Why the band matters
Where most sales happen tells you where the most comparable homes are, which usually means the clearest read on price. A home in a thinner band has fewer recent comparables, so its pricing leans on more judgment. Every buyer and seller in Harris County is weighing a different set of trade-offs, and waiting to decide is often the costliest choice.
