Fort Worth Home Values

Fort Worth's price per square foot held at $179 in the trailing three months, roughly $7 below Tarrant County's $186 median -- a gap that has persisted since spring. Based on MLS data for August 2026 closings in Fort Worth, the median sale price landed near $345,000, essentially flat against a year ago. Homes here continue taking longer to reach contract than the county overall: a median 31 days, five days behind Tarrant County's 26-day pace, even as Fort Worth's own timeline held steady for a second straight month rather than continuing to shorten. Sellers received roughly 98 cents on the dollar at close, and just over three in five transactions carried a concession, averaging close to $8,000.

Fort Worth's months of supply eased slightly to 5.3, still running a touch above Tarrant County's 5.0 reading and reinforcing the modest buyer-favoring tilt that distinguishes the city from the broader county pipeline. Pending contracts continued their multi-month slide, falling to under 400 as new listing activity also pulled back from the prior period's pace. With active inventory holding near 5,900, the combination points toward a pipeline contracting on both sides -- fewer new listings arriving, fewer contracts forming -- rather than one side outpacing the other.

For a third straight month, closings in Fort Worth moved faster, with the median days from list to contract dropping to 31 — down from 34 in June and 41 back in the spring. Based on MLS data for July 2026 closings in Fort Worth, price per square foot ticked up to roughly $179, with the median sale price near $345,000. Sellers received about 98 cents on the dollar at closing, continuing a gradual climb from earlier in the year. Concession activity eased slightly, with just over three in five transactions still including a seller give-back, averaging roughly $7,800. Year-over-year prices remain essentially flat, and nearly 3,300 homes changed hands in the quarter.

Pending contracts in Fort Worth fell sharply this period, down to fewer than 800 after climbing past 1,700 in June, even as more than 5,100 new listings continued entering the market and active inventory edged up to nearly 5,800. Months of supply held at roughly five months, keeping conditions on the balanced side of the buyer-favoring threshold. The pullback in pending activity, arriving just as closed-sale timelines have been shortening, suggests the recent acceleration in absorption may be losing steam heading into late summer.

Fort Worth's price per square foot came in at roughly $178 on trailing three-month closings — essentially flat with the broader annual average — while the median sale price settled near $342,000. Based on MLS data for June 2026 closings in Fort Worth, sellers gave back about two and a half cents on the dollar at close, a slight improvement from the prior period's pace. Nearly two-thirds of closed transactions included seller concessions, with the average concession running just under $8,000. Homes that closed took a median of 34 days from list to contract, roughly four days faster than the trailing twelve-month pace, and year-over-year values remain fractionally negative.

Fort Worth's months of supply pulled back to roughly 5.3 from a six-month reading in the prior period, a shift that moves conditions away from the buyer-favoring threshold. Pending contracts climbed to more than 1,700 — a meaningful increase from prior readings — even as active listings held near 5,700 and more than 5,200 new listings entered the market. The acceleration in pending volume, combined with the days-on-market trend moving four days faster in recent closings, points toward a modest uptick in absorption that, if sustained, would continue compressing available supply.
