Dallas housing market forecast
In the Dallas, TX metro, Zillow's forecast shows −0.9% over the 12 months beginning September 2026, and −0.3% over the three months ahead. That would put Dallas's typical value of $303,442 near $300,700 a year on.
This forecast restates Zillow's own central estimate for the metro; the site does not publish a forecast of its own. Forecasts of this kind over 12 months have typically landed several percentage points away from the realised change, in both directions. This is not investment advice.

How to read this chart
Each point on the chart marks the Zillow Home Value Index for Dallas. That is the value of the typical home in the market's middle third, smoothed and seasonally adjusted, shown in that month's dollars. The hollow dot marks the month picked on the slider; the terracotta dot marks the latest month. No inflation adjustment applies to these numbers, and an index tracks the typical home rather than one particular house. To find what a single home is worth, use its own sale price with the card just above it, or with the appreciation calculator.
