The short answer

On October 19, 2026, 578 homes and condos were for sale in Port Aransas at a median asking price of $617,550, or $451 a square foot. 222 are under $500,000 and 136 are $1 million or more.

How long homes are sitting

The median listing has been on the market 178 days, and 412 of the 578 (71%) have been listed longer than 120 days. Buyers have room to negotiate: a large share of inventory has been on the market for months.

Condos, houses and the gulf

61% of what's for sale is condos or townhomes. 136 listings describe themselves as gulf-front, beachfront or gulf-view.

Short-term rentals

236 listings mention short-term rental use, rental income or rental history. Rental rules are set by the city or county and change, so confirm current permits and occupancy taxes before buying for income. Rick and Katy run their own luxury rentals on the coast and can walk through the numbers on any listing.

Insurance on the coast

Coastal Texas homes need windstorm coverage (through TWIA or a private carrier) and usually flood insurance. Premiums vary by elevation, age and construction, so ask for current quotes with every listing you consider.

How these numbers are measured

These figures are current listings, not closed sales: Texas does not publish sale prices, so asking prices are the public evidence. Counts are single-family homes, condos and townhomes for sale (leases excluded) in the town's zip codes on October 19, 2026. "Days listed" is days since the listing went live. Gulf-front and rental counts come from listing descriptions, so a listing that didn't mention it isn't counted.
