Canyon Lake, TX Housing Market 2026: What Homes Actually Sell For

If you invest in or around Canyon Lake, the number that matters is what homes actually close for, not what sellers are asking. Here is what Canyon Lake sale prices look like right now, built from the closings Resideline tracked over the last six months, as of September 2026.

The snapshot

  • Closings tracked, last 6 months: 238
  • Median sold price, last 6 months: $399,450
  • Median sold $/sqft, last 6 months: $231
  • Middle half of sales closed between: $275,000 and $649,999
One thing to know about Texas data: Texas is a non-disclosure state, which means sale prices are not public record. The sold figures above come from closings Resideline tracked directly.

What the numbers say

Resideline tracked 238 closed sales in Canyon Lake over the last six months, with a median closing price of $399,450. That median is the midpoint of what buyers actually paid, not what sellers hoped to get, which is why it moves differently from the asking prices you see on listing sites. The middle half of those sales closed between $275,000 and $649,999. That spread matters more than the headline median: where a specific property sits inside it decides whether the citywide number helps you or misleads you. These are the closings Resideline tracks and may differ from complete county or municipal records. 91% of the Canyon Lake closings we track here are single-family houses, so these figures primarily reflect that segment, and the citywide $/sqft figure primarily reflects that segment as well. Across the 235 closings with usable living area, the middle half sold between $189 and $285 per square foot.

Medians hide the shape of a market. The distribution above covers the closed sales Resideline tracked in Canyon Lake over the last six months that carry a usable sale date, trimmed to the 5th through 95th percentile, with the middle half of sales closing between $275,000 and $649,999. Among the 127 Texas markets with a published band, Canyon Lake's middle-half spread ($275,000 to $649,999) ranks 125th from the narrowest. Where your target property sits inside that spread matters more than the citywide median. Measured as the ratio of the upper to the lower quartile, its middle-half spread ranks in the 89th percentile of the 2,187 US markets in Resideline's national Market Watch set, on data as of September 4, 2026.

How long a sale takes here

  • Listed to under contract: a median of 77 days, across 172 Canyon Lake closings Resideline tracked in the last six months
  • Contract to closing: a median of 21 days, across 170 Canyon Lake closings Resideline tracked in the last six months
Both are measured from the closings themselves, not from listing inventory. Each sale is timed using its own listing and contract dates. That is why these counts are smaller than the 238 closings above: a sale is counted here only when we hold both of its dates.

The Canyon Lake angle

Anyone quoting one figure for Canyon Lake is compressing a lot of variation. The gap between $275,000 and $649,999 is wider than most markets we track, and that gap only covers the middle half of the closings we tracked, so the record set extends beyond it in both directions. $399,450 still tells you where 238 divides into halves, which is worth knowing. It does not tell you where an individual property belongs, and in a spread out market the distance between the midpoint and a specific address can be large without anything unusual being involved. Match property type, hold size to a narrow range, and let those closings produce the estimate; use the quartiles afterwards as a plausibility check. Since the upper half of the band is the wider half, a comp set that leans toward the larger end of the market overstates further than an equally mismatched modest set understates.

From market read to offer price

A market read is the backdrop. The decision still comes down to one property and one number: what it is actually worth and what you should pay. Every Resideline report opens with this same market snapshot for the subject's exact ZIP code, then gives you the property's value, the sold comps behind it, and a market rent estimate. Pricing a specific deal? The free ARV calculator and rental property calculator run the numbers in about a minute.

And we show our work. Every estimate is frozen while the home is for sale, so it cannot be revised once the sale price is known. Grading it is a different matter in Texas: because sale prices are not public record here, a confirmed closing price reaches us for only a small share of Texas homes, and most Texas estimates stay frozen and ungraded. The accuracy scoreboard is therefore a national record rather than a Texas one. See the live accuracy dashboard for the receipts, or read how the Area Market Snapshot works.

Run any Canyon Lake address through Resideline and you will see the local market and the property's value together, in one report.

What is the typical price per square foot in Canyon Lake?

Among qualifying Canyon Lake closings Resideline tracked over the last six months, the median sold price per square foot was $231, measured across 235 sales with usable living area. Median is used rather than average because outliers distort the mean.

What does the gap between the quartiles tell me about Canyon Lake?

That the middle half of closings covers a wider range than most markets we track. It is a statement about variety in what sold, not about direction. Practically, it means the citywide midpoint has to travel a long way to reach either edge of the ordinary market, so an estimate built by nudging that midpoint will usually miss. Use the quartiles to judge whether a comp based estimate is plausible, and expect the comps themselves to determine where in the range the property sits.
