BOB’S MARKET UPDATE

BOB’S DALLAS REAL ESTATE UPDATE

Dallas Home Sales Stats for January, 2024

We are off to a good start! Sales of single family homes in North Texas were up 14% in January and in the Dallas County portion, up 22% year over year.  Median sales prices inched ahead as well, up 1%, breaking a several months-long losing streak.  Dallas County saw a 6% gain in median sales prices.  Townhome sales also lurched forward, up 10% versus year ago January in North Texas and 20% in Dallas County.

January closings are generated from December contracts for the most part, and it was in December when we experienced a slight reduction in mortgage interest rates to the mid-6% range.  In December 2022, rates were still on the rise, depressing January 2023 sales activity.  The combination of these two interest rate moves created the favorable year-over-year sales response we just witnessed.  But we’ll take it and keep routing for more of the same.

Check out last month’s performance in selected sub markets in the list below. Only sales transacted through the MLS are recorded, so sales are always understated to a small extent.
