Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Ellis County real estate market. *
May 2026
Monthly data for the latest available year.
Monthly supply and activity totals for the latest available year.
Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (May 2026).
Ellis County is currently tilted toward sellers, with a market gauge of 42 indicating conditions that still favor owners over buyers. Months of supply sit at 3.8, well below the Texas average of 5.3, showing relatively tighter inventory locally. Active listings are down about 9% from last year, which helps explain why leverage leans to the selling side.
Prices are holding firm rather than surging. The typical home value is around $413,000 and is nearly flat year over year, while the median list price has climbed about 6% over the same period, suggesting sellers are testing higher asking prices. At the same time, the share of homes selling above list has risen to 16.5%, and the average sale-to-list ratio is just under 99%, indicating buyers often come close to what sellers are asking.
Activity has picked up as the year has progressed. Homes sold in May increased nearly 13% from a year ago, and median days on market have dropped to 59, down sharply from earlier in the year, signaling that well-priced homes are moving faster. With pending sales up year over year and inventory tighter than the state overall, understanding neighborhood-level trends is crucial. Buyers who want to compete effectively and sellers who want to price strategically can both benefit from Agent Pronto’s help in finding the right local real estate agent.
Ellis County offers residents a welcoming, community-focused lifestyle with strong schools, diverse job opportunities, ample outdoor recreation, and a collaborative spirit that blends growth with small-town charm.
Ellis County offers a distinct balance of small‑town identity and easy access to big‑city opportunity that sets it apart from nearby urban options. Communities like Waxahachie, Ennis, and Midlothian keep a strong local character, with historic downtowns, Friday night lights, and community traditions that longtime residents and newcomers share quickly.
Weekend life often revolves around outdoor space and local events. Families head to Getzendaner Park along the Waxahachie Creek Hike & Bike Trail, while baseball and soccer fields stay active across the county. In Ennis, the Bluebonnet Trails and annual festival highlight wildflower season and draw visitors from all over North Texas. Cultural spots like the Ellis County Museum on the courthouse square help preserve the area’s story.
Daily convenience is strong too. Residents appreciate local schools such as Midlothian ISD and a growing mix of restaurants, coffee shops, and services. Quick connections to Dallas County and Tarrant County broaden job options while allowing people to return home to quieter streets and familiar faces.
With Ellis County growing rapidly, timing and preparation matter. Whether you are selling a longtime family property or planning a move into your first home here, having the right guidance on pricing, neighborhoods, and competition is crucial. Agent Pronto connects both buyers and sellers with agents who understand Ellis County’s market and its close‑knit communities.

“Ann Weaver went far beyond our expectations. After recent previous experiences with other agents I was beginning to believe someone as great as her was only a fantasy. Seriously. My wife and I were so happy to have found her from the beginning to the end of our time with her. It was amazing seeing how resourceful and aggressive she was for us. She made it look easy.”
“The entire process went so smoothly. We first had a meeting because we needed to see where we stood in the market and what we needed to get done before listing. It took us a while to get to the listing point but we had regular check ins ready to answer any of our questions. The house was not even on the market a full week before we had accepted an offer. We could not have asked for a better sales team. Everything went absolutely perfectly! 100% recommend to anyone ready to sell or purchase.”
“Jamie was such a great leader through the process! I was personally a bit overwhelmed and anxious about buying my first home but Jamie helped keep things fun and exciting. Having an additional point of contact on her team with Tiya was so helpful to feel like a had a full team working towards my best interests. Definitely would recommend.”
“Leslie Crittenden went above and beyond to make sure our house sold quickly and for a great price. She staged our empty home with decorator items so the buyers could see how it might look if lived in. Everything she brought was bright and cheery and homey. Her marketing photos and video were exceptional. She walked us through how to fill out all the paperwork, giving advice where needed. She always kept us informed as we went through the process. She advised us on negotiations and fought for a higher appraisal. She “went to bat” for us! She was very compassionate as we emotionally let go of the house we had lived in for 38 years. We were very pleased with her professionalism and extensive knowledge of the selling process. We always felt comfortable with Leslie. She is funny and outgoing, a great listener, encouraging, generous, and kind. It was a pleasure working with her! We would give Leslie the highest recommendation possible.”
“Cassandra was a true professional. She always responded in a timely manner and was willing to meet us anytime, anywhere in our quest for the perfect house.

Shellin was fun to work with, attentive, extremely responsive (for the many questions we had throughout the process), and truly advocated for us and our wants/needs out of a home! The Miller Family highly recommends using Shellin Duke for your realty needs!”

“I’ve sold a few houses along the way but this sale had new complications. It was out of state and had belonged to my Aunt who passed away last summer. Every part of this deal had to be handled over the phone, text or email. Meredith Ruiz was a true professional. She was punctual and knowledgeable along every step of the process. She also was a pleasure to speak with. She almost always answered the phone and was accessible at all times. Her attitude and great communication were exactly what I needed to get the house sold. I would recommend her to anyone and if I am ever in Texas again I would bring her more business. Thanks Meredith.”
“Sandi was always professional, easy to talk to and always accessible. She made the whole process easy and she kept me informed of what was going on. I would recommend her to someone looking for a realtor.”
