What buyers in 78722 are paying for

In Cherrywood, these features tend to separate the homes that sell from the ones that sit:

  • Walkability to Manor Road and Mueller
  • Character bungalows with updated kitchens and baths
  • Easy access to downtown, UT, and I-35
  • Yards and lots that allow an addition or second unit

Prices in 78722 are down 9.5% from a year ago. As a result, buyers have more room to negotiate, and homes priced to last year’s market tend to sit.

What to do before listing your 78722 home

Start with a comparative market analysis built on closed sales near your home, not the whole ZIP code. Then fix the items an inspector is likely to flag. Because 78722 is small, there are few sales to compare. A pricing plan should lean on the closest matching homes, even if a few sit just outside the ZIP.

In addition, check your home’s appraisal history on the Travis Central Appraisal District property search, since buyers often look too.
