The McKinney Real Estate Market
What is the housing market like in Plano today?
In March 2026, McKinney home prices were down 1.5% year over year, with a median sale price of $485,000. Homes are selling in approximately 54 days, compared to 45 days a year prior. Sales activity has accelerated in parallel, with 248 closings in March, a 25.3% increase from 198 the previous year.
The current market presents distinct opportunities depending on your position:
- Buyers benefit from improved negotiating leverage as price growth has moderated, while the rise in transaction volume signals sustained demand and confidence in the McKinney market.
- Sellers must price strategically from day one. Listings positioned above market are sitting longer, and extended time on market often triggers further reductions.
- Increased buyer activity, paired with longer days on market, creates a balanced environment in which well-prepared properties continue to perform while overpriced inventory underperforms.
Why Buyers Choose McKinney
McKinney offers a combination of attributes that few DFW suburbs match in equal measure:
- A genuine downtown. McKinney's historic square is one of the most walkable, characterful urban cores in the metroplex, anchored by independent restaurants, boutiques, and the Collin County courthouse.
- Strong schools. McKinney ISD, along with portions of Frisco ISD and Prosper ISD, serves the city, with all three districts well-regarded.
- Greater value. Buyers consistently find more square footage and larger lots in McKinney for the same investment as comparable properties in Frisco or Plano.
- Measured growth. McKinney has more than doubled in population since 2010 while preserving the architectural and community character that defines its older neighborhoods.
Buyers should also factor in longer commute times to Dallas and Fort Worth and Collin County's elevated property tax rates. Our advisors will walk through the full financial picture so every client makes an informed decision.
