Montebello market data as of September 2026.
How many homes sold at Montebello in the last twelve months?
4 homes closed in the twelve months to September 2026, and three separate homes account for all of them, because one of them sold twice inside the window. Both numbers matter, and they answer different questions. If you are selling, 4 is the number of transactions you were competing with. If you are buying, three is the number of homes that actually became available.
Against the 98 homes Montebello holds, that is about four percent of the building by transaction and about three percent by homes turned over. The market-statistics feed behind this site records the same closings month for month: one in September 2025, one in November 2025, one in April 2026 and one in June 2026, with no closing at all in the four months between the second and the third.
One home was on the market when these figures were computed, and it was under contract. That is a dated observation rather than a standing fact, and it was the whole of the building's visible supply. The same feed reports 6.0 months of inventory, which is how long the homes for sale would last at the pace this building sells them, and with one home listed it is describing that one home.
| Home | Floor | Square feet | Asking price | Days on market | Closed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 234 | 23 | 4,848 | $2,750,000 | not published | 8 September 2025 |
| 184 | 18 | 4,848 | $2,695,000 | 55 | 7 November 2025 |
| 102 | 10 | 3,446 | $1,599,000 | 16 | 10 April 2026 |

Which home sold twice, and what did the round trip cost?
Home 234, on the twenty-third floor. It closed on 8 September 2025 against an asking price of $2,750,000. Working back from the 169 days it later spent on the market, it was listed again about three months after that closing, and it changed hands a second time in June 2026 against an asking price of $2,700,000. Nine months between the two closings, and the second asking price sat $50,000 below the first. The home measures 4,848 square feet.
This page will not tell you that the second seller lost money. Both closings fall inside the same reported price band, so the two sale prices cannot be told apart from the public record. What can be stated is what the sequence cost whatever the prices were.
On an asking price of $2,700,000, a combined six percent in commission and closing costs is about $162,000. Nine months of this home's monthly assessment at $4,993 is about $44,900. Nine months of property tax at 2.24 percent, the 2026 median rate the feed reports for this building, is about $45,400. Together that is on the order of $250,000 to move a home that came back to the market asking less than it left at.
Three of those inputs are assumptions and the page is better for saying so. Six percent is a placeholder you should replace with your own agreement, because commission is negotiable and is settled between a seller and their broker. The $4,993 is what this one home was reported to pay each month, not a building-wide figure. The tax rate is a median across homes sold here in 2026 rather than this home's own rate.
Has the market at Montebello moved over ten years?
Over the nine complete years the market-statistics feed behind this site carries, the median sale price went from $1,602,500 in 2017 to $2,512,000 in 2025, while the median price per square foot finished close to where it began. Volume ran between one and six homes a year in every one of those years.
The feed's own ten-year comparison puts the median sale price up about 25 percent and the median price per square foot down about nine percent over the same period. Those two figures move in opposite directions because the homes that sold got larger, not because the rate per foot rose. The current year is a part year, and its figures open this page.
For a seller the useful reading is the volume column rather than the price columns. A building that records between one and six sales a year gives any single home very few comparable sales to price against, and the ones it gives are years apart.
| Year | Homes sold | Median sale price | Median price per sq ft |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2017 | 4 | $1,602,500 | $515 |
| 2018 | 1 | $2,500,000 | $522 |
| 2019 | 3 | $1,095,000 | $410 |
| 2020 | 2 | $1,066,000 | $381 |
| 2021 | 4 | $1,080,500 | $391 |
| 2022 | 6 | $1,650,000 | $424 |
| 2023 | 3 | $1,250,000 | $504 |
| 2024 | 5 | $2,665,000 | $482 |
| 2025 | 6 | $2,512,000 | $515 |
Why was a count of six published and then corrected to four?
An earlier count for this window said six. The unit-by-unit census says four, and the market-statistics feed behind this site says 4. The 6.0 months of inventory reported against a single listed home implies a pace of about four sales a year, which agrees with the census and not with six.
The correction is published here rather than quietly applied, because a count is worth exactly as much as the rows behind it. The rows are in the table above. Any count on this site that cannot show its rows is not on this site.
Why is every price named for a home on this page an asking price?
Texas law makes a sale price given voluntarily to an appraisal district confidential and closed to public inspection, and the local listing service releases closed prices only as ranges. So the only figure that can be stated exactly for a named home in this building is what that home asked.
The median sale price and price per square foot that open this page are a different kind of figure. They are computed by the market-statistics feed behind this site across the homes that sold, and they are medians of a set rather than the price of any one home. Neither can be traced back to a named address, which is the point of the arrangement.
What can this page not tell you?
It cannot tell you what any of these homes sold for. Every price named for a home above is an asking price.
It cannot tell you how the two sale prices compared, so it cannot settle whether the home that sold twice sold for less the second time. Its asking price fell by $50,000. What it fetched is not published either way.
It cannot tell you what the marketing period was for the September 2025 closing, because that listing published none. The median of 55 days rests on the three that did.
It cannot tell you this building's own tax rate, or any one home's. The rate used above is a median the feed computes across homes sold here.
And it cannot tell you what is on the market this month. One home was listed and under contract when these figures were computed on September 2026, and that changes without notice.
Questions & answers
Montebello questions, answered
How many homes sell at Montebello in a year?
4 homes closed at Montebello in the trailing twelve months, across three separate homes, because one of them sold twice inside the window. The building holds 98 homes, so that is roughly four percent of it by transaction and roughly three percent by homes that actually turned over.
Over the nine complete years the market-statistics feed behind this site carries, the building has recorded between one and six sales a year. That is the number a seller here has to plan around. A market that produces two or three closings a year gives any one home very few recent comparable sales, and the ones it does give are often years apart and in a different part of the building. It also means a single sale moves the building's median a long way, which is why no headline figure on this site is offered as a valuation. What a market this thin does to the way a home here has to be priced is the subject of the guide to selling at Montebello.
What is the median sale price at Montebello?
The median sale price is $1,996,300, at an average of $471 per square foot, computed by the market-statistics feed behind this site on September 2026. Homes closed at about 91.8 percent of their asking price and the median home went under contract after 94 days.
Read that median as a description of the few homes that sold rather than as a level the building agreed on. It rests on a handful of transactions, and in a building where four homes a year change hands the mix decides the number: a year with two penthouses in it and a year with two of the smallest plans in it produce medians hundreds of thousands of dollars apart with nothing having changed about the building. A home's own value here is set by its plan, its floor, its exposure and its condition, and the comparable set for any given home is three or four properties rather than 98. Ask for that set by name before you set an asking price.
Is it true that a home at Montebello sold twice in one year?
Yes. Home 234 closed on 8 September 2025 asking $2,750,000, returned to the market about three months later, and closed again in June 2026 asking $2,700,000. Nine months separated the two closings, and the second asking price sat $50,000 below the first. The home measures 4,848 square feet on the twenty-third floor.
This site will not tell you the second seller lost money, because sale prices in Texas are published only as ranges and both closings fall inside the same range. What can be stated is what the sequence cost regardless of price: about $162,000 in commission and closing costs at a placeholder six percent, about $44,900 in nine months of assessments, and about $45,400 in nine months of property tax at the median rate the feed reports for this building. That is on the order of $250,000 to move a home that returned to the market asking less than it left at. No listing portal shows this, because a portal shows homes rather than the sequence one home goes through. The arithmetic behind that figure, and the assumptions inside it, is worked through in the guide to selling at Montebello.
How long does it take to sell a home at Montebello?
There is no typical answer here, and the spread is the answer. Of the four closings in the trailing twelve months, three published a marketing period: 16 days, 55 days and 169 days. The median of those three is 55, and the longest sat more than ten times the shortest.
The market-statistics feed behind this site reports a median of 94 days across the homes it counts, which is a different set measured a different way, and neither figure is a forecast for your home. A spread of ten to one in a four-transaction year measures something real. It is the difference between a home priced against its own comparable plans and a home priced against the building's headline figures, and it is the single most useful thing on this site for anyone about to name a number. Plan around the range rather than the median, and budget the carrying cost for the long end of it rather than the short one.
Have prices at Montebello gone up over the last ten years?
The median sale price has, and the rate per square foot has not. The market-statistics feed behind this site puts the median sale price up about 25 percent over ten years and the median price per square foot down about nine percent, which means the homes that sold got larger rather than dearer per foot.
Year by year the median sale price ran from $1,602,500 in 2017 to $2,512,000 in 2025, and the median price per square foot finished close to where it started. In a building that records between one and six sales a year, a year-on-year series is a record of which homes happened to sell rather than a price index, and the one-year change the feed reports is steep in both directions for that reason. For a seller the volume column is worth more than the price columns, because it says how many other homes you would be competing with. What that record does and does not license you to claim about your own home is covered in the guide to selling at Montebello.
Why does this site quote asking prices rather than sale prices?
Because Texas does not publish sale prices. State law makes a price given voluntarily to an appraisal district confidential, and the local listing service releases closed prices only as ranges, so the only figure that can be stated exactly for a named home is what that home asked for itself.
Every price this site names for an individual home is therefore an asking price and is labeled as one. The medians are a different kind of figure: they are computed across the homes that sold, by the market-statistics feed behind this site, and no single address can be recovered from them. That arrangement is why a seller in Texas is working with less public information than a seller in a disclosure state, and why a comparable set someone hands you is a set of asking prices with a range attached rather than a list of what homes fetched. Ask whoever prices your home to say which of the two they are showing you, on every line.
