Best In Texas Real Estate™: Hill Country
2026-07-17
The latest Q2 2026 data from the Dallas Fed presents a fascinating picture for the Texas Hill Country real estate market. While median home prices saw a measured 3.2% year-over-year increase to $515,000, the underlying narrative points to persistent supply challenges with only 2.8 months of housing inventory. This continued tightness suggests that demand remains robust, even as the pace of price growth stabilizes. Separately, the Texas A&M TRERC's mid-year review highlights a strong 5.5% appreciation in rural land values across Central Texas, underscoring the diverse investment opportunities within the region. How do these nuanced trends impact your strategic outlook for the Hill Country?
