U.S. real estate agents agree that North Texas will be the nation’s top market for investment in 2025.
As Allie Beth Allman & Associates reported in its weekly Allmanac, PricewaterhouseCoopers and the Urban Land Institute queried more than 2,000 real estate experts nationally for its annual Emerging Trends in Real Estate forecast. The Dallas-Fort Worth region ranked third nationally this year and has been in the Top 10 for the past six years.
But next year D-FW is projected to be No. 1 for real estate investment because of its stability, affordability, continued population and job growth and economic diversity, according to the forecast.
The Urban Institute reports that over the next 20 years, Hispanic buyers will make up about 70% of U.S. real estate purchases. It was only two years ago that national Hispanic homeownership hit 51%.
In the Dallas area, the National Association of Realtors says that the Hispanic homeownership rate is nearly 20%, larger than any other non-Anglo ethnic groups.
Hispanic homeownership is expected to climb because nearly 45% of Hispanics who bought a mortgage in 2023 were 35 years old or younger.
With its GDP of $2.8 trillion, Texas ranks eighth among the world’s economies and shows no signs of slowing. At the same time, the region’s real estate has remained more affordable than other large metro areas.
