The average property value for Lubbock County, Texas, is up again this year.

Amid ongoing strong housing demand, home sales in Central Texas climbed to a new high for March, as did the median home-sale price, the Austin Board of Realtors said.

The housing market in Houston picked up in March as interest rates fell and the supply of properties for sale grew to its highest level in five months.

North Texas home sales rose slightly in March, but the 1% year-over-year gain in sales of houses by real estate agents wasn't enough to erase declines earlier in the year.

Homebuilders eased back on Dallas-Fort Worth construction in the early months of 2019.

Lennar, one of Houston's largest homebuilders, has launched a line of communities that aims to offer new houses in an increasingly rare affordable price segment serving first-time buyers.

Houston home shoppers were able to find homes two weeks faster this past winter than they did a year ago at the same time, a new report shows.

While housing prices in North Texas have stopped soaring higher, homeownership is still unaffordable for the majority of Dallas-Fort Worth residents.

Central Texas home sales climbed 6% last month, as sales volume reached its highest level on record for any February, the Austin Board of Realtors said.
