What buyers in 78759 are paying for

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

• The school assignment for the specific address
• Wooded lots and greenbelt access
• Updated homes that do not need major work

What to do before listing your 78759 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. Confirm your school district before listing. Most 78759 sales are in Austin ISD, but some addresses are in Round Rock ISD.

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