75104 Home Values

75104 covers Cedar Hill and parts of DeSoto, where the housing stock tells two distinct stories. The older core neighborhoods off Belt Line sit on generous lots with mature oaks and brick ranch homes from the 70s and 80s -- many now getting full kitchen-and-bath renovations. Head south toward Joe Pool Lake and you'll find the acreage estates: custom builds on half-acre to two-acre parcels in gated communities like Lake Ridge and The Timbers. Scattered throughout are early-2000s subdivisions like Waterford Oaks and High Pointe with traditional two-story floor plans.

This is a buyer's market right now, and sellers who haven't adjusted are sitting. Nearly six months of supply means homes are stacking up faster than they're moving, and more than half of closed deals involved seller concessions. Prices have softened slightly year-over-year, and the pace of sales reflects it. Builders adding inventory in communities like Addison Hills aren't helping resale sellers compete.

If you're listing in 75104 right now, price it right on day one -- there's no room for aspirational pricing in a market with this much inventory. Offer a concession upfront rather than waiting for buyers to ask. Homes that show well and are priced at or slightly below comparable sales are still moving; the ones sitting are the ones that ignored the shift.
