The model homes dotting Austin’s northern suburbs come with rate buy-downs, closing cost credits, and move-in-ready kitchens. But the purchase price often hides at least three costs that can push a household toward financial distress within the first two years of ownership. None of these costs show up on a listing sheet or during a ...

Homeowners who purchased in Central Texas near the market’s mid-2022 peak are now sitting on roughly 20 percent less value than what they paid. That is not a rounding error; it is a meaningful loss on paper, and local brokers say many of these owners are effectively stuck. They cannot sell without bringing money to ...

The Central Texas housing market has gone through a significant reset since its 2022 peak, and for buyers willing to do their homework, that correction is creating real opportunity. Prices in Williamson County – which covers communities like Georgetown, Round Rock, Leander, and Cedar Park – have declined roughly 20% from their highs, while sales ...

When relocation buyers compare housing costs in the North Austin suburbs to what they paid in California, Seattle, or Houston, they typically focus on purchase price and mortgage payment. Many miss that Texas property taxes do not follow a single statewide rate. Rates vary between communities, driven in part by a financing tool called municipal ...

Year-over-year home price declines near 20 percent in Austin, Texas, have made national news, painting a picture of a market in retreat. But that number blends two very different markets, according to Nitin Kumar, a residential agent and investor with eXp Realty in Austin. One is the established suburbs near Austin’s job centers.

In most Texas housing markets right now, buyers have leverage they have not enjoyed in years. Inventory is up, prices are softening, and seller concessions – credits toward closing costs or interest-rate buydowns – have become a common negotiating tool. But in the luxury corridors west of Dallas, that playbook stops working above a certain ...

The pandemic-era self-storage construction boom created a distinctive opportunity in secondary and tertiary markets: a fresh supply of newer facilities whose performance depends closely on how well their scale aligns with the local population. According to Tom de Jong, Executive Vice President at Colliers, a pattern he has encountered repeatedly involves 100,000 square feet of ...

Houston’s housing inventory has reached its highest level since 2012. That much supply usually gives buyers more bargaining power and opens doors for investors. But according to Kelvin Louie of KL Integrity Group, many Houston-area sellers bought during the pandemic and paid too much. Values in some areas have since dropped, and these sellers have ...

Houston’s fix-and-flip model thrived after the pandemic, but the numbers no longer add up. Investors want to buy distressed properties, meaning homes that need major repairs, and then renovate and resell them. But they are offering prices so far below what sellers will accept that deals rarely close. According to Tilah Spruel, founder of Lux ...

The gap between Houston’s residential market and its coastal neighbor shows what happens when short-term rental speculation meets a correction. Harris County, Texas, currently has roughly six months of housing inventory – enough to classify it as a balanced-to-soft market where sellers need to price carefully and present homes in strong condition. But the sharper ...

The U.S. rental market built aggressively during the pandemic era, particularly in Sunbelt cities like Nashville, Austin, and Dallas. Now much of that new inventory, especially high-end apartments, is sitting partially empty, competing for renters whose budgets have tightened considerably since construction began. The disconnect is straightforward: developers built expensive Class A apartments in markets ...

In most American markets, holding a property for ten or twelve years builds a cushion of equity. In Manhattan, that assumption no longer holds across large segments of the market, according to Nikolay Afanasyev, Founder & CEO of CITY SPHERE Property Group, a boutique brokerage covering Manhattan and parts of Brooklyn. Rising building carrying costs, ...

For buyers waiting on the largest purchase of their lives, the appraisal process is one of the last black boxes in a home purchase. Turnaround time isn’t a single number; it’s the sum of scheduling, inspection, report production, quality review, and any revision cycles that follow, and thin appraiser panels and uncontrolled revision cycles are ...
