Denison, TX Housing Market 2026: What Homes Actually Sell For

If you invest in or around Denison, the number that matters is what homes actually close for, not what sellers are asking. Here is what Denison sale prices look like right now, built from the closings Resideline tracked over the last six months, as of September 2026.

The snapshot

• •Closings tracked, last 6 months: 197
• •Median sold price, last 6 months: $219,000
• •Median sold $/sqft, last 6 months: $147
• •Middle half of sales closed between: $159,900 and $324,900

What the numbers say

Resideline tracked 197 closed sales in Denison over the last six months, with a median closing price of $219,000. That median is the midpoint of what buyers actually paid, not what sellers hoped to get, which is why it moves differently from the asking prices you see on listing sites. The middle half of those sales closed between $159,900 and $324,900. That spread matters more than the headline median: where a specific property sits inside it decides whether the citywide number helps you or misleads you. These are the closings Resideline tracks and may differ from complete county or municipal records. 95% of the Denison closings we track here are single-family houses, so these figures primarily reflect that segment, and the citywide $/sqft figure primarily reflects that segment as well. Across the 196 closings with usable living area, the middle half sold between $115 and $175 per square foot.

Where Denison sale prices land

Medians hide the shape of a market. The distribution above covers the closed sales Resideline tracked in Denison over the last six months that carry a usable sale date, trimmed to the 5th through 95th percentile, with the middle half of sales closing between $159,900 and $324,900. Among the 127 Texas markets with a published band, Denison's middle-half spread ($159,900 to $324,900) ranks 121st from the narrowest. Where your target property sits inside that spread matters more than the citywide median. Measured as the ratio of the upper to the lower quartile, its middle-half spread ranks in the 79th percentile of the 2,187 US markets in Resideline's national Market Watch set, on data as of September 4, 2026.

How long a sale takes here

• •Listed to under contract: a median of 52 days, across 156 Denison closings Resideline tracked in the last six months
• •Contract to closing: a median of 19 days, across 146 Denison closings Resideline tracked in the last six months

The Denison angle

Denison spreads wider than most markets we track, and the range is noticeably lopsided. Across 197 closings Resideline tracked over the last six months, the median closed sale price was $219,000, and the middle half of sales closed between $159,900 and $324,900. Considerably more distance separates the median from the upper quartile than from the lower one, so a valuation anchored on the citywide figure will tend to sit low for anything in the upper part of the market. This is one of the thinnest comp sets we track, so filter discipline matters more than filter count: match on what actually moves price for your subject, verify each closing individually, and extend the lookback rather than diluting the match.

From market read to offer price

A market read is the backdrop. The decision still comes down to one property and one number: what it is actually worth and what you should pay. Every Resideline report opens with this same market snapshot for the subject's exact ZIP code, then gives you the property's value, the sold comps behind it, and a market rent estimate. Pricing a specific deal? The free ARV calculator and rental property calculator run the numbers in about a minute.

And we show our work. Every estimate is frozen while the home is for sale, so it cannot be revised once the sale price is known. Grading it is a different matter in Texas: because sale prices are not public record here, a confirmed closing price reaches us for only a small share of Texas homes, and most Texas estimates stay frozen and ungraded. The accuracy scoreboard is therefore a national record rather than a Texas one. See the live accuracy dashboard for the receipts, or read how the Area Market Snapshot works.

Run any Denison address through Resideline and you will see the local market and the property's value together, in one report.
