No Matter the Forecast, Austin Real Estate Is Looking Bright

We’ve only just dug out from under the snow before we’re loading up the picnic basket and sunscreen for a day at Barton Springs. It’s been a wild winter and even knowing how to dress from one day to the next is a challenge.

But one of the things we love about Austin is its variety. Great music, great food, great schools, and innumerable cultural and sporting events keep our vibrant city a desirable place to live. And while it’s been a challenge for both buyers and sellers over the past couple of years, things are looking up.

Interest rates continue to drop, making home ownership available to those who’ve been sitting on the sidelines. In addition, inventory is rising, giving buyers ample opportunities in every neighborhood in town. And for sellers in the higher price points, there is growing demand.

Developers continue to bet on our city and region, with new construction booming. In fact, Austin is the number six metro for new housing starts. We’re still a place people love to live!

Even with the good news, it’s easy to get confused. Just like knowing what to wear for the snow and the sunshine (and the soon-to-bloom bluebonnets!), it takes some preparation…and genuine market knowledge.

At Intelligent Real Estate, we have deep ties and insight into the central Texas and Austin metro market, and we work relentlessly for our clients. We’re proud that you have repaid us with hundreds of referrals and repeat business opportunities. It’s a privilege to earn your trust with every meeting, every phone call, every showing, and every deal.
