In October, Temple buyers and sellers closed deals at a median of $234,730, with homes selling for 97.9% of their original list price across 18 closed sales. This close-to-original ratio of 0.979 marks a slight improvement from the 0.960 recorded in September and is up 1.6% compared to October 2025, when the median was $257,500. The List-to-Sale Price Ratio measures how close the final sale price lands to the initial asking price. A ratio below 1.0 indicates homes sold for less than listed, while a ratio above 1.0 signals bidding competition. In Temple, 66.7% of closed sales finished below their original list price, a figure that has remained stable compared to last year but is slightly higher than the 65.4% seen in September. ALEX Intelligence analyzed the pricing dynamics across these 18 transactions to determine how effectively listed prices aligned with final outcomes. While the median price per square foot dropped to $142 from $143 in the prior month, the narrowing gap between list and sale prices suggests a market where initial pricing is becoming more accurate for sellers. The data reflects a market where 18 homes changed hands, with the median days on market rising to 50 days, up 4.2% from September and 42.9% higher than the same period last year. This extended timeline, combined with the current ratio, indicates that while sellers are getting closer to their asking prices, patience remains a key factor in closing deals. The analysis is based on Unlock MLS closed sales data for Temple, covering single-family homes, condos, and townhomes. The figures represent ABOR-listed sales only. Want to see this home?
