Gillespie County: Best Month to List Based on History

What is the best time to list a home in Gillespie County? Historical data from the last 24 months reveals a clear seasonal pattern for this market. ALEX Intelligence analyzed monthly closed sales and median prices from October 2024 through September 2026 to identify the optimal listing window. The analysis shows that October consistently delivers the highest volume of transactions. In October 2025, 8 homes sold, a 100% increase from the previous month and a 33% rise compared to October 2024. This surge in activity suggests strong buyer demand during this period. While median prices fluctuate significantly due to the small sample size typical of rural counties, the volume trend remains distinct. For instance, October 2025 saw a median price of $877,000 across 8 sales. In contrast, other months like February 2026 recorded only 3 sales with a median price of $405,000. The data indicates that listing in late summer or early autumn positions sellers to capture the peak market activity before the winter slowdown. The current rolling six-month window ending September 30, 2026, shows 41 closed sales with a median price of $595,000. This is down 7.8% from the prior six months and 18.5% from the same period last year. However, the seasonal spike in October remains a reliable indicator for timing a sale to maximize exposure and potential offers. Listing in October aligns with the historical peak in buyer activity, offering the best chance for a quick sale in this market. Want to see this home?
