Living in Navasota, Texas
Navasota is the largest city in Grimes County, at the SH 6 and SH 105 junction, and the Texas Legislature named it the Blues Capital of Texas in 2005 for native son Mance Lipscomb. Pecan Lakes Estates is the main subdivision; the rest of the inventory is in-town lots and acreage.
Get to know Navasota
Welcome to Navasota
Navasota ISD serves the city. About a quarter of listings carry an acre or more, and the Navasota and Brazos river bottoms put a meaningful share inside a FEMA special flood hazard area.
Acreage tracts still list beside the plats here, and a sizeable minority of homes carry an acre or more. New construction is a substantial minority of the listings — roughly a quarter to a third — and the rest is resale, with a median build year in the 2010s. FEMA special flood hazard areas take in a meaningful minority of the listings, and each home shows its zone. Below, the live figures from our MLS feed: what is listed, what it sells for, and how fast.

The Navasota real estate market
What the numbers mean
Not just numbers — what they tell you. Median price, how fast homes really sell, where prices are heading, and which neighborhoods are heating up. Live from our MLS feed, with Allen's plain-English read.
Navasota is tilting toward buyers right now — about 6.2 months of inventory, yet roughly 41% of active sellers have already cut their price, so well-prepared buyers still have room to negotiate. The median home sells around $245,000, and the typical listing has truly been on the market about 108 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 "—".

Neighborhoods & communities
Navasota isn't one market
it's dozens
Navasota spans 4+ active communities — each with its own pricing, amenities and feel. Search the list or explore the map — hover either one and the other lights up, with live numbers for that neighborhood.
Layered communities: in Navasota, smaller neighborhoods often sit inside a larger master-planned community — so those homes pay two HOA fees, and the MLS lists both. Where footprints overlap on the map, click the same spot more than once to step through the stacked HOAs (smallest first).
4 of 4 communities
How this works: footprints are the convex hull of each community's listings over the last five years (active plus sold) — a denser, more representative outline from our own data, but still an approximation, not a surveyed HOA boundary. Numbers (active, pending, avg price, new-30d) are live from the AWS MLS feed for Navasota, residential for-sale only. 4 communities with 3+ active listings shown.
