If you're looking to purchase a new home, there's no better place to be than North Texas.
A new report from WalletHub found North Texas is home to five of the top ten real estate markets in the nation!
According to the Dallas Morning News, WalletHub "examined 300 cities of varying sizes across 17 key indicators of housing-market attractiveness and economic strength to determine the nation's top local real estate market."
The top ten markets included:
1 – McKinney
2 – Cary, NC
3 – Irvine, CA
4 – Durham, NC
5 – Richardson
6 – Frisco
7 – Gilbert, AZ
8 – Nashville, TN
9 – Denton
10 – Allen
In another study, McKinney was previously named "the best city in America for renters to live."
WalletHub analyst Chip Lupo said, "McKinney has the second-highest share of houses that were built between 2010 and 2023, at roughly 38%, which means that new buyers have a lot of options for houses that may not need major maintenance for a while.
"In addition, McKinney ranks among the 40 least expensive cities for maintenance and telephone, and energy costs. To top things off, McKinney has the 11th-highest job growth rate in the nation, at nearly 21% annually."
Of DFW as a whole, Lupo added, "the Dallas-Fort Worth metro area stands out as a strong real estate market largely because of a combination of new housing inventory, ongoing development and solid local economies."
