Here in Texas, we’re seeing impressive momentum in home remodeling—our state accounted for nearly $20 billion in remodeling activity in the first quarter of 2026, making up about 7% of the nation’s total. That’s not just a big number; it means Texas continues to be one of the top three states driving the remodeling market, even when activity dips elsewhere. As a REALTOR® serving Dallas, Rockwall, Forney, and surrounding areas, I’ve noticed this steady confidence firsthand. The sector’s confidence levels have stayed strong (above 60 for the past year), so homeowners are feeling empowered to refresh their spaces and invest in updates that let them enjoy their home for years to come. With rising home equity, more people are taking on projects to support aging in place or simply enhance their lifestyle. If you’re considering your next move—whether selling, buying, or updating your current home—it’s helpful to know that our local market remains a leader when it comes to remodeling demand and opportunity.
