How much choice does a Highpointe buyer have right now?
Quick answer
Very little. Only a couple of Highpointe homes were for sale on the analysis date, neither one had cut its price, and the neighborhood closed as a seller’s market overall this past year.
Public-record median: $807,500 for Highpointe sales recorded in the MLS, twelve months ending October 20, 2026. That is the floor of what the MLS caught in Highpointe, never what your home is worth. Some sales in this part of town never reach the record.

How tight is Highpointe right now?
About as tight as Southwest Austin gets. Supply on the twelve-month pace is 0.6 months, and the 2 listings on the analysis date were both still at their first price.
That gives a new listing a real audience. It also means a buyer has little to compare yours with inside the neighborhood, so they will look at Belterra next door, covered on How quickly are Belterra homes going under contract this year?
Did Highpointe prices move this year?
Barely. The public-record median held at $807,500 this past year against $797,500 the year before. Price per foot barely moved.
The typical house sold was a little larger this year, which explains most of the small rise in the median.

| Period | Sold | Public-record median sale price | Price per square foot (median) | Median days on market | Share of original asking price | Median living area (square feet) | Median build year |

| Same 90 days a year earlier (July 23, 2025 to October 20, 2025) | 9 (thin) | $840,000 | $243 | 36 days | 94.9% | 3,195 | 2018 |
| Twelve months ending October 20, 2026 | 37 | $807,500 | $246 | 33 days | 97.0% | 3,161 | 2014 |

Is Highpointe a buyer’s market or a seller’s market?
A seller’s market, by my rule, on the twelve-month record. Homes closed at 97.0% of their original asking price, a reading for the neighborhood as a whole.
Table 2. Highpointe homes by price range, twelve months ending October 20, 2026; homes for sale as of October 21, 2026. A range is a seller’s market when homes sold for at least 97% of their original asking price, balanced from 94% to 97%, and a buyer’s market below 94%. Only price ranges with at least 10 sales in the twelve months are shown. Source: Unlock MLS.
| Price range | Sold | Public-record median sale price | For sale | New builds for sale | Homes that cut their price | Months of supply | Market |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| $800,000 to $899,999 | 10 | $811,500 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 1.2 | balanced |
The busiest range, the $800,000s, was balanced on its own, so a house at that price should not count on full asking. The ZIP view is on How is 78737 treating sellers in Belterra and Highpointe?
Sell now, or wait?
With almost no competition on the street, a ready house has an opening.
- Sell now if your home is ready to show while buyers have little else to tour.
- Sell now if your asking price is based on this year’s closed sales, not last year’s.
- Wait if the house needs repairs that a Belterra listing at the same price would not.
- Wait if new Parten homes at your price would draw the same buyer away.
Your situation
Highpointe has almost no listings and steady prices. Buyers looking here will widen the search to Belterra and Parten.
So the question for your house is how it compares with the homes a buyer sees one neighborhood over, and what that does to your first price.
