Market figures by town

Big Sky Ranch is outperforming its broader geographic peers with a median closing price of $464,990 across 47 closed sales in the rolling six months ending October 31, 2026. This figure represents a 22.4% increase compared to the same period last year and sits above the Hays County median of $371,080 and the regional median of $400,000. The market here is also moving significantly faster, with homes selling in a median of 35 days, which reflects a -34% change compared to the same window last year and is well below the 72-day median for Hays County. ALEX Intelligence analyzed the pricing dynamics to show that buyers are paying closer to their original offers. The median close-to-original list ratio reached 0.962, indicating that sellers are retaining more of their asking price compared to the regional average of 0.938. While the median price per square foot saw a -7% change from the prior period, the overall value proposition remains strong relative to the surrounding area. The supply landscape also differs markedly from the wider region. With only 11 active listings and 47 sales over six months, Big Sky Ranch operates with a 1.4-months of inventory level, signaling a tight market where demand consistently outpaces new supply. This scarcity contributes to the rapid turnover and price appreciation observed in this specific community compared to the broader Hays County and Unlock MLS region averages. Want to see this home?
