DFW homes are sitting. Prices softening. Buyers blamed.

But here's what the data actually shows.

Active listings went from 6,000 in 2021 to over 36,111 today. Roughly a 500% increase.

Sales? Down only 1.6% year over year.

It's not that buyers vanished. It's that listings flooded in faster than buyers could absorb them.

If you're buying in DFW, this is the first real window in 5 years.

✓ More inventory than 2019
✓ Seller concessions are back
✓ Time to inspect and decide
✓ Refi optionality if rates drift lower

Happy Monday! Here is your weekly mortgage market update. Last week inflation spiked to 3.3% year over year driven almost entirely by gas prices tied to the Strait of Hormuz situation. The good news? The bond market expected it, core inflation came in lighter than forecast, and mortgage bonds are above a key technical level this morning. I am recommending floating to start the week.

DFW weekend is actually stacked this weekend. Country music festival in McKinney for $7, Nate Smith at Billy Bob's Saturday night, and the Botanic Garden butterfly exhibit for the family. Weather's perfect. No excuses. Drop your plans in the comments 👇

Buying a house without an inspection is like eating gas station sushi. 🍣
Could be fine. Probably won't be. But you're definitely going to regret not checking first.
Get the inspection. Always. 🏠🔍

My son asked what PMI is.
I said it's like paying for a hall pass you didn't ask for. Private mortgage insurance protects the lender, not you. You're paying for their safety net because you put less than 20% down.
But here's the good news — once you hit 20% equity, it goes away.
Unlike my dad jokes. Those are permanent. 😂🏠

Closing day is like Christmas morning.
Except instead of presents you get a stack of papers to sign. And instead of eggnog there's water from a Keurig. ☕
But you DO get keys to a house so honestly it's better than Christmas. 🔑🏠
Don't tell my kids I said that. 😂

My kids think debt-to-income ratio is how much allowance they deserve compared to how many chores they do.
Honestly? That's not far off. 😂
If your monthly debts eat up more than 45% of your income, we need to talk. That includes car payments, credit cards, student loans — everything. It's one of the biggest reasons people get denied for a mortgage.
And kids — you're not getting a raise. 💰🏠

My wife asked me how much I think I'm worth.
I said depends — are we talking appraised value or what I'd actually sell for on the open market?
I slept on the couch that night. But she did learn what an appraisal gap is, so I'm calling it a win. 😂🛋️🏠

You know what a credit score and a dad joke have in common?
Everyone groans at first but if you pay attention, it pays off. 😂
Speaking of — stop closing credit cards you're not using. It's hurting your score. Your credit utilization ratio and average age of accounts both take a hit when you close old cards.
You're welcome. That one was free. 📈💳
