Comal County saw a sharp divergence between price and volume in September. Median closed prices climbed to $497,000, up 22% from August and 13% higher than the same month last year across 24 sales. This price strength occurred alongside a significant drop in activity, with only 24 homes closing compared to 38 in August and 30 in September 2025. The market remains supply-constrained for buyers despite the lower volume. Months of inventory stood at 7.01 as of October 1, indicating a buyer's market where homes take longer to sell. Median days on market extended to 70 days, up 25% from August and 16.7% higher than last September. Consequently, the median close-to-original list ratio fell to 89.7%, down 4 percentage points from the prior month. New supply also tightened relative to demand. Only 49 new listings entered the market in September, a slight increase from August but well below the 38-year average for this period. The median living area of sold homes shrank to 1,962 square feet, down 13.7% from August, suggesting smaller properties are driving the current sales volume. ALEX Intelligence analyzed these trends to project a continued need for strategic pricing. With inventory at 249 active listings and only 24 closings last month, buyers have more selection but face higher price points. Sellers must recognize that while prices are up, the window to sell quickly has narrowed significantly compared to the previous quarter. The data reflects a market adjusting to higher interest rates, with the current 30-year fixed rate at 7.32% as of late October. While affordability remains a challenge, the price resilience suggests underlying demand persists for well-priced inventory in this ABOR-covered region. Want to see this home?
