🧊 The Ice has Melted, Spring on the Way 🌱
The Oldham Group brings you Austin news, exciting events, homes for sales and uniquely fun things happening around greater Austin. Feel free to contact us at anytime to be added to our distribution list.
After this week’s ice storm, it might not feel like it, but Austin’s spring real estate market is right around the corner. Typically Austin experiences an uptick in sales volume from mid-February to July. These are the 4 things that buyers will be looking for in their next home.
1. LOCATION
Location is the single most important determination of value. Homes with close proximity to downtown Austin, on the water or located in coveted school districts remain some of the highest valued homes in our market.
2. VALUE
Homes in Austin hit all-time price records last year and have experienced a correction since that time. Today’s buyers are slowing entering the market, but are looking for value. They want to negotiate and some flexibility on contract terms.
3. FUNCTIONALITY
Larger homes with more functional spaces are highly sought after given that more people are working, exercising and studying from home. Features that command the extra dollars include gyms, pools, outdoor living areas, bars, and dedicated office space.
4. MOVE IN READY
Homes that are completely updated are commanding an extra premium because it’s difficult to find reliable contractors to do renovation work. Ask me how to leverage Compass Concierge to do any make-ready work before listing to give you the BEST opportunity for the HIGHEST price.
