The gist

The county saw a median sales price of $539,580 compared to $569,500 in June 2022, according to a Collin County Association of Realtors news release. Despite the price drop, the county’s months supply of homes for sale indicates a strong seller’s market.

Collin County also saw a 22.7% decrease in new listings, while houses took 19 days longer on average to sell compared to 2022.
