    This is how much more money you'll need for a down payment in Dallas in 2018

    Dallas isn't the only place where home prices are on the rise. Nationally, the median home price will rise $6,275 next year, according to a new study from Zillow. In turn, prospective homebuyers will need to save a good chunk of change more to reach their goal of a 20 percent down payment.

    Zillow says that nationally, homebuyers will need to save an additional $105 a month — $1,260 over the next year — to account for how much a 20 percent down payment will cost in 2018. The figure is higher in a couple hot Texas markets.

    The highest increase in Texas is found in Dallas-Fort Worth, where the median home value will reach $224,675 in September 2018, an increase of 4.6 percent year over year. DFW homebuyers will have to save an additional $165 a month to keep up with rising prices and afford a down payment of $44,935.

    In the Austin metro area, the median home value is projected to be $283,871 by September 2018, a 3.3 percent increase. That means Austin-area buyers need to sock away $153 more a month for a down payment of $56,774.

    Things are more manageable elsewhere in the Lone Star State. San Antonians only need to save an extra $74 a month for a down payment of $31,403 on a $170,515 home. That price is up 2.7 percent year over year. Houston is in the same range, with a home value increase of 2.8 percent, to $187,259. Residents will need to save an additional $84 a month for a down payment of $37,452.

    The highest per-month increase is found in San Jose, California, where future homebuyers need to save $599 more a month towards a whopping $217,687 down payment.

    Post Malone's childhood home, at 1226 Eaton Ln., Grapevine, is listed for $549,900.

    The grapevine is buzzing with news that entertainer Post Malone’s childhood home in Grapevine is up for sale. The modest three-bedroom, two-bathroom home, at 1226 Eaton Ln., is listed for $549,900.

    “This home blends modern comfort, prime location, and a one-of-a-kind story — an exceptional opportunity in one of North Texas’ most desirable communities,” says the listing from Liz Ervin and David Ervin, both of Meyer Group Real Estate.

    Post Malone's childhood home, at 1226 Eaton Ln., Grapevine, is listed for $549,900.

    Want to tour Malone’s former digs? The Ervins are hosting an open house from 12 noon-2 pm Saturday, February 7.

    Built in 1987 — eight years before Malone was born — the “thoughtfully renovated” 1,685-square-foot, brick-façade home with a bright red front door offers an open-concept floor plan that features “excellent flow, abundant natural light, and a great use of space throughout,” the listing says.

    Recent upgrades include:

    • An updated primary bathroom.
    • New triple-pane, energy-efficient windows.
    • A new air-conditioning unit.
    • A new water heater.

    The listing also touts the home’s outdoor amenities and proximity to downtown Grapevine.

    “Step outside to a private backyard oasis featuring a sparkling pool and upgraded decking — perfect for entertaining or relaxing Texas-style,” the listing says. “Ideally located less than a one-mile walk to Grapevine’s sought-after Main Street, offering endless dining, shopping, and access to the nearby recreation center.”

    Malone, whose given name is Austin Richard Post, is a rapper, singer, songwriter, and record producer who’s easily recognizable thanks to his more than 70 tattoos, including 14 on his face.

    The entertainer moved to Grapevine at age nine with his father, Rich Post, and stepmother, Jodie, after the Dallas Cowboys hired his dad as assistant director of food and beverage, according to Malone’s bio on IMDb. Malone was born in 1995 in Syracuse, New York.

    In Grapevine, Malone learned to play guitar at age 12. He frequently plays gigs around Dallas-Fort Worth; he was the big act at the 2025 Dallas Cattle Baron's Ball at Southfork Ranch, and then he played the Cowboys' halftime show at AT&T Stadium on Thanksgiving.

    When Malone was a senior, classmates at Grapevine High School named him “Most Likely to Be Famous,” according to IMDb and CBS News. For a 2012 class project at Grapevine High, he created a viral music video for one of his first songs, “Why Don’t You Love Me?” In the video, he rocked an ’80s vibe, complete with an animal-print head scarf and cut-off denim shorts.

    After graduating from high school in 2013, Malone enrolled at Tarrant County College but dropped out and moved to Los Angeles, where he formally launched his music career. Just two years after graduation, Malone signed a recording deal with Republic Records.

    By all accounts, Malone appreciated growing up in Grapevine. In fact, his 2024 country song “Back to Texas” pays homage to the Lone Star State:

    Ain’t found nowhere like Dallas yeah

    And I doubt I ever will it’s

    All hat, no cattle

    All belt, no buckle

    All snake, no rattle

    All honey, no suckle

    And I’ma take every last dime

    Stuffed under this mattress

    And make a Lone Star beeline

    Take my a** back to Texas
