What I cover

What Dallas Market Updates Cover

Real estate news for Dallas and the DFW housing market, from a local agent: what prices, rates and inventory mean for buyers and sellers, neighborhood spotlights, and closing-day stories from my clients.

I focus on the places I work: Sunnyvale, Forney, Mesquite and Dallas County, and the towns around them in North Texas. Jump to the latest posts.

My commitment

At Least One New Post a Month

I publish at least one new post a month, plus market updates when something changes that you should know about. Each one answers a question my clients are asking right now.

The trends

Dallas Housing Market Trends and Updates

Rates and affordability

What a change in rates means for your monthly payment, and why pre-approval comes first.

Prices and pace

How fast homes are selling, and how pricing is moving in the towns I serve.

Buyers or sellers

Who has the leverage this month, and what that means for your offer or your listing.

Why read it

From a Dallas Agent, Not a Portal

A portal shows you numbers. I tell you what they mean for a real move. I am a native Texan and Dallasite who has lived in Creek Crossing Estates since 2002, and I write about the streets I sell on.

Straight answers

Questions About the Dallas Housing Market

What is happening in the Dallas housing market?

It moves month to month and town to town, which is why I write about it every month. My latest market update is in the posts below. For your street, call me and I will pull the recent sales.

Is there a housing bubble in Dallas?

No one can promise where prices go. What I watch for my clients are the things that make a market fragile or steady: how fast homes sell, how many are for sale, and whether buyers can still afford the payment. I share what I see in my monthly updates.

Is buying a house worth it right now?

It depends on your plans more than the headlines. You can refinance a rate later; you cannot change the price you paid or the location. If you plan to stay, can afford the payment and have a pre-approval, it is worth a call to plan it.

Is now a good time to buy a house in Dallas?

The right time is when your budget, your plans and the right home line up. I can refer you to a lender for pre-approval, help you compare neighborhoods and negotiate for you when you are ready.

Is it a buyers' market or a sellers' market in Dallas?

It can be both at once, depending on the town and the price range. I tell buyers and sellers which way it leans for their home before they make a move.
