It also says North Texas areas that saw substantial pandemic-era buying from H-1B visa holders are facing an added drag after changes to those buyers&#8217; access to government-backed mortgages.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"text text-block paragraph text-left neo-font-paragraph-xl-reg  yf-18d6y07\" style=\"text-decoration: none; font-style: normal; text-transform: none; text-align: inherit; font-variant-numeric: normal;\">At the same time, the area&#8217;s fundamentals still look solid. Reventure points to median household income above $180,000, schools rated 9 out of 10, and homes north of Dallas selling near pre-pandemic values at under $150 per square foot.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"text text-block paragraph text-left neo-font-paragraph-xl-reg  yf-18d6y07\" style=\"text-decoration: none; font-style: normal; text-transform: none; text-align: inherit; font-variant-numeric: normal;\">One commenter in ZIP code 75033 wrote, &#8220;When the housing market started to go crazy, we were in shock,&#8221; adding that &#8220;the inflated prices were never worth that.&#8221;  <\/p>\n<p>        More background          <\/p>\n<p class=\"text text-block paragraph text-left neo-font-paragraph-xl-reg  yf-18d6y07\" style=\"text-decoration: none; font-style: normal; text-transform: none; text-align: inherit; font-variant-numeric: normal;\">Reventure also sets the current decline beside the 2008 housing crash. For one Frisco ZIP code, the firm said prices slipped about 2% in that earlier downturn, versus roughly 10% so far in the present one.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"text text-block paragraph text-left neo-font-paragraph-xl-reg  yf-18d6y07\" style=\"text-decoration: none; font-style: normal; text-transform: none; text-align: inherit; font-variant-numeric: normal;\">That runs against Frisco&#8217;s long-standing image as a market where values were expected to hold up better than most.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"text text-block paragraph text-left neo-font-paragraph-xl-reg  yf-18d6y07\" style=\"text-decoration: none; font-style: normal; text-transform: none; text-align: inherit; font-variant-numeric: normal;\">The narrator said he lived in Frisco in 2022, when residents told him prices would stay protected because the suburb was affluent and continued attracting new people. His point is that current housing data no longer supports that assumption.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"text text-block paragraph text-left neo-font-paragraph-xl-reg  yf-18d6y07\" style=\"text-decoration: none; font-style: normal; text-transform: none; text-align: inherit; font-variant-numeric: normal;\">To make that case, Reventure Consulting pointed to Zillow, Redfin, builder figures, and local market data showing a broader shift across Texas. Frisco is a leading example in the video, but the discussion also covered Dallas, Austin, and other Texas markets with heavy supply.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"text text-block paragraph text-left neo-font-paragraph-xl-reg  yf-18d6y07\" style=\"text-decoration: none; font-style: normal; text-transform: none; text-align: inherit; font-variant-numeric: normal;\">Lower prices can improve affordability, but they also mean some recent buyers may be watching values fall below what they paid.  <\/p>\n<p>        What can be done?          <\/p>\n<p class=\"text text-block paragraph text-left neo-font-paragraph-xl-reg  yf-18d6y07\" style=\"text-decoration: none; font-style: normal; text-transform: none; text-align: inherit; font-variant-numeric: normal;\">A major reason prices may keep easing is how much housing is coming onto the market.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"text text-block paragraph text-left neo-font-paragraph-xl-reg  yf-18d6y07\" style=\"text-decoration: none; font-style: normal; text-transform: none; text-align: inherit; font-variant-numeric: normal;\">The video says builders in Texas are continuing to add homes even as buyer demand fades, which it argues could keep prices under pressure into 2027.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"text text-block paragraph text-left neo-font-paragraph-xl-reg  yf-18d6y07\" style=\"text-decoration: none; font-style: normal; text-transform: none; text-align: inherit; font-variant-numeric: normal;\">That could create opportunities in places that looked out of reach during the pandemic run-up.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"text text-block paragraph text-left neo-font-paragraph-xl-reg  yf-18d6y07\" style=\"text-decoration: none; font-style: normal; text-transform: none; text-align: inherit; font-variant-numeric: normal;\">Reventure says buyers can already find properties in Frisco and North Dallas near pre-pandemic price levels and below $150 per square foot, a useful benchmark against the run-up during the pandemic housing boom.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"text text-block paragraph text-left neo-font-paragraph-xl-reg  yf-18d6y07\" style=\"text-decoration: none; font-style: normal; text-transform: none; text-align: inherit; font-variant-numeric: normal;\">Areas that depended heavily on H-1B-driven demand could see that adjustment move faster if mortgage-access changes keep reducing that buyer pool.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"text text-block paragraph text-left neo-font-paragraph-xl-reg  yf-18d6y07\" style=\"text-decoration: none; font-style: normal; text-transform: none; text-align: inherit; font-variant-numeric: normal;\">If homes are already selling at discounts as large as 26% from 2024 prices, waiting for pandemic-style bidding wars may no longer be realistic in some corners of the market.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"text text-block paragraph text-left neo-font-paragraph-xl-reg  yf-18d6y07\" style=\"text-decoration: none; font-style: normal; text-transform: none; text-align: inherit; font-variant-numeric: normal;\">In the Reventure Consulting video, the narrator said: &#8220;They said, &#8216;Oh, it&#8217;s too wealthy.
