In Burnet, homes are selling for less than their original asking prices more often than before. ALEX Intelligence analyzed the relationship between original list prices and final sale prices across 110 closed sales in the rolling six months ending September 30, 2026. The median close-to-original list ratio stood at 91.3%, down from 92.3% in the prior six-month period and 92.6% a year ago.
This metric indicates how much of the original asking price buyers ultimately paid. A ratio below 100% means homes sold for less than listed, while a higher ratio suggests competitive bidding. The current figure of 91.3% reflects a shift where sellers are accepting lower offers more frequently. Additionally, 90% of closed sales in this window fell below the original list price, compared to 89.2% previously and 89% a year ago.
The median sale price for these homes was $332,500, down 5.0% from the prior period and 1.3% lower than the same window last year. While prices dipped, the median price per square foot rose to $207, up 4.0% from the previous six months. This suggests that while total transaction values decreased, the value per unit of living space remained resilient or increased slightly in this market segment.
ALEX Intelligence fit a pricing model to these local sales to estimate how list prices translate to final outcomes. The data shows a clear trend where buyers have more leverage to negotiate below the initial asking price compared to historical norms in Burnet.
