What North Texas actually sells for.
Every closed sale across the Dallas–Fort Worth cities we work in — 73,835 of them over the last twelve months, $38.65B in all — turned into plain answers for buyers and sellers. The median home went for $400,000 (≈ $2,335/mo with 10% down) and found its buyer in 36 days.
The average runs 31% above the middle, which is the high end of Dallas–Fort Worth pulling it up. The median is the better read on a typical home; the average is the better read on how much money is moving.
So — whose market is it?
Supply against sales pace, updated every night. This is the number that decides how hard each side gets to negotiate.
Supply and demand are roughly matched — well-priced homes move, overpriced ones sit. Right now that's 36,458 homes on the market against a pace of 6,153 sales a month, median asking $429,000.

How the market moved.
Every point is a full month of closed sales — the current partial month never renders, so the lines mean what they appear to mean.
Each calendar month averaged across the two years of data above, for our market as a whole. A pattern, not a promise — the right time to move is when your life says so.
What does your budget actually buy?
Slide it. Cities come in and out of reach, and the same dollars buy very different square footage across the metroplex.
“In reach” means the city's median sale price is at or below your budget, so roughly half the homes there sold for less. Size is your budget over that city's median price per square foot. Payment is principal & interest, 30-year fixed, 10% down — an estimate, not an offer.
Price it right, or pay for it.
Two groups, one market: homes that sold for the price they were first listed at, and homes that sold for less. Same year, same buyers, very different endings — first at the typical price here, then at whatever number you want to try.
Every home was first listed at some price. In our market, 23.7% of homes sold for that first number or better. The other 76.3% sold for less than they first asked. On a $400,000 home, here is how those two endings differ.
Read it as a pattern, not a promise. Some homes sell under their first price for reasons no strategy would fix: condition, a hard location, a seller who had to move fast. But the split looks like this in every city in this report, and the first number is the one thing a seller gets to choose. Based on 73,814 sales in our market over the window.
