There are thousands of single-family homes for sale across the Rio Grande Valley, but there are many more homes than buyers, according to the most recent real estate data for September 2025. 

In the McAllen-Edinburg-Mission metro area, there are 3,144 active listings of homes on the market, a 30% increase compared to last September. 

That means there’s 9.2 months of housing inventory, which means it’s a buyer’s, not a seller’s market. About 6 months of inventory is considered a stable market. 

In the McAllen metro, the number of homes sold in September increased by less than 1% over the year to 371 sales, with a median price of $240,000 —the highest home price since 2005.
