Texas Housing Insight

August 2023 Summary

August was a positive month for Texas’ residential real estate industry. Despite persistently high interest rates, total home sales picked up 9.5 percent on the consumer side, and construction permits accelerated by 5.3 percent on the supplier side. Amid the growth, the median price slipped for the first time after seven consecutive upticks. While the price drop seemed noteworthy, it was moderate at $800 and may reflect a balanced market. With many sellers stuck with pandemic-era low rates and many buyers struggling to keep up with rising costs, the housing market does not signal any significant volatility anytime soon.
