The Oklahoma housing market is shifting—fast. More buyers than ever are choosing new construction homes across the Oklahoma City metro, including Yukon, Mustang, Piedmont, Moore, Norman, Choctaw, and the rapidly growing west and north OKC areas.

With improved construction standards, stronger energy efficiency, modern layouts, and lower long-term maintenance costs, new builds are becoming the top choice for Oklahoma buyers in 2025.

Here’s why today’s buyers are choosing new construction—and why Topmark Homes continues to stand out across the OKC metro.
