November’s housing market update for The Woodlands reveals a dynamic shift as inventory climbs, prices adjust, and buyers gain more breathing room. Whether you're considering buying, selling, or investing, these latest numbers highlight a market in transition — and one full of opportunity.
Below are the key insights shaping today’s real estate landscape in The Woodlands.
1. Inventory Surges 36%, Giving Buyers More Options
Active listings increased from 310 in 2024 to 422 in 2025, a 36% jump.
More inventory typically means more competition among sellers — and more choices for buyers.
This increase also aligns with a 48% rise in months of inventory, now sitting at 3.7 months, indicating a softening from previous seller-dominant conditions.
2. Median Sales Price Drops 14% Year-over-Year
The median home price shifted from $621,500 in 2024 to $532,500 in 2025, a 14% decrease.
This pricing adjustment may reflect:
-
More mid-range homes entering the market
-
Reduced bidding competition
-
Sellers pricing more realistically as inventory grows
3. Homes Are Selling Faster Despite Higher Inventory
Average Days on Market improved from 62 days to 54 days, a 13% decrease.
This shows that, although more homes are available, well-priced and well-presented listings are still moving quickly.
4. Lease Market Softens Slightly
Median lease prices dipped from $2,700 to $2,550, a 6% decline — modest compared to the shift in home sale prices.
This indicates that rental demand remains relatively stable, even as the for-sale market adjusts.
5. Closed Sales Rise 14% — Buyers Are Still Active
Closed transactions increased from 112 to 128, showing that confidence in The Woodlands market remains strong.
More sales combined with lower prices and increased inventory create a favorable environment for both buyers and sellers — depending on goals.
Outlook for The Woodlands Market
The Woodlands continues to show resilience with buyer activity remaining strong.
However, rising inventory and softening prices suggest we may be entering a more balanced market in 2026.
For sellers:
Pricing strategically and preparing your home for market will be essential.
For buyers:
More options and improved negotiating conditions mean opportunity.
