Whether you’re a first-time buyer, seasoned investor, or planning your next move, the North Dallas real estate market remains one of the most talked-about and misunderstood regions in Texas. With all the buzz about prices, rates, and shifting demand, it’s easy to feel unsure about what’s really going on.

So let’s clear the air. 👇
In this post, I’m breaking down:

📊 What’s actually trending in Dallas, Richardson, and Plano
❌ The biggest myths I hear every week from buyers and sellers
🔮 What to expect in 2025 across North Texas

It’s time to separate fact from fiction and understand what these trends really mean for your next move in the Dallas market.

🏡 TREND: Demand Is Still High, Especially in Key Suburbs

Despite higher interest rates, neighborhoods like Plano, Richardson, Allen, and Frisco are still hot. Why? Because these areas offer a rare combo of:

• Top-rated schools
• Convenient commutes
• Family-friendly amenities
• Strong property value retention

Homes in the $400K–$800K range are especially competitive when well-priced and updated. And yes, we're still seeing multiple offers in select areas—even if it's not a full-on frenzy like 2021.

💬 MYTH #1: “The Market Is Crashing—I'm Just Gonna Wait It Out.”

This one keeps resurfacing. But here’s the truth:
North Dallas is correcting, not crashing.Prices may have stabilized in some pockets, but we’re not seeing steep drops. Demand continues, especially from buyers relocating from the coasts and from investors who know DFW is a long-term play.📉 Waiting may cost you more in the form of higher interest rates or lost equity over time.

🔥 TREND: Inventory Is Still Tight

We’re seeing more homes hit the market than last year, but we’re still nowhere near pre-2020 inventory levels. Many homeowners are sitting tight, holding on to their sub-4% mortgage rates.This limited supply—especially for move-in-ready homes—keeps competition strong in places like:

• Canyon Creek in Richardson
• Legacy West-area homes in Plano
• Twin Creeks in Allen
• Panther Creek and Starwood in Frisco

💬 MYTH #2: “Every Home Is Overpriced Right Now.”

Not true.Overpriced listings do exist (and sit). But many homes are priced based on recent comps and neighborhood appreciation. A well-priced home in great condition will still sell quickly—especially when it offers lifestyle value: schools, parks, walkability, or modern finishes.🧠 Pro Tip: Focus less on price drops and more on value. Is the home priced right for what it offers?

🔮 What Comes Next? Here’s What to Watch in 2025:

1. Continued Migration into North Dallas

With ongoing corporate relocations and tech growth in the region, expect buyer demand to stay healthy. Frisco’s Universal Studios project and planned infrastructure expansions will only fuel the fire.

2. Interest Rate Fluctuations

Keep an eye on Federal Reserve decisions. Even small shifts in interest rates will affect affordability and buyer urgency.

3. More Focus on Quality and Lifestyle

Buyers are becoming more selective. Outdoor living, updated kitchens, flexible spaces, and proximity to quality schools will drive top-dollar offers.

📍Final Thoughts: Should You Buy or Sell Now?

If you’re buying:
Don’t try to time the bottom. Instead, focus on finding a well-priced home that meets your needs and works with your budget. Work with a hyper-local agent (hi 👋🏼) who knows how to negotiate smart in this evolving market.If you’re selling:
Now is still a great time to sell—if you price it right and prep it properly. Homes that are staged and marketed well (especially in North Dallas) are still moving quickly.
