Inventory in Bayou L'Ourse has been very limited in the latest rolling three-month period. Active listings have hovered between one and three over the past few years, with just a handful of sales in each period. This low supply underpins the current seller's market reading, with the market gauge firmly at a strong 10.
Contract activity has moved in small but telling steps. In mid-2026, there was one home sold and one new listing, similar to several prior three-month periods where one or two sales carried the trend. Earlier periods, such as late 2023 and early 2024, also saw one to two sales but with more new listings at times, which briefly expanded choices for buyers before tightening again.
Prices have reacted noticeably to these shifts in a small pool of sales. Median sale prices ranged from about $55,000 in late 2024 up to the mid-$200,000s in several 2023 and 2024 periods, before settling closer to the mid-$100,000s by mid-2026, underscoring how a single sale can sway the averages. Days on market have also swung from more than 250 days in late 2025 to under 30 days by mid-2026, signaling that well-priced homes can move quickly when they appear. Months of supply has dropped from more than six months in late 2025 to around three months or less in several recent periods, reinforcing conditions that favor sellers. In a market this thinly traded and dynamic, both buyers and sellers can benefit from Agent Pronto helping them find an experienced local agent to interpret the numbers and guide each move.
