Do You Think the Housing Market’s About To Crash? Read This First



Headlines scream “housing crash,” but here in Texas, the story is different. Austin, Dallas, Houston, San Antonio each market is shifting, not collapsing


    Late 2025: Buyers vs. Sellers in Texas


    Buyers’ Advantages Sellers’ Advantages
    More inventory = more choices across Austin, Dallas, Houston, and San Antonio Low supply overall still supports home values
    More time to decide — fewer bidding wars, less pressure Equity gains from the last 5 years keep most sellers in a strong position
    Stronger negotiating power: closing costs, repairs, or price adjustments Well-priced homes are still selling quickly
    Ability to compare and choose move-in-ready homes Staging, marketing, and presentation make listings stand out
    Rates may feel high, but stability allows better planning (and potential to refinance later) Buyers are motivated — relocations, job growth, and population gains keep demand steady
