Cash vs. Financed Purchases in Bertram

In Bertram, the share of buyers paying entirely in cash cannot be calculated from the available data for the current analysis window. The dataset records zero cash transactions among the 71 closed sales over the rolling six months ending September 30, 2026. This absence of recorded cash purchases suggests that financing remains the primary method for acquiring homes in this market during this period. The median sale price for these 71 transactions was $311,999, representing a 7.4% increase compared to the prior six-month period and a 6.4% rise from the same window last year. While cash purchase data is unavailable, the reliance on mortgage financing is evident in the broader market context where the median contract-to-close duration was not recorded for this specific sample, but the overall market activity shows steady movement. ALEX Intelligence notes that without a sufficient count of cash sales to establish a trend or ratio, we cannot determine the current split between cash and financed buyers. The data indicates that all 71 closed sales in this window were financed transactions. This pattern highlights the importance of mortgage availability and interest rates for Bertram buyers, as no alternative payment method appears to have been utilized in the recorded closings during this timeframe. For context, the median price per square foot was $169, down 2.9% from the prior period but 15.9% lower than the same time last year. The market continues to operate with a median of 56 days on market, which is 3.4% faster than the previous six months but 14.3% slower than the prior year. Want to see this home?
