Lakeway and Bee Cave: Months of Inventory Signal Buyer Leverage

How many months of homes are available for sale relative to the pace of closings? In Lakeway and Bee Cave, that figure stands at 4.39 months based on 63 closed sales in October 2026. This metric divides the current active inventory of 443 listings by the monthly closing rate, providing a clear gauge of market balance. A reading near 5 to 6 months typically indicates a balanced market, while anything below 4 months favors sellers and above 6 months favors buyers. At 4.39 months, the market is leaning toward buyer leverage, though it remains close to equilibrium. This represents a shift from the tighter conditions seen in prior months when inventory was lower relative to demand. The median home price rose 2.6% from September to $860,000 across these 63 sales, while the time on market extended by 50% compared to the previous month to 57 days. This combination of rising prices and slower absorption suggests that while demand persists, buyers now have more selection and negotiating room than earlier in the year. ALEX Intelligence calculates this inventory level by dividing the active listing count by the trailing monthly closing rate. With nearly 4.4 months of supply, the market is no longer a strict seller's environment, offering purchasers a wider array of options to consider before committing. Want to see this home?
