Why Is It A Great Time To Be A Buyer Or Seller In Austin Tx Right Now
Last Updated: 2010-01-17 16:08:57
Austin, TX real estate is still moving along very strong. Because Texas never had a real estate "bubble", there was no "boom-crash" that took place like in many other areas of the country.
Austin, TX is consistently winning awards. For example, Austin was just voted at the top of Forbes.com's list for America's Best Bargain Cities.
Along with Austin, all of Texas' largest cities made the top 10, Dallas, Houston, Fort Worth, and San Antonio.
Austin, TX was also chosen by Forbes as the #8 ranking for the Best Places for Business and Career. What does this mean? The job market is doing really well. Just in the past couple of weeks, it's been announced that a couple of big companies will be moving their headquarters to Austin.
According to Relocation.com, Austin TX is also the #1 City to Relocate for a Fresh Start. This means that if you're down and out somewhere else in the country, moving to Austin would lift your spirits and offer you a new, fresh start for life, family, and career.
Austin currently has the lowest unemployment rate in the entire country at only 5.5%.
Austin currently has a median sales price of a modest $188,000. In many parts of the country, you can't even get a 1 bedroom condo for that little!!
With everything Austin has to offer, how could you not think about making Austin, TX your home? Whether you're buying or selling, I'll be with you every step of the way. I concentrate on residential real estate, new and preowned, in the Austin, TX areas including Lakeway, Bee Cave, West Lake Hills, Round Rock, Cedar Park, Spicewood, Circle C, Steiner Ranch, and many places in between as my car will take us anywhere you need to go!
