What the numbers say

Active listings are up 26.8% from last month, so buyers in McKinney generally have more homes to choose from and more room to negotiate on price and seller concessions. Median days on market is down 9.2%, which suggests homes are selling a little faster. Keep in mind that the median list price reflects the mix of homes currently listed. It is not the same thing as home values or an appraisal.

Living and buying in McKinney

Inventory covers a lot of ground: older homes near the downtown square, established 1990s and 2000s neighborhoods, and newer communities to the north and west, including master-planned areas such as Craig Ranch.

US-75, US-380 and McKinney National Airport give residents several ways to get around the region. McKinney ISD serves much of the city, so confirm the zoned campus for any address you're considering.

Good to know

  • Wide range of homes: historic and downtown-adjacent properties versus new construction.
  • Compare resale homes with builder inventory before deciding. Incentives can change the math.
  • School zoning, HOA dues and tax rates vary by address. I check them with you before you make an offer.
