Reporting Period: Jan 1–Jan 31, 2026 • Data via NTREIS
PRICES
Caddo Mills posted a January median sold price of $574,950, notably higher than last January. In a smaller market, monthly median price can swing based on which specific homes close (price range, acreage, custom builds, and new construction mix). The practical takeaway is that pricing outcomes are being driven by the “mix” of what sells, while buyers remain value-focused when they have alternatives.
SALES ACTIVITY
Closed sales finished the month at 8, up from last January’s level. That increase suggests stronger buyer follow-through compared to early 2025, but it’s still a relatively small monthly sample. Homes that are priced realistically and show clear value for their category are the ones most likely to convert.
INVENTORY
Active listings rose to 94, which increases buyer choice and reduces urgency—especially for properties that are overpriced or need work. The most active price band among available homes is $500,000–$749,999, representing about 28.7% of active inventory, so that’s where listing competition is most concentrated right now. With more selection, buyers are comparing condition, land utility, and overall property value more closely.
MARKET BALANCE
Months of inventory is estimated at 11.8 based on the current month’s active-to-closed pace, which reflects a more buyer-leaning environment than last year. Market timing supports that: the median closed home spent about 68 days on market plus roughly 28 days from contract to close, for a total of about 96 days from list to close. The market is still moving, but the margin for error on pricing and preparation is smaller when buyers have options.
Caddo Mills is starting 2026 with more available inventory, which should keep buyers selective and negotiation active—especially for homes that aren’t priced or presented as the best option in their bracket. If mortgage rates soften later in the year, the best-prepared listings (updated, clean, and priced realistically) could see faster absorption during the spring and early summer season. If rates stay higher, expect longer timelines and continued requests for concessions, particularly when multiple comparable options exist. For sellers, 2026 is likely to reward preparation, pricing discipline, and strong first-week marketing more than “market momentum.” For buyers, the current selection supports better decision-making and stronger terms, especially on listings that have been sitting.
