Longview, TX Housing Market 2026: Median Home Price & Sales Trends

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

The snapshot

• •Closings tracked, last 6 months: 580
• •Median sold price, last 6 months: $289,000

One thing to know about Texas data: Texas is a non-disclosure state, which means sale prices are not public record. Most valuation sites quietly have no closing data here. The sold figures above come from closings Resideline tracked directly, which is why we can show them at all, and why we track our accuracy publicly instead of asking you to take the number on faith.

What the numbers say

Resideline tracked 580 closed sales in Longview over the last six months, with a median closing price of $289,000. 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. These are the closings we track, not a complete county record, so treat the count as a large sample of the market rather than every sale that happened.

Median home price in Longview, TX (August 2026)

The median home price in Longview is $289,000, measured across the 580 closed sales Resideline tracked over the last six months.

The Longview angle

East Texas oil and gas services, healthcare and rail related manufacturing underpin Longview's economy, and its housing prices reflect a regional rather than metropolitan cost base. Six months of our data show 580 tracked closings at a median closing price of $289,000, an average near 97 a month. A 20 percent down payment at that median is $57,800. The city has a broad mix of postwar neighborhoods and newer development on the south and west sides, so the range around the median is wide. For buyers priced out of the Dallas Fort Worth suburbs, markets like Longview and neighboring Tyler are the usual next look.

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 and graded against the real closing price after it sells. The public scoreboard currently shows 3.21% median error across 6,276+ graded closings, across 50 states.
