DFW Real Estate Market Update — February 2025
Published by Adam Nelson | Adam Nelson Realty | Dallas, TX
"The big question is whether you will say 'yes' to your adventure."
That's how Adam thinks about real estate: an adventure. Whether he's helping a couple step up to their next home, assisting a family in trading their larger older house for something newer and more manageable, or representing a savvy investor looking for their next deal — everyone has a story, and being part of it never gets old.
February is already showing strong activity in DFW. More homes are coming to market and more deals are going pending — buyers have been taking advantage of stable rates and making moves. If you're thinking about buying, selling, or investing, the market is ready for you.

🏡 DFW Real Estate Market Snapshot — February 2025
Months of Inventory: 4.2 months (up 31% vs. February 2024)
Average Days on Market: 69 days (up 15% vs. February 2024)
Sales Price vs. Original List Price: 96% on average (flat vs. February 2024)
What this means: Inventory is 31% higher than last February, and homes are sitting about two weeks longer before going under contract — which translates directly to more negotiating room for buyers. The flip side: prices are holding. Sellers who price correctly are still closing at 96 cents on the dollar. Spring is historically the hottest stretch of the year for DFW real estate, and with more inventory in the pipeline heading in, both buyers and sellers have real opportunities ahead.
