Find the right home in Oak Point, at the right price.

Oak Point is a small Denton County city of about 6,900 people (Census estimate, July 2025), up from 4,357 in 2020, on a peninsula of Lewisville Lake just south of US 380. It was incorporated in 1976, became a home rule city in 2022 and covers about 5.4 square miles. The city lists the Dallas North Tollway about 10 miles away, I-35E about 7 miles away and DFW Airport about 25 miles away.

For tax year 2025, an Oak Point home paid about 1.83% combined in Denton ISD (city 0.43546, Denton ISD 1.2069, Denton County 0.185938 per $100) or about 1.85% in Little Elm ISD (1.2252). On a $391,000 home that is about $7,150 to $7,220 a year, or roughly $600 a month, before exemptions; the $140,000 school homestead exemption brings a typical owner-occupied bill to about $5,500 a year (about $455 a month). Some neighborhoods also sit in one of four Oak Point Water Control and Improvement Districts, which added 0.29 to 0.82 per $100 in 2025, and the city manager's FY 2027 budget proposed raising the city rate by 0.039 to about 0.474.

Get three things in writing before you offer on an Oak Point home: the school district (Crescent Oaks and Emerald Sound are split), whether the lot is in one of the four Oak Point WCIDs, and the deed restrictions, which the city says it does not keep or enforce. The city also suggests checking the zoning map and future land use plan for vacant land near you, which matters on FM 720 where new commercial projects are planned.

Here is the lesson most buyers miss: Oak Point shares ZIP code 75068 with Little Elm, so the market numbers you see online usually blend both cities. Zillow's typical value for 75068 was about $391K in September 2026, down 5.4% in a year, with a median of 64 days to pending. Price and negotiate off recent sales inside Oak Point and your own neighborhood, not the ZIP average, and confirm the school district by street, because some neighborhoods are split between two districts.

Your buyer is comparing you to Little Elm, because Oak Point and Little Elm share ZIP 75068 and most home search sites blend them. Build your price from recent Oak Point sales, then market what the ZIP average misses: your school district, the lake and neighborhood amenities, and whether your home is outside a WCID. With homes in 75068 selling at a median 98.8% of list (Aug 2026, Zillow), fix inspection items like roof wear, fence and siding rot and drainage before listing, because from my years in remodeling, those small repairs are what buyers turn into big credit requests.
