How fast homes sell

Over the last 12 months, the monthly share of listings with a cut ran from 29% to 39%.

    For homes that sold in the search area we show around Taylor High School, the monthly average time on the market ran from 57 to 110 days over the 12 months to August 2026, counting days cumulatively when a home was relisted.

This is a set distance around the campus, not an attendance zone, so a home in these figures is not guaranteed to be zoned here. Source: our listing data.

    About 15% of the homes for sale in the search area we show around Taylor High School are in a FEMA special flood hazard area, based on the flood zone recorded for each listing.

Home prices and sales

  • What is the median sale price of homes near Taylor High School?

Your own price band, home age and size matter more than any area median.
