The gist
Round Rock’s home sales declined in two of four ZIP codes in April, compared to April 2024. Meanwhile, the average amount of days homes spent on the market increased in all four ZIP codes, as active home listings increased from 498 to 694.The data follows a trend occurring across the Austin, Round Rock and San Marcos metro, as residential home sales in April 2025 reached 2,484, 13.8% less than April 2024. Active home listings on the market also increased by 19.7% in the metro.What they're saying
Clare Knapp, housing economist for Unlock MLS and the Austin Board of Realtors, said in a news release that the metro’s housing market conditions mirror what’s happening nationwide. However, she said what’s unique to Central Texas is a supply of “affordably priced inventory.”
“Austin was one of the most affordability-constrained markets emerging from the pandemic,” Knapp said. “Many parts of the country are still supply-constrained, but in April, the Austin area posted the highest inventory level affordable to the standard household since 2012.”
