Get to know Splendora

Welcome to Splendora

Splendora ISD serves the city. Prices run below the metro median, and Peach Creek puts a meaningful share of listings inside a FEMA special flood hazard area.

A meaningful minority of listings sit inside a FEMA special flood hazard area — the zone is on every listing here. A sizeable minority of listings sit on an acre or more, so the lot-size spread is wider than in the subdivision cities. Builders carry this market: well over half of what is listed is new construction. What follows is live: our MLS feed refreshes the figures on this page hourly.

Balanced market

Splendora is a balanced market right now — about 5.7 months of inventory, yet roughly 46% of active sellers have already cut their price, so well-prepared buyers still have room to negotiate. The median home sells around $235,000, and the typical listing has truly been on the market about 129 days.

Each figure is compared with the same period last year. Where last year's data isn't in our feed yet, you'll see "—".

it's dozens
