Latest Update: July 2025
Wylie’s median sales price dipped to $330,000, down 2.9% year-over-year. The price per square foot also fell to $162, suggesting downward pressure as listings increase. Homes are now spending a median of 57 days on the market, a 62.9% increase over last June, indicating a slower pace and more negotiation leverage for buyers.
The Wylie market now has 480 active listings, up 20.9% from last year. Months of inventory rose to 6.2, giving buyers more breathing room. However, pending and closed sales are down, and sellers are averaging just 93.0% of their original list price—signaling a clear shift in leverage toward the buyer.
While buyers have more options and time, motivated sellers with well-prepared homes can still stand out. With a slowing pace and rising inventory, strategic pricing and smart staging are critical in this environment.

Small-Town Charm with Big Growth in Eastern Rockwall County
Royse City is quickly becoming one of the most attractive destinations for homebuyers in East DFW, offering a rare mix of affordability, small-town atmosphere, and modern convenience. Located along the Interstate 30 corridor, just east of Rockwall, Royse City has grown from a quaint railroad town into a thriving residential hub that still honors its historic roots.
With portions of the city spanning Rockwall, Collin, and Hunt counties, Royse City is uniquely positioned for continued growth, drawing families, first-time buyers, and relocators looking to stretch their housing dollar while still enjoying access to Dallas, Greenville, and other regional job centers. The revitalized downtown district, complete with local eateries, boutiques, and community events, further adds to the city's charm and appeal.
Royse City’s real estate market is diverse, accessible, and family-friendly. Whether you’re in search of a quiet cul-de-sac, a new construction home with builder incentives, or a few acres for your hobby farm, you’ll find a wide range of options—often at a lower price point than nearby suburbs.
Common property types include:
Starter homes in well-established neighborhoods, many with mature trees and a cozy neighborhood feel
New construction in growing master-planned communities, featuring open-concept floorplans, energy-efficient designs, and builder warranties
Acreage properties that offer room for animals, outbuildings, gardens, or a peaceful rural escape
Move-up homes with larger lots, community amenities like pools and parks, and upgraded finishes ideal for growing families
Custom and semi-custom homes in boutique neighborhoods that prioritize design and walkability
Popular subdivisions such as Creekside, Waterscape, and Vista Oaks offer community trails, playgrounds, greenbelts, and easy access to schools—making them especially attractive to buyers looking for space and a strong sense of community.
Royse City has become a destination for those seeking more house, more land, and more connection—without sacrificing access to the amenities of the Metroplex. With a distinctly family-first culture, low crime, and Royse City ISD’s reputation for academic and extracurricular excellence, the city offers a sense of place and pace that’s hard to replicate.
