Thinking about a move in Rosharon and not sure where prices and inventory stand? You’re not alone. With fast growth, active new construction, and mixed data across websites, it can be hard to get a clear read. In this snapshot, you’ll see current price ranges, market pace, and the local factors that matter most, plus practical tips for buyers and sellers. Let’s dive in.
How we define “Rosharon” here
For clarity, this snapshot uses the broader 77583 ZIP area that most public portals track, not just the small Rosharon CDP. The CDP’s 2020 population was about 1,362, while the 77583 ZIP covers a much larger and faster‑growing footprint. If you’re comparing figures, confirm whether a source is using the CDP or the ZIP. You can see the CDP context on CensusDots’ Rosharon page.
Prices and pace right now
Public portals showed a tight cluster of medians in early to mid 2025. Realtor.com reported a median listing price near 330,000 in January 2025. Redfin showed a recent median sale price around 309,000, and 12‑month windows on Rocket/Redfin placed sold medians in the mid 300s. Differences reflect list vs sold, the look‑back period, and the exact boundary used.
Inventory across portals reached several hundred active listings in 77583 during early to mid 2025, and average days on market often fell in the roughly 40 to 70 day range. In the broader Houston area, inventory rose in 2025 and some submarkets saw modest price cooling, as summarized by Axios’ Houston market coverage. Local results vary by neighborhood, builder activity, and home age.
What this means for you
- Buyers: Expect more choices and negotiating room in some sections, especially where new builds compete with resales.
- Sellers: Price to the most relevant comps and plan for a measured market pace.
Local drivers you should watch
Commute and access
Rosharon sits roughly 30 to 33 driving miles from downtown Houston via SH 288, often a 35 to 45 minute drive depending on traffic. That commute profile draws many buyers who want newer homes and suburban space. Check your route with this Rosharon to Houston distance reference.
New‑home supply nearby
Large master‑planned communities shape pricing and inventory. Meridiana, just up the road, has been recognized among the region’s top‑selling master‑planned communities, which signals ongoing builder activity and buyer interest in the area. See Meridiana’s recognition noted on the community’s news page. Additional exurban projects across southern Fort Bend and Brazoria counties continue to add supply, as reported by the Houston Chronicle.
Schools, taxes, and MUDs
School zoning depends on your exact address. Portions of the area are served by Angleton ISD, Alvin ISD, Pearland ISD, or Fort Bend ISD. You can review district context on Wikipedia’s Rosharon page. Many neighborhoods are also in Municipal Utility Districts. MUD tax rates vary and can materially affect your total tax bill. Use the Brazoria County Appraisal District’s resources to check parcel details and posted rates on the BCAD tax rates page.
Flood and insurance
Flood risk is property specific. The area experienced significant regional impacts during Hurricane Harvey, and the Brazos River has documented major flood events. Always verify the address on the FEMA Flood Map Service Center and review historical context from the USGS Brazos River data set. If a home is in a Special Flood Hazard Area, lenders typically require flood insurance.
Buyer checklist for Rosharon
- Compare apples to apples. Weigh new builds with builder incentives against nearby resales with upgrades and established landscaping.
- Verify flood zone early and request an insurance quote before finalizing your offer. Check the FEMA MSC.
- Confirm school district, HOA, and MUD details for the exact address. Use BCAD’s tax resources and district tools linked from official sites.
- Test your commute at your typical drive times and map alternate routes along SH 288 and FM 1462.
Seller game plan in a mixed new‑build market
- Anchor pricing to recent MLS comps inside your subdivision or the most similar nearby sections, not just portal averages.
- Prep to compete with new construction. Consider strategic updates, fresh paint, curb appeal, and clear value messaging about lot size, outdoor space, and move‑in readiness.
- Expect a measured pace. Plan timelines around a 40 to 70 day average in many sections, then adjust based on the newest comps and feedback.
- Highlight what new builds may not offer at your price point, such as established trees, completed backyards, window coverings, and immediate move‑in.
The bottom line
Rosharon’s 77583 area is active, with medians clustering around the low to mid 300s and inventory that gives buyers options. New‑home communities set the tone in several sections, so both buyers and sellers benefit from hyper‑local comps and careful planning on taxes, flood, and commute.
