Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026 - Sep 2026).
Inventory in MLK is relatively high, with 94 active listings in this rolling three-month view and a months-of-supply figure of 7. Buyer activity has strengthened, as homes sold are up about 19 percent year over year and pending sales are up nearly 30 percent. New listings also increased roughly 18 percent from a year ago, suggesting more owners are testing the market even as options for buyers remain plentiful.
Prices are adjusting slowly in response to these conditions. The typical home value of about $550,000 is down a little under 2 percent compared with the same period last year, and the median list price is also slightly lower year over year. Sellers are conceding somewhat on pricing, with the average sale-to-list ratio around 97 percent and only about 5 percent of homes selling above asking.
Homes in MLK are taking longer to go under contract, with the median days on market rising to 77, up modestly from a year ago and noticeably slower than some prior periods. Compared with the broader Austin market, MLK’s home values are slightly higher while inventory is just a bit looser than the city’s roughly six months of supply. These shifts point to more negotiation room for buyers and a need for sharper pricing strategies for sellers, and Agent Pronto can connect both buyers and sellers with a local agent who understands these trends.

“Our second home with Daryl caring for the sale. We have great comfort that he cared for our needs and managed the tough parts of the transaction on our behalf. He allowed us to focus on our move here from out of state. Highly recommend him!”

“Philip did a fantastic job managing the sale of our home in Round Rock Tx . He went above and beyond working to close the sale and helped us with some on-site issues because we live out of town. I would use Philip again and I would highly recommend him to anyone wanting to sell or buy a home.”

“I was very impressed with Tracy Lynn's commitment to innovation in helping me buy my first home, and my experience in process optimization fit perfectly with her goals of helping me and understanding exactly what I was looking for and what we liked. Thank you so much, Tracy Lynn, for helping me buy my first house!”

“Stephanie was absolutely amazing to work with. From the very beginning she made the entire home-buying process smooth, stress-free, and enjoyable. She was always professional, patient, and incredibly knowledgeable, making sure every question I had was answered right away. Stephanie went above and beyond to ensure I felt comfortable and confident with every decision.”
Keller Williams
“Tyon is an outstanding realtor and grateful and thankful that we got to work with him. I've been trying to sell my home for almost 2 years before working with him and out of the realtors that I've had, he did the most for us. He is all about his clients and makes sure to have their best interests at heart. He helped us with any repairs that could be done at the house so there wasn't any extra expense on our end, plus he ripped out the carpet for us so we could get it replaced. For things he couldn't do himself, we was always trying to find the least expensive solution for it. He was very knowledgeable in his field and I couldn't have asked for a better person to help us get our house sold!”
eXp Realty
“Daniel Clark found us our dream home, and we couldn't be more satisfied with his performance as our realtor. Dan walked us through the process of buying our first home and we will use him again in the future.”

“I loved working with David! Every time me or my soon to be wife had any questions he was so fast with responding and giving us a detailed explanation of everything. And he did a great job negotiating with the seller.”

“Thank you so much for referring us to John Mick. We are grateful to John for his hard work, patience, and expertise selling my sister's house. She could not have done this without John's extraordinary talent, as so many challenges to sell/buy properties this year.”

“My wife and I were blessed to be paired with Richard Doyle as our realtor. He was a tremendous help throughout the entire process. I would highly recommend him to anyone for their home buying needs!”
United Real Estate Austin
“I am so glad that I used Agent Pronto to connect with several Realtors (out of state) and figure out what qualities in a real estate professional were most important to me. Through the process I connected with my lifeline, Celine Crestin, who is a dream to work with. She helped me navigate a difficult market with over 20 offers submitted, a few accepted/terminated due to inspections, and finally my ideal investment property. She had to solve problems, think quickly and critically, and I trusted her advice completely when I wondered if things were overpriced, unreasonable, or too good to be true. I am so lucky to have had the chance to work with her.”
Compass RE Texas | Realty Reimagined Group
“Glad we ended up with the property, despite some bumps in the road which Shila handled well.”

“Vanessa Brown was my Realtor, and she is very personable. I felt that she knew exactly what I was looking for in a home. She was always courteous and willing to go the extra mile. It was a great experience working with her. When I hear of someone looking for a home, I will make sure to tell them about Vanessa.”
