Taos County Housing Market Summary
**Week Ending March 1, 2026**
This week showed stronger closed volume and faster transaction speed compared to the prior week, even as forward indicators (pending contracts) remained modest. The data suggests that homes already in the pipeline are converting, while new contract activity has not accelerated at the same pace.
Taos County recorded 7 residential home sales (Single-Family + Condo) this week; 1 land and 1 commercial closing. Pricing and time-on-market metrics below reflect the 7 residential home sales.
This report's closed-sales metrics reflect residential home sales (Single-Family + Condo) from the weekly sold feed.
Key Taos Real Estate Statistics — This Week
### Activity
• Closed Sales (Residential): 7
• New Listings: 33
• Pending Contracts: 6
• Price Adjustments: 29
• Expired Listings: 15
• Withdrawn Listings: 8
### Closed Sales Breakdown
• Residential (Single-Family + Condo): 7
• Land: 1
• Commercial: 1
Compared to the week ending February 22:
• Prior week recorded 6 residential closings; this week posted 7 residential and 9 total across all classes.
Week-over-week closed volume increased, while pending contracts decreased sharply (from 57 to 6). That divergence suggests this week reflects prior negotiated deals reaching the finish line rather than a new surge in demand.
Pricing — Residential (Single-Family + Condo Only)
Pricing statistics reflect the 7 residential home sales recorded this week.
• Median Sale Price: $580,000
• Average Sale Price: $640,714
• Weekly Price Range: $275,000 – $1,240,000
• Median Days on Market: 46
• Average Days on Market: 91
The median and average both moved higher this week. However, the 3-week rolling median remains well below this week's median, confirming that price-tier composition — not a broad repricing — drove the weekly jump.
Days on market declined meaningfully relative to the rolling window. That indicates homes that are priced accurately are transacting more efficiently, even in a selective environment.
Rolling 3-Week Context — Residential Market Behavior
Weekly totals fluctuate. A rolling three-week view provides structural clarity.
Last 3 Weeks (Residential Only):
• Total Residential Closings: 16
• 3-Week Median Sale Price: $490,000
• 3-Week Average Sale Price: $550,469
• 3-Week Median DOM: 80
• 3-Week Average DOM: 110.6
Interpretation:
The rolling median increased compared to the prior 3-week reading, while rolling days on market declined significantly. That combination reflects improved transaction efficiency without broad evidence of price compression. Buyers remain selective, but properly positioned homes are not lingering.
Active Inventory Context — Residential Market Structure
Active residential inventory currently sits at 167 listings.
Supply above $500,000 totals 102 listings (61% of inventory), while inventory below $400,000 totals 47 listings (28% of inventory). The distribution remains top-heavy, with depth concentrated in the mid-to-upper tiers.

Structural observations
• Three-bedroom homes dominate the core price tiers.
• Four-bedroom supply is heavily concentrated in $1M+ categories.
• Entry-level (under $300K) remains numerically limited relative to mid-tier supply.
Buyers in the $500K+ tiers have choice. Sub-$400K inventory remains comparatively constrained.

Is the Taos County Housing Market Slowing Down?
Not based on closed performance — but forward indicators softened.
Closings increased and days on market improved. However, pending contracts dropped sharply week-over-week. That signals a disciplined buyer pool rather than accelerating momentum.
The market is not declining. It is selective, price-aware, and inventory-sensitive.
Closed Sales Analysis — Residential
Seven residential sales do not define a trend. What matters:
• Rolling median is rising.
• Rolling DOM is falling.
• Inventory remains top-heavy.
This is a market where execution matters more than timing.
