How does Bastrop compare to its neighbors when buyers and sellers look at price and speed? In September 2026, the city recorded 50 closed sales with a median close price of $382,500. This figure is 10.7% higher than the same month last year but sits below the regional median of $407,250 across 2,710 sales in the same period.
The speed of transactions tells a different story. Homes in Bastrop spent a median of 58 days on market, which is 15.9% faster than the prior year and notably quicker than the broader Bastrop County average of 74 days across 101 sales. The region as a whole averaged 56 days on market, placing Bastrop just slightly above the regional pace in terms of speed but below it in price level.
Price efficiency also varies by geography. The median close-to-original list ratio for Bastrop was 94.1%, matching the regional average exactly. However, homes sold for a lower price per square foot at $195 compared to the region's $204 and the county's $188. While the city shows strong year-over-year price growth of 10.7%, the median living area shrank by 6.3% compared to the prior period, suggesting a shift toward smaller homes in this specific window.
ALEX Intelligence analyzed these comparative figures to highlight how Bastrop's market dynamics differ from its immediate neighbors and the broader region. The data indicates a city that is gaining value faster than last year while maintaining competitive transaction speeds, even as average home sizes contract slightly.
