Market figures by town

What does a 22% jump in median price mean for the Comal County market? In September 2026, the median closed sale price reached $497,000, up from $407,245 in August. This increase was driven by 24 closed sales, a figure that is lower than the 38 sales recorded in the prior month but represents a 13% year-over-year gain compared to September 2025. The market also saw a shift in pricing dynamics. The median price per square foot rose to $235, up 14.1% from August. However, homes took longer to sell, with the median days on market increasing to 70 days, a 25% rise from the previous month and 16.7% higher than last year. Sellers received 89.7% of their original list price on average, down slightly from both the prior month and the same time last year. Inventory remains a key factor, with 247 active listings currently available. This supply level suggests a balanced market environment where buyers have options but competition persists for well-priced properties. The data reflects a market adjusting to seasonal shifts while maintaining strong price growth despite fewer transactions. ALEX Intelligence analyzed these figures to provide a clear snapshot of current conditions. With mortgage rates at 7.32% as of late October, affordability remains a central consideration for buyers entering this market. Want to see this home?
