Spicewood Monthly Market Recap: Sales Up, Prices Down in September

Spicewood's housing market showed resilience in September with a 70.6% increase in closed sales compared to the same month last year, even as median prices dipped. A total of 29 homes sold for a median price of $612,500, which represents a 4.1% decrease from August and an 18.3% drop from September 2025. This volume surge suggests renewed buyer activity despite the cooling in price levels. The time it took to sell a home also increased significantly. The median days on market rose to 100 days, up 61.3% from August and 12.4% higher than last year. This indicates that while more deals are closing, they are taking longer to finalize compared to the previous month or the same period in 2025. Additionally, the median living area of sold homes shrank by 12.1% from August, settling at 2,306 square feet, which is 20.8% smaller than the same time last year. Inventory remains a key factor with 224 active listings and an estimated 8.25 months of supply. This level of inventory typically points to a buyer-favorable environment where negotiation power may shift toward purchasers. The median price per square foot fell to $262, down 5.4% from the prior month but up 4.0% year-over-year. With current mortgage rates at 7.32%, affordability remains a central consideration for buyers navigating this market.
