Cumby Home Values

Cumby's housing stock is defined by acreage — most listings sit on two to twelve acres, with a handful stretching into ranch-scale parcels of seventy-plus. Construction spans from a 1910 farmhouse with original hardwood floors to 2023-built open-concept homes with granite kitchens and stained concrete. Metal-frame construction appears frequently, prized for low maintenance in this climate. Detached workshops and horse barns are standard amenities, not extras. Mobile homes on multi-acre ranchettes fill the mid-tier. The building pattern follows county roads rather than subdivisions, with properties clustered along the FM 499 and I-30 corridor between Greenville and Sulphur Springs.

Price per square foot in Cumby tells a divergent story heading into mid-2026. Based on MLS data for 2026-05 closings in Cumby, the trailing three-month median landed near $170 per square foot — roughly a ten percent discount to the twelve-month baseline of $188 — while the year-over-year price shift of more than a quarter signals that the market has repriced substantially from where it stood a year ago. Sellers gave back about six cents on the dollar at closing over the full year, and more than half of all transactions settled below original asking. The limited sample of roughly eighteen closings this quarter means these directional signals carry wider-than-usual confidence intervals.

New listing activity in Cumby has outpaced pending contract formation in the most recent quarter, with new listings running above pending count and active supply holding at roughly three times the pending total. At around six months of supply, the pipeline sits clearly in buyer-favorable territory. The gap between available homes and active buyers suggests downward pressure on negotiated outcomes is likely to persist in the near term, though the modest transaction volume warrants caution in reading the trend as definitive.
