Keller Williams Realty Northeast Houston strives to bring you the most current Houston housing market information so you can make the best decision on the buying and / or selling of your home.
August 2015 Houston Housing Market – Update
August sales of single-family homes were comparable to August 2014 in the Houston housing market. Homes priced between $150,000 and $500,000 saw a moderate rise in sales. Inventory levels rose slightly to 3.4 months, meaning if no other homes were listed, the homes on the market right now would be depleted in 3.5 months. Houston housing inventories are well below the 4.8 month national average, supporting a strong Houston housing market.
Home prices reached record high levels in August. The average single-family home sales price rose 2.9% over last year to just over $282,000. August continued to show quick home sale turnaround; 45 days to a sale on average. All indicators point to a more ‘normalized’ Houston housing market, supported by low inventory levels, high demand, and a diverse Houston economy.
