Reading the Leander Numbers
Leander draws buyers with master-planned communities and Red Line commuter rail access. New construction is the dominant supply story.
The Inventory Picture
Leander currently has 601 active listings and 3.7 months of supply at the April 2026 sales pace. Six months of supply is the generally accepted benchmark for a balanced market. Below that is a seller’s market; above it favors buyers.
That keeps Leander in seller’s market territory. Inventory remains tight relative to demand, especially at the entry-level and mid-range.
Months of Supply by Price Range
Not every price range moves the same way. Here’s how supply breaks down across the market:

| $300K-$500K | 256 | 78 | 3.3 |
| $500K-$750K | 154 | 41 | 3.8 |
| $750K-$1M | 82 | 16 | 5.1 |
