What is the best month to list a home in Round Rock? A seasonal decomposition of 24 months of data reveals that November has historically been the strongest month for prices in this specific area.
ALEX Intelligence analyzed closed sales from November 2024 through October 2026 to identify recurring patterns. The data shows a distinct cycle where activity slows in late fall, but prices often surge. In November 2025, median prices reached $468,000, and in November 2024, they hit $540,000. This contrasts sharply with the current October 2026 figures, where the median price fell to $407,500 across 40 closed sales.
The volume of sales also fluctuates seasonally. While October typically sees around 40 closings, November historically averages higher transaction volumes and significantly higher prices compared to the preceding months. For example, November 2024 saw a median price of $540,000 with 31 sales, whereas October 2026 recorded a median of $407,500 with 40 sales. The current market shows a 22.4% drop in median price from the prior month and an 82.1% increase in days on market compared to last year, suggesting a shift in seasonal dynamics or inventory levels.
Buyers and sellers should note that while October is often slower with lower prices, historical trends indicate November can offer better returns for sellers willing to wait, provided they understand the current local conditions. The data suggests that timing a listing for late fall could capitalize on this historical price premium, though current market velocity remains a factor to consider.
This analysis relies on 24 months of closed sales data to isolate seasonal effects from broader market trends.
