Sell Your Home in The Colony, Texas
Updated September 2026 by Sherien Joyner, Carrollton REALTOR®, GRI
If you are selling in The Colony or 75056, you need comps from your street — not seven reasons to list today.
I live in Carrollton and list in The Colony. The first step is a pricing range from nearby sold homes, then a plan for photos, showings, and net proceeds.

What The Colony sellers should know in 2026
The Colony is a lake-and-75056 market sitting between Lewisville, Frisco, and Carrollton. Buyers compare older Colony interiors, Castle Hills and planned streets, and lake-adjacent homes. They also compare you to Lewisville.
Recent closings have often landed from the mid-$400,000s to around $500,000, with planned and lake product higher. Clean, well-priced houses still move. Hopeful prices sit.
We price from:
-
the last 3–6 closed sales on streets like yours
-
city vs 75056-only (the zip is bigger than the city)
-
condition: roof, HVAC, foundation, kitchen/baths
-
HOA and whether the buyer is shopping Grandscape / lake vs a payment
Bring the address. I will tell you a range and what would change it.
The Colony is not one listing
Established interior streets
Most homes in The Colony are on established streets away from the lake. Updates and the yard affect the price more than the city name does.
Lake / Hidden Cove / Stewart Creek side
Lifestyle buyers. Confirm access, HOA, and condition. Do not price it like a plain interior street — or like a new Castle Hills house if it is not one.
Castle Hills and planned pockets
75056 homes outside The Colony
The 75056 zip reaches past The Colony’s city limits. If your home is in a different city, I say so on the listing and price it against the right homes.

What to fix before we list
Usually worth it: curb, leaks, dead HVAC, unsafe items, paint if the house is dark, receipts for roof or HVAC age.
Often not worth it: a luxury kitchen you will not recoup in 60 days, adding a pool, over-improving past the comps.
Selling here so you can buy the next house
Many Colony sellers are moving to a one-story, Lewisville, Carrollton, or another part of North DFW. We can line up the sale and the next purchase.

Why list with a Carrollton-based agent who works The Colony
I am Sherien Joyner, REALTOR® and GRI. I live in Carrollton and work The Colony on the same loop as Lewisville. I will tell you when the kitchen remodel will not pay off, and when the lake is the whole marketing story.

Frequently asked questions
How much is my home in The Colony worth?
Online estimates miss the city line, HOA, and condition. Use the valuation on my sell page, then I will review nearby sales with you.
How long does it take to sell?
Well-priced, ready homes can still move in a few weeks. High prices and deferred maintenance take longer.
Does the city line change my list price?
Often, yes. A 75056 home outside The Colony draws a different buyer, so I price it against the right sales.
Do I have to remodel first?
Not always. I will tell you which repairs pay.
Can you list if I live out of town?
Yes.
What will I net?
I estimate net proceeds when we price the house. List price is not take-home.
