Allen Home Sales Up 25% in December to 91; Median $510K

Allen recorded 91 closed home sales in December 2025, about a 25% increase from 73 transactions in December 2024, with a median sale price near $510,000 and an average 76 days on market. The monthly snapshot offers a concise measure of local market momentum as buyers and sellers plan for the spring season.

The sales gain compares December-to-December and reflects more closings in the final month of 2025 rather than an across-the-board surge in listings. Breakdowns by price band and ZIP code show where activity concentrated across the city, offering granular signals for neighborhoods that saw the most turnover. The median price of $510,000 captures the middle of the market and is a useful benchmark for affordability conversations in Allen and broader Collin County.

Seventy-six days on market is roughly two and a half months from listing to sale, a pace that sits between the rapid turnover of a hot market and the drawn-out timelines seen in slower cycles. For buyers, the pace suggests that competition exists but is not extreme; for sellers, it indicates reasonable liquidity without the urgency of multiple-offer bidding wars. Agents and price-conscious homeowners will watch whether this tempo holds into the traditional spring selling season.

Local fiscal and planning implications follow from these figures. A median sale price north of $500,000 influences assessed values and property tax revenue streams for Allen and Collin County, and shifts in sales volume can affect the timing of tax collections and municipal budget projections. Lenders, appraisers, and local policymakers use monthly trends like this to calibrate expectations for assessment rolls and housing supply forecasts.

While a single-month snapshot cannot confirm a long-term trend, the 25% year-over-year increase is a meaningful data point. If December’s higher sales volume persists in early 2026, Allen could see a modest rebound in transaction activity compared with 2024 levels. Conversely, a drop-off in early listings or changes in buyer financing conditions could reverse the uptick.

For families and investors watching the Allen market, the immediate takeaway is clarity on price and pace: expect median values around $510,000 and plan for listings to take about 76 days on market. Local sellers should discuss pricing strategy with their Realtor to align with neighborhood-level demand shown in ZIP code and price-band breakdowns, and buyers should monitor new inventory as the spring market approaches.
