What This Means for You
For Buyers
Bryan offers a more affordable entry point, but College Station’s growing inventory gives you more selection. With homes taking longer to sell in both markets, buyers may have more room to negotiate.
For Sellers
Pricing is everything right now. In Bryan, where prices dipped, buyers are quick to jump on well-priced homes. In College Station, sellers still hold some advantage, but patience is key as days on market stretch longer.
The big picture? Our market is balancing out. Inventory is rising, timelines are stretching, and buyers are showing up, but success comes down to pricing and strategy.
