"The Austin-Round Rock-San Marcos metro housing market shows a striking disconnect between aggressive price reductions and selling pace, with 53.43% of active listings taking price cuts while homes still require 84 days to sell, according to the latest market data. This paradox positions Austin as an outlier in both Texas and national markets. Despite more than half of sellers reducing prices, the metro's median days on market exceeds the national average of 77 days, though it moves faster than the Texas state median of 91 days."
"The market absorbed 780 homes during the week while adding 443 new listings, creating a net inventory increase that reinforces buyer-favorable conditions. The relisting rate sits at 7.86%, indicating most sellers remain committed to finding buyers rather than pulling listings. However, the combination of high price-cut percentages and extended market times reveals persistent buyer resistance at current price levels. The median list price holds at $499,000 with homes priced at $228.07 per square foot, both exceeding state levels of $374,000 and $181.81 per square foot respectively."
