Celina's housing market is still moving, but the newest public data points to a market with more supply, softer prices and a bigger role for builder competition.
According to Realtor.com's Celina market summary, with key indicators listed as of April 2026, the city had 2,051 active listings, 401 rental properties, a $585,000 median listing price and a $546,052 median sold price. The same report put the median price at $213 per square foot and the median days on market at 41.
The headline shift is inventory. Realtor.com reported active listings up 3.46% from a year earlier, up 17.25% from the previous month and up 105.50% over three years. At the same time, Celina's median listing price was down 4.10% year over year, while median sold price was down 4.70% year over year.
That combination matters in a fast-growing city. Buyers have more homes to compare than they did a year ago, but sellers are facing a pricing environment that is less forgiving than the peak years. Realtor.com described Celina as a buyer's market in March 2026 and reported a 96% sale-to-list price ratio, with homes selling 3.78% below asking price on average.
A Softer Sale Picture
Redfin's March 2026 market read also pointed to lower prices and longer negotiations. Redfin reported a $518,995 median sale price, down 8.4% year over year, with 76 homes sold compared with 64 a year earlier. Its median days on market was 150, up from 68 one year earlier.
Redfin's sale-to-list ratio was 96.1%, down 0.82 points year over year, and its Compete Score for Celina was 19, which Redfin labels as not very competitive. The company said average homes sell for about 4% below list price and go pending in around 110 days, while hot homes go pending in around 46 days.
Zillow's April 30, 2026, home-value page gives another view of the slowdown. Zillow reported a $548,646 average home value in Celina, down 9.8% over the past year. It listed 448 homes for sale, 126 new listings and a typical pending time of around 55 days. Zillow's March 31 sale data showed a $539,283 median sale price and a $579,833 median list price, with 83.8% of sales under list price.
Orchard's latest 30-day Celina snapshot, accessed June 8, 2026, reported a $470,000 median sale price, down 10.5% year over year, and 13.43 months of supply, up from 5.13 months one year earlier. Orchard also reported 920 homes for sale, 223 new listings and price drops on 74.07% of listed homes.
The sources do not match perfectly because they use different data windows and definitions. But the direction is broadly similar: more supply, lower year-over-year price readings and more room for buyers to press on price.
Builders Remain Central
New construction is a defining part of Celina's market. Realtor.com's new-construction search page for Celina, accessed June 8, 2026, showed 2,425 new-construction homes. The page listed builders and communities from Shaddock Homes, Trophy Signature Homes, Pulte Homes, American Legend Homes, Coventry Homes, Ashton Woods, Normandy Homes, Highland Homes, Taylor Morrison, Beazer Homes and D.R. Horton.
The same page marked some listings with builder promotions, reduced rates, flex cash or cash at closing. Those labels show how builders are competing for buyers, but the exact terms depend on each builder's current offer, lender rules and buyer qualifications.
