What this means right now
Montgomery County remains highly neighborhood-specific. The Woodlands is still the tightest market in the area at three months of inventory and a 39-day average pace, while Conroe, Lake Conroe, and the northwest county have moved into balanced territory with longer timelines and more negotiating room. Median prices in the outer areas are up year over year, but softer pending sales and rising price reductions mean pricing accuracy matters more than it did last spring. The best strategy still depends on price point, location, property type, and timing.
