Kyle closed 369 homes at a median $307,000 in the 90 days ending September 20, 2026 and held 598 for sale on September 21, 2026, which is 4.9 months of inventory against 5.6 for the Austin metro. Under WIR’s rule that is a seller’s-market label for the town taken whole, and the price a house carries decides which of these markets it really sits in. The 78640 ZIP reaches past the city limits and counted 414 sales and 654 listings on the same two dates.
Kyle measured 4.9 months of inventory in the 90 days ending September 20, 2026 where the Austin metro measured 5.6, a seller’s-market label for the town taken whole under WIR’s rule against a balanced one for the metro, and a price point changes which market a home is in. Builders hold 278 of the 598 listings, and 371 of the 598 (62.0%) already ask less than they first did. Below are the town, the ZIP, four periods, three peer towns and every price band.

The wider Kyle story is on the Kyle, TX real estate market report.
Last updated September 21, 2026. Sales data covers the 90 days ending September 20, 2026 and the twelve months ending the same day (Unlock MLS via MLS Grid); listing inventory as of September 21, 2026.
Two counts make the headline. 369 Kyle homes sold in the 90 days ending September 20, 2026, 598 were listed on September 21, 2026, and dividing the second by a month of the first gives 4.9 months of inventory where the metro gives 5.6. The WIR labels printed just below cover Kyle as a whole and the metro as a whole, and the price a house carries decides which of those markets it really sits in. The store behind every table here is refreshed monthly.

Table 1 names the page that argues each row. Kyle’s median of 57 days to contract runs above the metro’s 50, and the 369 sales split hard: 107 found a contract inside a month, 129 needed more than three. Why aren’t homes selling in Kyle? takes that split apart.
Buyers paid 94.7% of original asking, close to the metro’s 94.8%, and 57 sales (15.4%) landed at or above the first asking price, which is where what is your Kyle home worth next to a brand-new house? starts. The pipeline on September 21, 2026 held 32 active under contract and 123 pending, contracts signed and not yet closed, which is what should you sell your Kyle home now, or wait? rests on, with 441 new listings arriving over the period.
The last row disagrees with the first ones. 371 of the 598 listings (62.0%) sit below their original asking price, against 57.3% metro-wide, at an active median asking of $329,550 and a median 64 days listed so far. Who set those asking prices is taken up on what is your Kyle home competing against right now?
78640 is drawn wider than the city, so its counts run higher: 414 sales and 654 listings against the city’s 369 and 598. Its 4.7 months carries a seller’s-market label for the ZIP taken whole, which settles nothing about the price band a particular house sits in.

| ZIP | Sold | Median sale price | Median DOM | Of original asking | For sale | Months | Label | For sale below original asking | Builder listings |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 78640 | 414 | $294,795 | 56 days | 94.3% | 654 | 4.7 | seller’s market | 406 (62.1%) | 328 of 654 |
The ZIP is where the building shows. Builders hold 328 of the 654 listings (50.2%), new builds were 264 of the 414 sales (63.8%), and 258 of those sales came out of 2025 or later against 9 that predate 2000.
Across the twelve months ending September 20, 2026 the ZIP recorded 1,595 sales at a median $305,000 on 4.9 months, the same seller’s-market label for the ZIP overall and no answer for any one band inside it. Waterstone contributed 123 of those sales at a median $289,990 and 6 Creeks 87 at $489,990, both on a median build year of 2025. The builders behind them are on the competition page, and what all of it means for a seller is on the Kyle, TX real estate market report.
Kyle’s twelve months ending September 20, 2026 recorded 1,394 sales at a median $318,690; the twelve months before them recorded 1,569 at $332,040, down 11.2% on the count and down 4.0% on the median.

| Period | Sold | Median sale price | Median DOM | Of original asking | Price per square foot |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 90 days ending September 20, 2026 | 369 | $307,000 | 57 days | 94.7% | $165 |
| Same 90 days, 2025 (June 23, 2025 to September 20, 2025) | 389 | $324,000 | 55 days | 93.4% | $177 |
| Twelve months ending September 20, 2026 | 1,394 | $318,690 | 66 days | 93.5% | $166 |
| Prior twelve months (September 21, 2024 to September 20, 2025) | 1,569 | $332,040 | 66 days | 93.6% | $179 |
Per square foot the gap is wider, $166 against $179, down 7.1%. On the shorter basis the median was $307,000 against $324,000 in the same 90 days of 2025, down 5.2%, on 369 sales against 389, down 5.1%. Every row of Table 3 is its own measurement on its own dates, and a seller anchored to a 2025 number should read what is your Kyle home worth next to a brand-new house?
Buda measured 4.9 months over these 90 days, Kyle 4.9, Lockhart 5.9 and San Marcos 7.2. Kyle and Buda read seller’s market, Lockhart balanced and San Marcos buyer’s market; each of those labels covers a whole town, and what a house is priced at moves it between them.

| Lockhart | 69 | $310,000 | 53 days | 92.9% | 136 | 5.9 | balanced |
Price discipline separates the four further than supply does: 95.3% of original asking in Buda, 94.7% in Kyle, 92.9% in Lockhart and 92.8% in San Marcos.
It survives in the bands doing the volume and breaks above $450,000. A band’s label covers that band and nothing else, the price a house lists at decides which band it argues in, and a band with fewer than ten sales over the 90 days is thin, so its row below is read on the twelve months ending September 20, 2026.
Table 5. Kyle by price band, Residential; closings by sale price (90 days ending September 20, 2026), actives by asking price (as of September 21, 2026). WIR label rule: under 5.5 months seller’s, 5.5 to 6.5 balanced, over 6.5 buyer’s. A band’s label is for that band only, and a price point changes which market a home is in; the 90-day label is published only where the band had at least 10 closings, the twelve-month basis is used and named where it had fewer, and no median is published under 5.

$250,000 to $299,999 recorded 89 sales at 4.0 months, $200,000 to $249,999 recorded 71 at 3.5, seller’s market in those two bands alone. $300,000 to $349,999 holds 147 listings, more than any other band, on 75 sales at 5.9 months, which reads balanced there, while $450,000 to $499,999 recorded 15 sales at 6.6 months for a buyer’s-market label in that band; the price a house carries decides which of them applies to it.
The four bands above $500,000 are thin. Table 5 reads them on the twelve months ending September 20, 2026, at 8.7, 6.2, 7.6 and 17.5 months going up the ladder, which on that basis is balanced from $550,000 to $599,999 and buyer’s market in the other three, each label belonging to its own band and to no other price.
Builders account for 278 of the 598 listings (46.5%) under 22 names, asking a median $340,494 where 320 resale listings ask $315,000, and 175 builder listings have come off their original price. Names and communities are on what is your Kyle home competing against right now?
Whether the town row fits your address comes down to the price it would list at and whether a builder still has stock a few streets away. If that is you, the fastest way to know is to run your address.

Months of supply is the number I watch. It means: if no more homes came on the market, how long would it take to sell everything listed at the pace homes are selling now. The right company sells a lot faster than the average listing.
Kyle measured 4.9 months for the 90 days ending September 20, 2026 against the metro’s 5.6, and 5.1 months on the twelve months ending September 20, 2026. Each of those figures belongs to a whole town at once, and a price point changes which market a home is in.
