Market figures by town

How many new neighborhoods are driving activity in Caldwell County? In September 2026, ALEX Intelligence identified 23 closed sales of homes built within the last two years, representing a significant portion of the month's 32 total transactions. This volume highlights where buyers are finding fresh inventory and modern construction features. The median closing price for these new construction homes was $269,490, with an average living area of 1,833 square feet. While specific subdivision names for new builds were not individually ranked in the provided data set to meet the minimum sample size of five subdivisions with at least five sales each, the aggregate volume indicates strong demand for newer properties compared to the prior period's 24 closings and last year's 21. ALEX Intelligence analyzed the construction cohort to determine that new builds continue to be a primary driver in this market segment. The data shows that while overall closed sales dipped slightly from the prior month, the presence of over two dozen new homes suggests active development and buyer interest in newer communities. This trend underscores the importance of tracking new construction volume as a leading indicator for neighborhood vitality. The analysis confirms that new neighborhoods are contributing meaningfully to the local market mix, offering buyers options with recent build dates. As the market continues to evolve, monitoring these specific cohorts helps distinguish between established resale activity and emerging community growth. Want a closer look?
