Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Sep 2026).
Year over year, Anderson County’s typical home value is down sharply, while median list prices are up solidly. Homes are generally less expensive than across Texas as a whole, where the median sale price is higher and has only slipped slightly over the past year. Inventory has thinned somewhat compared with last September, though not dramatically.
In September’s snapshot, the typical home value sat around $197,000, while the median list price was closer to $253,000, highlighting a noticeable gap between what sellers are asking and what buyers are paying. Homes are taking a median of 90 days to go under contract, yet the share selling above list has edged up to just over 3 percent and the average sale-to-list ratio is holding around 99 percent, suggesting buyers and sellers are finding common ground on price.
Supply conditions show a neutral market, with about 5.3 months of inventory locally versus 5.7 months statewide, giving neither side a clear upper hand. New listings and active listings are both down from a year ago, but homes sold and pending sales are higher, pointing to steady demand working through a leaner pool of options. With these mixed signals on pricing, timing, and competition, both buyers and sellers in Anderson County can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help connecting with an experienced local agent who understands the latest trends.
Anderson County offers residents a welcoming, close-knit community with solid local services, strong schools, affordable living, and ample opportunities for outdoor recreation and family life.
Anderson County stands out from nearby Smith County and Cherokee County with a quieter, more tradition‑rooted pace anchored by Palestine and its historic downtown. Wide stretches of pine forest, family ranches, and small communities like Elkhart and Frankston give the area a distinctly local identity where schools, Friday night games, and church events still shape the weekly calendar.
Residents enjoy quick access to outdoor recreation at Davey Dogwood Park, the seasonal Texas State Railroad excursions from Texas State Railroad Palestine Depot, and lake time at Lake Palestine. Families value community resources like Palestine Independent School District, Trinity Valley Community College Palestine campus, and the Palestine Public Library, which help keep the county closely connected despite its rural feel.
The housing mix ranges from restored early‑1900s homes near the Palestine Main Street District to acreage properties and newer construction on the edges of town. Inventory can shift quickly, especially for well‑kept homes with land or properties near major routes that connect to Tyler.
Whether you are planning a first purchase, upsizing for more space, or preparing to list a long‑owned family home, timing and preparation are key in Anderson County’s evolving market. Agent Pronto can connect both buyers and sellers with a local real estate professional who understands these community rhythms and can help you move at the right moment.

“Mr. Bell was exceptional through this entire home buying process. I can’t thank him enough for everything that he did. He always reassured me and stayed positive when I was feeling anxious about anything. He was patient and attentive to my needs. Would definitely recommend!”
“Leslie went above and beyond to help us relocate back to Texas. She made the process less stressful!!”
“I first met Ms. Perez back when I was in junior high—she was my substitute teacher for years, and even then, you could tell how much she truly cared about her students. What’s even more special is that she stayed in touch over the years, always treating me and my sister like we were her own. She has been there for so many important moments in my life—graduating high school, college, getting married, and now helping my husband and me find our very first home. This experience was so much more than just a transaction to her, and she proved that every step of the way. Maria doesn’t just help you buy a home—she builds real, lasting relationships. If you didn’t know her before the process, you definitely will after. And what means the most is that her support doesn’t end once everything is finalized—she continues to show up long after. Thank you, Maria, for not only being an incredible realtor but for being such a meaningful part of my life all these years. I truly couldn’t have made such a big purchase with anyone else”
“James Exum was absolutely fantastic. His RE knowledge of the area and his willingness to go the extra mile for us was instrumental in my wife and I finding the perfect property.”
“Janet was amazing to work with! She was patient, responsive, and truly cared about helping us find the perfect home. The whole process was smooth from start to finish, and her knowledge and guidance made everything less stressful. Highly recommend!”

He was always available to answer questions helped us transition into our new home. He got us in touch with other professionals in fields to help us out as well that he knew and trusted, and they were also very helpful.”
“Robert had a unique tasking with helping out my family. In order to help out and accomplish what Robert was able to, one had to have the upmost integrity. Throughout the entire process we felt welcomed, understood, and taken care of. Thank you for making moving to Mabank such a pleasurable experience! 10/10 realtor I would recommend!”
“She is amazing, I can't recommend Claire enough! I saw the home on Zillow and lived far away and couldn't see it in person in the short term. I contacted Claire who immediately gave the run through of the local market and explained what to watch out for. I reached out a few days later asking if she could schedule a virtual tour and she responded immediately and a couple of hours later she was at the property showing me everything in a virtual tour. She has high standards and lets you know what to pay attention to. I liked the home and was concerned that it won't be on the market for too long, but also couldn't pull the trigger since I haven't seen in person. Claire suggested making an offer with an option period while I arrange to visit the property which was a perfect solution. Additionally, Claire arranged 2 other showings for me and my wife for the property, and even showed us nearby properties we wanted to look at as a comparison. As a first time home buyer, she made it super easy to navigate the process, and as the cherry on top, she offered to mail me the keys once we closed. The process was VERY smooth, with absolutely no hiccups. Thank you Claire!”
“Lisa Alston has knowledge and an eye for detail that will ensure you are getting a quality investment. She really will support your best interest. The ease of the process was comforting. Highly recommend.”
“This was my first time buying a home, Cherri did great at providing available properties. Her sweet personality and expertise eased the nervousness we had. Areas for improvement is explaining how fast everything goes once we made an offer and it was accepted. We were over whelmed at times since we were not expecting so much that had to be done. I did love the options she had for help with lenders, and other services needed. Overall, I highly recommend Cherri. Thank you once again.”
“Donnell went beyond expectations. She checked on my property to make sure things were in order. Her husband even helped to fix things on the property. She advised me to take certain actions to bring more views to my property. I am so appreciative for all of her help.”
“Karl was absolutely AMAZING! He made the whole process so easy, from start to finish. We were unexpectedly put on a time crunch but Karl made sure to work with us to find our dream home and was always available to answer any questions we had. We will definitely use him for any future realty needs!”
“Michael was definitely the realtor for us. We needed someone experienced in agricultural land sales ( this he knows very well). It was a long and crazy adventure. He hung in there with us and we found our place and someone we consider a friend. I would recommend Michael to anyone.”
“I have known Cindy for some time. I had no hesitation in selecting Cindy for our home search. I knew she would put forth her greatest effort and we were not disappointed and greatly pleased with the hard work and commitment she presented in the search for our new home. Cindy did a great job!”

“Erin Mahoney is a fantastic realtor. She helped me buy my home in 2015 and sold it for me in 2019. Erin had to come to the house every time someone wanted to view property, so she could take care of my dogs while they looked around. She had a relationship with me and my dogs :-)”
