    luxury real estate

    A new luxury real estate report reveals Texas broke a record for the highest number of million-dollar homes sold from November 2024 to October 2025, and Dallas-Fort Worth boasted the largest share of million-dollar home sales statewide.

    A total of 14,418 Texas homes were sold for at least $1 million last year, generating a record-breaking $24.5 billion, according to Texas Realtors' 2025 Texas Sales of Million-Dollar Homes Report. The number of luxury home sales in the state soared 12 percent compared to the previous year.

    Million-dollar home sales in Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington made up 38 percent of all luxury home sale transactions in Texas during the 12-month period, the report found. The total sales dollar volume of DFW homes that sold for $1 million or more added up to about $9.7 billion.

    Nearly 5,500 million-dollar homes were sold in the North Texas Metroplex at an average price of $402 per square foot. For comparison, the average price per square foot for all residential homes in Dallas-Fort Worth was $204.

    Both figures are not far from the statewide average, according to Texas Realtors.

    "The average price per square foot of $1 million+ homes increased to $423 from $418 last year and was more than double the $188 average price per square foot of all Texas homes," the report said.

    Dallas-Fort Worth luxury homes are also more than twice the size of the typical residential home in the region. A million-dollar home in DFW spanned 4,284 square feet, compared to 2,096 median square feet for all residential homes in the metro.

    "High-end homes continue to be a small but mighty segment of the market," said Texas Realtors chairman Jennifer Wauhob in a press release. "Texans remain confident in the value of these properties, whether they are drawn to outstanding amenities, prime locations, or both."

    Elsewhere in Texas, Houston-Pasadena-The Woodlands saw the second-highest share of million-dollar home sales in Texas, at 27 percent, followed by Austin-Round Rock-San Marcos (19 percent), the rest of Texas (11 percent), and San Antonio-New Braunfels (5 percent).

    on the move

    Dallas leads U.S. as the No. 1 metro for movers in 2025, U-Haul says

    Dallas-Fort Worth attracted more newcomers than any other U.S. metro in 2025.

    Dallas attracted more newcomers than any other U.S. metro in 2025, according to a new migration report from U-Haul.

    Dallas-Fort Worth topped U-Haul's annual list of the top destinations for people on the move for the second consecutive year.

    U-Haul's annual Top U.S. Growth Metros and Cities report is based on how many one-way transactions were made by do-it-yourself movers using a U-Haul truck, trailer, or U-Box moving container across the U.S. and Canada. According to the study's methodology, more than 2.5 million one-way moves took place in North America in 2025.

    DFW first topped the charts in the 2024 migration report, after ranking as the 9th most-moved-to destination in 2023.

    Additionally, Texas reclaimed the No. 1 spot as U-Haul's Top Growth State in 2025, which was held by South Carolina in 2024.

    "U-Haul customers arriving in Texas accounted for 50.7 percent of all one-way traffic in and out of the state last year (49.3 percent leaving)," the report said. "Compared to 2024, customers coming to Texas rose 3 percent [year-over-year] while departures rose just 1 percent [year-over-year]."

    Houston and Austin, respectively, round out the top three growth metros for 2025. In 2024, Austin ranked No. 5 and Houston ranked in 9th place.

    One North Dallas suburb attracted more movers in 2025 than many other U.S. cities: McKinney made its debut in U-Haul's analysis of the top growth cities (separate from metros), landing in the No. 6 spot nationwide.

    "We continue to find that life circumstances — marriage, children, a death in the family, college, jobs and other events — dictate the need for most moves," said U-Haul International president John "J.T." Taylor. "But other factors can be important to people who are looking to change their surroundings. In-migration states are often appealing to those customers."

    The top 10 growth metros in 2025 are:

    • No. 1 – Dallas-Fort Worth, Texas
    • No. 2 – Houston, Texas
    • No. 3 – Austin, Texas
    • No. 4 – Charlotte, North Carolina
    • No. 5 – Phoenix, Arizona
    • No. 6 – Nashville, Tennessee
    • No. 7 – Charleston, South Carolina
    • No. 8 – Raleigh, North Carolina
    • No. 9 – Atlanta, Georgia
    • No. 10 – Brownsville & McAllen, Texas
