Wilmer Home Values

Dallas County's median sale price held near $371,000 this quarter, more than $120,000 above Wilmer's own $243,000 median, a gap that has persisted through the trailing year, based on MLS data for September 2026 closings in Wilmer. Price per square foot in Wilmer eased only slightly to about $173, still roughly $28 below the county's $201 figure. Despite that pricing gap, sellers here are extracting nearly full value at the table — buyers gave back well under a penny on the dollar, tighter than the roughly three cents shaved off county-wide. More than four in five Wilmer closings still carried some concession, nearly double the county's rate, even as the average payout eased to roughly $2,900.

Wilmer's pipeline reflects a tighter market than the county benchmark suggests: months of supply fell to roughly four, in seller-favoring territory, while Dallas County as a whole holds near seven months, solidly favoring buyers. Just two contracts moved to pending against Wilmer's 39 active listings this quarter, down sharply from four last month, even as new listings held near three dozen. The divergence between Wilmer's compressed supply reading and the county's looser conditions suggests sellers here are operating in a considerably different environment than the broader county market right now.

Slowing markedly from the volume gains reported last month, closings in Wilmer eased to 18 transactions this quarter, based on MLS data for August 2026 closings in Wilmer. Median days to closing stretched to roughly six weeks, up from about a month in July — the longest stretch recorded in this timeline. Price per square foot held steady near $171, just above the trailing annual median, while the typical sale price edged up to roughly $249,000. Sellers continued fielding concessions on about two in three deals, and the average payout climbed further to nearly $3,300, extending a pattern that began building over the summer.

Pipeline signals in Wilmer point to a market cooling further into fall. Just four contracts moved to pending status against 43 active listings this quarter, barely improved from July's thin count and still well short of replenishing the active pool. New listing activity picked up to 33 properties this quarter, outpacing pending formation for a second straight month and pushing months of supply to about seven, above the Dallas County benchmark of roughly six and a half. The widening gap between new supply and contract formation aligns with the slower pace showing up in closed-sale timing.

Closings in Wilmer picked up pace this quarter — 24 transactions closed, up from roughly 18 over the prior three-month stretch, based on MLS data for July 2026 closings in Wilmer. Price per square foot held near $173, a modest gain over the trailing annual median of about $169, while median sale price stayed close to $246,000. Median time to close ticked up slightly to roughly a month. The concession pullback described in recent months interrupted itself: the average concession climbed back to roughly $3,150 after dipping toward $2,200 last quarter, even as the share of sales carrying any concession slipped to about seven in ten. With volume still in the low twenties, the reading remains directional rather than definitive.

With just three homes moving to pending status against 42 active listings this quarter, contract-formation pace in Wilmer slowed measurably — a sharper drop than the roughly dozen-a-quarter clip implied by the trailing annual average. New listings, by contrast, held close to trend at 27, keeping the supply side steady even as demand-side signals softened. Months of supply eased to about five and a third, down from near six and a half over the trailing year — a modest tightening that sits at odds with the widening gap between new listings and pending contracts.
