Before you make an offer

What Forney buyers should know

Before you compare homes, ask for the tax bill or appraisal district record and check for a MUD, PID or the Forney Municipal Management District, since those can add from about $0.12 to $1.00 per $100. Confirm your electricity provider too: most of Forney is Oncor with retail choice, but parts are served by Trinity Valley Electric Cooperative or Farmers Electric Cooperative.

Seller guide

Pricing a Forney home right

Forney resales compete head to head with builders in Devonshire, Gateway Parks and other master plans, where new homes start near $300,000, so your price has to make sense next to a brand new house with a warranty. Homes here are mostly newer, so focus on the things that make a 5 to 15 year old home feel cared for: fresh paint, a serviced HVAC, clean gutters and drainage, and repaired fence and sprinkler issues. Point out low or no MUD taxes if your home has them, because that can mean hundreds of dollars a month in a buyer's payment.
