Market figures by town

What drives speed to contract in Northwest Austin? In October, the fastest-selling neighborhood saw homes under contract in just 12 days. ALEX Intelligence analyzed median days on market across subdivisions with at least five closed sales to identify where buyers are moving quickest. The data reveals a clear hierarchy of velocity based on actual transaction times rather than listing activity. Great Hills led the pace with a median of 12 days on market across 5 closed sales, followed by Scofield Farms at 39 days for 7 sales. Milwood recorded the longest median time at 61 days across 6 sales. These figures reflect the specific inventory available in each area during the month. The analysis covers all subdivisions meeting the minimum sample threshold of five closed transactions. While Great Hills moved the fastest, the overall market median remained at 50 days for the entire Northwest Austin area based on 76 closed sales. This variation highlights how location and neighborhood dynamics influence selling speed even within a single city sector. The ranking is based strictly on the time from listing to closing for completed transactions in October 2026. No other period or metric was used to determine this order. Want a closer look?
