# Where to Buy a Home Under $400K in Round Rock TX

Rob Poulton — Lone Wolf Realty Group — eXp Realty — License 846287 — 512-817-2174

**Quick Answer:** Inventory under $400,000 in Round Rock is now a narrower segment of the market, but it exists — primarily in older sections of Cat Hollow, Hidden Glen, and Brushy Creek, plus entry-level resale in parts of Paloma Lake and Teravista. The trade-offs typically involve home age, square footage, or specific lot location.

## The State of the Sub-$400K Market

With Round Rock's median sale price now around $390,000, the under-$400,000 segment represents roughly half of all transactions but has narrower selection than it did three years ago. Buyers in this segment should expect to act decisively when the right home appears, since well-priced sub-$400K inventory in desirable feeder zones still moves quickly.

## Cat Hollow

Established 1980s-1990s neighborhood in northwest Round Rock with mature trees, larger lot sizes than typical for current new construction, and Round Rock ISD assignments. Inventory under $400,000 is regular but moves quickly. Buyers should expect homes that may need cosmetic updates in exchange for the lower price point.

## Hidden Glen

Older established neighborhood with a similar profile to Cat Hollow — mature landscaping, larger lots, and Round Rock ISD schools. Pricing typically lands in the $325,000 to $425,000 range depending on size and condition.

## Brushy Creek

The Brushy Creek area covers a wide range of inventory, with regular sub-$400K listings in older sections. Direct access to the Brushy Creek Regional Trail is a meaningful lifestyle benefit at this price point. Round Rock ISD assignments throughout most of the community.

## Entry-Level Master-Planned

Smaller floor plans in Paloma Lake, the lower-priced sections of Teravista, and certain attached product types regularly transact under $400,000. The trade-off is typically square footage or lot location, but the amenity access remains the same as the higher-priced inventory in the same community.

## What to Watch For

At this price point, scrutinize HVAC age, roof age, foundation condition (Central Texas clay soils put real stress on foundations), and electrical panel adequacy. Homes built in the 1980s and 1990s in this segment often need one or more major systems addressed within the first five years of ownership. Budget accordingly.

## Frequently Asked Questions

### Can you still buy a single-family home under $400K in Round Rock?

Yes — the inventory is narrower than it was in 2020 but it remains a meaningful segment of the market. Cat Hollow, Hidden Glen, and Brushy Creek are the most consistent producers of sub-$400K inventory.

### Are condos and townhomes available under $400K in Round Rock?

Yes. Attached product is a meaningful share of the under-$400K market and often delivers a newer construction year for the price.

### How fast do sub-$400K homes sell in Round Rock?

Well-priced inventory in desirable feeder zones often goes under contract within two to three weeks. Days on market in this segment runs noticeably below the broader market average.
