January 2025 Housing Report

The Fort Worth area’s housing market remains strong, with steady year-over-year increases in home prices across several counties. Fort Worth’s median price rose by 2.7% to $323,450, Tarrant County saw a 2.1% increase to $341,999, and Johnson County experienced a 6.7% jump, bringing its median to $365,056. Meanwhile, Parker County’s median price dropped by 10.7%, though it still holds the highest at $421,500.

Inventory levels vary across the region; Tarrant and Fort Worth are in a seller’s market, with lower inventory (around 3 months) and a notable rise in active listings, while Johnson and Parker counties show more balanced conditions, offering buyers more options with 4.8 to 4.9 months of inventory. Despite these shifts, the market continues to adjust, and inventory is expected to grow as we move into the spring, potentially easing price hikes. Notably, while Parker County saw a decline in median prices, its residential sales surged by 18.2%, indicating a shift toward more affordable homes, while Johnson County’s sales dipped despite rising prices, reflecting a preference for higher-end properties.
