Recent data show a more balanced market emerging. In January 2026, the median sale price was about $204,000, a year-over-year dip of just over 7%, according to Redfin. Realtor.com reports roughly 436 active listings with a median listing price near $189,950 and homes taking about three months to sell on average.
Statewide research from Texas A&M’s Real Estate Research Center notes active listings in Texarkana have risen sharply compared to a year ago, signaling more supply and softer competition among sellers. For buyers, that can translate to more negotiating room and fewer bidding wars than in prior years.
What’s for Sale
Zillow shows more than 400 homes on the market, ranging from mid-$100Ks for older three- and four-bedroom properties to $450K+ for updated homes in established neighborhoods. Popular areas include Highland Park, Beverly Heights, and parts of 75503, where larger lots and newer construction are common.
Single-family homes dominate local inventory, though small multifamily and investment properties are also available. Days on market suggest well-priced, updated homes are moving faster than properties needing repairs.
Rental & Affordability Trends
With median rents around $1,380, renting remains a significant monthly expense relative to entry-level home prices. As mortgage rates fluctuate in early 2026, affordability continues to hinge on financing terms and property taxes as much as list price.
Overall, Texarkana is shifting toward a steadier pace: more choices for buyers, realistic pricing for sellers, and gradual adjustments rather than sharp swings.
