A balanced reading in Eastern Wells, Jarrell can hide a drop in price per square foot: $161 in the three months ending October 15, 2026, against $183 in the same three months last year. Most homes for sale have also cut their price. In my read, the price to open at is what recent buyers paid, not what the builder listings first asked.

Over the last three months the share was 94.5%, which reads balanced for Eastern Wells overall, and a price point changes which market a home is in.
Most of the homes for sale in Eastern Wells are priced below where they started. The same is true inside both price ranges that had 10 or more sales in the last three months, as the table shows.
Table 2. Eastern Wells homes by price range. Sales are from the 90 days ending October 15, 2026; homes for sale are as of October 16, 2026. A range is a seller’s market when homes sell for at least 97% of their original asking price, balanced from 94% to 97%, and a buyer’s market below 94%. Each reading is for that price range only; a different price point changes which market a home is in. Only price ranges with at least 10 sales in the last 90 days are shown. Source: Unlock MLS.
| Price range | Sold | Median sale price | For sale | New builds for sale | Homes that cut their price | Months of supply | Market |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| $250,000 to $299,999 | 13 | $259,900 | 22 | 22 | 15 | 5.1 | buyer’s market |
| $300,000 to $349,999 | 12 | $306,276 | 14 | 11 | 11 | 3.5 | balanced |
The $250,000 to $299,999 range reads as a buyer’s market for that range over the last three months.
The $300,000 to $349,999 range reads balanced for that range over the same months.
On the twelve-month basis the two readings swap, with the lower range reading balanced and the upper one a buyer’s market, each for that range. A reading that flips with the period tells me to price from recent closings in your own range, not from the subdivision’s overall reading.
The typical Eastern Wells home took 72 days to go under contract in the last three months, against 94 days in the same three months last year.

Fewer than one in ten closed at or above original asking, which fits a subdivision where cuts are common.
