Prosper And Celina Housing Frenzy: 209 Homes Change Hands In A Year

Prosper and Celina quietly racked up a serious housing tally over the past year, with 209 homes changing hands in the 12 months ending in April. That is up from about 181 closings the year before, and most of those sales landed in the $400,001-700,000 range, keeping the north-Dallas exurban market solidly in the middle tiers even as bigger metro trends start to wobble.
