McKinney is preparing for a major transformation. On June 4, city council members approved zoning for a massive 785-acre master-planned development by the Billingsley Company. As the city expands, homeowners and investors alike should pay close attention not just to new real estate opportunities, but also to how rapid development could impact property taxes.

What’s in the Works?
The Billingsley development, located near the intersection of Bloomdale Road and Community Avenue, will include a mix of residential, commercial, and open space. Early plans show thousands of potential housing units, along with office, retail, and parkland making it one of the most significant mixed-use projects in McKinney’s recent history.

What This Means for Property Owners
Large-scale developments like this often lead to increased demand, higher property values, and, eventually, rising property tax assessments. For current McKinney residents, this means now is the time to start monitoring appraisal values and understanding your right to protest unfair increases.

Growth with a Price Tag
While the Billingsley project is expected to boost the local economy and improve infrastructure, it will likely accelerate the pace of property tax increases in surrounding neighborhoods. Many property owners may see their appraisals rise in anticipation of new amenities, road expansions, and business activity.

McKinney’s future is bright but with rapid growth comes financial responsibility for local homeowners.
