    5 magnificent Mediterranean retreats within Dallas city limits

    Among all of the beautiful properties in our great city, Mediterranean-style architecture never fails to capture our attention. Mediterranean homes, which populate many areas in Spain, France and Italy, are easily identified by their red tile roofs, arched windows and stucco exteriors.

    Dave Perry-Miller & Associates brings you five of Dallas’ most magnificent Mediterranean retreats.

    Classic Style
    The home at 3826 Maplewood Ave. in Highland Park is classic Mediterranean design-meets-custom build. Flowing spaces, abundant natural light and high-quality finishes make this property a must-see. The backyard standout is the private patio and staircase that leads directly to the pool.

    Historic Beauty
    The Mediterranean masterpiece at 3828 Turtle Creek Dr. is an exceptional historic home situated on 2.17 acres of perfectly manicured grounds. The home was built in the 1920s and completely restored to reflect all of today's modern luxuries, including spa-style master baths with radiant heated floors, saltwater pool, loggia and fitness room.

    Spacious and Sublime
    Nestled along a greenbelt, the exquisite Mediterranean property at 6322 Carrington Dr. is within the gated community of Williamsburg Estates. This spacious home features both a master and guest suite, media center, designer workroom and outdoor living area. The cabana, pool, lush gardens and backyard look like something straight out of a Hollywood movie.

    Character Driven
    Situated in Preston Hollow, 6433 Woodland Dr. is a study in the true essence of Mediterranean comfort and character. Interesting features such as hand-carved wood columns, a striking stone fireplace in the living area, and decorative custom stenciled wall treatments make this home stand out. Another plus is that the master suite is privately located on the first floor.

    Dazzling Details
    A custom build 5426 Purdue Ave. is a gorgeous two-story Mediterranean residence with Juliet balconies and luxurious finishes. The home features a gourmet kitchen, game room and outdoor covered patio with wood-burning fireplace.

    REAL ESTATE NEWS

    More Dallas homeowners are becoming 'accidental landlords,' study finds

    An increasing number of Houston homeowners are bcoming "accidental landlords"

    Dallas homeowners unable to sell their properties are increasingly becoming “accidental landlords,” according to Zillow. The real estate marketplace’s newest analysis says that 3.4 percent of its local for-sale listings recently converted to rentals, making Dallas the eighth-worst U.S. city for the market trend.

    In Texas, three cities rank higher than Dallas: Austin (4.1 percent), Houston (4.2 percent), and San Antonio (3.9 percent). Seven of the top 10 metros are in Texas or Florida. Denver (4.9 percent) ranks as the No. 1 city for the trend.

    Zillow senior economist Kara Ng says today's dynamic is driven by choice rather than panic. Homeowners aren't being forced to sell; they're simply unwilling to accept what the market will actually pay.

    "As the market continues to rebalance, sellers are facing a different reality than they did a few years ago," Ng said in a statement. "Bargaining power is tilting toward buyers, and homes are taking longer to sell, making renting out a property one way to buy time rather than compete aggressively on price. After all, today's sellers are rarely forced to sell, and it appears they are often unwilling to budge off of what their heart says their home is worth."

    Nationally, the trend is nearing a record high. 2.3 percent of all Zillow rental listings were recently for-sale properties, second only to November 2022, when mortgage rates had doubled in a single year, and sellers were scrambling. That spike was shock-driven, but now stubbornness is likely fueling the shift.

    Single-family homes make up the largest share of accidental landlord properties, but condos are seeing the fastest rise. Metros with the hottest buyer competition, including Boston, New York City, and Providence, Rhode Island, have the lowest accidental landlord rates.

    For both local buyers and sellers, Goldilocks thinking is increasingly the norm. Sellers, especially those who bought during the COVID-19 boom, are holding their asking price firm to avoid taking a loss. Buyers, for their part, are refusing to compromise on concessions and repairs.

    The 10 U.S. Metros with the highest share of accidental landlords are:

    1. Denver: 4.9%
    2. Houston: 4.2%
    3. Austin: 4.1%
    4. San Antonio: 3.9%
    5. Portland: 3.7%
    6. Tampa: 3.7%
    7. Miami: 3.5%
    8. Dallas: 3.4%
    9. Jacksonville: 3.3%
    10. Nashville: 3.2%
