Market figures by town

In October 2026, 83% of single-family homes in Bastrop County sold for less than their original list price across 84 closed sales. This share represents a drop from the prior month and marks an 8.8 percentage point decrease compared to the same period last year, indicating that while price reductions remain common, the intensity of cuts has moderated slightly. ALEX Intelligence analyzed listing history to identify which subdivisions saw the most frequent price adjustments. The Colony led with 94% of its 17 closed sales requiring a price cut, followed by Tahitian Village at 62% and Harvest Ridge at 60%. These figures reflect the median days on market for these areas, where homes in The Colony averaged 145 days before selling compared to 72 days in Tahitian Village. The median close-to-original list ratio stood at 92.7%, down from 93% in September and slightly above the 91.7% recorded last October. Median prices fell 2.0% month-over-month to $330,545, while the median price per square foot dropped 5.5% to $174.17. Sellers who reduced their asking prices saw an average reduction size that contributed to these lower final sale figures. With 6.24 months of inventory available and a median days on market of 97, buyers in Bastrop County continue to have leverage. The data suggests that while the market is not crashing, strategic pricing remains essential for sellers to move properties within a reasonable timeframe.
