The median asking price in Cedar Park is about $487,000 as of Oct 2026, down 5.5% from a year ago. The typical listing is 3% smaller than a year ago, and asking price per square foot is flat. So the size of homes on the market explains much of the drop. That is the asking price on listed homes, so sold-price and home-value sites show different numbers (why).
