I have loved the Stone Canyon neighborhood for years, having assisted many buyers and sellers in the area.  We have some very good friends in this subdivision, and I always enjoy getting a chance to visit the area parks and trails with our kids.  Located just off of Highway 620 next to the Seton Round Rock Medical Center, it offers strong amenities, natural beauty, and high-quality homes.

This is a snapshot look at the current activity in the neighborhood, along with a look back at the sales activity for 2008.

Currently, there are 24 homes available on the MLS in Stone Canyon, with an average asking price of $249,747.  The average square footage for these homes is 2,696, for an average price per square foot of $96.41.  There is only one home currently under contract in the area, so this number really doesn't matter a whole lot, frankly.

Over the past year (January through December 2008), there were 61 sales closed in the subdivision.  The average listing price was $229,301 and the average sales price was $223,451.  This means that homes sold for 97.4% of the list price this past year.  As a small caveat, my figures do not account for any seller-paid closing costs on behalf of the buyer. 

The average number of days on the market for 2008 was 70 days , which is less than the overall average for the Austin-area market.  The square footage of the homes sold averaged 2,539, and the price per square foot for the sales was $88.46.

If you are a homeowner living in another neighborhood in or near Austin and you are interested in seeing the trends in your particular neighborhood, please don't hesitate to contact me, and I can create a custom report for you.  All of my contact information is below.

If you are considering selling your home in Stone Canyon (or anywhere in the general Austin or Round Rock area), please feel free to give me a call.  I would love the opportunity to help you get it sold quickly.  You can visit my primary Austin Texas real estate website at www.austintexashomes.com.  You can also reach me anytime on my cell phone at 512-796-7653 or via email at jason@austintexashomes.com.

I have loved the Stone Canyon neighborhood for years, having assisted many buyers and sellers in the area.  We have some very good friends in this subdivision, and I always enjoy getting a chance to visit the area parks and trails with our kids.  One of the agents who works for our company has lived there for eight years, and she knows the area inside and out. 

Located just off of Highway 620 next to the Round Rock Medical Center, it offers strong amenities, natural beauty, and high-quality homes.

Currently, there are 27 homes available on the MLS in Stone Canyon, with an average asking price of $237,758.  The average square footage for these homes is 2,668, for an average price per square foot of $89.78. 

There are 7 homes under contract right now in Stone Canyon, with an average price of $224,614.  The average square footage on these homes is 2,119, yielding an average square footage price of $106.00.  Although this represents a big increase in the square footage amount from the previous six months, the home size that is selling readily is quite a bit smaller than before.

Over the summer months, there were 20 sales closed within Stone Canyon.  The average listing price was $242,789 and the average sales price was $237,278.  This means that homes sold for  97.8% of the list price.  This number is exactly the same as it was for the first six months of 2008.  The average number of days on the market was 63 days, which is less than the average for the Austin market right now.  The square footage of the homes sold averaged 2,647, and the price per square foot for the sales was $89.65.
