Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026).
Matagorda County currently leans toward a buyer’s market, with a market gauge reading of 81 and nearly nine months of supply available. Homes are taking a long time to sell, with a median of 154 days on market. A relatively small share of properties, just under 7 percent, are closing above the list price, which signals that buyers have room to negotiate.
Pricing shows some mixed signals. The typical home value is a bit lower than a year ago, but the median list price has jumped strongly year over year, rising much faster than the statewide trend. Even with these higher asking prices, the average sale-to-list ratio sits just under 97 percent, indicating that final sale prices often come in below what sellers initially ask. Compared with Texas overall, Matagorda County’s home values are lower while inventory is higher, giving buyers in this area more options than the state average.
Sales activity has picked up compared with last year, with homes sold up over 20 percent year over year even as new listings have remained fairly steady. Pending sales, however, are down from a year ago, suggesting some softening in near-term demand despite more closings this month. With abundant inventory and long marketing times, sellers need strong pricing and marketing strategies, while buyers can take more time to evaluate options, and Agent Pronto can help both buyers and sellers connect with the right local real estate agent for these conditions.
Learn more about what Matagorda County has to offer.
Matagorda County offers residents a welcoming community, abundant outdoor recreation, and diverse opportunities in agriculture, energy, and local business, contributing to a high quality of life.
Matagorda County offers a quieter, more authentic coastal experience than larger nearby destinations like Houston or Galveston, with a strong sense of community that still feels connected to major job centers. From the wide beaches of Matagorda Bay Nature Park to the fishing piers along the Colorado River, outdoor life is central to daily living.
Bay City serves as the county seat and a practical hub, with local events at the Bay City Civic Center and family programs at the Bay City Public Library. Nearby Palacios offers waterfront dining and a strong shrimping heritage, while Matagorda attracts anglers and weekend residents seeking bay and beach access. Parks like Le Tulle Park and South Bay Marina support boating, picnics, and youth sports.
Local schools, including Bay City ISD and Palacios ISD, help anchor long term residents, while ongoing industrial and port activity along the Gulf Coast draws new workers and investors. Housing ranges from established in town neighborhoods in Bay City to waterfront properties and rural acreage.
Whether you are planning a first purchase, moving for work, or considering selling a long held family home, timing and preparation are crucial in this coastal market.

“Nick has sold 2 houses for us in the past 5 years. The most recent house went under contract within 2 days of listing. He has the best marketing, with behind the scenes marketing to other agents. He uses a great photographer that makes your house look like a layout for House Beautiful! He seems to be the hardest working guy in the biz, but also always has time to respond to a call or text. He is a really good guy. HE GETS THE JOB DONE. Out of all the R/E agents we have worked with in the past, Nick has always exceeded our expectations. If you are in the market to sell a house, call Nick first.”

“I was moving for a work relocation and needed to find a house that suited our needs ASAP. Kelly made some recommendations and then listened to our feedback to help us find the best house for us on the market. She was available for our first visit from out of state the weekend after we were refferred which was of great help to us. She was very well organized and always found items both good and bad to point out about the houses that we hadnt noticed. She also managed all of our inspections since we couldnt be present (out of state). We were able to view and purchase the house in time to have our house for my move by date and not have to get an apartment just to start work.”
