Burnet: How List-to-Sale Ratios Shifted in the Last Six Months
By George Arnold Alexander III, MPA · Associate Broker · 2026-10-10
What does a 91.3% list-to-sale ratio mean for buyers and sellers in Burnet? This metric compares the final closing price to the original listing price, revealing how much negotiation power exists in the market. Over the rolling six months ending September 30, 2026, homes sold for an average of 91.3% of their asking price across 110 closed sales.
This figure represents a slight decline from the prior six-month period, where the ratio stood at 92.3%. The data shows that while prices remain resilient, sellers are accepting offers further below their initial list prices more frequently than before. Specifically, 90% of homes sold for less than the original list price during this window, compared to 89.2% in the prior period.
ALEX Intelligence analyzed the pricing trends across these transactions to determine that the market has shifted slightly toward buyer leverage. The median sale price of $332,500 reflects a 5.0% decrease from the previous six-month average of $350,000. However, the price per square foot rose to $207, up 4.0% from the prior period, suggesting that while overall prices dipped, value per unit of living space increased.
For sellers, this indicates a need for realistic initial pricing strategies. For buyers, it suggests opportunities to negotiate closer to or below the original list price without facing intense bidding wars. The trend confirms that the Burnet market is currently favoring those who can wait for negotiations to conclude rather than paying full asking price immediately.
