Lake Windcrest

Today’s inventory reinforces a split market: sharply priced, well‑positioned homes are moving in days while a large pool of older or over‑priced listings is creating negotiation opportunities.

Market Pulse

• Active, fast movers in the upper bands: multiple homes priced from $1.0M–$1.65M are showing DOM in the single digits (examples at DOM 2–9), signaling energetic buyer demand when price and presentation align.
• Plenty of family homes on acreage: many listings fall into the 3,500–6,700 sqft range on acre‑plus lots — exactly what local growing households want.
• Buyer leverage exists in pockets: a meaningful set of properties sit beyond 100+ DOM, including several at 200+ DOM — prime targets for buyers who can handle updates or are patient.
• Scarcity of raw land: only a handful of land parcels are active (notably a 2.10–3.52 acre selection), and those move quickly when priced right.

Key Insight From Today's Listings

• Pricing clarity wins: homes like 10703 Clubhouse Cir ($1,299,000, DOM 2), 32827 Green Bend Ct ($1,225,000, DOM 3), and 10603 Clubhouse Cir ($1,175,000, DOM 3) demonstrate that accurately-marketed upper-mid listings convert within days.
• Acreage remains a differentiator: estate parcels and ranch-style tracts (examples at 2–6 acres, including properties priced up to $2.15M–$1.95M) attract buyers seeking privacy, and they maintain value even when days on market vary.
• Deep value opportunities: long‑sitting homes such as 3876 Tolby Creek Ln (DOM 566) and 9210 Fm 1488 Rd (DOM 255) show clear negotiation room — expect below‑market offers to be considered if financing and timelines are reasonable.
• Move‑fast neighborhoods: many Clubhouse Cir, Diamante and Sendera addresses with acreage convert quickly when presented cleanly — be ready if these streets match your criteria.

My Advice for Buyers and Sellers

For sellers

• Capture early demand: position your home to draw offers in the first 10–14 days — that window is where most fast sales are happening.
• Show usable land and turnkey systems: buyers pay premiums for fenced pastures, functional outbuildings, new roofs/HVAC and clear paddock areas — highlight those prominently.
• If you’re past 90 days, treat your listing like a relaunch: fresh photos, tightened price, and a focused showing schedule will reengage buyers.

For buyers

• Be transaction‑ready for hot listings: have pre‑approval, comps, and a clear priority list so you can write quickly on homes with DOM under 10.
• Shop long‑DOM inventory for margin: properties sitting 100+ days are where you’ll find the most room to negotiate, especially under $400k or in the mid‑range if you don’t mind updates.
• Prioritize acreage and layout now: usable land and well‑configured floor plans don’t come up every week — if they matter, act decisively when the right match appears.
