Average price per acre for Ranches and land values in Fredericksburg Texas
Now what we really been moving a lot of is raw acreage this year. So far for 2024 we’ve sold 2,147 acres and then the first half of 2023 we sold 1314 acres . So pretty heavy increase of 63.39% in the number of acres sold. And that’s also reflected in the total dollar sold where in 2023 first half we sold $39,140,876 compared to the first half of 2024 where we sold $51,817,085.. with the average price per acre across the county currently sitting at $24,125.09
And for a quick breakdown of acreage segments as of June 30, 2024
1 to 5 acres -$55,364.73 per acre
6 to 10 acres -$42,227.70per acre
11 to 25 acres – $21,628.82 per acre
26 to 50 acres -$31,424.53 per acre
51 to 100 acres -$19,844.49 per acre
101 to 250 acres -$16,236.67 per acre
250+ acres – $14,992.12 per acre
Then I have been tracking acreage sales on Highway 290 separately because that has become such a commercial product that I am not including those in the average price per acres I was just talking about. So the average price per acre for anything on Highway 290 for 2023 that number is $75,896.58 per acre
I also keep boot ranch numbers out of the general price per acre in the county but if you are curious the average price per acre in boot ranch which is usually a 1 to 5 acre tract ended 2023 at $386,764,25 per acre which is why I don’t mix those sales into the usual averages
When you look at the chart above is easy to think you have a complete picture of the land and ranch market in Gillespie County. But just looking at the average price per acre of everything that has sold can be misleading. All land is not created equal. One must take into account where the majority of the land was sold in a certain year.
