Killeen Market Heat Score: What the Data Says in September

Is the Killeen market cooling or holding steady? The ALEX Intelligence Market Heat Score for September 2026 reflects a balanced market where neither buyers nor sellers hold a distinct advantage. This composite index weighs four key factors: median days on market, sale-to-list price ratio, inventory levels, and the frequency of price reductions. In September, 41 homes closed at a median price of $260,000, a 0.8% increase from August but 6.6% lower than the same month last year. The average home spent 30 days on market, up 15.4% from the prior month and 25.0% higher than September 2025. While homes sold for a median of 100% of their original list price, only 43.9% closed below that initial asking price, down significantly from 54.8% in August. Current inventory stands at 170 active listings, creating approximately 4.8 months of supply. This level suggests a shift toward buyer leverage compared to the tighter conditions seen earlier in the year. The ALEX Intelligence model assigns equal weight to speed of sale, price retention, stock levels, and discounting frequency to generate this score. With days on market rising and prices softening year-over-year, the market is stabilizing after recent fluctuations. ALEX Intelligence estimate, not an appraisal. Want a closer look?
