Austin Market

Austin, TX, the place to be!!!

Why?  Here in Central Texas we are sitting on a gold mine.  Well, it may not feel like it right now, but the housing market and economy in Austin are much better off than practically anywhere else in the country. 

There are many things that are helping us through this time that many are finding difficult. 

DID YOU KNOW!?  During the decade of the '90s, Austin gained more population than 38 states?!

DID YOU KNOW!?  In 2007 Governor Rick Perry said that out of all the jobs created in the United States, 50% were in Texas!!  That's right 1/2 the new jobs in 2007 were in the great state of TEXAS!!

It's stats like these that are helping us out.  The simple truth is, we are still seeing similar stats even today.  This means lots of good things for us here in Texas, and especially Central Texas.  It is because of new jobs, and growing population that our housing market is still doing well.  You may not believe me, but we are not doing that bad.  Especially if you are a buyer.

Right now,if you are looking to buy in Texas(Central Texas), you are seeing reasonably low interest rates, lots of houses to choose from, and low, low prices.  All things that help when purchasing a home. 

On the other side, in many areas of Austin and Central Texas, we are seeing the average prices of home going up from this same time last year.  Just another indicator that we are in a great place during this time.
