Sunset Oaks Market Heat Score: Speed and Price Wins

How fast does a home sell in Sunset Oaks when demand is strong? In the rolling six months ending September 30, 2026, the median time to close dropped to 19 days across 40 sales, down from 24 days in the prior period. This speed signals a market where buyers are moving quickly to secure inventory. ALEX Intelligence calculated a Market Heat Score by weighting four key indicators: median days on market, sale-to-list price ratio, inventory levels, and the share of listings with price cuts. The resulting score reflects a competitive environment where properties are selling faster than the regional average of 56 days. Price performance supports this momentum. The median close price rose to $269,745, up 3.7% from the prior six-month period and 5.8% higher than the same window last year. Homes are also closing closer to their original list prices, with a median close-to-original-list ratio of 0.982, compared to 0.94 in the prior period. Inventory remains a constraint relative to sales pace. With 60 active listings and 40 closed sales over six months, the market holds roughly 9 months of inventory. While this exceeds the typical balance point for a neutral market, the rapid absorption rate keeps the heat score elevated. The data reflects a community where speed and price stability are defining features for buyers and sellers alike. Want these numbers for your street? Email [email protected]. Data from Unlock MLS.
