Average price per acre for Ranches and land values in Fredericksburg Texas
for 2025 we sold a total of $53,604,598 in Raw compared to $61,212,712 in 2024 that’s a drop of 12.42% in total dollar volume. We also saw that decrease in the number of individual properties sold as well as the total number of acres sold. So for 2025 we’ve sold 84 individual properties totaling 2696 acres. And in 2024, we sold 91 individual properties totaling 2756 acres. Thats down 2.17% in the number of acres and 7.69% in the number of transactions. And as with most products, a lack of demand usually equals a decline in pricing and we have seen that pretty much across the board on their all land sales in Glaspie County for this past year. For all sales in Gillespie County in 2024 we ended at $25,237.15 per acre on average and at the end of 2025 the average price per acre for Gillespie County ended at $19,877.70 per acre, which is a fairly significant 21.23% drop.
Just to give you the different segments of raw land as I usually do. At the end of 2025.
1 to 5 acres $51,102.07 per acre ( down 8.74%)
6 to 10 acres $30,367.92 per acre. ( down 15.05%)
11 to 25 acres $33,216.07 per acre. ( up 7.84%. )
26 to 50 acres $16,164.33 per acre ( down 39.64%)
51 to 100 acres $24,448.12 per acre ( up 27.03%)
101 to 250 acres $12,978.28 per acre ( down 24.97%)
250+ acres $12,222 ( down 14.03%)
So as you can see, it was a pretty tough year for the raw land market in Gillespie County. Just not enough demand for everything that’s currently for sale which certainly made the average price per acre and most segments decrease. But that said I’m not overly worried about Land sales. It was a tough year but as old saying goes, they’re not making any more of it so I’m sure that will rebound fairly quickly in the next year or two.
And for any one curious the average price at Boot Ranch is at $319,508.95 per acre at the end of 202r
.
And the average price for a city lot is at $261,496 for the end of 2025
And property on Hwy 290 East which was a real hot commodity back a few years ago has really slowed..We only had one land sale on 290 E. in 2024and in 2025 we had no land only sells on 290 E.
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.
