Dallas Luxury Market Update — June 2025


🔹 Market Shifting Toward Buyers

The Dallas market is leaning more toward buyers in the $750K to $8M range. With inventory building and more homes sitting longer, high-end buyers have gained leverage.

  • Many homes are selling below list price, particularly those over $1.5M
  • Negotiation is back — concessions, upgrades, and seller credits are on the table
  • It’s a smart time for buyers to explore the high-end market with confidence

🔹 Sales Pace Softens, Prices Hold

While appreciation has leveled off slightly, prices in Dallas’ upper market remain strong, especially in areas like Preston Hollow, University Park, and Lakewood.

  • Most listings are taking 50–60+ days to sell
  • $750K–$1.2M homes are seeing the most activity, with multiple showings
  • $2M+ homes are moving slower, but buyers are selectively submitting offers

🔹 More Inventory = More Options

Dallas now has nearly 6 months of luxury inventory, a shift from recent years.

  • Listings in the $1M–$3M range are most plentiful
  • Buyers can shop remodeled estates, new construction, and gated communities
  • Sellers must price smart and offer strong presentation to compete

🔹 Affordability Pressure Still Matters

Even in higher price points, affordability factors are impacting buyer behavior:

  • Monthly payments are up due to rate increases on jumbo loans
  • Buyers are more cautious, and many expect added value for premium pricing
  • Cash buyers and investors are still active in the $750K–$2M bracket

💡 What This Means for You

🏠 For Buyers:

  • Now is the time to explore options and negotiate added value
  • High-quality listings are available without the frenzy of last year
  • If you’re well-qualified, you’ll have your pick of the market

🏠 For Sellers:

  • Price competitively and focus on curb appeal and staging
  • Homes above $1.5M must be marketed aggressively to stand out
  • Expect buyers to shop around and request flexibility
