steady year over year, but pending sales are up more than 15 percent and homes sold have climbed over 50 percent, pointing to stronger buyer follow-through than a year ago.
Pricing has responded to this firmer demand, with the typical home value up nearly 23 percent year over year and the median list price rising about 10 percent over the same period. At the same time, sellers are generally pricing close to where deals are closing, as the average sale-to-list ratio has edged above 96 percent while virtually no homes are selling above their asking price.
Timing dynamics underscore how conditions have shifted compared with last year. Homes now spend a median of 49 days on the market, running slightly faster than a year ago, and months of supply has tightened compared with prior periods, aligning with the current seller’s market reading. Buyers and sellers who want to navigate these evolving trends in Gillespie can turn to Agent Pronto to be matched with an experienced local agent who understands both sides of the table.

“Jane Kolmer did the most amazing job pricing, getting 2 of our houses and our 10 acre property under contract and sold fast, all in 3 months time. Jane is superior on pricing and told us precisely what to do to get the most value for our homes. As well as what not to do to save money. She is very knowledgeable and educated in land and property. We benefited from it greatly. Jane’s valuable advice saved us a fair amount money when preparing each home for the market. Her expertise was showed when we sold all 3 houses and property over appraised value. Jane’s wisdom is unmatched! We appreciate Jane and the Tammy Mitchell Hines Team as we looked for over 4 years for our forever home. I would recommend Jane and the Tammy Mitchell Hines Team every time. They are professional and will get results.”
“Nikki was OUTSTANDING throughout the entire process!! She let me know exactly every step that would be taken, presented my home with professional pictures that highlighted everything and emailed when offers came in and all the next steps until it was signed and I had sold my home!! Best realtor I have had in 30 years!!”
“Shonda did a wonderful job. She communicated clearly about the process and helped me to understand and set expectations. She made it feel like I had a friend on my side sharing enthusiasm and frustrations and made a great effort at learning more about me and my goals with purchasing my first home.”
“My husband and I worked with Judy to purchase our first home. She was incredibly responsive to all of our questions and was very passionate about helping us navigate and understand the process. She was amazing!!! Choosing someone to help us navigate this process was pretty scary, but she was on our team every step of the way! If you are looking for someone to help you buy a home for the first time, she's the one. :)”
“Eli did a great job explaining how things worked and what steps we needed to do next. Would definitely recommend. Made the buying process very easy! He knows his stuff and if he doesn’t he will definitely figure it out. Would 10/10 recommend using him and equity 55 group to sell or buy any property you might be interested in.”
“Lindsey was a wonderful realtor. She helped us purchase a house in 2025 and anytime we had any questions she walked us through every step and made it an easy process. We also had to wait two months during the shutdown and she stuck through it with us! You may not find that anywhere else. If you get the chance to work with her, do it!”
“Elizabeth is a very professional person and knows about Real Estate”
“Tara was amazing to work with! She helped us sell our house and purchase a new home. She is extremely professional and very knowledgeable in her field. She made the whole process very easy for us. We would highly recommend her!”
“We have worked with Julie on different occasions..She has been great..She is a hard worker and very knowledgeable about the current markets..We wouldnt use anyone else..Highly recommend..”
“Justin listed my 86 year old mother’s home. We found Justin very knowledgeable about real estate in her neighborhood leading to him giving us very good guidance on a number of decisions we faced. He was extremely patient and professional in all dealings with my mother, sister and me. He sold my mother’s house in a very short period of time during a timeframe that is not typically a busy time for real estate. I would highly recommend Justin as a realtor.”
“We are first time home buyers and Sarah made it very easy to buy this house. She always called me back or text me back with the answers I needed right away. I never had to wait for her to get back to me. She was very knowledgeable and helpful with us going through this process. I would defiantly recommend Sarah/Amy to potential home buyers.”
