Lakeway home sales, October 2026: $735,000 median sale price over the last 12 months, down 3.3% from the year before, 291 closed sales and 125 homes for sale. Charts and month-by-month comparisons.

Here is where the Lakeway (Travis County) housing market stands this month, from residential sales recorded in Unlock MLS. Every figure is a median or a total for the area; Texas is a non-disclosure state, so we never publish what an individual home sold for. These figures cover ZIP codes 78734, 78738.

Over the last 12 months, 291 homes closed in Lakeway, up 4.3% from the 12 months before. The median sale price was $735,000 (down 3.3% year over year), and the median home sold in 45 days (faster by 8.2% than a year earlier). There are 125 homes for sale right now, about 5.2 months of inventory at the current pace, which by the common rule of thumb is a fairly balanced market.
