Are you thinking about a new pad for fall?
As summer winds down and we transition into fall, you might be thinking about your next move. Things are hopping in the North Dallas suburbs, making it an ideal time to explore your options.
Whether you’re considering buying, selling, or both, the cooler months present unique opportunities in the real estate market.
Here’s how to decide if this fall is the right time for you:
Identify Your Goals:
Why are you considering a change? Do you want to upsize, downsize, or simply find a new neighborhood? All valid. Understanding your reasons will help guide your decisions.
Assess the Current Market:
Recent activity indicates that fall should be a healthy market. If trends continue, there may be less competition among buyers and more motivated sellers. Oddly, this can work to your advantage, whether buying or selling.
Take a look at the current market activity in Collin, Denton, and Dallas Counties. The data is right here on our website. This is not old news—it’s updated constantly. You can see sold, active, and pending listings, tons of photos, descriptions, graphs, and history.

Consider the Benefits:
Timing is always a key factor when considering a move. Listing in the fall can attract serious buyers who want to close before the holidays. If you’re buying, you might find better deals and a more relaxed market.
Check with your tax professional to see if you would benefit from year-end tax breaks if you close before December 31.
Plan Financially:
Review your finances to make sure you’re ready for the transaction. Whether you’re buying, selling, or both, being financially prepared will make the process smoother. This is no time for surprises.
