A few years ago, Dallas–Fort Worth buyers competed in bidding wars and waived inspections. Now they are asking sellers to help cover their costs – and in most transactions, they are getting it. According to Katherine Hubbard of DFW 1% Listings, a flat-fee brokerage in the Dallas–Fort Worth metro, roughly 90 percent of her current ...

When a large landlord or equity fund lists a former rental property in Dallas-Fort Worth, the home that reaches the market is not always what a buyer expects. These were investment assets managed for cash flow, not curb appeal. Deferred maintenance is common. Cosmetic updates were rarely a priority. And for buyers drawn to the ...

A declining median price usually signals a cooling market. In Northeast Dallas, the story is more complicated. The number of homes selling in 2026 has actually increased compared to 2024 and 2025, according to Cindy Dunnican of The Dunnican Team at Coldwell Banker Apex, who has worked the Northeast Dallas market since 1998. But the ...

Homeowners who bought during the 2022–2023 building boom in parts of southern Dallas-Fort Worth are discovering an uncomfortable reality: the new homes going up next door are priced at or below what they paid.

Spokane’s residential market has settled into a pattern that rewards discipline and punishes nostalgia. Sellers who list based on what they remember from a few years ago – when homes drew multiple offers within days – are finding that the market has moved on without them, according to Kim Hagel-Barkley of The Barkley Group in ...

The gap between Houston’s residential market and its coastal neighbor shows what happens when short-term rental speculation meets a correction. Harris County, Texas, currently has roughly six months of housing inventory – enough to classify it as a balanced-to-soft market where sellers need to price carefully and present homes in strong condition. But the sharper ...

The U.S. rental market built aggressively during the pandemic era, particularly in Sunbelt cities like Nashville, Austin, and Dallas. Now much of that new inventory, especially high-end apartments, is sitting partially empty, competing for renters whose budgets have tightened considerably since construction began. The disconnect is straightforward: developers built expensive Class A apartments in markets ...

In Manhattan, that assumption no longer holds across large segments of the market, according to Nikolay Afanasyev, Founder & CEO of CITY SPHERE Property Group, a boutique brokerage covering Manhattan and parts of Brooklyn. Rising building carrying costs, ...

For buyers waiting on the largest purchase of their lives, the appraisal process is one of the last black boxes in a home purchase.
