The one fact that changes what you should do: inventory is down sharply. The Real Estate Data Aggregator counted 139 homes for sale in ZIP 78746 during the three months ending August 31, 2026. That is down 28.7% from the same months in 2025. Fewer choices for buyers can mean stronger footing for sellers who price well.

Nationally, Realtor.com reported active listings topped 1.16 million homes in September 2026. Rob Roy Westlake moved the other way. Supply here tightened while the national pool grew.

Buyers are still showing up

The Real Estate Data Aggregator counted 105 pending sales in ZIP 78746 for the same period. That is up 9.4% from a year before. Buyers are signing contracts even as rates climb. Freddie Mac put the average 30-year fixed rate at 7.40% as of October 8, 2026. That is real pressure on monthly payments, yet pending sales here still rose.

Homes sold faster than a year ago

The Real Estate Data Aggregator put the median days on market at 59 days. That is 32 days shorter than the same period in 2025. Not every home sold fast, but the middle of the market moved more quickly. Nearly 1 in 4 homes, 23.8% to be exact, went under contract within two weeks of listing, up 1.9 points from a year before.

The median price dipped, and that is worth knowing

The Real Estate Data Aggregator put the median sale price in ZIP 78746 at $1,635,000 for the three months ending August 31, 2026. That is down 11.1% from the same months in 2025. Prices dipped, and that is a real change. Still, the average sale came in at 95.4% of list price, up 1.6 points from a year before. Sellers who priced well recovered more of their ask than sellers did last year.

Nationally, Realtor.com reported price cuts hit 20.8% of listings in September 2026, the highest share since October 2022. In Rob Roy Westlake, 6.2% of homes sold above list price. That is a small share, but it shows some sellers still had competition.

Supply fell while the nation's grew

Supply here fell 28.7% while Realtor.com counted 1.16 million active listings nationally in September 2026. The Federal Housing Finance Agency reported U.S. house prices rose 2.6% from July 2025 to July 2026. Rob Roy Westlake's median moved differently, down 11.1%. Local and national trends do not always match.
