Market snapshot
According to Redfin, the median sale price in January 2026 reached about $274K, a 12.7% increase from the same month last year. Twenty-three homes sold during the month, nearly double last year’s total, though properties averaged 156 days on market, significantly longer than a year ago.
Zillow’s Home Value Index shows a typical home value near $276K, up 3% year over year as of late January. The site also reports roughly 85 homes for sale at the end of January and 17 new listings during the month, suggesting steady but not surging supply.
Statewide, Louisiana’s median sale price was about $259K in February, up 3.6% year over year, with sales volume slightly lower and inventory edging higher. That broader backdrop reflects a market adjusting to affordability pressures while remaining relatively stable.
What’s for sale
Active listings in Broussard include a mix of newer construction, established subdivision homes, and larger properties on spacious lots. Redfin’s listings show several 2026-built homes alongside resale properties that have been on the market for multiple months, giving buyers more negotiating room than during peak frenzy periods.
With median list prices in the mid-$300Ks earlier this year, pricing varies widely by size, age, and neighborhood amenities. Buyers are taking more time, and well-priced homes appear to move faster than those testing higher price points.
Outlook
Local reporting in late February described the Acadiana market as starting 2026 with renewed activity, even as seasonal patterns bring higher inventory and measured buyer demand. If mortgage rates stabilize and spring traffic increases, the coming months will show whether price growth continues at its current pace or levels off.
