Market figures by town

In September 2026, nearly eight out of ten homes in Caldwell County sold for less than their original asking price. Across 32 closed sales with a median close price of $269,490, the share of transactions below list reached 78.1%, up from 88.1% in August and higher than the 84.2% recorded in September 2025. ALEX Intelligence analyzed listing history to identify which subdivisions saw the most price reductions. Juniper Springs led with 100% of its seven closed sales coming after a price cut, followed by Cotton Gateway at 57%. Sunset Oaks saw cuts in one-third of its six transactions. The median reduction size across the county was $15,000, reflecting a market where sellers adjusted expectations to close deals. The average days on market rose to 46 days, up 4.5% from August, while the median price per square foot dropped 5.6% to $151. This combination of increased reductions and longer listing times signals a shift toward buyer leverage in the local market. The data covers closed sales only for September 2026.
