If you live here in North Texas, you’ve probably noticed the weather can’t seem to make up its mind lately. We wrapped up October with warm days, dipped into a cold snap, and then bounced right back into the 80s.
Interestingly enough, the housing market is behaving the same way.
Some areas are still running hot, others are warming up, and a few remain on the cooler side. It’s a mix of conditions that has made this fall season one of the most unpredictable we’ve seen in years.
So the big question is this:
Is the real estate market finally turning the corner?
In this month’s update, we take a look at what’s happening nationally and then zoom in on what the latest data shows for Frisco and Prosper — two neighboring markets moving in two very different directions.

National Market Overview
The national data this month paints a picture of a market that’s been stuck for quite some time — but is now showing early signs of thawing.
Home Turnover Rate (Historically Low)
Historical Turnover Perspective
For the past couple of years, homeowners with low mortgage rates have stayed put, buyers have been waiting for prices or rates to fall, and sales activity slowed to its lowest point in decades.
Why Has the Market Been So Stuck?
Here are the big three reasons:
Affordability challenges have kept many buyers on the sidelines
Low mortgage rates have kept sellers locked into their current homes
Economic uncertainty has made many people hesitant to make big moves
Signs Things May Be Improving

Final Thoughts
Nationally, the market is slowly beginning to thaw — but locally, the picture is mixed.
Frisco is showing signs of renewed strength.
Prosper is still feeling the effects of slower sales and elevated new construction inventory.
As always, real estate is hyperlocal, and even “neighboring” markets can move in different directions.
