Where can I afford to buy in DFW? Type your budget, see your towns.

Type a maximum price and this free tool lists the North Texas towns where that money actually buys a home, ranked from 94,302 closed sales across 186 cities (NTREIS MLS, last twelve months). No sign-up. A town is "in reach" when its median sale price is at or below the budget; the five best fits are ranked by how much house the money buys and how many homes sell there each year. Add ?b=450000 to the address to preload a budget.
