Lavon, TX Housing Market Update – Year-End 2025

Latest Update: January 2026 • Data via NTREIS

Key Highlights

  • Median Price: $329,900 (−14.3% YoY)
  • Closed Sales: 180 (−22.1% YoY)
  • Active Listings: 53 (−28.4% YoY)
  • Months of Inventory: 1.5 (−1.2 YoY)

PRICES
Lavon’s median home price ended 2025 at $329,900, down 14.3% year over year. That’s a meaningful adjustment and suggests the market is recalibrating to today’s affordability realities, especially for payment-sensitive buyers. Even so, price movement needs to be viewed alongside supply and sales activity, which both declined notably.

SALES ACTIVITY
Closed sales dropped to 180, down 22.1% from 2024. This points to fewer transactions overall, which can happen when buyers slow down due to interest rates and sellers hesitate to list. In a smaller market, lower volume can amplify price swings because each sale has a bigger impact on the median.

INVENTORY
Active listings fell to 53, down 28.4% year over year, indicating that supply tightened even as sales declined. When both demand and supply pull back, the market often becomes “selective”—homes that are priced right and show well still move, while anything that feels overpriced or underprepared is easier for buyers to pass on.

MARKET BALANCE
Months of inventory decreased to 1.5, down 1.2 from the prior year, which keeps Lavon firmly in low-inventory territory. That level typically supports pricing for homes that match buyer expectations, but it doesn’t eliminate negotiation—buyers are still cautious and value-driven. The most realistic way to view Lavon at year-end is a tighter supply environment with softer demand, where outcomes depend heavily on pricing precision and condition.

What Sellers Need to Know

  • Even with low inventory, buyers are price-sensitive, so accurate pricing is critical.
  • Strong presentation and show-ready condition matter more when buyers are cautious.
  • Expect negotiation tied to inspections and monthly payment concerns, especially on homes needing updates.
  • In a lower-volume market, targeted marketing and correct positioning can protect momentum.

What Buyers Need to Know

  • Inventory is tight, so the best values may move quickly despite slower overall sales.
  • You may still be able to negotiate, but leverage is most likely on homes that need repairs or have been sitting.
  • Focus on value and long-term fit—layout, location, and condition matter more than chasing a low list price.
  • Be prepared to act when a well-priced home hits the market, since options can be limited.

2026 Lavon Housing Market Forecast

Looking ahead to 2026, Lavon will likely remain a market where inventory levels heavily influence leverage, especially if new listings continue to lag. With months of inventory still low, sellers who price correctly and present well should remain competitive, but buyers are expected to stay payment-driven and selective if interest rates remain elevated. Price performance may stabilize compared to 2025, though appreciation is likely to be modest and uneven—stronger for homes that feel updated and move-in ready, softer for homes that require work or are priced ahead of recent comparable sales. If rates ease later in the year, Lavon could see a quicker spring and early summer season as sidelined buyers re-enter, but the market is still expected to reward realistic expectations more than urgency. Overall, 2026 should feel more strategy-based than speed-based, with the best results going to well-positioned listings and well-prepared buyers.
