Sun City Texas Market Heat Score for October

How fast is the Sun City Texas market moving right now? The ALEX Intelligence Market Heat Score for October 2026 reflects a strong seller-leaning environment driven by rapid sales velocity and tight inventory. This composite index weighs four key factors: median days on market, sale-to-list price ratio, inventory levels, and the frequency of price reductions. The most striking driver is speed. Median days on market dropped to 35 days in October, down 34% from 53 days in September. This acceleration suggests buyers are acting quickly when they find a home that meets their criteria. Simultaneously, homes are selling closer to their original asking prices. The median close-to-original list ratio rose to 95.5%, up slightly from 94.7% the prior month, showing that sellers are retaining more of their initial price expectations than in previous months. Inventory remains tight with just 2.05 months of supply available, a level typically associated with competitive conditions. While 82.1% of homes sold below their original list price, this share has improved compared to the prior month and last year, reflecting a market where aggressive pricing is less common than before. The median sale price held steady at $350,000 despite a slight dip in price per square foot. This score reflects current activity based on 56 closed sales. It does not predict future prices but summarizes the intensity of the market as it stands today. Buyers face competition, while sellers benefit from faster turnover and stronger negotiation positions than earlier this year. Want a closer look?
