Burnet vs. Neighbors: How Prices and Speed Compare

Burnet's median closed price of $339,805 sits below the regional median of $400,000 across the same six-month window. This gap reflects a market where prices have softened more sharply here than in the broader Unlock MLS region. Over the trailing 12 months ending Oct 31, 2026, Burnet sales dropped 21.9% year-over-year, while the regional median price remained stable relative to its own recent history. Days on market tell a similar story of slower momentum. Homes in Burnet averaged 79 days on market, compared with 58 days across the region and 101 days for Burnet County as a whole. The local pace is faster than the county average but notably slower than the regional benchmark. This suggests buyers are taking longer to decide in Burnet specifically, even as the wider area moves more quickly. Price-to-list dynamics also diverge. In Burnet, homes closed at 91.1% of their original list price on average, versus 93.8% regionally. Fewer homes sold below original list here (86.4%) than in the broader market (83.5%), yet the overall discounting pressure remains visible. The data indicates a distinct local rhythm where pricing adjustments and negotiation timelines differ from neighboring areas. ALEX Intelligence compared these metrics to highlight how Burnet's supply-demand balance and price sensitivity diverge from its peers. While the region shows resilience, Burnet's unique trajectory reflects localized inventory conditions and buyer behavior over the past six months. Want a closer look?
