Cindy and Cory Dunnican founded The Dunnican Team in 1998 and have been serving buyers
and sellers in Northeast Dallas, Rockwall County, and the communities surrounding Lake
Ray Hubbard and Lake Lavon ever since. Their practice is built on a simple standard:
every client works directly with Cindy or Cory — not a junior agent or a showing
assistant filling in.
Cindy leads the listing side — pricing strategy, property marketing, and guiding sellers
through every stage from preparation through closing. Cory leads buyer representation —
bringing a background in mortgage lending and real estate finance that helps clients
evaluate purchases with a clear, grounded perspective on long-term value.
Together, they’ve closed more than 1,850 home sales and $3.5 billion in career sales
volume, consistently ranked among the top 1% of agents in the North Texas MLS. Cheryl
Holder, their Client Services Manager and Transaction Coordinator, has been the
operational anchor of every transaction since 2018 — keeping every detail on track
from executed contract through closing day.
This blog — Inside North Texas Real Estate — is the editorial property of
The Dunnican Team. Every article is written from active client work and firsthand
local market knowledge.

Our Approach
Steady Guidance. Structured Thinking. Real Results.
Real estate decisions carry real financial consequences. Our job is to help clients make
those decisions with clarity — not pressure, not urgency manufactured to drive a quick
close, and not advice shaped by what’s easiest for us.
We work before the market does. That means defining goals and guardrails before a home
goes live, pricing from a position of leverage rather than optimism, and managing every
stage of the transaction with the same discipline. The goal isn’t the fastest sale —
it’s the right outcome, structured from the beginning to protect what clients have
worked to build.
“You don’t control the market. You control your preparation.”
Our Core Values
What We Stand For
1
Honesty Over Convenience
We tell clients what they need to hear, not what’s easiest to say. That means accurate
pricing even when it’s not the number someone hoped for, honest assessments of offers,
and straightforward guidance when conditions shift. Trust is built on consistency — and
that starts with transparency in every conversation.
2
Preparation Before Movement
We don’t move until the structure is sound. Sellers don’t list until pricing, timing,
and presentation are right. Buyers don’t make offers until the numbers and resale
picture are understood. Rushing a real estate decision to close faster rarely serves
the client — it serves the transaction. We’re here for the client.
3
Direct Access, Always
When you work with The Dunnican Team, you work with Cindy or Cory directly —
from the first conversation through closing. Not an assistant, not a showing agent
filling in. Life’s most significant financial decisions deserve direct access to the
person responsible for guiding them.
4
Faith-Driven Purpose
We approach this work as a calling — to serve well, act with integrity, and honor
the trust clients place in us. That foundation shapes how we handle every decision,
including the hard ones, and it’s what we come back to when the process gets complicated.
5
Rooted in This Community
We don’t just work in Northeast Dallas and Rockwall County — we live here. Cindy and
Cory have raised their family in these communities for more than two decades. That’s
not a marketing line. It’s the reason our local knowledge runs deeper than most,
and why this market is personal to us.
What We Do
Full-Service Representation Across Every Transaction Type
We specialize in residential resale, luxury listings, new construction, relocation,
downsizing, and lifestyle properties — including lakefront and golf course homes
across the Lake Cities area.
Cindy handles listing strategy, pricing, marketing, and seller guidance. Cory handles
buyer representation, financial analysis, offer structure, and new construction
evaluation. Cheryl manages every transaction from contract through closing.
Whether you’re preparing a longtime family home for the market, purchasing a new
construction home in Fate or Royse City, or relocating to North Texas from across
the country — we bring the same structured, deliberate approach to every transaction.
Where We Serve
Lake Cities & Greater Northeast Dallas
We are focused on the communities surrounding Lake Ray Hubbard and Lake Lavon,
and the broader Northeast Dallas and Rockwall County area across Dallas, Rockwall,
and Collin Counties.
