Stay informed about your local market! 🏠 Here is a quick look at the latest real estate trends for Amarillo as we move into the first week of 2026.

Whether you are looking to buy, sell, or just curious about your home’s value, here is what’s happening right now:

📉 Market Update: Is it a Buyer’s Market?

The Amarillo market is showing a shift toward a balanced/buyer’s market. We are seeing more options for buyers and a slightly slower pace than the post-pandemic "frenzy" years.

Median Sale Price: Holding steady at approximately $237,000.
Time on Market: Homes are averaging about 71–85 days from listing to close—roughly 8–12 days longer than this time last year.
Inventory: There is currently a 3.4 to 3.7-month supply of homes. This increase in inventory means more breathing room for buyers to negotiate.

📍 Neighborhood Spotlights

High Demand: Newer builds and family-friendly areas like The Colonies, Hillside Terrace, and Heritage Hills continue to see the most activity.
Affordability: Neighborhoods in Northwest (79124) and Southwest (79119) remain the primary hubs for growth and new construction.

💡 What This Means For You

For Buyers: You finally have some leverage! Use the extra "Days on Market" to your advantage when negotiating repairs or closing costs.
For Sellers: Pricing and presentation are everything. Homes priced correctly in the $200k–$300k range are still moving, but luxury properties are requiring a bit more patience.
