Market figures by town

What drives the shift in home sizes across Llano County? In October 2026, the median living area for closed sales fell to 2,098 square feet, down from 2,546 square feet just one month prior. This represents a 17.6% decrease compared to the previous period and a 4.0% increase year-over-year against October 2025 figures. ALEX Intelligence analyzed the rolling trend of home sizes to identify this contraction in living space. The data shows that while the median price per square foot rose slightly, the total footprint of homes selling in the county has narrowed significantly. This shift suggests a market moving toward smaller, more efficient single-family homes rather than the larger properties seen in September. The sample size for October includes 22 closed sales, meeting the minimum threshold for reliable trend analysis. While the median price per square foot increased by 12.5% compared to last year, the physical size of the average home sold has decreased. This indicates that buyers are prioritizing location or price point over total square footage in the current market cycle. The data reflects a distinct change in inventory composition or buyer preference, where homes under 2,100 square feet are dominating the sales volume. This trend is observed across the county's closed transactions and highlights a pivot in the types of properties moving most frequently in Llano County during this period. Want to see this home?
