Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Wharton 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 Wharton County has tightened recently, with active listings down about 9 percent from last month and more than 20 percent lower than a year ago. New listings have fallen even faster, dropping nearly half year over year, which means fewer fresh options coming to market. Contract activity is softer than last year, as homes sold are down about 27 percent and pending sales are down more than 40 percent.
Prices are adjusting in response to these shifts. The typical home value has dipped slightly, down about 2 percent from last year and more than 8 percent from April, while the median list price is still up a bit year over year. Homes are moving through the market more quickly than earlier in the year, with median days on market falling sharply from April’s 121 days to about 53 days in May.
Supply has eased back from winter highs, now sitting near 5.1 months, which is close to the 5.3 months seen across Texas but still reflects a buyer-leaning market locally. Even so, sellers are seeing firmer pricing power than a few months ago, with the share of homes selling above list rising and the average sale-to-list ratio improving to just over 97 percent. Buyers and sellers who want to navigate these mixed signals can turn to Agent Pronto to connect with a local real estate agent who understands the Wharton County market.
Wharton County offers residents a warm, connected community with affordable housing, solid schools, ample outdoor recreation, and growing local businesses, all supporting a balanced, family-friendly lifestyle.
Wharton County offers a distinct small‑town feel that many nearby Houston suburbs cannot match, with open skies, working farms, and tight community networks. Communities like Wharton, El Campo, and East Bernard blend long established neighborhoods with new residential development, giving buyers options from historic bungalows near the Wharton County Courthouse to newer homes closer to schools and shopping.
Local life revolves around Friday night lights at El Campo High School, weekend youth sports, and events at the Wharton Civic Center. Residents enjoy the relaxed pace while still having convenient access to Houston and Sugar Land for work and entertainment. Outdoor enthusiasts appreciate fishing and paddling on the Colorado River and family outings at Friendship Park or Riverfront Park.
Dining ranges from classic Tex Mex and barbecue spots in El Campo’s commercial corridors to local favorites in downtown Wharton, with an emphasis on family owned restaurants and cafés. With agriculture, energy, and medical sectors nearby, the area attracts both lifelong residents and newcomers looking for affordability and space.
In a market where inventory and prices can change quickly from town to town, timing and preparation matter. Whether you are selling a longtime family home or buying your first house in Wharton County, Agent Pronto connects you with a knowledgeable local agent who can guide you from planning through closing.
