What This Means for Buyers
With inventory still below 3 months, competition remains real — especially in the $300K–$450K range. Getting pre-approved before you search isn't optional, it's essential. The buyers winning right now are the ones who are prepared to move fast and make clean offers.
What This Means for Sellers
Sellers who price correctly and present well are still seeing strong activity. Overpriced homes are sitting longer as buyers become more selective. Strategic pricing, professional presentation, and targeted marketing are what separate a fast sale from a stale listing.

DFW rental rates remain elevated across all markets. Cap rates of 5–7% are achievable in mid-tier markets. Investor activity remains high, particularly in the $200K–$350K price range.
