With all the talk about the economy, many are wondering about the stability of the real estate market in Pearland, TX. I recently read a great article about the state of the real estate market and found its data very encouraging, further solidifying what I already know about the Pearland real estate market.
In his "Is Real Estate on a Rebound?" article, Chris Kellog notes that pending home sales increased over 17% over last year. In Pearland, Texas, the real estate market has been consistently steady, and in fact, has been one of the strongest in the Houston metropolitan area.
Since August 1, 2010 there have been 187 homes listed in MLS in Pearland that have sold. The sales price of these homes range from $40,000 to $610,000. Currently, there are 145 homes pending waiting to go to closing. This high number further demonstrates that the Pearland housing market is strong!
