Eleven Oaks Realty is proud to present their July 2025 Austin Real Estate Price Report measuring activity in the single family home market.
The Austin Real Estate Market Remains a Balanced Market
In July 2025, the Austin real estate market remained a balanced market for the third month in a row. In June 2025, there wrecked 5.64 months of inventory on the Austin single family home market, down 9.03% in month over month comparisons. The average sold to list price was 96.7%, down 0.48% in month over month comparisons. The median time to sell a single family home in Austin in July 2025 was 38 days, up 8.57% in month over month comparisons. The median sold price was $623,500, down 0.24% in month over month comparisons.
What does this mean for sellers? With a median selling time of 38 days, the market is maintaining a steady transaction pace. While homes aren’t moving as quickly as they did in 2022, buyer activity remains strong. Sellers are achieving nearly 97% of their list prices, underscoring the critical role of strategic pricing—setting a realistic price that attracts interest and facilitates negotiations closer to the desired sales price. Although some concessions are being made, sellers who price their homes appropriately can still secure a buyer relatively quickly compared to other balanced markets nationwide. The median sold price remains in the mid-$600,000s, reflecting the market’s resilience. Prices aren’t surging or falling, but they’re holding steady, which is encouraging for sellers. Those looking to sell can take comfort in knowing the market continues to present opportunities without requiring significant price cuts.
What does this mean for buyers? The current Austin housing market offers a balanced dynamic between supply and demand, meaning buyers aren’t facing intense competition or an overwhelming surplus of homes. This creates a more stable environment for negotiations. On average, sellers are receiving about 97% of their list price, which suggests there’s some room for negotiation, but most transactions are closing near the asking price. While occasional deals arise where homes sell for significantly less, these instances are exceptions rather than the rule. If your budget is $500,000, it’s wise to focus on homes priced around that range rather than expecting to negotiate a $600,000 home down to your budget. Additionally, the median time on the market reflects a steady pace of transactions, giving buyers a bit more breathing room to make thoughtful decisions without feeling rushed.

Time to Buy? Sell?
As we always say, the best time to buy or sell a home is when you need to buy or sell. If you have a house to buy, buying when its a sellers market may hurt you on the buying end, but you’ll make it up on the selling end. If you’re trying to get into the market for the first time, the only way you’ll know that we’ve “hit bottom” is when its in the rear view mirror. Work with professionals who can help you analyze your financial and lifestyle to determine if now is the right time to buy or sell.
If you’re focused on the numbers, now might be the right time to buy. While Austin’s market is currently balanced—meaning neither buyers nor sellers have a clear advantage—there are signs that buyers are gaining the upper hand. Compared to the intense seller’s markets of 2021 and 2022, where buyers had little to no negotiating power, today’s conditions are more favorable.
This month, inventory has increased by 7%, and the median active list price has dropped by 6%, giving buyers more options at lower price points than last year. Additionally, home sales have dipped by 3%, and the median time to sell has jumped by 15%. For sellers, this means fewer buyers in the market and longer wait times to close a deal. Motivated sellers are feeling the pressure and are more likely to offer concessions, creating opportunities for buyers to secure better terms.
If you’re looking to buy, get with a knowledgeable mortgage broker who can guide you to getting the lowest interest rate possible to minimize your monthly housing costs and a Realtor who knows the market and can help you to negotiate the best possible deal. Though it is taking longer to sell, the best homes are still selling quickly, so you don’t want to wait too long once you see a home listed that you like. Give yourself some extra time to make a decision while others are waiting to see the home. If you’re looking to buy, we can help you be successful. We have experienced several market shifts in our careers and know how to navigate them. For more info about buying a home, visit Buy a Home in Austin.
If you need to sell, remember homes are still selling with median prices up 1.4% from last year. The median time to sell is 38 days, which means some homes are selling fairly quickly. Prepare your home to meet a buyer so it presents in the best light possible. Then, price your home for today’s market, not for 2022’s, and you’ll end up getting more. If you’re a seller who needs to sell now, work with a professional Realtor who can help you position your home as the best value on the market.
