Denton County Home Sales Rise with Summer Heat

Denton County home sales continued their rise into the summer heat. The dog days of summer are upon us, and schools will be back in session next month. Many prospective home buyers have probably already secured their shelter at this point. It's crunch time for those who haven't found a place. Area home sales rose 5.7 percent year-over-year in June, continuing the slow, steady improvement in transaction volumes. Pending contracts slid 3.3 percent. Seasonality is setting in, and we can expect sales volumes to slow further heading into fall. Home prices in Denton County were [...]

Denton County Housing Market Tries To Climb Out of the Hole

The Denton County housing market continues to climb out of the hole. Home sales were flat for the month of May compared to last year. Pending contracts fell a modest 2.7 percent. Median and average prices were up 1 percent year-over-year. The market continues to clear despite ongoing headwinds. Abundant inventory is helping. Inventory is still plentiful, relatively unchanged after the big spike last year. Months of supply is down slightly to 4.6 months of inventory. We currently have close to six thousand homes for sale across Denton County. We could still eclipse last summer's [...]

Iran War Tax Filters Into Housing Market

The Iran War Tax is filtering into the housing market. Inflationary pressures from higher fuel costs are now eating away at housing demand while Americans' household budgets get slammed with yet another policy blunder. The spring of 2026 was poised to see a rebound in housing activity. Resale inventory has returned to the market and mortgage interest rates seemed like they might stabilize below six percent. Those green shoots for North Texas real estate have been upended by the Trump administration's colossal blunder in the Middle East on behalf of Israel. Fuel prices are up [...]

Denton County Real Estate Market Remains Soft

Denton County's real estate market remained soft in February. Home sales fell 6 percent from the same month a year ago, while median prices slid 4.5 percent. Pending contract activity picked up slightly, rising three percent. After bottoming in January, available inventory has started to pick up again with typical seasonality. Mortgage interest rates briefly dipped into the fives, but conflict in the Middle East has pushed rates and inflation expectations back up again. Area home prices remained under pressure from new construction. Builders have been offering generous discounts and lower prices to move their [...]

Denton County Housing Market Stumbles in January

Denton County's housing market stumbled in January. 2026 isn't off to a great start if you were looking for more home sales volume. January home sales fell 10.4 percent year over-year. Pending contracts fell 9.7 percent. So what happened? Well, for starters inventory hasn't perked up just yet. The seasonal rebound in inventory appears to have been delayed a bit by the big ice storm. It will be interesting to see what the coming weeks have in store as the weather warms up. Area home prices remained soft to start the year. Median home prices [...]

More Intervention Won’t Fix the Housing Market

More intervention won't fix the housing market. This simple truth is obvious to most serious practitioners in the industry. The current affordability challenges facing the U.S. real estate market go well beyond interest rates. Truth is irrelevant to many politicians in an election cycle, so the insanity and market tinkering continues. It was beyond absurd for the Trump administration to pitch the idea of a 50-year mortgage. That half-baked idea from FHFA director William Pulte Jr. fortunately had a fairly short news cycle. With midterms elections in focus and favorability ratings in the basement, Trump [...]

North Texas Housing Market Correction Gets Real

The North Texas housing market correction continues to cause more pain. Median home prices across Denton County collapsed 9.2 percent year-over-year in November. Average prices are down 8.7 percent from last year. Closed sales were down 12 percent from a year ago. With the sharp drop in prices, pending contracts managed a 3 percent increase. As we say in the business, "Price cures all defects". That's certainly true in today's market. Sellers Still in Denial Many prospective sellers were getting their wings clipped this year. We can see this in the cancelled and expired listings. [...]

Trump Administration Proposes 50-Year Mortgage

The Trump administration is working on a plan for a 50-year mortgage. The internet was abuzz this weekend when FHFA director William Pulte Jr. confirmed the rumor. The Federal Finance Housing Agency director suggested it would be a game changing moment for the housing market. President Trump floated the idea on his Truth Social account. The administration is floating the idea of a 50-year mortgage to stimulate a sluggish housing market. We should probably not be surprised by the idea of two wealthy real estate guys grasping at straws to stimulate home sales and credit [...]

Denton County Home Prices Are Lower Than Official Stats

Real Denton County home prices are lower than official stats are reflecting. Official numbers from NTREIS show median home prices in Denton County down 6.5 percent from September of last year. Average prices fell 4.5 percent year-over-year. Real home prices in Denton County are lower than that. The discrepancy between what is getting reported in the media and what's actually happening at the closing table requires a dive into the actual closing data. For better or worse, the North Texas MLS does not require an adjusted sales price field that shows the real closing price [...]
