Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Lavaca 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).
Inventory in Lavaca County has been edging up, with active listings in May at 65 and slightly higher than a year ago, while new listings have fallen nearly a quarter year over year. Pending sales, however, have surged more than 60 percent from last month and are up sharply from last year, signaling more homes moving toward closing even as overall supply sits at 6.4 months, above the statewide 5.3 months.
Pricing has been adjusting to these conditions, with the typical home value down more than 25 percent from a year ago and the median list price also a bit lower than last year. Few signs of bidding wars are evident, as none of the recent sales closed above list price and the average sale-to-list ratio sits just under 100 percent.
Timing has become a bigger factor, with the median days on market stretching to 116 days, dramatically longer than both last month and last year. While Lavaca County’s prices remain below the Texas median sale price of about $344,000, the slower pace and higher supply point to a more neutral environment for negotiations. Buyers and sellers who want to navigate this shifting landscape can turn to Agent Pronto to connect with a local agent who understands these trends and how they affect their goals.

“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 home-buying process seemed so intimidating, but once we started working with Aundrea Hartzog, all our worries disappeared. The time, attention to detail, and dedication she showed throughout the entire process were incredible. She made everything so easy, and whenever we had questions, she responded quickly and with exceptional knowledge. We could not have asked for a better realtor and would recommend her time and time again to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. The friendly and calming demeanor she brought to every step of the process was a tremendous help to my wife and me. She left no stone unturned, taking the time to explain everything in a way that we could truly understand. That level of commitment, communication, and professionalism cannot be overstated. Aundrea went above and beyond for us, and we could not be happier with how everything turned out.”
“Alan is the best hard working, knowledgeable, helpful, he found the perfect house we were looking for on my budget, and taught me a lot about the home buying process. Very greatful that we got linked to him he truly does have buyers best interest in mind at all times always there when you have a question.”
“Jamie Rodriguez negotiated several offers only for the buyer to change their minds but hung in with us till we found the right buyer”
“Jannine Osborne is very knowlegable in all aspects of the Real Estate process. An expert in coastal and second homes and all the unique steps involved in those type of properties.”
“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.”
“We had one day to come into town to find a home. Kim lined up all the homesthat matched our requirement prior to our visit to go through and narrow down. The day of the trip, Kim had all the house appointments lined up and within 4 hours we had found our home. We would highly recommend Kim and if we ever need to sell or buy again in the Houston area we will use here again.”
“Lynn is extremely professional and great to work with. She considers all aspects of the transaction to help get what we want. She has incredible industry experience and that helps set her above the bar. She is kind and we can't thank her enough for going above and beyond for us. We will 100% use Lynn for any future transactions!”
“Great person to work with.”
“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.”
“From beginning to end Julie was amazing and exceeded our expectations. We were moving to Texas from Virginia so her local and state knowledge was invaluable. She presented a good variety of homes that fit our needs in the areas we were interested in and when we chose one she was on top of everything particularly keeping the momentum going with a less responsive seller/seller agent and enabling us to close in a timely manner and at a good price for the area we chose. We would highly recommend Julie to anyone who wants a smooth home buying/selling experience, she is the best we have experienced and we have bought and sold a few houses over the years. Thank you Julie, we love our new home.”
“Dear Justin, dealing with you is a wonderful experience defined by honesty and integrity; I wish you the best of luck and success.”
“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.”
“Amazing service, kept me updated at all times and went out of her way to help me get through the process.”
“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. I truly respect the job she did and the way in which she handled herself throughout the process. We are truly grateful for her hard work and dedication.”
“Meaghan has worked with us for a very long time. We have used her services for buying and selling properties. She was so patient, always willing to go above and beyond, and step in when advice was needed. I would strongly recommend her services to anyone needing a realtor!”

“Carl Turner did such an amazing job going over and beyond what one would expect in a great realtor. He is very attentive, professional, courteous, patient, adaptable, and clearly knows how to find what his clients are looking for and more. He treated our new home as if it were his own and his communication was impeccable. Our family HIGHLY recommends his services and we look forward to working with him on the sell of our other property.”
“My realtor, Sandra Hall, was absolutely awesome! She sold my home in just seven days and seamlessly transitioned me into a fantastic new one incredibly fast. Sandra made sure I got everything I needed and everything I wanted out of both transactions.

I would definitely recommend Sandra to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!”
