Allen market snapshot
Current listing activity from NTREIS MLS data, compiled by Mike Montgomery, with the change from the previous month.
What the numbers say
Active listings are down 31.5% from last month, so there are fewer homes to choose from. Buyers may need to move faster on well-priced homes. Median days on market is up 7.3%, which suggests homes are taking longer to sell. The median list price can swing when the mix of homes on the market changes, such as more new construction or fewer luxury listings. It is not the same thing as home values or an appraisal.

Living and buying in Allen
Most of Allen was developed between the 1990s and 2000s, so resale homes dominate. Watters Creek and Allen Premium Outlets anchor shopping and dining, and the Allen Event Center hosts concerts and sports.
Allen ISD serves the city. With limited vacant land left, price changes often reflect the age and condition of homes more than new supply, so it's worth comparing recent sales on the same street.
Good to know
- Largely resale: have the age of the roof, HVAC and major systems checked.
- US-75 gives direct access to McKinney, Plano and Dallas.
- School zoning, HOA dues and tax rates vary by address. I check them with you before you make an offer.
