Secret Weapon for Buying Your First Home 2025

First-time homebuyer: Are you ready to dive into the housing market?

It’s an exciting time to buy, but it can feel like a maze. That’s where a North Point Realtor® comes in. They’re your secret weapon for buying your first home, acting as your guide to make this journey smooth and fun.

The northeast Dallas Metroplex market is unique. Collin County alone has 17 cities, a population of over 1 million, and new developments popping up everywhere. That’s a lot to navigate.

Places like Plano, Frisco, Allen, and McKinney are buzzing with opportunity in 2025, with over 5,800 homes on the market—up from last year—and prices dipping slightly to a median of $499,000.

The market’s cooling a bit.

Homes are taking longer to sell, and 30% of listings have price reductions. But with over 3,000 new homes listed in April, plus foreclosure properties and new construction homes, it’s easy to get overwhelmed.

A local realtor knows the ins and outs, from McKinney’s family-friendly vibe to Lavon’s affordable gems starting in the mid-$200,000s. Your North Point Buyer’s Agent will steer you clear of pitfalls and point you to the best neighborhoods for your budget and lifestyle.

Time and money are precious, especially for first-timers. 

A Realtor® your secret weapon to save you both. 

Your agent can sift through thousands of listings to find homes that match your wish list, like those with recent price drops or new builds that are $35,000 cheaper than resale homes.

They’re also negotiation pros, helping you snag a deal in a buyer-friendly market. Plus, they connect you with trusted lenders to tackle today’s 6.5%–7% mortgage rates, ensuring you get the best financing options without the headache.

As a first-time buyer, you might feel nervous about contracts, inspections, or even understanding what “escrow” means.
