Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Rusk County real estate market. *
September 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 (Sep 2026).
Rusk County currently leans toward buyers, with the market gauge signaling a buyer’s market and inventory levels well above balance. Months of supply sit at 7.2, noticeably higher than the statewide 5.7 months in Texas, giving buyers more choices and softening upward pressure on prices.
Pricing trends show a mix of stability and adjustment. While the typical home value has dipped about 2 percent year over year to around $238,000 and the average sale-to-list ratio has edged just under 100 percent, the median list price has climbed more than 13 percent over the past year, indicating sellers are still testing higher asking prices.
Activity on the ground reflects both increased options and a slower sales pace compared with last year. Active listings are up roughly 14 percent year over year and new listings have surged more than 66 percent, even as homes sold have fallen nearly 30 percent and days on market have dropped to 52, about 25 percent faster than a year ago. Buyers and sellers who want to navigate these crosscurrents can turn to Agent Pronto to connect with a local agent who understands Rusk County’s shifting market dynamics.

“Raquel was great to work with, she helped us while we were on a very limited time frame having flown in out of state to find our retirement home, and what home purchase can be more important for a couple than their proverbial last one, and looking back now we realized that of all the homes we asked her to show us, we decided on the one she suggested we go look at. She clearly exceeded our expectations, we would not have wanted to do this without her.”

I felt like I was in good hands! The house hit the market on a Friday evening and was under contract at the end of the weekend. As residents of another state, Lindsey took the ball from us and handled everything on our behalf so that we did not have to travel back to Texas. We were able to handle everything remotely. I could not have asked for a better experience and would not hesitate to work with her again! Thanks, Lindsey!”
“Working with Diane was great, she did an awesome job. This sale would not have happened without her hard work and I was completely satisfied with the service.”

I was not an easy client and very picky and she was such a sweetheart the whole time and made our move a lot less stressful.
