My Mueller Residential Group colleague, Ashley Jackson, and I are back with our October 2025 Mueller Market Update – a quick look at how the neighborhood real estate numbers shook out.
Read on, and/or watch the quick video:
Summary
The Short Version
Single-family homes are holding strong, while townhomes are still looking for their footing.
Townhomes: A Softer Moment
It’s been a slow stretch for row homes. With only two sales in the past couple of months, it’s tough to get a clean read on pricing trends. October’s price per square foot came in at $405, and the median price landed at $695K – but that figure reflects a single sale, so take it with a grain of salt.
The bigger story is inventory. We’re sitting at 4.6 months, up from 3.7 in September. That tells us buyers have more choices, and sellers may not be meeting the market where it actually is. If you’re planning to list a row home soon, make sure your home is move-in ready, on-trend, and – most importantly – priced correctly. Great marketing can’t fix a home that’s simply priced too high.
Single-Family Homes: Still Moving
On the flip side, single-family homes continue to move at a healthy pace. We saw an average of 16 days on market, which is impressive for the broader Austin landscape. A small dip in interest rates definitely helped kick up some activity.
Prices remain strong, too, with an average of $471 per square foot and six sales recorded recently. Inventory is lower here as well, at 3.8 months, which keeps single-family homes firmly in a more balanced and active market.
The Bottom Line
If you’re selling a row home, this is the moment to get strategic – dial in your pricing, presentation, and timing. If you’re selling a single-family home, the demand is absolutely there, provided you launch with the right prep.
As always, if you’re thinking about making a move or just want to understand what these numbers mean for your home, I’m here to help!
