Community Guide

Living in Brookshire, Texas

Brookshire is the first town west of Katy on I-10, and its mailing addresses stretch south into Fort Bend County where Jordan Ranch and Bluestem are building out. That split is why so much of the Brookshire inventory is brand-new despite the town itself being a century-old rail stop.

Get to know Brookshire

Welcome to Brookshire

Royal ISD serves the older city; the new sections along FM 1463 and the Fort Bend side fall under Lamar CISD, so the zoned district is worth confirming per address. Most listings are new construction on subdivision lots.

New construction dominates the current inventory — builder homes make up well over half of the listings. Few of the current listings fall inside a FEMA special flood hazard area. Most homes sit on conventional subdivision lots of under a quarter acre, with a handful of acreage tracts in the mix. What follows is live: our MLS feed refreshes the figures on this page hourly.

Buyer's market

Brookshire is tilting toward buyers right now — about 6.6 months of inventory, yet roughly 63% of active sellers have already cut their price, so well-prepared buyers still have room to negotiate. The median home sells around $300,000, and the typical listing has truly been on the market about 113 days.

Each figure is compared with the same period last year. Where last year's data isn't in our feed yet, you'll see "—".
