Collin County property values once again are showing an increase, according to figures released by the county’s appraisal district.

The Collin Central Appraisal District (CCAD) mailed the 2023 real property appraisal notices to property owners on April 15. Business personal property mailings are scheduled for mid-May.

According to Deputy Chief Appraiser Brian Swanson there are several factors for the value increases, most notably supply and demand.

“The number of people moving to Collin County in the last few years has done nothing but increase (demand) and has caused a shortage of property that is available to be purchased (supply),” Swanson said. “As the supply has decreased, the demand has increased, and the home prices have followed suit.”

He continued that the current employment climate is drawing more people migrating to Collin County for jobs, which has created more housing demand.

Property values in Collin County increased by 9.25% to $213.2 billion with $7.75 billion in new property added to the tax roll. The Collin College District had a total appraised value of $218.2 billion, a 9.2% increase from 2022.

CCAD reported the average market value of a Collin County home in 2023 was $580,900, compared to $510,605 in 2022.

In the city of Wylie, CCAD data shows a 10.7% increase in taxable value, from $6.57 billion to $7.27 billion with $165.9 million in new construction.
