Selling a House in New Deal, Texas

New Deal is the smallest place we cover. The entire town accounts for fewer than three hundred improved properties on the county roll, at the lowest appraised values of any community in Lubbock County.

What the county roll shows about New Deal

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

New Deal — LCAD roll, July 2026
Improved properties on the roll273
Median appraised value$78,011
Typical size1,364 sq ft
Carry a homestead exemption49.8%
Without a homestead exemption137
Owned from outside Texas4.1%

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 New Deal

At that size there is no market in the usual sense. A handful of houses change hands in a year, so there is no steady stream of comparable sales for anyone to reason from -- and in Texas those sales would not be public anyway.

The honest part

Be skeptical of confident numbers in New Deal, including ours. In a town of this size a single unusual sale distorts everything people believe about local values for a year afterwards. We would rather look at your house and explain our reasoning than hand you a figure and pretend it came from data that does not exist.

How a direct sale works in New Deal

Same three steps everywhere we buy, north of Lubbock on the Amarillo Highway 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 New Deal

Do you buy houses in New Deal?

Yes. New Deal is inside our regular buying area and we look at property there in any condition. The county roll lists 273 improved properties in New Deal, and we will look at any of them -- occupied, vacant, tenanted, inherited, or mid-repair.

What is a house in New Deal typically worth?

The median appraised value of an improved property in New Deal is about $78,011, on a typical 1,364 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 New Deal are not owner-occupied?

About 137 of the 273 improved properties in New Deal do not carry a homestead exemption, which works out to roughly 50.2%. Those are the rentals, second homes, inherited houses, and vacant properties. It is the group we hear from most.

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

Yes, and it is common -- about 4.1% of improved properties in New Deal 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 New Deal 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 New Deal house?

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