What is happening in the real estate market in 77375?

We currently have 51 homes pending, with 24 homes sold in the last two weeks, averaging a sale price of $234 a square foot. Twenty-Four homes sold over the asking price, with one home selling 6% above the listing price.

Compared to the two weeks prior: Homes sold are up from 14 homes sold to 24 homes sold and the average sales price is also up to $729,463 ($655,116 previously). Every home is different, with different features, so don’t forget to ask us for your annual equity review if you are curious about your personal home. You can request your free home evaluation here or email us here.

If we look at how fast the move-in ready homes are going, the demand in this area has not surpassed the supply, making it still a great time to sell. Buyer agents around Houston are seeing a slow in the real estate market, but it isn’t affecting every neighborhood. I know the interest rates rising has been one deterrent from some buyers purchasing right now, but that isn’t your ideal buyer anyways!

The most desirable homes in the area are still selling the first weekend or first week they hit the market (a really good coming soon campaign, like we do at Jo & Co. allows you to sell faster, for more money).

Insight From Jo

With Memorial Day weekend behind us and graduation celebrations just around the corner, summer is officially knocking—and so is a shift in our local real estate market.

Across the north Houston suburbs—from Tomball to The Woodlands, Katy to Kingwood—we’re continuing to see signs of a temporary buyer’s market. While interest rates have crept up a bit compared to last month, high inventory and reduced competition mean buyers still have a small window of opportunity to negotiate favorable terms before summer activity picks up.

For sellers, don’t worry—momentum is building. Once the graduation dust settles and more families get serious about summer moves, we should see an uptick in buyer activity and showing traffic. If you’ve been waiting for the “right time” to list, the next few weeks could offer a sweet spot before the full heat of summer hits.

What is happening in the real estate market nationally?

Mortgage rates saw a slight downward trend last week. Home prices continue to appreciate on an annual basis, but slow month-over-month. Mortgage application submissions decreased two weeks ago. Jobless claims increased, as did the Q1 GDP estimate and pending home sales in April. Inflation increased on the core PCE index for April, while personal income and consumer spending increased as well.

Review of Last Week

TARIFF TEMPERATURE COOLS... The holiday-shortened week opened with news the President deferred the 50% tariff on the EU until July 9 to allow time for a deal. This boosted the major indexes enough to post gains for the week.

But the road to those gains was choppy, tripped up by April durable goods orders showing a big drop-off in business spending, while the second estimate for Q1 GDP delivered a downward revision for consumer spending.

Yet Consumer Confidence made a huge jump in May after five straight months of decline, and PCE Price inflation, the Fed's favorite read, dropped to 2.1% in April, with core PCE, excluding volatile food and energy prices, at 2.5%.

The week ended with the Dow UP 1.6%, to 42,270; the S&P 500 UP 1.9%, to 5,912; and the Nasdaq UP 2,0%, to 19.114.

Bond prices also headed north overall, the 30-Year UMBS 5.5% UP 0.19, to 98.27. In Freddie Mac's Primary Mortgage Market Survey, the national average 30-year fixed mortgage rate edged up a tiny bit, but remains below a year ago. Remember, mortgage rates can be extremely volatile, so check with your mortgage professional for up-to-the-minute information.    

DID YOU KNOW… The price gap between new and existing homes has narrowed to a $14,600 average in Q1 2025, from $64,000 in Q4 2022. And when factoring in buyer incentives from builders, the gap can disappear.

Market Forecast

CONSTRUCTION SPENDING, MANUFACTURING, SERVICES, JOBS… April Construction Spending is expected grow overall, and we'll focus on the residential part. Analysts predict the May ISM Manufacturing Index will report that sector of the economy still in contraction territory, while the ISM Services Index will show that far larger sector expanding at a greater rate. Economists forecast a moderate gain in new Nonfarm Payrolls for May, with Average Hourly Earnings up, and the Unemployment Rate holding.

Summary

The Mortgage Bankers Association reported purchase mortgage applications up compared to the week before, with that measure of buyer activity a solid 18% higher than the same week a year ago.

Pending Home Sales, an index of signed contracts on existing homes, fell 6.3% in April, but with inventory at five-year highs, the National Association of Realtors says buyers "are in a better position to negotiate more favorable terms.”

The closely followed Case-Shiller Home Price Index disclosed, “home price growth continued to decelerate on an annual basis in March,” down 0.6% from February, while FHFA home price growth also dipped for the month.
