Austin, Texas Weekly Real Estate Market Update - September 13, 2024

 

 

Residential real estate inventory increased during the first week of September - more listings went on the market than the previous week, but there were fewer new contracts, closings, and properties withdrawn or expired from the market. Personally, this past week I had a listing close and a buyer go under contract, so I'm curious to see if the arrows have changed direction! Reach out to me if you'd like to know which way they are pointing in your particular zip code around the Austin, TX area.

Austin, Texas Weekly Real Estate Market Update - September 6, 2024

I'm not sure where August went! I apologize for not keeping up with posting the market stats here. This has been a weird summer market in the Austin area for sure. But I'm back to posting the stats!

In both the city of Austin and the 78645 zip code (the Northshore of Lake Austin) inventory dropped last week. Fewer new listings, more contracts, more closings and more listings expired. For sellers that means less competition. For buyers that means less to choose from!

As interest rates drop, buyers will find they have more competition on houses they like, and sellers will be able to ask higher prices again. Keep that in mind if you are a buyer who has been waiting for the rates to drop before making a move!

20101 FM 1431, Lago Vista TX - 18+ Commercial Acres

 

On a hill overlooking FM 1431, the main artery running along the northshore of Lake Travis from Round Rock to Marble Falls and beyond, there are 18+ acres waiting for a business that needs great exposure.

This property sits between Jonestown and Lago Vista near the entrance of The Hollows, a master-planned lakefront/resort community that is booming with new construction right now as buyers flock to the beauty of the Texas Hill Country and Lake Travis. 

Lago Vista, Jonestown, and Point Venture - the small towns that for the Northshore of Lake Travis community - have all seen a crazy amount of new construction and demand for housing. 

The property has a temporary zoning designation right now, just waiting for the buyer with a vision to let the city of Lago Vista know what they plan to do. Here is more information:

 

• $650,000 Lago Vista city limits Zoned temporary – buyer can choose; seller didn’t designate when city annexed. (TR-1)
• 18.837 acres – 3 parcels Hill country and potential lake views
• Electricity on property, 3 phase Lago required to provide water and sewer, but Jonestown water also not far away and available; Hydrant is 300 feet away. Lago provides up 250 ft. 1431
• Frontage belongs to the state, but access has been granted for right turn lane exit. Can also be accessed from Old Burnet Rd.
• “Buffer/transition” area may be required between it and adjacent residential property (Professional office, apartments or even just thickly planted and preserved open space strategically located to protect the existing development from adverse impacts associated with commercial uses from things like parking lots, headlights after dark, noise, delivery trucks, increased traffic, etc.
• Per city development office, getting approval for subdivision might be more time-consuming because of the absence of utilities than for other commercial uses, so that probably wouldn't be the best use of the property.
