Latest Monthly Snapshot
September 2026
Monthly Pricing Trends for Howard County
Monthly data for the latest available year.
Monthly Inventory and Sales Activity for Howard County
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 (Sep 2026).
Howard County is currently rated a strong buyer's market. Inventory is very high and homes are taking some time to move. Conditions heavily favor buyers who have options and leverage.
Several indicators explain why the market tilts this way right now. Months of supply has surged to about 200 months, far above the Texas average of 5.7 months, signaling a large imbalance between listings and closed sales. Active listings are up more than 10 percent month over month and roughly 14 percent year over year, while pending sales have dropped by about half since last month and are down more than 50 percent compared with a year ago.
Pricing trends show some volatility in a relatively low-sales environment. The typical home value is down more than 20 percent year over year, and the median list price has fallen at a similar pace over the same period, though the average sale-to-list ratio sits just under 100 percent. Median days on market has recently fallen to under a month after several months of much longer timelines, suggesting motivated sellers are adjusting to current conditions. With more supply, fewer contracts, and shifting prices, both buyers and sellers can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help in finding an agent who understands this complex local market.
Learn more about what Howard County has to offer.
Howard County offers residents a close-knit community with rural charm, accessible local services, abundant outdoor recreation, and opportunities to build a fulfilling life.
Howard County stands out in West Texas for its mix of deep oilfield roots and tight community ties, offering a more close-knit feel than larger nearby hubs like Midland and Odessa. Centered around Big Spring, the county blends working-class resilience with expanding amenities that appeal to longtime residents and new arrivals alike.
Outdoor life is a major draw. Families gather at Big Spring State Park for canyon views, walking trails, and sweeping sunsets, while Comanche Trail Park offers fishing, playgrounds, and disc golf around the spring-fed lake. The City of Big Spring supports a full calendar of events, from holiday festivals to youth sports, that help newcomers quickly feel part of the community.
Education and culture add another layer of appeal. Howard College offers local higher education and workforce programs, and the Heritage Museum of Big Spring showcases ranching, rail, and military history that still shape daily life. Neighborhoods range from established streets near the historic downtown to newer construction on the edges of town, giving buyers a variety of price points and styles.
Whether you are weighing a move to Howard County or preparing to sell, timing and preparation matter in a market tied closely to regional energy trends. Agent Pronto can connect both buyers and sellers with a local real estate professional who understands these cycles and how to navigate them.

“I can’t say enough good things about Sandra Hall. She was absolutely amazing from start to finish. Our home had some significant issues going into the sale, including foundation work and a roof that needed to be replaced. As a military family living remotely, we couldn’t be there to handle any of it ourselves. Sandra stepped in and coordinated with several contractors, handling the scheduling and making sure everything was done so our home was ready to go on the market. She was incredibly reliable and always reachable by phone, and her patience and knowledge made a stressful process so much easier. Honestly, I don’t know if our house would have sold as quickly as it did without her. I wholeheartedly recommend Sandra to anyone looking to sell their home.”
“Kris stuck with us for... literally... 6 years. She never made us feel pressured or made us feel like a burden or that we were wasting her time. To know we had someone in our corner who was rooting for us - but at our pace - was a blessing. I would unhesitatingly recommend her to family and friends at any opportunity. When we finally found the right house, Kris went out of her way to click with the seller's agent and create a win-win for all parties. Our desired outcome became her priority and, ultimately, the best compliment a realtor can ever receive is to know they helped their clients get the house they wanted. And for making our dream a reality, Kris receives two very enthusiastic thumbs up!”
“Leslie went above and beyond to help us relocate back to Texas. She made the process less stressful!!”
“Ann had her work cut out for her in dealing with our mortgage company because they were very unresponsive and she had to chase them for weeks. She was a fighter for us an it was super appreciated.”
“Working with Kathy Brinkley was one of the best experiences I have ever had selling a home. My previous realtor spent an entire year trying to sell my house without success, blaming the slow market. When I shared my experience with Kathy, she took it as a challenge and sold my house in just three months! Her communication was excellent, and she kept me informed throughout the entire process, making everything smooth and stress-free. Kathy is knowledgeable, professional, dedicated, and truly understands the real estate market. Instead of making excuses, she finds solutions and delivers results. I am incredibly grateful for her hard work and would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. If you want a trustworthy realtor who goes the extra mile, Kathy Brinkley is the one to choose!”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better realtor! Buying my first home was such a special milestone, and I’m incredibly grateful to have had her by my side throughout the entire journey. She was attentive, patient, and extremely knowledgeable, always taking the time to listen to my needs, answer my questions, and make sure I felt comfortable with every decision. She truly went above and beyond to make the entire process as smooth and stress-free as possible. It was clear that she genuinely cared about my best interests and wanted to help me find the right home. Having someone so supportive, trustworthy, and dedicated made all the difference in such an important chapter of my life. I’m so thankful for all her hard work and for helping make my dream of becoming a homeowner a reality! I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking to buy a home. You’ll be in great hands!”
“Lynn helped us with the sale of our first home and purchasing a new build. She was extremely professional, and educated us along the way, as purchasing within a builder neighborhood was a new experience for us. We love working with Lynn and will continue to do so! We have recommended her over and over again to friends!”
“Todd put in a lot of effort to get all the house repairs done and get the house staged for showings. He held open houses every week and helped to secure a very competitive offer in a tough market! Todd was very easy to work with and even gave me a discount on the fees. Highly recommend Todd!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better real estate agent than Christopher Beal! From the very beginning to the day we closed on our new home, Christopher demonstrated an exceptional level of professionalism, dedication, honesty, and genuine care for our family. Relocating from South Dakota to Texas and purchasing a home was a major milestone for our family, and Christopher helped make what could have been an overwhelming experience feel smooth and manageable. His knowledge of the real estate market, attention to detail, outstanding communication, and willingness to go above and beyond gave us confidence throughout the entire process. What truly sets Christopher apart is that he doesn’t treat his clients like just another transaction. He genuinely cares about the people and families he represents. He was patient, approachable, and always willing to answer questions, address concerns, and ensure we understood every step of the way.”
“We have now sold two homes and bought two homes in the last 7 years with Sarah Padgett and her team and we would use her again if the time comes. She's thorough, kind, witty and always responsive to our questions, texts or emails. Thanks again, Sarah!”
“Brandon was so exceptional when it came to showing up during this process. It was a long drawn out process but he was definitely encouraging and so positive.”
“I could not have received better service and professionalism anywhere else. Brittney Lawrence brought an immense amount of knowledge to the table. She was organized, timely and very knowledgeable through the entire process. She put me at ease and took care of every detail. She also kept me updated and helped guide me every step of the way, from listing my home to closing. I would definitely use her and the Chavez Team again.”
“We have had nick as our agent to both buy a home and sell a home. I can say he was very knowledgeable in BOTH areas of a deal. We were very fortunate to have Nick as our realtor! He was patient and encouraging. We recommend him 1000%!”
“Pleasure working with her”
“Mickey is the best Thank you”
“Working with Brent was great! He helped us find an amazing home within our budget. He was great with communication, answered all the questions we had as first time home buyers, and made the process very easy. We would definitely recommend him!”
“Loved working with her! She was very knowledgeable and helpful. We would definitely recommend her to anyone that asks for an excellent realtor.”
“We had a great experience working with Nichelle Boyland as our real estate agent. She was professional, responsive, knowledgeable, and genuinely committed to helping us throughout the entire home-buying process. Nichelle made sure our questions were answered, kept us informed, and helped make what can be a stressful process much easier. We truly appreciate her dedication and would highly recommend Nichelle to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy real estate agent.”
“I am a local general contractor and I have worked with Justin on multiple projects. He is always very easy to communicate with and get ahold of. I highly recommended Justin.”
