Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Austin real estate market, updated for April 2026. *
Austin’s housing market has cooled notably compared to last year, with typical home values down about 19.6%. Inventory is still up 12.5% year over year, and pending sales have climbed roughly 22.22%. New listings have grown by about 50.0%, giving buyers more options than they had a year ago.
In February 2026, the typical home value in Austin was about $139,500, well below Scott County’s $209,900. Homes spent a median of 41 days on the market, and there were 18 active listings with 9 new listings and 11 pending sales, indicating steady movement. Roughly 11% of listings saw a price drop, about one-third of homes sold above asking, and the average sale-to-list price ratio was very close to full price at 0.99.
Looking ahead to March 2026, projections point to a typical home value around $125,750 and a median list price near $149,900, with inventory edging down to 17. With about 3 months of supply and a market gauge of 16, conditions still tilt toward sellers, even as prices and supply shift. In a market where local trends differ from the broader Scott County area and numbers can change quickly, both buyers and sellers can benefit from Agent Pronto helping them find an agent who knows Austin well.
Market gauge is calculated based on the the number of active listings divided by home sales over the most recently available reporting period.
Austin offers a welcoming, close-knit community with accessible amenities, ample parks and outdoor recreation, and vibrant local shops and events that make life here rewarding.
Austin offers a quieter, close knit alternative to the faster pace of nearby Scottsburg and the Louisville metro, while still giving residents easy access to major routes like I 65. Life centers on local schools and community events, with everyday needs covered by neighborhood shops, small businesses, and casual dining.
Families appreciate the strong role of Austin High School and Austin Elementary School, which double as hubs for sports, festivals, and youth programs. Outdoor time often means a quick drive to Hardy Lake State Recreation Area, where boating, fishing, and camping are weekend routines. In town, parks and ballfields support Little League games and pickup basketball, reinforcing a sense of shared roots.
Residents stay connected through local organizations, churches, and gatherings at spots like the Scott County Family YMCA. For broader services and shopping, people head into Scott County or the retail corridors near Sellersburg.
