Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Starr County real estate market. *
April 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 (Apr 2026).
Inventory in Starr County is tilted toward buyers right now, with about eight months of supply on the market in April and a buyer’s market reading overall. Active listings inched up slightly from last month, while homes sold dipped and pending sales dropped by about half. New listings, however, moved higher both month over month and year over year, adding fresh options for shoppers.
Sales activity has been volatile over the past year, with the number of homes sold in April rising sharply compared with a year earlier even as monthly totals pulled back from March. Homes are taking longer to go under contract, with the median days on market stretching to roughly four months, much slower than many parts of Texas where supply is lower. This slower pace, combined with rising new listings, gives buyers more time and leverage to evaluate properties and negotiate.
Pricing is adjusting to these inventory and demand shifts. The typical home value in Starr County is around the mid-$200,000s and has held roughly flat compared with last year, but median list prices have fallen significantly year over year, signaling that sellers are trimming expectations to meet the market. Only a minority of homes are selling above list price, and the average sale-to-list ratio sits in the mid-90s, pointing to modest discounts at closing. In this kind of evolving environment, both buyers and sellers can benefit from an Agent Pronto–recommended real estate agent who understands local conditions and can guide each side through the process.
Starr County offers its residents a warm, family-friendly community with rich cultural heritage, welcoming neighborhoods, and growing opportunities in outdoor recreation, education, and small-business development.
Starr County offers a distinct sense of place compared with larger, faster growing neighbors like Hidalgo County. Here, communities such as Rio Grande City and Roma hold onto longstanding traditions while gradually adding new retail, dining, and housing options. Daily life often centers on family, schools, and celebrations that highlight the county’s deep borderland heritage.
Residents enjoy local landmarks like the historic district in Rio Grande City, the riverfront views near Roma, and outdoor time at Falcon State Park. Cultural and community events, often hosted around downtown plazas or school campuses, help maintain close ties among neighbors. The Rio Grande City Consolidated Independent School District and Roma Independent School District are central to community pride and Friday night gatherings.
Everyday conveniences are complemented by regional access to larger employment and shopping corridors along US 83, with easy trips toward Laredo or deeper into the Rio Grande Valley. Local resources like the Starr County Memorial Hospital and the Rio Grande City Public Library support both long time residents and newcomers.

“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.”

She was always available to answer questions, provide updates, and offer practical solutions whenever issues arose.
