Brushy Creek: How List Prices Compare to Final Sells

In Brushy Creek, buyers and sellers are negotiating closer to the original asking price than in prior periods. Over the rolling six months ending October 31, 2026, homes sold for a median of $645,000 across 79 closed sales. The median close-to-original list ratio stood at 96%, meaning final prices were lower than initial asking prices. ALEX Intelligence analyzed the relationship between original list prices and final sale prices to explain this gap. This metric, known as the list-to-sale price ratio, reveals how much negotiation occurs after a home hits the market. In Brushy Creek, 86% of closed sales finished below their original list price, compared to 65% in the prior six-month window. While the median price rose 13% from the previous period, the gap between list and sale prices widened slightly. The ratio dropped 0.6% month-over-month and is down 0.8% from the same period last year. This suggests that while demand remains strong enough to push prices up, sellers are facing more competition or pricing adjustments that result in larger discounts at closing. The median price per square foot also increased to $234, a 5.9% rise over the prior six months. Homes sold faster than they did a year ago, with days on market dropping 19%, yet the final price still reflects significant negotiation from the original list. This data indicates a market where initial pricing strategies are increasingly tested against buyer expectations. Want to see this home? Call or text George at 713.918.9951 for a private showing.
