April 2025 Rockport Real Estate Market Update

The latest housing numbers are in for Rockport, Texas, and they highlight a market that continues to favor buyers. Inventory remains high, homes are taking longer to sell, and median prices ticked upward last month. As we head into summer, these trends offer both opportunities and challenges depending on which side of the transaction you're on. Here’s a breakdown of the latest stats from April 2025.

Key Market Metrics
Months of Inventory: Now at 13.15, up 7.7% from March. This increase keeps Rockport firmly in a buyer’s market, giving buyers more options and room for negotiation.

Median Days on Market: Homes spent an average of 85 days on the market in April, a 70% jump month over month. This suggests buyer activity may be slowing slightly, or that sellers need to sharpen their pricing and presentation to attract serious offers.

List to Sold Price Ratio: Down slightly to 97.3%, a 1.22% dip from the previous month. Sellers are still receiving strong offers overall, but pricing correctly out of the gate is becoming more important in a market with rising competition.

Median Sold Price: Increased to $376,700, up 8.72% from March. This may reflect a shift toward more higher-end or updated homes selling last month, rather than a broad rise in values across the board.

What This Means for Buyers and Sellers
Buyers continue to benefit from a market with elevated inventory and more time to make informed decisions. With homes sitting longer, there’s potential for better deals and more flexible negotiations.

Sellers, on the other hand, are still seeing strong final sale prices, but longer days on market and small dips in the list-to-sold ratio mean strategy matters. In this environment, it’s critical to price right and make your property stand out from the start.

How to Navigate the Rockport Real Estate Market
If you're buying, this market offers both selection and leverage. Have your financing lined up and be ready to act when the right property hits. If you're selling, work closely with your agent to ensure your home is positioned well—with pricing, staging, and marketing all aligned to today’s conditions.

Looking Ahead
As we enter the summer season, we’ll be watching to see whether increased buyer demand offsets the growing inventory or if the trend continues toward a more competitive landscape for sellers. Stay tuned for next month’s update to see how things unfold.
