Fort Worth home sellers can expect a 5.8 percent price premium in mid-April

Homes listed in the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex during the week of April 12-18 are expected to list for $24,000 more than they were at the start of the year, a 5.8 percent increase. This surge in demand is driven by a combination of stable mortgage rates, which currently stand at 6.38 percent for a 30-year fixed loan, and seasonal buyer interest. Home listings in the area are expected to receive 23.5 percent more views during this window, and properties spend nine fewer days on the market compared to the average week. This shift follows a period of where homebuyers were sidelined by limited inventory and high rates, but rates stabilized in late 2025.
