Frequently Asked Questions

How many homes are for sale in Harris County?

There are 19,172 homes for sale in Harris County. More active homes usually means better selection and a little more time to compare before you offer.

What is the median list price of homes in Harris County?

The median list price is $335,873. Median is a clearer "typical" price than average because extreme outliers—like a few luxury estates at the top or a few short sales/fixers at steep discounts—don't pull it up or down as much.

What is the average list price of homes in Harris County?

The average list price is $439,592. Compare average vs. median to read the market's "tilt": when average is higher than median, upper-end homes are likely lifting the market; when average is lower than median, more lower-priced or discounted homes may be in the mix. A big gap in either direction usually means the current inventory is skewed.

What is the median price per square foot for homes in Harris County?

Homes list at a median $160 per sq ft in Harris County. Price-per-foot helps you compare value across neighborhoods and renovations; newer or recently updated homes often sit above the median.

How long do homes typically stay on the market in Harris County?

The median days on market (DOM) is 58 days. Shorter DOM signals stronger demand—expect quicker tours and faster decisions when DOM is low; longer DOM often means you can compare more and negotiate.

What is the housing months of supply for homes in Harris County?

Months of supply (MOS) is 7.3. MOS estimates how long it would take to sell all current listings at the recent sales pace if no new homes were listed. As a rule of thumb, 3–6 MOS is balanced; below 3 tends to favor sellers (move fast, expect competition), while above 6 can give buyers more leverage and time.

How many one-story vs. two-story homes are for sale in Harris County?

About 48% one-story, 45% two-story, and 7% three-plus-story homes are active. Single-story homes are often in tighter supply and attract buyers who want fewer stairs, which can lead to quicker sales and firmer pricing when demand is strong.
