DFW housing market shifts to buyer advantage mid-2025 with rising inventory and longer selling times. Sage Senior Support offers free consultations to help families navigate home sales during senior living transitions.
-- The Dallas-Fort Worth housing market at mid-2025 presents a changing landscape for families in transition. Market data shows a clear shift toward buyer advantage, with inventory up 53% to 123,000 homes in April 2025 and 66% of properties selling below list price in March. This reversal from recent years' seller-dominated conditions creates both challenges and opportunities for homeowners considering their next steps.

For families managing senior living transitions, these market conditions create important timing considerations. Properties now remain available for an average of 72 days versus 48 days in May 2024, while median time-to-sale has increased from 19 to 30 days year-over-year. The close-to-list price ratio has settled at 99%, down significantly from the 105% seen during the market peak when homes routinely sold above asking price.
Regional variations show Collin County experiencing the strongest price adjustment with a 3.7% median price decrease and 60% more inventory. Denton County reports 63% more available homes, while Dallas County maintains slight price growth despite extended selling periods. Rockwall, Kaufman, and Hunt counties now firmly favor buyers with inventory levels approaching or exceeding six months—a threshold traditionally marking a balanced market.
The median DFW home price reached $396,870 in Q3 2024, down 0.8% from 2023. This aligns with broader consumer perspectives, as a Fannie Mae survey found 74% of respondents believe current conditions make home purchases challenging. For sellers, particularly those transitioning to senior living arrangements, these statistics highlight the importance of strategic planning and realistic pricing.
Months of inventory have increased to 4 months in 2025 from 3 months in 2024, indicating a market that still technically favors sellers but is moving toward balance. For families weighing whether to sell a parent's home to fund senior care, this shift raises questions about optimal timing and preparation strategies to maximize value in a cooling market.

These sessions address market timing, pricing approaches, and selling options from traditional listings to as-is sales, helping families make financially sound choices during emotionally complex transitions.
