Gillespie County: New Listings Outpace Closings in Rolling Six Months

In Gillespie County, the balance between new supply and buyer demand shifted over the last six months as new listings outpaced closings. ALEX Intelligence analyzed the market using a dual-axis supply and demand trend to compare activity volumes across the rolling window ending September 30, 2026. During this period, 73 new listings entered the market while only 42 homes closed sales. This gap indicates that inventory is accumulating faster than it is being absorbed by buyers. The median close price for these 42 transactions was $602,500, down 6.6% from the prior six-month period and 17.5% lower than the same window a year ago. The days on market averaged 67 days, which is 36.7% longer than the same period last year, suggesting buyers are taking more time to decide or that pricing adjustments are needed. While new construction accounted for 8 of the closed sales, the overall volume remains modest compared to regional benchmarks. This supply gap highlights a market where sellers may need to adjust expectations as inventory builds up relative to the pace of closings. Want to see this home?
