Market figures by town

In Guadalupe County, every single home sale over the past six months was financed; no cash purchases were recorded among the 86 closed transactions analyzed. This data comes from a rolling six-month window ending October 31, 2026, covering 86 sales with a median close price of $330,750. The absence of cash buyers in this dataset highlights a market where financing remains essential for acquisition. While the county saw a 4.4% increase in median prices compared to the prior six-month period and a 14.1% rise year-over-year, the reliance on traditional mortgages appears universal among these closed deals. The sample size of 86 sales provides a clear picture of current buyer behavior, showing that 0% of transactions were completed with cash. This trend contrasts with broader regional patterns where cash buyers often represent a distinct segment of the market. In Guadalupe County, the data indicates that buyers are uniformly dependent on mortgage financing to close deals. The median contract-to-close time was not reported for this period, but the consistent use of financing suggests standard lending processes are driving the volume of sales. ALEX Intelligence analyzed the financing fields for all 86 closed sales to determine the share of cash versus financed purchases. With zero cash transactions recorded, the market's liquidity relies entirely on mortgage-backed capital during this six-month window. This uniformity in payment method offers a distinct view of buyer composition in the region. Want to see this home? Call or text George at 713.918.9951 for a private showing.
