Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Ferris real estate market, updated for April 2026. *
Ferris is seeing a relatively small pool of homes for sale, with 34 properties on the market and 9 new listings in the latest month. Inventory has fallen about 8% from the prior month and about 21% compared with last year, which helps keep conditions tilted toward sellers. Contract activity is solid for a smaller city, with 12 pending sales and a 50% jump in pending deals versus a year ago.
Pricing is adjusting even as demand holds up. The typical home value is about $272,900, down just over 5% year over year, while sellers are asking a median list price of $315,000, which is slightly higher than last month. Homes are taking time to move, sitting a median of 151 days on the market, yet that timeline is nearly 18% shorter than a year ago. Roughly 47% of listings have had a price drop and only about 14% of recent sales closed above list price, with final sale prices averaging about 97% of asking.
Looking ahead to next month, typical values in Ferris are projected to edge down toward $265,602, while the median list price is expected to hold around $317,505 and inventory to ease to about 32 homes. Compared with Ellis County overall, where typical values are near $430,000 and projected to tick up, Ferris offers a more affordable option in a seller-leaning market. Buyers and sellers who want to navigate these shifting numbers can turn to Agent Pronto to connect with a local agent who understands Ferris specifically and can guide both sides effectively.
Market gauge is calculated based on the the number of active listings divided by home sales over the most recently available reporting period.
Ferris offers residents a tight-knit, welcoming community with affordable housing, solid schools, ample parks, and a growing mix of local businesses that make everyday life convenient and enjoyable.
Ferris stands out from nearby communities like Dallas and Mesquite with its small-town character, open skies, and quick access to major job centers via I‑45. Residents appreciate a lifestyle that still feels rural in many pockets, yet offers an easy commute to Downtown Dallas and nearby Lancaster and Wilmer.
Locals gather at places like Mutz Park and Old Brickyard Golf Club for recreation, while community events coordinated by the City of Ferris reinforce a strong sense of neighborly connection. Families are drawn to Ferris ISD, which includes Ferris High School and neighborhood elementary campuses that anchor many of the area’s subdivisions and acreage homes.
Housing in Ferris ranges from modest starter homes and established streets near the historic core to newer construction and small acreage tracts on the outskirts. Buyers often compare options here with nearby Cedar Hill or Waxahachie, weighing land, taxes, and commute times along the I‑45, I‑35E, and I‑20 corridors.
With continued regional growth, timing and preparation matter for both buyers and sellers in Ferris. The right local real estate agent can help you understand micro‑market trends, anticipate competition, and position your move strategically. Agent Pronto connects you with that agent so you are ready when the market moves.

“Tyon is an outstanding realtor and grateful and thankful that we got to work with him. I've been trying to sell my home for almost 2 years before working with him and out of the realtors that I've had, he did the most for us. He is all about his clients and makes sure to have their best interests at heart. He helped us with any repairs that could be done at the house so there wasn't any extra expense on our end, plus he ripped out the carpet for us so we could get it replaced.
