Fort Worth Luxury Home Market Report: Trends & Price Points

This page tracks the Fort Worth luxury market’s actual numbers: citywide pricing, days on market, and how our upper-luxury tier compares to Dallas’s biggest submarkets. If you want the full picture first, including the three luxury price tiers, the neighborhoods, and what buyers actually ask for, start with our Fort Worth Luxury & Investment Real Estate guide. This page is just the data, and we update it as new numbers come in.

What the numbers say right now (updated September 2026)

I get asked constantly whether now’s a good time to buy or sell, and the honest answer starts with the citywide numbers, then gets more specific from there. Steadily’s Fort Worth data has the citywide median sale price at $376,100, down 2.1% year over year, with homes averaging 55 days on market and 2.4 to 2.69 months of supply. Listings are actually up 14.4% month over month to 3,649 active properties. That’s more room to breathe than the market had two years ago, but under four months of supply still favors sellers, and it doesn’t tell you anything about what’s happening in Westover Hills or Mira Vista specifically.

Here’s the citywide snapshot, for what it’s worth (again: citywide, not luxury-tier specific):

Market indicator Citywide Fort Worth
Median sale price $376,100
Year-over-year change -2.1%
Average days on market 55
Months of supply 2.4-2.69
Active listings 3,649 (+14.4% MoM)

Where it gets interesting is putting Fort Worth’s upper tier next to what Dallas’s luxury submarkets are actually doing. Briggs Freeman Sotheby’s Q2 2026 report put Highland Park at a $2.69M median, Preston Hollow at $2.5M, University Park above $2.1M, and Southlake/Westlake averaging $1.7M. Westover Hills, Rivercrest, and Tanglewood are running $1.5M and up, which puts Fort Worth’s upper-luxury tier right around where Southlake sits, not trailing the conversation the way most Dallas-first luxury roundups make it look.

DFW luxury submarket Approximate median price (Q2 2026)
Highland Park $2.69M
Preston Hollow $2.5M
University Park $2.1M+
Southlake / Westlake $1.7M average
Fort Worth (Westover Hills / Rivercrest / Tanglewood) $1.5M+

That same report found more than 120 companies have relocated into North Texas over the past five years, and DFW logged 5,485 million-dollar-plus home sales in 2025 for $9.7 billion in volume, with cash buyers making up over 30% of transactions in the tightest luxury submarkets. Those figures are DFW-wide, not Fort Worth-specific, and I’d rather tell you that than let you assume they’re a Fort Worth number. What we can tell you from our team’s transaction data: new luxury construction in Fort Worth’s core neighborhoods hasn’t kept pace with demand, which is the same scarcity dynamic driving the bigger DFW numbers, just playing out on a smaller, more local scale.

I’ll update these numbers periodically rather than letting this section go stale, so treat the date in the heading above as the freshness marker.

Questions about the market data

Is Fort Worth’s luxury market currently a buyer’s or seller’s market?

By the numbers, it still leans toward sellers. Under four months of supply is the usual line, and Fort Worth is sitting at 2.4 to 2.69. Listings are up double digits month over month, though, so it’s a little less lopsided than it was two years ago.

How does Fort Worth’s luxury pricing compare to Dallas?

Closer than most Dallas-first roundups make it look. Fort Worth’s upper tier, Westover Hills, Rivercrest, Tanglewood, runs $1.5M and up, which lands right around where Southlake and Westlake average. It’s not Highland Park or Preston Hollow money, but it’s not trailing the conversation either.
