Burnet County: Is It a Buyer's Market in September?

Burnet County currently holds 7.92 months of inventory based on the 58 closed sales recorded in September. This figure is calculated by dividing the 544 active listings available today by the monthly closing rate of roughly 7 homes (derived from 412 closings over the last six months). A market with more than six months of supply generally indicates a shift toward buyer conditions, as sellers face longer wait times to find qualified purchasers. The median sale price for single-family homes in Burnet County stood at $330,000 in September, unchanged from August but down 17.5% compared to the same month last year when the median was $400,000. Homes are also taking longer to sell; the median days on market rose to 88 days, a 37.5% increase from the prior period and a 91.3% jump from September 2025. ALEX Intelligence analyzes these metrics to classify market conditions. With inventory levels exceeding the six-month threshold typically required for a balanced market, combined with rising days on market and reduced sale-to-list ratios, the data suggests buyers currently have more negotiating leverage. This environment favors those looking to purchase without the pressure of bidding wars, though prices remain stable month-over-month. The classification relies on the ratio of active inventory to recent sales velocity. As long as new listings do not significantly outpace closings, this buyer-favorable dynamic is expected to persist in the short term. Shopping in Burnet County?
