Month-Over-Month Trends

Year-Over-Year Comparison

Compared to March 2025, the median sale price is 2.8% up (from $645,000 to $663,000). Sales volume is 7.7% up year-over-year.

What This Means

Canyon Lake's housing market is showing some interesting contradictions this March. While median prices jumped nearly 11 percent from February, that monthly surge seems more tied to seasonal timing and which homes happened to sell rather than a broader price acceleration. The year-over-year picture is more telling: prices are up just 2.8 percent, suggesting the market has cooled considerably compared to previous years. Meanwhile, sales volume dipped slightly from February but remains stronger than last year, indicating steady buyer interest despite higher mortgage rates keeping purchasing power constrained.

What's really notable is how long homes are lingering on the market. The 94-day average, while improving slightly from last month, is still relatively sluggish for spring. That's reflected in the 155 active listings sitting at a median ask of $775,000, many already averaging 99 days unsold. Sellers are getting close to their asking prices (97.9 percent ratio), which is healthy, but the inventory buildup suggests a gradual shift toward a more balanced market. For buyers, this could mean more negotiating room as we move deeper into spring. For sellers, it might be time to reconsider pricing strategy rather than wait out the competition.
