Market Analysis

What the data says

Plano's residential market ended the final week of January with 406 active listings, basically the same level we started with this month. Despite last week's extreme winter weather ("Dallaska 2026"), 32 new listings entered the market. That's about the same amount of existing listings that reduced their price.

In the absence of significant closings today (27 homes closed for the week), year-to-date closings stand at 85 at a $499,000 median sold price with a 35-day median DOM. The 147 pending contracts in the pipeline—representing over a third of available inventory—signal that January's contract activity was healthy despite the weather disruption, with those deals expected to close in February. The market's current absorption rate suggests that buyers are selectively active rather than broadly aggressive, creating a nuanced environment that requires careful analysis of market timing. For those considering the market, do they list now with limited competition or wait for warmer spring days?

For Buyers

Plano home buyers entering the market now face a window of limited competition—just 406 active listings and 147 pending contracts in a market that typically sees spring inventory surge in March. Those willing to navigate current conditions have first access to motivated sellers before the spring buyer pool arrives.

For Sellers

Plano home sellers considering the market need to weigh the advantage of limited competition against seasonal buyer traffic patterns. The 30 price reductions this week confirm that overpriced listings aren't finding buyers even with reduced competition, reinforcing the primacy of accurate market timing. For those accepted offers show what pricing actually works in today's market.

With 147 properties currently in contract and only 406 available, Plano's absorption rate tells a different story than headlines suggest. Let's discuss your 2026 strategy—whether you're ready to move now or waiting for spring.
