Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What is the current median sale price for a property in Kaufman County, TX?

Who are the major developers of new construction homes in Kaufman County, TX?

New construction homes in Kaufman County, TX are primarily built by leading developers like Bloomfield Homes, Lennar, Perry Homes, D.R. Horton and Highland Homes. These builders are recognized for their quality construction and innovative home designs.

Which communities offer the largest selection of new construction in Kaufman County?

The epicenter of residential growth is undoubtedly Forney, which consistently ranks as one of the fastest-growing cities in the region due to massive developments like Devonshire. Crandall is another major hub, home to the colossal Heartland master-planned community, which frequently appears on national top-selling lists. Additionally, Terrell is seeing a surge in inventory as development pushes further east along US-80. These areas attract buyers looking for modern amenities and resort-style pools at price points that are generally more attainable than the Dallas suburbs to the west.

What should buyers understand about MUDs and PIDs in Kaufman County?

Kaufman County is known for having some of the higher property tax rates in the DFW metroplex, largely due to the prevalence of Municipal Utility Districts (MUDs) and Public Improvement Districts (PIDs). Almost every major new home community—especially in Forney and Crandall—utilizes these special districts to fund roads, water, and sewer infrastructure. This results in a total tax rate that is often higher than in established cities without these assessments. It is vital to ask the builder for the specific "total tax rate" to accurately calculate your monthly mortgage payment.

How does the highway network support commuting from Kaufman County?

Residents primarily rely on US Highway 80 and Interstate 20 to connect to downtown Dallas and the eastern employment centers. The Spur 557 link allows for smooth transitions between these major arteries near Forney. However, buyers should be aware that due to the rapid population explosion, US-80 is currently undergoing significant widening and construction projects to increase capacity. While these improvements will eventually ease congestion, commuters should currently plan for delays during peak hours when traveling west toward the Dallas loop.
