More than 60% of Fort Worth\u2019s closed sales were in the $200,000 to $400,000 range and its median price stands at $330,125, down 2.6% from August 2024.\u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cWe are pleased to see the region shift to a more balanced market,\u201d said Paul Epperley, president of the association and a Realtor at Hallowed Homes. \u201cHaving more inventory allows families to upgrade their homes and leaves room for first-time homebuyers to enter the market with a bit more negotiating power.\u201d<\/p>\n Parker County is experiencing a more balanced market with 5.9 months of inventory. It is also the highest-priced county in the region, with the median home price at $470,000.
