U.S. Sellers Adjust Prices for Autumn
As we transition into autumn, I’m seeing a familiar story play out across the country: median listing prices per square foot have dipped about 2% year-over-year in mid-Q3. That marks a ten-month stretch of annual declines, as sellers recalibrate their expectations after several years of rapid appreciation. For many of you—whether buying or selling in Central Texas or along the Coastal Bend—these shifts reflect a changed landscape. Property owners are adjusting their asking prices, and with mortgage rates remaining elevated plus some economic uncertainty, buyers are understandably more measured and deliberate when exploring their options.

From my three decades in real estate, I know that these moments create opportunities. Sellers are increasingly open to negotiation, aiming to secure qualified buyers before the usual winter slowdown. If you’re pre-approved and ready, the growing housing supply can give you the leverage to compare homes, revisit neighborhoods that once seemed out of reach, and secure more favorable terms. My approach has always been rooted in honest guidance and creative strategy—tailored to your goals, whether you’re moving across town or investing in a new venture. Inspired by your move, driven by your goals.

First-time homebuyers could get $50,000 under new bill
For those stepping into homeownership for the first time, a new bill could be a game changer—a proposal is on the table to provide up to $50,000 in federal matching funds to help with down payments. The structure is a 5-to-1 match, meaning a buyer’s savings could stretch much further, provided they complete counseling and select a home at or below the median price. While the intention is to make homeownership more accessible, there’s debate: some worry this might drive up prices if housing supply doesn’t keep pace. As someone who has guided buyers across Central Texas and the Coastal Bend for decades, I see how programs like this could open doors for many families, though it’s important to weigh both the opportunities and the broader market impact. Helping clients navigate these moments—balancing dreams, budgets, and changing market dynamics—is at the heart of what I do.

Cities with the fastest-growing home prices in Texas
As someone who has worked alongside buyers, sellers, and investors across Central Texas and the Coastal Bend for over three decades, I’ve seen firsthand how Texas home values can transform communities and families. Lately, we’re witnessing remarkable appreciation: smaller Texas cities have risen over 13%, and even our major metros are now home to multi-million dollar properties. In some pockets, prices have jumped more than 40% in just five years. This kind of growth speaks to both the opportunities and the challenges in our statewide market. Whether you’re exploring residential, commercial, or investment properties, understanding these trends is crucial for making confident decisions. My commitment remains providing personalized advocacy and creative solutions, always inspired by your move and driven by your goals.

How Stable Mortgage Rates Empower Buyers and Sellers Through 2026
With average 30-year fixed mortgage rates climbing above 7%—the highest we’ve seen since January 2025—many in Central Texas and the Coastal Bend are wondering what this means for their next move. Forecasts indicate these elevated rates may persist through 2026, yet determined buyers and sellers are still making things happen despite affordability challenges. Over my 33 years as a REALTOR® and broker, I’ve seen that preparation is key: a solid financial plan and openness to flexible loan options can make all the difference in a shifting market. Whether you’re looking to buy, sell, invest, or reimagine your next chapter, thoughtful strategy and honest guidance remain essential. Inspired by your move, driven by your goals—that’s how I approach every opportunity.

United States Homebuyer Affordability Outlook
As someone who’s navigated the Texas real estate market for over three decades, I’m always tracking the bigger forces shaping homebuyer affordability—because whether you’re moving across Bastrop or settling in the Coastal Bend, national trends inevitably touch our local experience. Right now, three key drivers are at play: lower mortgage rates, steady income growth, and a noticeable slowdown in home-price increases. True, lasting relief for buyers doesn’t come from any one factor alone. Instead, it’s the combination of more manageable financing costs, rising earnings, and less aggressive price growth that moves the needle on what’s possible for today’s buyers. The affordability index reflects this by weighing monthly payments against income—so improvements come from lower loan amounts, better rates, or higher earnings, while affordability can slip if payments start to outpace what buyers are bringing home. For those keeping an eye on the market, the most telling indicators ahead will be shifts in mortgage rates, where incomes are headed, and whether the recent cooling in price growth continues. My approach is always to keep clients informed and empowered, helping you read these signals with confidence as you chart your next move. Inspired by Your Move. Driven by Your Goals.

New Homes Offer Better Value Nationwide
It’s not every day we see new construction homes priced as the better value, but that’s exactly what’s happening across the country. Newly built homes now have a median sale price of $205 per square foot, compared to $212 for existing homes—a shift that’s giving buyers more options than we’ve seen in years past. In about one-third of major U.S. markets, new homes are no longer carrying the price premium they once did. Builders are adjusting quickly, with price reductions and creative incentives, especially in areas where inventory is higher and competition has ramped up.

For those navigating the Central Texas and Coastal Bend markets, this opens up real opportunities—particularly in communities with ample supply where negotiation is back on the table. After three decades guiding buyers and sellers in residential, new construction, and beyond, I’ve seen how market dynamics like these can create real value for clients willing to look at all angles. Ultimately, increasing housing inventory is still the most reliable path to improving affordability, though permitting slowdowns could impact that progress. If you’re considering your next move, it’s worth exploring where new construction might fit into your plans. Inspired by Your Move. Driven by Your Goals.

New-Build Buyer Survey: What Americans Want in a New Construction Home
Over the decades, I’ve seen firsthand how new construction homes capture the imagination of buyers across Central Texas and the Coastal Bend. In fact, 80% of Americans are drawn to new builds, largely because they offer fewer repairs, opportunities for customization, contemporary design, and impressive energy efficiency. The survey highlights what I often hear from my clients: spacious kitchens, inviting outdoor living areas, abundant natural light, and energy-saving features top the wish list. With my background in marketing and decades of experience—especially with new construction—I’m dedicated to helping you weigh these options and find a home that aligns perfectly with your goals.

The Housing Market Is Getting More Expensive to Wait Out
As someone who's guided clients through the ups and downs of Central Texas and Coastal Bend real estate for over three decades, I've seen how timing your purchase can make a real difference. Right now, higher borrowing costs are making it more expensive for buyers to wait on the sidelines—those who delay may find that monthly payments increase if rates remain high. And while some may be hoping for a drop in home prices to balance things out, those price decreases typically aren’t enough to offset elevated financing costs. In today’s market, waiting for a 'better deal' doesn’t guarantee a lower overall cost.

That said, there are still negotiation opportunities in certain areas—especially where increased inventory means sellers are competing for your offer. My approach has always been to look at the full picture: the cost of financing, current pricing, and where there’s room to negotiate, not just interest rates alone. Every move is unique, and my goal is to help you weigh all your options with honest, personalized guidance. Inspired by Your Move. Driven by Your Goals.
