Spring is here, and so is our March 2026 data - and honestly, the numbers are telling a pretty encouraging story for the Mueller real estate market. Kathy Sokolic and Ashley Jackson from Mueller Residential Group sat down to dig through the latest closed sales data across both single-family homes and townhomes, and here's what we found.

Single-Family Homes: February vs. March 2026

Let's start with single-family homes, where we saw a nice uptick in activity heading into spring.

• Closed sales: 4 in March, up from 3 in February

• Median sales price: $1,140,000

• Median price per square foot: $473

• Median year built: 2019

• Median sale-to-list price ratio: 99%

The newer build year is worth noting here. The homes that closed in March were built around 2019, meaning buyers were largely picking up properties with updated finishes and modern layouts - the kind of product that commands a premium in Mueller's market. And at $473 per square foot, that tracks.

The stat we love most? That 99% sale-to-list ratio. That means sellers are pricing realistically and buyers are showing up ready to transact. There's no dramatic discounting happening, and there's no wishful overpricing dragging things out. That kind of alignment is a healthy sign for the market overall.

Townhomes: February vs. March 2026

Townhomes had a strong March as well, with volume picking up noticeably from the previous month.

• Closed sales: 6 in March, up from 4 in February

• Median price per square foot: $408 (up from $385 in February)

• Median year built: 2020 (up from 2014 in February)

• Median sale-to-list price ratio: 99.1%

The jump in price per square foot - from $385 to $408 - lines up directly with the shift in median build year. The townhomes that sold in March were newer, and newer product in Mueller is fetching more per square foot. That's not surprising, but it's a useful data point if you're trying to price or evaluate a townhome right now.

It reinforces something we've been seeing consistently: buyers want move-in ready. Whether that means fresh paint, on-trend finishes, or simply a clean, well-maintained home, buyers in Mueller are willing to pay for it - and they want a discount when they don't get it. If you're planning to sell and your townhome needs work, pricing for that condition is the move.

Again, that 99.1% sale-to-list ratio holds. Sellers are getting very close to their asking price, and buyers are engaged. That's a stable, functional market.

What's Driving This Stability?

One word: interest rates. Rates have been hovering just under 6.5% and staying relatively steady - not dropping dramatically, but not spiking either. That consistency gives buyers enough confidence to move forward, and it's keeping demand in Mueller at a healthy level heading into spring.

We've been seeing this kind of stability settle into the market over the past several months, and March's numbers reflect that. There's no frenzy, but there's real, consistent activity - and that's actually a healthier environment for both buyers and sellers than the volatility we saw in previous years.

What This Means for Buyers

If you're shopping for a home in Mueller right now, inventory has improved compared to the tightest stretch of the market, and you have a real opportunity to find something well-priced. That said, move-in ready homes - especially newer single-family homes and townhomes - are still attracting strong offers close to list price. Come prepared, know your priorities, and work with someone who knows Mueller specifically.

What This Means for Sellers

Pricing realistically is working. The 99% sale-to-list ratio across both categories is proof of that. If you're thinking about listing, the spring market is a favorable window - buyer activity is picking up seasonally, and demand for well-presented Mueller homes remains solid. The key is condition and pricing strategy. Get those right and you'll find your buyer.
