Real Estate Market Update

While the real estate sales market continues to adjust to the interest rate changes earlier this year we still see a healthy demand for rentals in our market that continues to have a housing shortage. The population of many Texas cities continues to grow with employers moving or expanding in Central Texas, and as of 2022 the US Census Bureau stated that “Georgetown, Texas, remained the fastest-growing city by percent change in 2022.”

Summer Heat Waves

The Summer Solstice is here and we are feeling it! Blistering summer-like heat has brought on excessive heat warnings and heat advisories in effect for much of Texas with no clear end in sight. With major cities across Texas breaking heat records, we want to urge all residents to stay safe in the extreme heat and try to avoid the hottest hours of the day, if you can. When temperatures reach such highs do the following:

Drink plenty of fluids
Stay in an air-conditioned room, out of the sun
Use fans to cool you off instead of turning down the A/C thermostat
Do not leave young children or pets unattended in vehicles in any circumstance
When possible, reschedule strenuous activities to early morning or evening if you work or spend time outside
Check on the elderly, sick and those without A/C

Austin, Texas Leasing Market Update

As we move further into 2023, Greater Austin’s real estate market has seen some pretty significant shifts in pricing, inventory, and more. Above you will see the April 2023 market stats released from the Austin Board of Realtors.
