What do these Woodlands numbers measure?
The market figures at the head of this page are as of September 2026. The median is the middle sale, with as many sales above it as below. The median Woodlands sale was $735,000, the median home spent 59 days on the market before it sold, buyers paid 98.3 percent of the asking price, and the price per square foot was $246.
1,507 homes sold over the twelve months to September 2026. Redfin's own figures, for all home types, count sales three months at a time: 375 sales in September through November 2025, 299 in December through February, 491 in March through May and 528 in June through August 2026.
Why describe the whole community rather than one village or ZIP code?
Because this site covers the whole community. Redfin's The Woodlands area is the whole community too: its boundary takes in Creekside Park, the village in Harris County, as well as the Montgomery County villages, and its 528 sales for June through August equal the eight village counts Redfin publishes added together: 98 in Creekside Park, 93 in Cochran's Crossing, 90 in Alden Bridge, 79 in Sterling Ridge, 69 in Grogan's Mill, 50 in Panther Creek, 32 in Indian Springs and 17 in College Park.
A single village's page would describe one part of the market, and a ZIP code's boundary is drawn for mail rather than to match the community, so neither stands in for The Woodlands as a whole.
How much does a house cost in each Woodlands village?
It depends heavily on the village. Creekside Park's median, $818,605, was more than twice College Park's $363,575 over the same three months. Creekside Park also carries the highest tax rate in The Woodlands, because it is in Harris County and the Tomball Independent School District, so a buyer comparing villages at one price is comparing tax bills as well as houses.
Several village medians fell sharply from a year earlier: 18.7% in Indian Springs, 13.5% in Grogan's Mill and 12.8% in Panther Creek. Indian Springs had only 32 sales in the three months and College Park 17, and with so few sales a handful of large or small houses can move the median a long way, so read the change in a small village as a signal to check, not a verdict.
| Village | Median sale price | Change from a year earlier | Homes sold | Median days on market | Median price per square foot |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Creekside Park | $818,605 | -1.8% | 98 | 26 | $247 |
| Sterling Ridge | $729,648 | -3.2% | 79 | 25 | $197 |
| Indian Springs | $640,691 | -18.7% | 32 | 22 | $251 |
| Cochran's Crossing | $613,204 | -3.1% | 93 | 23 | $234 |
| Alden Bridge | $483,267 | -8.5% | 90 | 27 | $203 |
| Grogan's Mill | $423,795 | -13.5% | 69 | 40 | $191 |
| Panther Creek | $401,806 | -12.8% | 50 | 25 | $225 |
| College Park | $363,575 | -0.38% | 17 | 54 | $188 |
Is the Woodlands market moving toward buyers?
Compared with a year earlier, yes, on Redfin's figures for June through August 2026. Homes took a median eight days longer to sell than the summer before, 39.3% of the homes Redfin tracked had a price cut, 2.7 points more than a year earlier, and 12.8% sold above their asking price, 4.1 points fewer. Redfin's sale-to-list figure was a little lower than in 2025. As of September 2026, buyers paid 98.3 percent of asking on the median sale.
The number of sales held steady, 528 against 527 in the same months of 2025, so the change is in how long homes wait and how often sellers cut the price, not in how many homes sell.
What do these market numbers leave out?
Anything particular to one house. Redfin's village and community figures mix houses, townhomes and condominiums, and a median says nothing about a home's size, age, lot or condition. Redfin's sold counts come from its calculations on data from the listing service and public records, and any count built from listings can miss a private sale. To price one Woodlands house, compare it with recent sales in its own section and utility district, which also share its tax rate.
Questions & answers
The Woodlands questions, answered
What is the median home price in The Woodlands?
The median sale price in The Woodlands was $735,000 as of September 2026. Redfin's own median for June through August 2026, for an area that covers the whole community with Creekside Park included, was 4.0% lower than in the same months of 2025, and its figures take in houses, townhomes and condominiums together.
The median hides a wide spread between villages. For June through August 2026, Redfin's village medians ran from $363,575 in College Park and $401,806 in Panther Creek to $729,648 in Sterling Ridge and $818,605 in Creekside Park. A price that is high for one village can be low for another, so compare a home with recent sales in its own section before reading anything into the community median.
How long does it take to sell a house in The Woodlands?
Homes in The Woodlands sold after a median 59 days on the market as of September 2026, and buyers paid 98.3 percent of the asking price on the median sale. In Redfin's figures for June through August 2026, the median was eight days longer than in the same months of 2025, and 39.3% of homes had a price cut before selling.
Village medians ranged from 22 days in Indian Springs to 40 in Grogan's Mill and 54 in College Park, the village with the fewest sales. The community figure also moves through the year: Redfin's median was 51 days in the three months to February 2026 and 22 in the three months to June, so compare a listing with the same months of the year before.
How many homes sell in The Woodlands in a year?
1,507 homes sold in The Woodlands in the twelve months to September 2026. Redfin, which counts sales three months at a time, had its busiest window in June through August 2026, with 528 sales, and its slowest in December 2025 through February 2026, with 299. Redfin's counts come from listing service data and public records.
The four windows were 375 sales in September through November 2025, 299 in December through February, 491 in March through May and 528 in June through August. The summer count matched the year before almost exactly, 528 against 527, so the number of sales has held steady even as homes take longer to sell and more sellers cut their price.
What is the price per square foot in The Woodlands?
The sale price per square foot in The Woodlands was $246 as of September 2026. Redfin's own median for June through August 2026 was 0.5% higher than a year earlier, and by village it ranged from $188 in College Park and $191 in Grogan's Mill to $247 in Creekside Park and $251 in Indian Springs.
Price per square foot mixes old and new houses, large lots and small ones, and houses with townhomes. In a village where most homes are older, it says as much about age and condition as about location. Use it to sort a shortlist, then price a particular house against recent sales of similar size and age in its own section.
Are sellers in The Woodlands cutting prices?
More of them than a year ago. In Redfin's figures for June through August 2026, 39.3% of homes in The Woodlands had a price cut, 2.7 points more than a year earlier, and 12.8% sold above their asking price, 4.1 points fewer. As of September 2026, the median sale closed at 98.3 percent of the asking price.
The median home also spent longer on the market in Redfin's figures, eight days more than a year earlier, while the number of sales held steady. For a seller, that points to pricing from recent sales in the same section rather than from last year's asking prices. For a buyer, it means more sellers than last year have already moved off their first asking price.
