What did Horizon West homes sell for in September 2026?

Horizon West closed 130 homes in September 2026 at a median $635,000, up from $576,000 in August. Much of that change comes from the mix of homes that closed.

Town Center had the most Q3 closings (83), followed by Village of Bridgewater and Village H (71 each). Monthly counts by village are small, so we report villages by quarter. Village I builder guides: Serenade at Ovation guide, Northlake at Ovation guide and Osprey Ranch guide. See the Horizon West neighborhoods guide for village maps and context.

How long are Horizon West homes taking to sell?

Resale: the median cumulative days on market was 52 days in September 2026, up from 33.5 in August and 36 in July. For Q3 2026, the resale median was 37 days, compared with 34 in Q2.

All closings, including new construction: a median 43.5 days in September, up from 22 in August, and 32 days for Q3 versus 26 for Q2. Builder closings are often entered in the MLS at or near closing, so their days on market can read near zero; resale days on market is the better signal. See days on market by price band.

How much is for sale in Horizon West right now?

We do not yet publish a Horizon West-only active listing count, because some active listings cannot yet be matched to a village. For ZIP-wide context, the Stellar MLS showed 565 active detached homes and townhomes in all of ZIP 34787 on Oct 2, 2026, which covers much of Horizon West and areas outside it. Call or text 407-706-5000 for a current active-listing pull for any village.

How does this compare with last year?

A September 2025 comparison for this exact area is not in our current MLS dataset. For year-over-year context, Stellar MLS data via InfoSparks for all of Orange County shows September 2026 closed sales of 1,097 versus 1,339 a year earlier (down 18.1%), a rolling three-month median of $440,000 versus $437,500 (up 0.6%), 6,406 homes for sale versus 6,340 (up 1.0%), and rolling three-month pending sales of 3,838 versus 4,052 (down 5.3%). Months of supply was 4.9 in both years. Call or text 407-706-5000 and we will pull the year-over-year numbers for your neighborhood.

What should buyers and sellers do with these numbers?

Sellers: price to current village-level comps, expect negotiation near the 98% median sale-to-list, and budget your seller closing costs. Buyers: compare new and resale on total monthly cost, including CDD fees and HOA fees; our new construction vs resale guide covers the tradeoffs. If you are touring builder models, read using your own agent with a builder first.

When will October numbers be posted?

October 2026 numbers will be added after the Stellar MLS month-end pull in early November. This page is updated in place each month, and the Updated date at the top shows the latest refresh.
