Bastrop County: How List Prices Compare to Final Sales

In Bastrop County, homes sold for an average of 94.2% of their original list price over the last six months. This figure represents the median close-to-original list ratio across 689 closed sales in the rolling six-month window ending September 30, 2026. The metric compares the final agreed-upon sale price to the initial asking price when a property hit the market. ALEX Intelligence analyzed this pricing dynamic by calculating the ratio of final sale prices to original list prices for every transaction. The data shows that 83.9% of these homes sold below their original list price, while the remaining sales met or exceeded the asking amount. This ratio has improved slightly compared to the prior six-month period, rising from 91.7% to 94.2%, indicating that sellers are retaining more of their initial pricing expectations than they did earlier in the year. When viewed against the same period last year, the current ratio of 94.2% is marginally lower than the 94.8% recorded previously. However, the median days on market has dropped significantly by 23.1% compared to the prior six months, suggesting that while prices are slightly more negotiable now, homes are moving faster. The median sale price for these transactions stands at $345,000, with a median price per square foot of $188. This analysis relies on 689 closed sales, ensuring the trend reflects actual market behavior rather than listing speculation. For buyers and sellers in Bastrop County, this ratio serves as a critical benchmark for setting realistic expectations during negotiations. Curious what your Bastrop County home would sell for today?
