WHAT’S HAPPENING IN THE MARKET?
East Round Rock’s (78664) housing market held up better than expected in January, with a smaller-than-expected sales decline compared to projections. While sales volume dipped, home prices remain steady, and buyers continue to be active in the market.
With 27 homes sold last month, demand remains strong, though homes are taking a bit longer to sell. Compared to the predicted trend, East Round Rock performed significantly better than Greater Austin and Austin itself, signaling that buyers and sellers are still making moves in this desirable area. And it was essentially equal to all of Round Rock.
