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.
