Patrick's Quick Answer

The Redfin median days on market figures are: ZIP 78163 (Bulverde) 55 days, Aug 2026; ZIP 78070 (Spring Branch) 86 days, Aug 2026; ZIP 78133 (Canyon Lake) 102 days, labeled June 2026 in the source, so pull that one the same day as the others before publishing. Redfin also reports the average home in 78163 sells for about 3% below list and goes pending in around 56 days, and around 87 days in 78070. The sale-to-list and price-drop story: 78163 at 97.1% sale-to-list with 47.4% of listings cutting price, 78070 at 97.8% with 58.2%, and 78133 at 96.5% with 49.3%. Sample sizes are 123 sales in 78163 and 99 in 78070, so small samples swing hard, and ZIP figures beat town averages.

Sellers across the 281 and 306 corridors want one number: how long does a listing take to move right now? The answer is a set of ZIP-level figures from Redfin, each labeled with its period, because a number without a date is not data.

The median days on market, with periods

78163 Bulverde55 days · Aug 2026
78070 Spring Branch86 days · Aug 2026
78133 Canyon Lake102 days · June 2026

Source: Redfin median days on market. The 78133 figure carries a different period label (June 2026) than the others, so re-pull it the same day as the others before publishing.

Pending time and the sale-to-list picture

Redfin also reports that the average home in 78163 sells for about 3% below list and goes pending in around 56 days, and around 87 days in 78070. Paired with the days-on-market medians, that tells you the full rhythm: a Bulverde listing typically finds its buyer in about two months, a Spring Branch listing in about three, and a Canyon Lake listing slower still in the period measured.

Sale-to-list ratios and price drop shares

78163 sale-to-list97.1%
78163 listings cutting price47.4%
78070 sale-to-list97.8%
78070 listings cutting price58.2%
78133 sale-to-list96.5%
78133 listings cutting price49.3%

Source: Redfin. 78163 and 78070 figures are for Aug 2026; the 78133 figure carries a June 2026 label.

A sale-to-list ratio under 100% means homes are closing below their list price, and a price-drop share near or above half means a large share of sellers are repositioning. That is the market context for pricing, and the direct comparison for how the builders' incentives shift buyer expectations is on the resale vs builder incentives page.

Sample sizes, and why ZIP figures win

The period covers 123 sales in 78163 and 99 in 78070. Those are small samples, and small samples swing hard: a handful of outlier sales can move a median by weeks. That is exactly why the ZIP-level figure beats a town average or a short-period trend, and why every figure here carries its period label. If you want the same day's figures for your exact subdivision, the honest move is a CMA built from closed MLS sales.

Why do ZIP figures beat town averages? Tap to expand
The sample sizes are 123 sales in 78163 and 99 in 78070 for the period, and small samples swing hard with a handful of outlier sales. ZIP figures cover the actual market area, so prefer ZIP-level figures over town averages or short-period trends.
Do these days-on-market numbers predict my home? Tap to expand
No. Median days on market is a market snapshot for the period stated, not a prediction for any single listing. Your home's time on market depends on price, condition, photos, access and the buyer pool for your exact property, which is what a comparative market analysis covers.
How long does it take to sell a house in New Braunfels right now? Tap to expand
Use a dated market figure with its period attached: Redfin reported 46.8% of New Braunfels listings cutting price in the same reporting period as the ZIP snapshots, with median homes selling below list across the area at 96.5% to 97.8% sale-to-list. The exact days-on-market answer for a New Braunfels property should be pulled from the same tracker for the same week as the ZIP figures here, because a number without a date is not data.
For those who recently sold in San Antonio, what was your experience? Tap to expand
The honest answer is per listing, not per town: in the dated market data, a large share of listings cut price and median homes sold below list (96.5% to 97.8% sale-to-list across the Hill Country ZIPs in the measured periods), so sellers who priced against recent closed sales closed faster and those who tested above the market sat and cut. Individual outcomes vary with price, condition, marketing and the buyer pool, which is why the reliable expectation comes from a CMA for your exact property, not from an anecdote.
