Fulshear Market Snapshot: January 2026

The market is shifting. We are seeing changes in inventory levels and pricing that indicate a new phase for Fulshear real estate. Here are the critical numbers for the month of January:

• Total Active Listings (End of Month): 211

• Total Sold (Single-Family): 19

• Homes Under Contract: 36

The Data: Year-Over-Year Trends

To understand where we are going, we have to look at where we have been. Comparing January 2026 to January 2025 reveals distinct trends in pricing and market velocity.

Median List Price

• January 2026: $565,000

• January 2025: $582,500

• Trend: The median list price has decreased by approximately 3% year-over-year. This softening in asking prices suggests sellers are adjusting to current buyer demand.

Price Per Square Foot

• January 2026: $196

• January 2025: $200

• Trend: The price per square foot has dropped by $4/sqft. While subtle, this confirms that the premium on square footage is normalizing.

Median Days on Market (DOM)

• January 2026: 55 Days

• January 2025: 44 Days

• Trend: Homes are sitting on the market 25% longer than they did a year ago. It is now taking nearly two months (55 days) on average to secure a contract.

Broker’s Analysis: What This Means for You

For Buyers: The data points to a cooling market, which is excellent news for you. With 211 active listings and only 19 sales in January, the absorption rate is high, creating a definitive Buyer’s Market.

• Opportunity: You have more inventory to choose from and less competition.

• Leverage: With homes lingering for 55 days and prices trending down ($565k median), you have significant room to negotiate on price and repairs.

For Sellers: The market has not stopped, but it has become more price-sensitive. With 36 homes under contract, buyers are active, but they are selective.

• Strategy: Pricing right is critical. You cannot price based on last year’s frenzy.

• Patience: Expect a longer timeline. With an average of 55 days on market, patience and preparation are your best tools.
