North Richland Hills Home Prices

Ben's take: “North Richland Hills is one of the few DFW cities where I still tell buyers to move fast. Two months of supply means the good ones don't wait.”— Ben Jimenez, Real Estate Agent, Real Broker, LLC

North Richland Hills homes sold for a median of about $405,000 in May 2026, up 2.5% since November 2024, with a median of 34 days on market, a 98.7% sale-to-list ratio and only about 2.1 months of supply (Redfin). About a quarter of homes sold over list. This is a seller's market by DFW standards.

City Point

Cost of Owning a Home in North Richland Hills

Ben's take: “In North Richland Hills, check for a PID in newer communities like City Point. It's on top of the regular rate and it belongs in the monthly payment math.”— Ben Jimenez, Real Estate Agent, Real Broker, LLC

The city raised its rate about 11.5% for 2026-27, so check the current bill, not last year's. Two school districts split the city.

City of North Richland Hills (FY 2026-27)$0.555144 per $100
Birdville ISD$1.18654 per $100
Keller ISD (north NRH)$1.0852 per $100
Tarrant County$0.186 per $100
JPS Hospital District$0.159 per $100
Tarrant County College$0.12 per $100

Example

In Birdville ISD the combined rate is about $2.21 per $100, so a $405,000 taxable value comes to about $8,940 a year before exemptions. City Point adds a PID assessment of about 0.4%. I pull the exact bill before my buyers make an offer.

North Richland Hills Schools

Ben's take: “Birdville ISD or Keller ISD depends on the street in North Richland Hills. I confirm it for the exact address before my buyers write an offer.”— Ben Jimenez, Real Estate Agent, Real Broker, LLC

Most of North Richland Hills is in Birdville ISD, over 22,200 students across 31 campuses, with Birdville High and Richland High in the city. The northern part of the city is in Keller ISD. Tarrant County College's Northeast Campus sits on the North Richland Hills and Hurst line.
