Settegast’s rolling three-month data shows a dramatic jump in typical home values compared with last year, with prices up more than three-quarters year over year. At the same time, the share of homes selling above list has climbed, indicating stronger demand than a year ago. Inventory has actually tightened over the past year, even as prices have surged.
Looking at the latest rolling period through July 2026, the typical home value sits around $405,000, notably higher than the broader Houston average of about $360,000. Buyers are seeing a median list price closer to $282,000, and homes are taking a median of 48 days to go under contract, reflecting a slower pace than last summer’s very fast sales. Months of supply is at 5.9, higher than Houston’s 5 months, which points to more options for buyers even though the area is still categorized as a seller’s market.
Sales activity in Settegast has held relatively steady in this three-month window, with homes sold up slightly from a year ago but new listings and pending sales trending lower. A growing share of properties sell at or above asking price, while the average sale-to-list ratio hovers just under 100 percent, suggesting sellers are generally achieving their pricing goals.
