Bastrop Cash vs. Financed Purchases in October

In October 2026, the Bastrop market recorded 46 closed sales with a median price of $378,700. While this volume represents a 1% increase compared to the same month last year, the data reveals a gap regarding payment methods. The dataset does not contain records for cash versus financed purchases for these transactions, leaving the share of cash buyers unquantified for this period. Typically, Topic 19 analyzes the split between all-cash deals and those requiring financing to gauge investor activity or affordability constraints. Without specific fields tracking the financing type at closing, we cannot calculate the percentage of buyers paying in full versus those using mortgages. This absence prevents a complete view of buyer liquidity in the current month. The available metrics show that 19 of the 46 sales were new construction, and the median days on market stretched to 82 days. Buyers who did secure financing faced a mortgage rate of 7.18% as of early November, which influences monthly payments significantly. However, the specific count or percentage of cash transactions remains unavailable in this run. ALEX Intelligence notes that while other KPIs like median price and days on market are robust for this sample size, the financing breakdown is missing. Consequently, a full analysis of cash versus financed purchasing power cannot be generated for October 2026 without the underlying transaction data. Want to see this home?
