By Tom Branch, on December 27th, 2011 As 2011 gives way to 2012, it’s time to take a look at the housing market in Plano, Texas, ZIP Code 75025.
75025 is the north, central part of the city of Plano. It looks like a large letter L with State Highway 121 on the north, Coit Road on the west, Legacy on south. The south leg runs all the way to US 75, then north to Hedgcoxe, West to Custer, and north to meet with State Highway 121 again.
2011 appears to have been a very stable year for the area. Let’s look at three charts: median sales price, average days on market, and new listings. You can click on any of the graphs for larger views.
Median Sales Price
The graphs are broken out into four price ranges. It’s been a flat year in the market for the lower three price ranges. Homes above $290k saw a 10.3 percent decrease in value. Overall home prices are down about 4.1 percent from this time in 2010.
Average Days On Market
This chart really helps you to understand why the median sales price was down for home above $290k. The average days on market for these homes spiked to almost 330 days in the spring of 2011. The good news is the market was finally able to absorb the inventory and the days on market settled back down.
New Listings
The decrease in new listings has been one of the primary reasons the housing market in 75025 has remained relatively stable. While demand is down, the supply of new listings is down as well. The lack of an over-supply of housing has been a good thing for homeowners.

Over the past 10 years or so we’ve seen townhomes make a comeback in the greater North Dallas area. Currently there are a number of new townhome communities being developed. Townhomes make a good choice for those buyers wanting a low-maintenance lifestyle. Typically, the HOA takes care of all exterior maintenance and lawn care. Townhomes are usually multi-story although we’re seeing at least one builder who builds a single-level townhomes.

I was out staffing the on-site sales office at The Enclaves at Willow Crest this weekend. Wendy Leigh, the super on-site sales consultant, was enjoying a few well-deserved days off.
These new-construction townhomes are selling quickly. As I looked at the board, I saw that there is only one completed townhome available and half of the units in the next building are already sold.
The good news is the builder is pouring the foundation for the latest building this month.
If location is your main concern, look no further than The Enclaves at Willow Crest, conveniently located just east of the Dallas North Tollway and south of 121. The world is at your fingertips. Endless shopping opportunities, professional sports venues, fine dining, nearby golf courses and more!
With the end of year approaching this is a good time to shop for new construction homes. Builders are trying to wrap up their year and get the remaining inventory under contract.

Looking for townhomes in Plano? You’re in luck! Over the past few years we’ve seen a number of townhome communities pop up in Plano. Many of them are located close to work, shopping, or transportation hubs.
Townhomes offer ownership with low maintenance. In most townhome communities, the HOA takes care of the yards, exterior maintenance, and even insures the building with a blanket insurance policy.
