Houston’s housing market remained active and competitive throughout the first half of 2025. With over 11,000 closed sales recorded between January and July, homes across the city continued to sell at a rapid pace, driven by demand in both suburban and central neighborhoods.
The median home sold for $330,000, with most properties going under contract in just over three weeks — a median of 23 days on market. This velocity indicates that well-priced listings remain highly attractive to buyers, even as affordability becomes more critical.
Seller concessions were present in approximately 40% of all transactions, with a typical concession totaling $6,500. This reflects a balanced negotiation environment where buyers are leveraging closing cost assistance while still competing for limited inventory. The wide price spectrum — ranging from under $300 to luxury estates over $12 million — highlights the city’s diverse housing stock.
Due to dataset size limitations, active listing data was excluded from this report. However, sales trends provide a strong barometer of buyer behavior and market momentum. Expect these patterns to evolve through the second half of the year as interest rates, inventory levels, and pricing strategies continue to shift.
