Lubbock and Dallas lead the way in Texas as home prices decline

DALLAS (KDAF) — While national home prices are plateauing in many markets, Texas is emerging as a key state to watch, with several metros seeing sharper-than-average price drops.

According to new data from ConsumerAffairs, which analyzed year-over-year median sale prices across 180 U.S. metros, Texas cities are showing early signs of a market cooldown.

While major cities like Houston, San Antonio, and Austin are still posting modest year-over-year gains, their slowing growth may signal broader softening across Texas — particularly in areas like Lubbock and Dallas, where prices are already declining.
