Insider Opinions
“What can one say about Dallas? This is a strong real estate market for homes or
investments. Dallas is home to the funded Trinity River Project.”
Kathy Murray, Abio A.H.K Realty
“Dallas area enjoys a strong inventory of new construction and pre-owned homes in an
array of neighborhoods. Activity for home sales is quite good.”
Bill Lovell, MakeTexasHome.com

4. Dallas Market Summary
The Texas mortgage market slowed Fall
2007, creating less qualified buyers.
The mortgage market most affected was the
sub-prime sector, including “Jumbo” loans and
non-owner occupant.
Inventory has increased to 90-days in some
areas of Dallas, signaling a shifting market
(not buyer’s or seller’s).
Well-priced Dallas homes in nice areas are
seeing multiple offers.
Buyers must act quickly for the best pricing.

8. Market Reminders**
When a market shifts, the initial
downturn can feel shocking. The
market will often start to stabilize
within 3-6 months, depending on how
rapidly it appreciated.
Buyers should purchase during a
“buyer’s market”, when sellers will
be most realistic and willing to
provide incentives.
Dallas sellers can sell within 60-90
days if they price aggressively, use
staging, and look better than any
other home on the market for the
price.
Buyers should get comparative
market analysis to see which homes
are priced well, then act fast.
