“Amy Patton assisted our church in the sale of our parsonage. In our initial meetings, she came across as a "Professional." We had contacted another Realtor at a very successful brokerage, but that person was, it seemed, a bit too successful, in that she set up an appointment, but failed to show, with no communication as to why, both before and after. Communication is the key, and that particular agent failed miserably. Amy Patton, throughout the entire process, never failed to communicate, responding to questions, situations, and, in general, shepherding our flock through the process flawlessly. There were a couple of hiccups that she took in stride, responded to and kept those who needed to know in the loop, As for other aspects of the sale, pricing, negotiations, clientele, etc., Amy was nearly impeccable, which was to be expected from an agent of her abilities and knowledge. It would be impossible to find a better Realtor to serve our needs.”

Year over year, Central Southwest’s typical home value has climbed 8.15 percent to about $280,000, even as the broader Houston city value sits higher at roughly $341,000 and has edged down 3.94 percent. Inventory has tightened compared with last year, with a 7.01 percent drop in available homes and a 15.87 percent decline in new listings, signaling fewer options for buyers than a year ago.
In February 2026, homes were typically listed around $299,000, while the typical home value held steady month to month at $280,000. Homes spent a median of 71 days on the market, up sharply from last year with a 44.9 percent increase, and about 8.26 percent of sales closed above list price with an average sale-to-list ratio near 0.94.
Looking to next month, projections point to a slight dip in the median list price to about $297,250 and a modest pullback in inventory to around 135 homes, keeping conditions tilted toward sellers, consistent with a seller’s market gauge of 10. With 159 new listings and 147 pending sales in the latest month plus a 3.52 percent annual rise in pending sales, activity is steady even as supply tightens. Buyers who want to navigate limited choices and sellers aiming to price correctly in this environment can both benefit from Agent Pronto helping them find an agent who knows Central Southwest well.
Market gauge is calculated based on the the number of active listings divided by home sales over the most recently available reporting period.
