Dallas to Host Nine FIFA World Cup 2026 Matches
What North Texas Buyers & Sellers Need to Know
Dallas is set to take center stage for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, with AT&T Stadium in Arlington hosting nine matches—more than any other U.S. venue—including group-stage games, knockout rounds and a semifinal. From June 11 through July 19, 2026, the world’s most-watched sporting event will bring an intense surge of international attention, visitors and media to North Texas. For homeowners and buyers in Frisco, McKinney, Celina, Prosper and Plano, that global spotlight represents more than civic pride— it presents a short but powerful window of opportunity in the local real estate market.
The scale of the tournament is historic: 104 matches played across 39 days, with Dallas welcoming high-profile national teams such as Argentina, England and the Netherlands. That level of exposure guarantees worldwide television audiences and a steady influx of fans, media professionals and corporate sponsors. As hotels across the Dallas–Fort Worth area fill quickly, demand will spill into surrounding suburbs, where travelers often prefer larger homes, upscale neighborhoods and amenity-rich properties suited for families or group stays. Well-located single-
family homes and condos with guest suites, outdoor entertaining spaces or flexible floorplans may command premium short-term rates during peak match weeks.
Beyond lodging, the local economy is expected to experience a noticeable lift. Restaurants, private chefs, transportation services, event planners and concierge providers will see increased demand, creating a buzz that often carries over into real estate activity. Sellers who strategically time listings or open houses around pre- and post-match periods may benefit from heightened traffic and buyer interest, particularly from relocating professionals or investors drawn to the region’s visibility. Hosting an event of this magnitude also reinforces North Texas’s brand on a global stage, making neighborhoods known for privacy, hospitality and lifestyle amenities especially attractive to buyers who enjoy entertaining or hosting visiting friends and family.
While the tournament will bring temporary inconveniences— heavier traffic, parking restrictions near the stadium and short-lived price inflation for rentals—these disruptions are brief compared to the longerterm upside. Major events like the World Cup often accelerate infrastructure improvements and hospitality investment, factors that can support property values well beyond the final match. For sellers and hosts, thoughtful preparation matters. Homes staged with guests in mind, clear highlights of access to dining, airports and entertainment, and attention to security and concierge-style features can stand out in a competitive market. Understanding local short-term rental regulations across different
cities is also essential for those considering event-driven hosting.
Buyers, particularly investors, may find opportunity as well—but with perspective. While match weekends can generate strong short-term cash flow, the most successful purchases will be those that perform well year-round. Properties with versatile layouts, guest accommodations and everyday rental appeal are better positioned for sustainable returns than those relying solely on event spikes. A multi-year outlook remains key.
Ultimately, the 2026 FIFA World Cup is global theater unfolding on Dallas’s doorstep. For homeowners, sellers and investors across North Dallas suburbs, it offers a concentrated moment of exposure and energy that can translate into meaningful financial and lifestyle gains. With the right strategy and preparation, the weeks surrounding the tournament can leave a lasting positive imprint—long after the final whistle blows.
Lavon Farms – 215-acre
Mixed-Use Community Paving the Way for East Plano’s Next Chapter
From dairy farmland to a modern master-planned neighborhood: Lavon Farms could bring 1,678 homes, open space and a touch of history to east Plano.
Lavon Farms represents a notable shift in how growth is being envisioned in East Plano, blending new residential demand with a deliberate respect for the area’s agricultural roots.
The proposed project would transform a historic dairy farm into a 215-acre mixed-use community designed to balance housing, open space and lifestyle amenities.
Plans call for up to 626 singlefamily 1,052 multifamily units, creating a diverse residential mix that reflects changing buyer and renter needs across North Texas.
A defining feature of the development is its commitment to open space and heritage. Roughly 37 acres are slated to remain undeveloped, including at least 10 acres of parks and a designated “Rural Preserve.” This preserve is intended to honor the property’s history, with concepts such as a micro-farm, potential farmers’ markets, food trucks or garden-center-style retail woven into the community fabric. Rather than erasing the past, the proposal aims to integrate it, creating a neighborhood identity rooted in both tradition and modern living.
The site plan organizes Lavon Farms into three distinct subdistricts. One area emphasizes a suburban feel with detached homes, duplexes, townhomes and small-lot residences. A second section focuses on multifamily living, with two- to four-story apartment buildings that support modern rental or condominium lifestyles near shared amenities. Anchoring the development is the Rural Preserve, where signature elements of the original farm—such as the silo and stone entrance— would be retained as visual and cultural touchstones.
From an entitlement standpoint, the project has cleared an important hurdle. In November 2025, the Plano Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approval of the rezoning needed to move the plan forward, shifting the land designation from agricultural use to a residential community design. Final approval now rests with the Plano City Council, with a vote expected in early December 2025. If approved, developers anticipate beginning infrastructure work and initial construction by the end of 2026, with a full buildout spanning roughly seven years.
For East Plano and the broader market, Lavon Farms signals a thoughtful approach to growth at a time when developable land in the city is increasingly scarce. By combining multiple housing types with meaningful green space and community-oriented amenities, the project expands the local housing stock while preserving character. Families, move-up buyers, downsizers and renters could all find suitable options within the same masterplanned environment, supporting a more balanced and resilient neighborhood.
The long-term implications are especially relevant for buyers, investors and advisors. Families looking for a long-term home may see value in the singlefamily or small-lot offerings paired with future parks and amenities. Investors and renters may be drawn to the multifamily component, positioned to serve young professionals, small households or downsizers seeking proximity to open space and services. For lifestyle-focused
buyers, the Rural Preserve and walkable green areas add a dimension that goes beyond traditional subdivision living. Ultimately, Lavon Farms is best understood not simply as a new development, but as a lifestyle community shaped by balance— between density and open space, history and progress, private homes and shared amenities. As East Plano continues to evolve, projects like this may set the tone for how future growth delivers both livability and long-term value.
What’s New in Dallas Suburbs: Developments & Real Estate Impact
From master-planned luxury communities to booming retail and mixed-use hubs — the Dallas suburbs are redefining upscale living for 2026.
The Dallas–Fort Worth region remains firmly in growth mode, with rising inventory, expanding infrastructure and a steady influx of buyers drawn to upscale suburban living. As new master-planned communities break ground and demand continues to catch up with supply, the market is entering a phase that creates meaningful opportunities on both sides of the transaction. Buyers are gaining options, while sellers benefit from a region whose population, employment base and lifestyle offerings continue to deepen and diversify.
Several high-profile residential developments illustrate how quickly
North Texas is evolving. In Frisco, The Preserve is emerging as one of the area’s most exclusive new addresses. Set within the broader 2,500-acre Fields development, this 267-acre gated enclave is designed for buyers seeking privacy and luxury at scale. The first phase includes 233 custom homes, with lot sizes ranging from roughly 6,800 square feet to more than an acre, and early construction already underway. With home prices starting around $3.5 million, The Preserve clearly targets high-net-worth buyers who value space, security and a refined residential environment.
Farther north in Prosper, Mirabella represents a different—but equally
compelling—luxury proposition. This 190-acre gated community recently broke ground and is expected to deliver approximately 285 to 290 homes, with sales projected to begin in late 2026. Oversized lots, natural landscaping and hike-and-bike trails anchor the community’s lifestyle appeal, blending outdoor access with suburban convenience. Expected starting prices around $1 million position Mirabella as an attractive option for buyers seeking luxury and land at a more accessible entry point than core-city or ultrapremium enclaves.
The Preserve- Frisco
Meanwhile, the proposed Huntington Park development along the McKinney–Prosper corridor highlights a broader shift in how North Texas suburbs are being planned. Spanning roughly 786 acres, the project envisions a mix of single-family homes on 40-, 50- and 60-foot lots, alongside townhomes, apartments, retail, commercial space and generous open areas. If approved, Huntington Park could significantly shape the northwest McKinney and Prosper-adjacent landscape, offering housing diversity that ranges from traditional suburban living to more urban, mixed-use environments. The plan reflects a growing reality: today’s suburbs are no longer defined solely by large-lot single-family homes, but by convenience, walkability and integrated amenities.
That evolution is also evident in the region’s retail and commercial market. Across fast-growing suburbs such as Prosper, Celina and Melissa, retail asking rents have surged by roughly 42 percent in recent years, reaching as high as $50 per square foot. For businesses, that translates into a willingness to pay a premium to be close to expanding residential bases. For homeowners and investors, it signals that retail infrastructure is scaling in step with population growth and lifestyle
with population growth and lifestyle demand—often a value-enhancing factor for nearby neighborhoods. Taken together, these trends carry clear implications for buyers, sellers and investors. Luxury buyers are finding compelling gated-community options in developments like The Preserve and Mirabella, where privacy, amenities and long-term value align with sustained regional growth. Valueconscious buyers and investors may find opportunity in more diversified projects such as Huntington Park, where a range of housing types can support both owner-occupancy and rental strategies. Commercial investors—and homeowners near emerging retail nodes—stand to benefit from rising suburban rents and increased area desirability. For sellers in established neighborhoods, expanding new construction underscores the importance of pricing strategically, highlighting upgrades and positioning homes not just as residences, but as lifestyle assets in a region that continues to move forward.

the winter homeowners handbook
A curated guide to buying and selling with confidence this season.
WARMTH WINS
1. 2. 3. 4.
In winter, homes tell their most honest story. Soft lighting, layered textures, and subtle seasonal décor create a sense of calm that buyers immediately connect with. A warm, inviting atmosphere is more than aesthetic — it’s emotional architecture. It helps buyers imagine how life might unfold inside your walls.
CURB APPEAL, REINVENTED
Even when gardens sleep, curb appeal commands attention. Clean entryways, fresh exterior lighting, neat walkways, and winter greenery create a polished first impression. A well-kept exterior communicates care, quality, and pride — exactly what today’s buyers are searching for.
SERIOUS SEASON, SERIOUS BUYERS
Winter attracts a particular kind of buyer: focused, motivated, and ready to move. With fewer competing listings, sellers enjoy elevated visibility, while buyers benefit from more thoughtful tours and stronger negotiation opportunities. When guided by a seasoned Monument agent, winter becomes a season of strategic advantage.
WHAT WINTER REVEALS
Cold air and shorter days uncover details that can be easy to overlook in other seasons — insulation quality, draft points, natural lighting patterns, and HVAC performance. Buyers touring in winter gain invaluable insight into how a home truly lives, far beyond staged décor and sunny-day impressions.

BEYOND THE MLS
Winter is an ideal season to explore earlyrelease, off-market, and private-network listings. Monument agents often receive access to properties before they are publicly available, giving buyers a meaningful advantage

Professional photography makes all the difference. Warm lighting, thoughtful staging, and intentional styling bring a winter home to life on the page. The right imagery showcases not just the property, but the lifestyle it offers — elevated, comfortable, and effortlessly refined.
SUPPORT THAT EXTENDS INTO THE NEW YEAR
A Monument agent’s commitment goes far beyond the closing table. From trusted contractors and designers to movers, organizers, and home-service specialists, our network ensures a seamless transition into your next chapter. Winter becomes a season of ease, guided by experts who understand both
