What does a 10.7% jump in median home prices mean for the Bastrop market this month? In September 2026, the city saw 50 closed sales with a median price of $382,500, up from $345,529 in September 2025. While the number of homes sold dropped 15.3% compared to August, the value per square foot held steady at $195, reflecting a market where prices are rising even as sales volume cools slightly.
ALEX Intelligence analyzed the full dataset to track how quickly properties are moving and what buyers are paying relative to asking prices. Homes spent an average of 58 days on the market, matching August but improving significantly from the 69 days seen last year. The median close-to-original list ratio stood at 0.941, indicating that while most homes sold below their original list price, the gap narrowed slightly compared to the prior month.
Inventory levels remain a key factor for buyers and sellers alike. With 306 active listings and 50 closings in September, the market sits at 5.42 months of inventory. This suggests a balanced environment where neither buyers nor sellers have overwhelming leverage, though the slight dip in sales volume compared to the prior month hints at a cooling demand.
New construction continues to play a major role, accounting for 23 of the 50 closed sales. The median living area for sold homes was 1,955 square feet, slightly smaller than the 2,087 square feet seen in August but consistent with the prior year. As we look ahead, the data shows that while transaction volume fluctuates, price appreciation remains a defining characteristic of the Bastrop market in late 2026.
