What does it cost to buy a home in Lost Creek right now?

The median Lost Creek home sold for $1,107,500 over the 12 months ending September 2026, across 32 residential sales in the ACTRIS MLS. That is down 7.7% from $1,200,000 the year before. The median home for sale today is listed at $1,650,000. Because the area mixes houses with a small number of condos and townhomes, the right number for a specific home comes from the recent sales on its street and of its type, not the neighborhood median.

Over the last 12 months, Lost Creek single-family houses sold for a median of $1,270,000 across 25 sales, while condos sold for a median of $609,000 across 5 sales. The 2 townhome sales had a median of $630,500. That gap is why the overall median of $1,107,500 is a poor guide for any one budget. Filter the live search by property type first, then compare against recent sales of that same type.

Lost Creek is in a balanced market, with about 4.1 months of supply as of September 2026. 34% of homes that sold had cut their price, and the typical home closed at 95.4% of its original list price, so there is room to negotiate on homes that launched above the recent sales. Homes priced in line with the market still move within the 21-day median, so negotiating room depends on how the specific home was priced, not on the area as a whole.

Yes. Over the last 12 months, Lost Creek sold at a median of $1,107,500 across 32 sales, while the broader Westlake area sold at $1,660,000 across 371 sales. House to house, Lost Creek had a median of $1,270,000 against $1,850,000 in Westlake. Lost Creek houses also sold faster, at a median of 20 days against 34 for Westlake houses, so buyers here should be ready to act quickly on a well-priced home.

Start with financing: the median Lost Creek house sold for $1,270,000, well above conforming loan limits, so most buyers need a jumbo approval, which takes longer. Then set up a saved search inside the Lost Creek boundary so new listings reach you the day they list, since well-priced homes go under contract inside the 21-day median. Nearly every house that sold was built between 1960 and 2009, so budget time for foundation, roof, HVAC and sewer line inspections before you commit.

Launching above the recent sales. Over the last year, 34% of Lost Creek homes that sold had cut their price, and the typical home closed at 95.4% of its original list price. The homes that sold fastest launched in line with comparable sales nearby. A home that sits and cuts usually ends up below the price a well-set launch would have brought, and it spends extra weeks or months on the market getting there.

Mostly established homes of similar age. Over the last 12 months, 23 of the 25 houses that sold were built between 1960 and 2009. They sold for a median of $1,260,000, with a median of 2,792 square feet on about 0.37 acres, or about $482 per square foot. Only 2 newer houses sold. The 5 condo sales had a median of $609,000, so the neighborhood offers two very different price points.

The median Lost Creek home took 21 days to go under contract over the last 12 months, counted on cumulative days on market so relisted homes are not reset. That is faster than the year before, when the median was 32 days. Houses moved much faster than condos: the median house took 20 days and the median condo took 126, on just 5 condo sales. Add roughly 30 to 45 days from contract to closing. A home priced in line with recent sales on launch day usually beats the median; one that needs a price cut usually takes longer.

Lost Creek is in the 78746 ZIP code, which also covers West Lake Hills, Rollingwood and much of the Westlake area. That ZIP code mixes very different housing, from condos to large estates, so ZIP-level statistics can point you the wrong way. The figures on this page are calculated only from sales inside the Lost Creek boundary, so they describe Lost Creek itself rather than the whole ZIP code.
