Why work with Mali in Addison

Addison is unlike any other town in this guide series, and the numbers say so plainly. Roughly 17,300 people live here, but the daytime population is estimated above 120,000. This is a place the region commutes into. Only about 18% of its occupied homes are owner-occupied, only about 8% of residents are under 18, and roughly 64% of adults hold a bachelor's degree or higher. What that adds up to is a dense, walkable, restaurant-saturated town where the for-sale stock is mostly townhomes, condos and mid-rise units around Addison Circle and Vitruvian Park rather than subdivisions of detached houses. As of October 2025 it also has a DART Silver Line station with a one-seat rail ride to DFW Airport. If you want a big yard and a neighborhood elementary at the end of the street, Addison is the wrong suburb, and it is worth knowing that before you tour.

  • Local to Addison, not just "the metroplex" - she knows the neighborhoods, schools, and HOAs block by block.
  • Represents you on both sides: buying, selling, or selling-to-buy with the two closings coordinated.
  • Straight answers on price and fees up front - no pressure, no jargon.
  • Access to off-market and new-build inventory beyond what's on the public portals.

What buyers love about Addison

  • Addison Circle and Vitruvian Park: dense, walkable mixed-use districts of brownstones, townhomes and mid-rise apartments rather than conventional subdivisions
  • Roughly 200 restaurants packed into 4.4 square miles, one of the highest restaurant-per-capita concentrations in the country
  • The DART Silver Line's Addison Station, opened October 25, 2025, with rail service west to DFW Airport and east to Richardson, UT Dallas and Plano
  • A genuine employment center: Mary Kay, Wingstop, Concentra and Daseke are headquartered here, and the daytime population is estimated above 120,000 against ~17,300 residents

Realtor in Addison: common questions

How do I find a good realtor in Addison?

Look for an agent who works Addison specifically - not just "the DFW metroplex" - and can show recent, verifiable closings there. Mali Gariani is a licensed Texas real estate agent who represents buyers and sellers across Addison and the surrounding North Texas suburbs, with local sales you can look up on Zillow and reviews from Addison-area clients. The fastest way to start is a no-pressure call to talk through your timeline and price range.

How much does a realtor cost in Addison?

Real estate commissions are negotiable and are not set by law. Since the 2024 National Association of Realtors settlement, buyer-broker compensation is agreed in writing before you tour homes, so you always know the terms up front. For sellers, Mali will walk you through what a listing costs and what it nets you before you sign anything. Ask for a straight answer on fees - a good Addison agent gives you one.

Does Mali help with both buying and selling in Addison?

Yes. Mali represents both buyers and sellers in Addison: for buyers, that means finding homes (including off-market and new-build), touring, and negotiating; for sellers, a free comparative market analysis, pricing strategy, and full listing marketing. If you're doing both at once - selling to buy - she coordinates the two closings so you're not caught between them.

Which parts of Addison does Mali cover?

All of Addison, including Addison Circle, Les Lacs, Oaks North. Because she works the whole city rather than one subdivision, she can compare neighborhoods on schools, commute, HOA, and resale for your specific shortlist instead of steering you to one pocket.

What school district is Addison, Texas in?

Most of Addison is served by Dallas ISD, in the W.T. White High School feeder pattern: George H.W. Bush Elementary, then Thomas C. Marsh Preparatory Academy, then W.T. White High School. The southern end of the town is served by Carrollton-Farmers Branch ISD. Addison is not in Plano ISD or Richardson ISD, which buyers frequently assume from the address. Only one public campus, Bush Elementary at 3939 Spring Valley Rd, is physically inside Addison; the middle and high school sit just over the town line in Dallas. Verify the district for the specific address before you write an offer.

Is Addison a good place to buy a house?

It depends entirely on what you are buying. About 82% of Addison's occupied homes are rentals (ACS 2020–2024 5-year), and the for-sale inventory skews to townhomes, condos and mid-rise units in Addison Circle and Vitruvian Park. If you want a walkable, low-maintenance home in a dense town with 200 restaurants and a rail station, Addison is genuinely hard to beat. If you want a detached house on a lot with a neighborhood elementary down the street, the inventory here is thin and you will do better in Carrollton, Richardson or Plano.
