Yes, for a Larkspur home priced in line with recent sales, now is a good time to sell, and Larkspur has held its price better than Leander as a whole. Homes in Larkspur, Leander sold for 97.9% of their original asking price in the last 90 days, which reads as a seller’s market. That reading describes the neighborhood as a whole. Most of the homes for sale now have already cut their price, so I would set your price from the most recent Larkspur sales before you list.
The figures on this page describe the public side of this market, the sales that were listed in the MLS. Above $1M in the Austin area, a large share of sales are never listed there and never appear online.
Those sales trade on a broker-to-broker private network, and I am a participating broker. Only the agents and brokers who do most of the business at this price point use it, and a surprising number of agents do not know it exists because they do not sell in this range. It covers homes, lots, ranches and condos priced over $1M, and much of it is waterfront or in the Austin core, West Austin, Westlake and Rollingwood, where prices run past $1.5M.
Sellers and their brokers use it for privacy: no public photos or floor plans, and no showings to buyers who have not been qualified.

My team has sold 2 homes in Larkspur and 253 Leander homes in all, and those counts do not include a single buyer my team has represented. Everything on this page comes from the same MLS record I use to price those homes.
The Larkspur homes that sold in the last three months went under contract in a median of 25 cumulative days to contract, a count that keeps running when a home is relisted. Over the full twelve months, the median was 54 days to contract.
I give the twelve-month pace more weight when I plan a listing with an owner. Most of the recent window fell in summer, and the year as a whole moved more slowly.
Larkspur sellers have kept more of their asking price than sellers across town. Over the same twelve months, Leander as a whole sold at 94.2% of original asking, a balanced market, while Larkspur sold at 97.0%.
Supply is tighter here too. Larkspur has 3.4 months of supply against 4.6 for Leander, which means the homes for sale here would clear sooner at the recent pace of sales.
Every home sold here in the last twelve months was a resale built between 2015 and 2024. When I price a home in Larkspur, the homes a buyer weighs against it are other Larkspur resales of about the same age, and I leave the rest of Leander out of that comparison.
My team has sold 2 homes in Larkspur over the years, and I price here from the neighborhood’s own recent sales.
Price per square foot fell from $198 in the prior twelve months to $177 in the last twelve months. The drop is large mainly because larger homes sold.
The median home sold went from 1,889 square feet in the prior twelve months to 2,156 in the last twelve months. The lot is a fixed cost, and a bigger house spreads that cost over more square feet, which pulls the per-foot figure down.
For direction I look at what buyers paid against original asking, which went from 95.8% in the prior twelve months to 97.0% in the last twelve months. For you as an owner, that means buyers here were paying closer to the list price this year than last, even as the per-foot figure came down.
Price per square foot also fell from $177 over the last twelve months to $171 over the last three months. Home size barely changed between those periods, and I cannot put this second drop down to larger homes selling. I read it as buyers paying a little less per foot this summer for the same size of home, and I would set your price from the latest Larkspur sales rather than from last year’s per-foot figure.
The Larkspur homes for sale now have sat much longer than the homes that sold, and most cut their price along the way. The typical home for sale now has been on the market 82 days, against 25 days to contract for the homes that sold in the last three months.
The median asking price of the homes for sale now is $354,500, close to the $350,000 median sale price of the last three months. After those cuts, most of these sellers are asking about what homes here have been selling for. My read is that many of them started above recent sales and lost weeks before they cut, and buyers who can line up homes this close in age notice that quickly. Those lost weeks are what I would want you to avoid.
I would list now if your home is move-in ready and you can price it in line with the most recent Larkspur sales. The homes that sold this summer went under contract quickly and close to their original asking price, and that pace rewards a home that comes out at the right number.
I would wait if your home needs work before it is move-in ready, or if your move only works at a price well above what homes here have been selling for. A home that lists high here joins the 11 of 14 homes for sale that have already cut their price, and I would rather you use the time to get the home ready and the price right.
My Home Competitor Analysis lines your home up against the Larkspur homes a buyer would compare it to today. Here is what you get from it:
No obligation. The report for Larkspur comes first. Then I walk the home with you before we talk about price.
If your home is one of the larger floor plans, I would not price it off the neighborhood’s price per square foot. Bigger homes here sell for less per foot, so I would set your price from comparable sales of the same size and leave the per-foot figure for the smaller homes.
If your home is already listed and has sat longer than the homes that sold this summer, you are competing with the homes that already cut. I would look at your price against the most recent Larkspur sales before you sit through another month.
If you are planning to list later rather than now, I would measure your plan against the twelve-month figures. Over the full year, the median home took 54 days to contract, and I would build your moving timeline around that pace.
The Home Competitor Analysis shows the homes you would have to beat, what they are asking, how long they have been on the market, which have cut their price, and how your home may compare.
