What it means for you.
FOR BUYERS
- ✦
Rising inventory means more options — but well-located Tarrytown and Bouldin Creek homes still move in under three weeks.
- ✦
Pre-approval is mandatory. Well-priced homes in core Austin neighborhoods draw multiple offers even in today's market.
- ✦
Interest rate moderation has brought buyers back from the sidelines. Competition is up from 2024 levels.
- ✦
The correction created a window. It isn't indefinite — and the best-located homes are already recapturing value.
FOR SELLERS
- ✦
Presentation matters more than it did in 2021. Buyers have real options now and they use them.
- ✦
Correct pricing is essential — overpriced homes accumulate days on market, and those days are visible to every buyer.
- ✦
Well-prepared homes in Tarrytown, Westlake Hills, and Old West Austin are still commanding strong terms.
- ✦
Motivated buyers — particularly relocating professionals — are actively in the market. The right listing captures them.
