Blanco: A Year of Rising Prices and Longer Sales Times

What does a 17.6% jump in median home prices mean for buyers and sellers in Blanco? Over the rolling 12 months ending October 31, 2026, the median close price reached $546,000 across 37 closed sales, up from $464,200 a year earlier. This represents a significant shift in value for the area's single-family homes. ALEX Intelligence analyzed the market dynamics to show that while values are climbing, the pace of transactions has slowed. The median days on market stretched to 114 days, a 34.1% increase compared to the prior period. Homes also sold for slightly less relative to their original list price, with the close-to-original list ratio dropping to 0.928. The supply landscape reflects this cooling in velocity. With 32 active listings and 18 homes closing over the last six months, the market currently holds 10.67 months of inventory. This volume suggests a shift toward buyer leverage compared to the tighter conditions seen previously. Despite the longer selling times, price appreciation remains robust. The median price per square foot rose 5.2% to $258.54, and homes sold are now larger on average, with a median living area of 2,081 square feet. These figures indicate that while the market is moving slower, the properties selling in Blanco command higher valuations than they did a year ago. Want a closer look?
