Median prices rose in the majority of Texas metros in 2025 but declined in the four largest markets, leading to a statewide median price ($335,000) down 1.2% from the previous year, according to the 2025 Texas Real Estate Year in Review report by Texas REALTORS®. Prices were higher in 14 metros and lower in nine markets, with two metros unchanged.
“Some markets where prices jumped quickly a few years ago are now dipping a bit, while other areas that had a slower rise are still going strong,” said Jennifer Wauhob, Chairman of Texas REALTORS®. “It is crucial to know your own market and base decisions on hyper-local information.”
Home sales were up in most metros and up overall
Statewide, 335,390 homes were sold in 2025, an increase of 1.3% from the previous year.
Closed sales were up in 18 markets and down in eight. Abilene had the largest increase in sales (26.4%), followed by Midland (6.9%) and Amarillo (6.5%). The only markets down more than three percent were Laredo (-7.3%), Odessa (-6.6%), and Eagle Pass (-6%).

The number of homes for sale was up in all metros except Abilene and increased statewide by 23.1%. Most markets also had increases in how many days homes stayed on the market before selling. The state average rose to 67 days, an increase of a week compared to 2024. Months of inventory, which measures how long it would take to sell the homes currently on the market at the current pace of sales, increased statewide by half a month to an average of 4.6 months. Four to five months of inventory generally indicates a market balanced between supply and demand, according to analysts at the Texas Real Estate Research Center.
