The one that matters most
For sellers

Pricing right in McKinney.

What happened to homes that sold for their first asking price, and to homes that did not.

Every home was first listed at some price. In McKinney, 17.3% of homes sold for that first number or better. The other 82.7% sold for less than they first asked. On a $490,000 home, here is how those two endings differ.

Sold at or above the price it was first listed at
$490,000
sold in about 7 days · 17.3% of sales
Sold below the price it was first listed at
$459,571
sold in about 49 days · 82.7% of sales
$30,429
less in the seller's pocket, after 42 more days on the market. That is the gap between the two groups above, on a $490,000 home in McKinney.

Read it as a pattern, not a promise. Some homes sell under their first price for reasons no strategy would fix: condition, a hard location, a seller who had to move fast. But the split looks like this in every city in this report, and the first number is the one thing a seller gets to choose. Based on 3,551 sales in McKinney over the window.

Straight answers

McKinney, in plain questions.

What does the median home in McKinney cost?
Across 3,551 sales in the last twelve months (Aug 2025 – Jul 2026), the median sale price in McKinney was $490,000. That is about $205 per square foot.
What is the average home price in McKinney, and how is it different from the median?
Both are on this page. The median sale price in McKinney is $490,000 — half of homes sold for less, half for more — and the average (mean) is $539,983. The average runs 10% above the median. A mean is pulled by the top of the market and a median is not, so the gap is a direct read on how heavy the high end is. Use the median to picture a typical home and the average to gauge how much money is moving. Every price figure in this report can be switched between the two.
Is McKinney a buyer's or a seller's market?
McKinney currently leans toward sellers, with about 3.9 months of housing supply. Fewer homes for sale than buyers to absorb them — sellers hold the edge on price and terms.

Nail & Key Real Estate Group

Closed residential sales (single-family, condo, and townhome — leases excluded) in 12 North Texas counties: Collin, Dallas, Denton, Ellis, Grayson, Hunt, Johnson, Kaufman, Parker, Rockwall, Tarrant, Wise. Statistics cover Aug 2025 – Jul 2026, complete months only. Medians are computed per city; cities with fewer than 24 sales in the trailing twelve months are not shown individually but still count in the regional totals. Monthly payment figures are estimates (30-year fixed, 10% down, principal and interest only) and not a loan offer.

Based on information from the North Texas Real Estate Information Systems, Inc. (NTREIS) for the period Aug 2025 through Jul 2026. Aggregate statistics only — Texas is a non-disclosure state, and neither individual sale prices nor any single property's details are published here. Data is deemed reliable but is not guaranteed accurate by the MLS or NTREIS. Figures update nightly (last updated August 13, 2026).
