Texas’s Buy-Side Real Estate Market: Q1 2026 Analysis

Texas Market Snapshot: Q1 2026

Texas's single-family market opened the first quarter of 2026 above the balanced-market line and tightened sharply across the quarter. Active inventory opened January at 112,262 homes, rose to 114,059 in February, and eased to 112,631 in March, ending the quarter essentially where it began. Months of supply moved more decisively. The reading opened at 6.7 months in January, slightly above the 6-month balanced-market benchmark, eased to 5.7 in February as activity picked up, and reached 4.3 in March as transaction volume accelerated. The quarter crossed from balanced into seller-favorable territory across three months.

Median sale prices climbed each month of the quarter. The statewide median opened January at $332,800, rose to $336,000 in February, and reached $345,300 in March, a 3.8 percent gain across three months. Days on market traced a different path. The reading opened at 88 days in January, edged up to 91 in February, and compressed to 81 in March, with days on market still running noticeably higher than at any point during Q1 2025.

Year-over-year context shows a market that ran looser than the prior year through most of the quarter before crossing tighter in March. January 2026 inventory of 112,262 homes was 3.9 percent above January 2025, with supply running 0.6 months looser at 6.7 months versus 6.1. By March, inventory was 5.5 percent below the prior-year reading of 119,820 homes, while months of supply landed at 4.3, four-tenths of a month below March 2025's 4.7. Days on market in March ran 11 days longer than the prior year at 81 versus 70. The median price of $345,300 in March 2026 ran 1.3 percent below March 2025, a modest year-over-year softening.

Texas's Top 25 Buyer's Agents and Teams: Q1 2026 Rankings

Agent Pronto/CINC has ranked Texas's top 25 buyer's agents and teams based on total transaction volume in Q1 2026. This proprietary buy-side data reveals both high-volume operators and luxury specialists who dominate Texas's diverse real estate market.

What the Data Shows

Texas's top 25 contains a broad mix of high-volume operators and luxury specialists. Ten agents and teams operate with median prices between $300,000 and $500,000, four work below $300,000, five sit between $500,000 and $1 million, and six carry medians at or above $1 million. Christie Cannon leads the rankings with 120 closings at a $366,745 median, generating $50.1 million in total volume, the highest in the state. Ram Konara ranks second with 88 closings at a $472,495 median for $48.5 million, and Christopher Marti ranks third with 126 closings at a $307,597 median for $40.8 million, the highest closing count in the top 25. Dawn Johnson follows at rank four with 104 closings at a $275,450 median for $40.0 million.

A different model appears among the rankings. Kumara Wilcoxon ranks sixth with six closings at a $3,850,000 median, generating $21.3 million in total volume from a fraction of the transaction count of the volume leaders. Laura Sweeney ranks tenth with four closings at a $5,125,000 median for $20.5 million, and Patrick Seder occupies rank twenty-five with two closings at a $6,122,500 median for $12.2 million. Kasteena Parikh, Paulette Greene, and Colleen Sherlock also reach the rankings through small numbers of high-value transactions at medians between $1.3 million and $3.2 million. These agents and teams reflect the dollar-volume ranking bias toward luxury work.

The breadth of Texas's top 25 is wide on both axes. Median prices range from $251,700 to $6,122,500, and closing counts span from two to 126. Because the rankings are ordered by total sold dollar volume, agents and teams in Texas reach the list through three distinct paths: high transaction counts at price points near or just above the statewide median of $345,300, moderate counts at upper-mid-market and mid-luxury prices, or single-digit counts at substantially higher per-transaction values. All three paths are well-represented, with the volume path producing the largest share of the rankings.

Conclusion

Texas's first quarter of 2026 saw supply cross from balanced into seller-favorable territory, tightening from 6.7 months to 4.3, while inventory ended the quarter near where it began and the median sale price climbed 3.8 percent within the quarter to $345,300. Year-over-year, March supply landed four-tenths of a month below the prior year, and the median price ran 1.3 percent below March 2025. Within this environment, the top 25 buyer's agents and teams closed 1,019 transactions across median prices ranging from $251,700 to $6,122,500. The list spans high-volume operators including three agents and teams with more than 100 closings, mid-market specialists, and a meaningful luxury cohort.
