How Much Is My House Worth in Houston?

What actually drives your home's value — and how to get a number you can trust.

Your Houston home's value is determined mainly by recent comparable sales in your area, your home's size and condition, its location and lot, and current market conditions. As of May 2026, the median single-family home in Greater Houston sold for $340,000. For an accurate figure, combine an instant estimate with a broker's comparative market analysis.

What determines your home's value

  • Comparable sales. What similar nearby homes actually sold for recently — the biggest factor.
  • Size and condition. Square footage, layout, updates, and overall condition.
  • Location and lot. Neighborhood, schools, lot size, and any flood considerations.
  • Market conditions. Inventory, days on market, and rates — see the live Houston market data.

Online estimates vs. a real CMA

Instant online tools are a useful starting point, but they can't see your finishes, upgrades, or condition. For an accurate number, pair an instant estimate with a broker's comparative market analysis (CMA). Get an instant figure with the home valuation tool, then have Alan refine it.

Why pricing accuracy matters

Price too high and the home sits; price too low and you leave money on the table. Alan's pricing is what helps his listings sell fast and for top dollar — see Selling in Houston and estimate your take-home with the Seller Net Sheet.
