The Market Insights Other Buyers and Sellers Don't Have

Your free DFW Housing Market Insider Report

While most people are making six- and seven-figure real estate decisions based on outdated data and generic advice, you're about to see what's really happening in the North Texas market—and what it means for your next move.

Here's the problem with most market updates:
They tell you what happened 90 days ago. They lump all of DFW into one "market." They give you the same generic stats every agent is quoting.

But the DFW market isn't one market—it's multiple markets with dramatically different dynamics:

  • Entry-level homes: 3.5 months of supply (competitive)

  • Mid-market: 4.3 months (balanced)

  • Luxury: 11.2 months (strong buyer advantage)

And prices aren't moving the same direction everywhere. While headlines talk about "the market," savvy buyers and sellers are using segment-specific strategies that match current conditions.

Why This Analysis Is Different

This isn't a generic market update. It's the same intelligence I use to advise buyers competing for homes and sellers positioning properties in a shifting market.

Most agents report backward-looking data. This report shows you where the market is heading by analyzing:

  • Contract pricing - What's going under contract now at lower prices than closed sales

  • Inventory composition - 71% of listings already reduced, with median last cuts just 21 days ago

  • Segment divergence - Luxury vs. entry-level require completely different strategies

  • Failed listing trends - The shadow inventory building for 2026

Translation: You'll know what's coming 60-90 days before most people figure it out.

Here's What's At Stake:

If you're buying: Understanding segment dynamics and timing could save you tens of thousands and prevent you from overpaying in a market that's still finding its floor.

If you're selling: The gap between well-priced listings (selling in 32 days) and hope-priced listings (extending to 90+ days with multiple cuts) is widening. Properties that enter the market correctly still command premium prices.

If you're watching: The 2-3% adjustment through Q1 2026 represents the final phase of normalization—a rational entry or exit point if you understand the dynamics.

About This Analysis

I'm Matt Haistings, a Broker Associate with Compass specializing in the DFW market. I created this report because I was tired of seeing buyers and sellers make major decisions based on generic market data that didn't reflect what was actually happening.

This analysis uses NTREIS MLS data combined with contract pricing trends, inventory composition analysis, and segment-specific dynamics to give you the complete picture—not just the headlines.
