Is the housing market slowing down in Kaufman County, TX?
Yes — sales activity in Kaufman County, TX is down. 267 homes sold during May 2026, against 377 in the same months a year earlier, a drop of 29%.
This page is about how many homes changed hands, not what they cost. The two move separately: prices are set by the homes that did sell, and volume tells you how many people managed to transact at all. A market can hold its prices while activity quietly drains out of it.
The change clears both tests we require before naming a direction: it is more than 3% in relative terms, and it is larger than the ordinary month-to-month variation you would expect on a market that sells 267 homes at a time.
The longer view, all measured over the May window so the season is held constant: 363 homes sold two years ago, 377 last year, 267 now. Activity is meaningfully below where it was two years ago.
What is on the shelf next to what is selling: 1,491 homes were on the market in Kaufman County, TX, and 267 sold. At that pace it would take about 5.6 months to clear them all. There are more homes for sale than buyers. Buyers have the edge.
Every comparison on this page is to the SAME calendar months a year earlier, never to last month. Home sales roughly double between January and May in most of the country, so a month-over-month reading would tell you about the season and nothing about the market.
