What to do before listing your 78751 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. If your home is in a historic district, know the rules that come with it. Buyers will ask what they can change.

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