League City Market homes are moving faster, even with rates above 7%
You may be watching rates and wondering if buyers have walked away. The Real Estate Data Aggregator counted 31.6% of League City Market homes going under contract within two weeks of listing, for the three months ending August 31, 2026. That share rose 6.5 points from the same months in 2025. Serious buyers are still moving.
Freddie Mac put the 30-year fixed rate at 7.40% on October 8, 2026. That is not a small number. But the speed data above says buyers are adjusting, not disappearing.
What the full picture shows
The Real Estate Data Aggregator tracked the three months ending August 31, 2026 in ZIP 77573. Prices dipped a little. Days on market fell. Pending sales edged up. Not every number points the same way, and that is worth knowing.
Prices dipped, but sellers are still close to their number
The Real Estate Data Aggregator put the median sale price at $399,995, down 4.8% from a year before. That is a real dip. Even so, the average home sold at 97.8% of its list price, up 0.6 points from a year ago. Sellers are not giving up much ground.
More listings came to market
The Real Estate Data Aggregator counted 544 new listings in ZIP 77573 for the three months ending August 31, 2026. That is up 13.1% from a year before. More choices for buyers. More competition for sellers. Realtor.com reported active listings nationally were up 6.7% from a year ago as of October 8, 2026, the fastest pace since February. League City Market outpaced that national climb.
The rate picture, in plain terms
Freddie Mac averaged the 30-year fixed rate at 7.40% on October 8, 2026. The 15-year fixed averaged 6.73% that same day. CNBC reported on October 6, 2026 that it takes about 28% of median income to own a home nationally, compared with 26% to rent. The gap is narrow. That matters to buyers weighing their options.
What this adds up to
Speed is up. Supply held steady. Prices softened a little. The National Association of Realtors put national months of supply at 4.9 months as of its October 9, 2026 reading, the highest in over ten years. League City Market sits at 3.2 months. That is a different story than the national one.

One street can read very differently from the whole ZIP code. A block with more new listings, or one where prices held firm, tells its own story. If you want to know what is happening on your street, send me your address.
