Burnet County saw a distinct shift in September 2026 as the median sale price dropped to $319,000 across 61 closed sales, down 20.2% from the same month last year when prices were $400,000. Despite this cooling in value, market activity accelerated with 61 closings compared to just 53 in September 2025, representing a 15.1% increase in volume. The median home size also contracted, falling to 1,763 square feet from 2,000 square feet a year ago, a decline of 11.8%. Current market conditions reflect a shift toward buyers, with the median days on market stretching to 89 days, up 93.5% from last September's 46 days. Only 85.2% of homes sold below their original list price, slightly better than the 94.3% recorded in September 2025, while the close-to-original list ratio held at 93.1%. Inventory remains elevated with 7.7 months of supply available today, suggesting a balanced to buyer-leaning environment. New construction activity stabilized with 18 closings in September, down from 43 in August but comparable to the 19 closings seen in September 2025. With mortgage rates at 7.32% according to Freddie Mac data for the week of October 22, 2026, affordability remains a key factor. The ALEX Intelligence executive summary indicates that while transaction volume is recovering, price corrections continue as the market adjusts to higher borrowing costs and increased supply.
