Selling in Katy: questions we hear

How long does it take to sell a house in Katy?
The median resale in Katy went under contract after 25 days on the market (45 days counting earlier listings of the same home). 35% sold within two weeks of listing. A financed buyer then usually needs about 30 to 45 days to close; a cash sale can close in one to two weeks.
What is my house worth in Katy, TX?
The median Katy resale sold for $352,500, or $159 per square foot. 3-bedroom homes sold for a median $277,500 and 4-bedroom homes for $390,000. Your home's value depends on its size, condition, street and recent sales next to it. Ask for a free CMA: we compare your home to the closest real sales and send the report.
How much money will I actually get from selling my house in Katy?
Your net is the sale price minus your loan payoff, agent commissions (negotiable, not set by law), the title policy and closing fees, prorated property taxes and any credits you give the buyer. In Katy, 43% of sellers gave the buyer a credit at closing, a median 1.9% of the price. We send a written net sheet for your home before you decide anything, for a listing and for a cash sale.
Should I sell my Katy house for cash or list it?
A cash sale trades price for speed and certainty: no repairs, no showings, and a closing date you choose. A listing usually brings more money if the home shows well and you have time. 28% of Katy resales in the last 12 months were cash purchases. Gableway is a brokerage that also buys houses, so we put a written cash offer and a list-price estimate side by side and you pick.
Which Katy ZIP code sells fastest?
77450: a median 17 days on the market at 97.1% of the original asking price (median sale $394,000). Every ZIP is in the table on this page.
Can I sell an inherited house in Katy?
Yes. In Texas the estate usually needs a court order, a muniment of title or a recorded heirship affidavit before the house can be sold. We work with probate attorneys and can buy the house as-is or list it. See our guide to selling an inherited Houston house.
