What the county roll shows about 79411

These come from the July 2026 Lubbock Central Appraisal District roll, counted over improved properties in 79411 — lots with a building on them, so vacant land and large commercial do not distort the middle.

79411 — LCAD roll, July 2026
Improved properties on the roll2,475
Median appraised value$99,244
Typical size1,200 sq ft
Carry a homestead exemption28.2%
Without a homestead exemption1,777
Owned from outside Texas6.8%

These are appraised values, not sale prices. Texas is a non-disclosure state, so sale prices are not public record. MLS-based figures exist for listed sales but miss off-market and cash ones, and an appraisal-district value is not a market value. Anyone quoting an exact number without seeing the property is estimating.

What that means if you are selling in 79411

A ZIP that is seventy percent non-owner-occupied behaves differently from the rest of the city. Turnover is high, condition varies enormously between neighbors, and a lot of the housing has been a rental long enough that it would need real work to sell to somebody who intends to live in it.

The honest part

If you are a landlord here deciding between one more turnover and selling, the honest comparison is not our offer against the appraised value. It is our offer against what you would net after make-ready, vacancy, commission, and the repairs a retail buyer's inspector will find. We are happy to walk through both.

How a direct sale works in 79411

Same three steps everywhere we buy, central Lubbock, roughly 25th to 34th east of Avenue Q included.

  • Send the address. Condition, timing, and whether anyone is living there. Photos help; they are not required.
  • We look at the property and the title. Repairs, access, liens, occupancy, and what would need to happen to close.
  • You get a number in writing — or a straight answer about why listing would serve you better.

There is no fee, no commission when we buy directly, and no obligation at any step. The full process is here.

Common questions about selling in 79411

Do you buy houses in 79411?

Yes. 79411 is inside our regular buying area and we look at property there in any condition. The county roll lists 2,475 improved properties in 79411, and we will look at any of them -- occupied, vacant, tenanted, inherited, or mid-repair.

What is a house in 79411 typically worth?

The median appraised value of an improved property in 79411 is about $99,244, on a typical 1,200 square feet. That is the county's appraised figure, not a sale price. Texas is a non-disclosure state, so sale prices are not public record. Sites showing Lubbock "recent sales" work from MLS data, which covers listed sales but not off-market or cash ones, and an appraisal-district value is not a market value either. Treat every number as an estimate until somebody has actually seen the property.

How many houses in 79411 are not owner-occupied?

About 1,777 of the 2,475 improved properties in 79411 do not carry a homestead exemption, which works out to roughly 71.8%. Those are the rentals, second homes, inherited houses, and vacant properties. It is the group we hear from most.

Can you buy my 79411 house if I live out of state?

Yes, and it is common -- about 6.8% of improved properties in 79411 are owned by somebody whose mail goes outside Texas. Texas closings can be handled remotely through a title company with a mail-out or a notary where you live. You do not need to travel.

Will you tell me if listing my 79411 house would be better?

Yes. If your property is in retail condition and you are not under time pressure, a listing will usually net more than a cash offer, and we say so. We would rather lose the deal than talk somebody into the wrong one.

Want a number for your 79411 house?

Send the address and the condition. If a direct sale is not your best move, we will say so.
