DFW Real Estate continues to dominate national headlines as the top market for buyers and sellers. As a North Texas realtor with 40+ years combined experience, I'm thrilled but not surprised by this recognition.
According to the PwC and Urban Land Institute Emerging Trends in Real Estate 2026 report, Dallas-Fort Worth earned the #1 spot for the second consecutive year. The report surveyed over 1,700 real estate investors, developers, and advisors nationwide. DFW topped the list for both commercial and homebuilding prospects.
Our region offers unmatched accessibility, a lower cost of living, and an incredibly business-friendly environment. Texas has no corporate or personal income tax. These factors continue to attract major corporations and families alike.
CBRE's 2025 analysis reveals Dallas-Fort Worth gained 100 corporate headquarters between 2018 and 2024. That's more than any other metro area in the country. In 2024 alone, 96 companies announced headquarters moves nationally. Texas claimed 19 of those relocations.
High-profile relocations include Charles Schwab, McKesson, CBRE, and KFC moving to Plano. The value of public companies based in the Metroplex doubled to $1.5 trillion in just five years. Financial services firms are increasingly choosing Dallas-Fort Worth for their expanding operations.
Families continue moving to Collin County for top-rated schools and vibrant communities. Allen TX, Frisco Texas, McKinney Plano Prosper, and surrounding areas offer exceptional quality of life.
The Texas Education Agency released 2024-2025 accountability ratings showing strong results across Collin County. Wylie ISD earned a 92 rating with every campus receiving an A grade. Prosper ISD and Allen ISD both earned 91 ratings. Frisco ISD continues to earn A+ grades from Niche.com and ranks among the top school districts in Texas.
These top-rated schools make our communities ideal for families looking to buy or sell a home.
For buyers, Dallas-Fort Worth's steady demand means homes for sale hold their value well. Strong population growth keeps buyer interest high in sought-after areas. Plano, Fairview, Lucas, and Celina remain popular destinations.
For sellers, the combination of corporate relocations and population growth creates consistent buyer demand. As a luxury home specialist, I've seen this firsthand. Properties in premier Collin County neighborhoods continue attracting qualified buyers.
