The median sale at The Independent over the last 12 months was $1,280,000, and the median unit that sold had 1,457 square feet. Unit size and floor plan drive most of the spread. Over the last 12 months, one-bedroom units sold for a median of $680,000 across 3 sales, two-bedroom units sold for a median of $1,275,000 across 14 sales, three-bedroom units sold for a median of $2,415,785 across 4 sales.
Floor level and view matter in any condo building, but the MLS data we use does not record the floor reliably, so we do not break prices out by floor. Monthly HOA dues are not in our data either; ask us for the current dues and what they cover before you compare units.
The median condo at The Independent took 33 days from listing to contract over the last 12 months, counted on cumulative days on market so a relisted unit is not reset to zero. The year before it was 76 days. 48% of units that sold had cut their price at least once.
In a building, every seller competes with the other units for sale on the same day, often with similar floor plans. The 7 units listed now are the real competition. A unit priced in line with recent sales of the same size and layout sells well inside the median; one priced above the others tends to sit until it is cut.
The Independent is at 301 West Avenue on the west edge of downtown Austin, ZIP 78701, steps from Seaholm Residences. Shoal Creek, the Central Library and the Lady Bird Lake trail are a short walk, and the Second Street District and the Seaholm shops are a few blocks away.
These figures are residential closed sales from the ACTRIS MLS whose location falls inside the The Independent boundary. Leases and sales under $40,000 are excluded, and duplicate MLS records of the same sale are counted once. The current period is the 12 months ending September 27, 2026, compared with the 12 months before it. Days on market are cumulative. Sale-to-list is the median of each sale's close price divided by its original list price. We publish building totals only, never an individual unit's sale price.

By size, over the last 12 months, one-bedroom units sold for a median of $680,000 across 3 sales, two-bedroom units sold for a median of $1,275,000 across 14 sales, three-bedroom units sold for a median of $2,415,785 across 4 sales. The median asking price for the 7 units for sale today is $1,199,000. Because size, floor plan and view vary so much inside one building, compare a unit against recent sales of the same bedroom count rather than the building median.
The Independent has about 4.0 months of supply as of September 2026, which is a balanced market. Over the last 12 months, 48% of units that sold had cut their price, and the median unit closed at 95.3% of its original list price. Units priced in line with recent sales still move within the 33-day median, so your room to negotiate depends on how the specific unit was priced and how long it has been listed.
Over the last 12 months, condos at The Independent sold for a median of $1,280,000, or $947 per square foot, across 21 sales. At The Austonian, the median over its last 12 months was $1,949,500, or $1,068 per square foot, across 8 sales. Price per square foot is the fairer comparison, because the two buildings sell different mixes of unit sizes. Ask us for a side-by-side of specific units and we will pull the matching sales from each building.
Start with a lender who regularly finances Austin condos, because condo loans depend on the building as well as on you, and some buildings need extra review. Then set up a saved search inside the The Independent boundary so new listings reach you the day they list. Before you commit, read the HOA budget, reserves, rules and any pending assessments in the resale certificate, and ask us for the current HOA dues. The median unit here went under contract in 33 days over the last 12 months.
Pricing above the other units for sale. Over the last 12 months, 48% of units that sold at The Independent had cut their price at least once, and the median unit closed at 95.3% of its original list price. Buyers here compare your unit against every similar unit listed in the same building that week. A unit launched in line with recent sales of the same size and layout sells faster and usually nets more than one that sits and cuts.
The median sale at The Independent over the last 12 months worked out to $947 per square foot, compared with $938 over the prior 12 months. The median unit that sold had 1,457 square feet and sold for $1,280,000. Price per square foot is the quickest way to compare units of different sizes inside the building, but views, floor level, parking and finish level move it up or down, so use it as a starting point, not a final price.
The median condo at The Independent took 33 days to go under contract over the last 12 months, counted on cumulative days on market so relisted units are not reset. Over the prior 12 months the median was 76 days. Add roughly 30 to 45 days from contract to closing, and allow time for the HOA to issue its resale certificate. A unit priced in line with recent sales on launch day usually beats the median; one that needs a price cut usually takes longer.
