Dallas-Fort Worth stands out as the most attractive market in the United States for real estate investment and development in the coming year, according to PriceWaterhouseCoopers and Urban Land Institute’s “Emerging Trends in Real Estate” report. This recognition positions the region as a hotspot for real estate growth, backed by its strong economy and steadily growing population.
With an 11.2% increase in jobs since 2020, Dallas-Fort Worth maintains one of the fastest growth rates among the nation’s major metropolitan areas. In addition, its ability to attract high-profile companies is reflected in the 23 Fortune 500 companies headquartered in the region.
In terms of yield, Dallas-Fort Worth has posted five- and ten-year yields of 7.9% and 8.8%, outperforming most real estate markets in the country and ensuring a favorable environment for investors.
Affordability and Competitiveness
Although home prices have risen 38% since 2020, reaching an average of $382,000, the area remains more affordable than other major markets. Moody’s Analytics reports that living and business costs in the region remain close to national averages, making it easier for new residents and businesses to come to the area.
Dallas-Fort Worth‘s success has not gone unnoticed. According to the report, the region has led similar rankings in previous years and continues to position itself as a benchmark for innovation and development. However, the report notes that an overheated market could create challenges in the near future, especially in housing supply and affordability.
Dallas-Fort Worth is Leading the National Landscape
Nationally, the real estate market is showing signs of gradual recovery, with Dallas-Fort Worth competing alongside other cities such as Miami, Houston, Tampa – St. Petersburg, Nashville, Orlando, Atlanta, Boston, Salt Lake City and Phoenix. However, its economic performance and ability to adapt to industry demands keep it as the undisputed leader for 2025.
