🏡 Austin 2026 Real Estate Market Update
Hey Austin! If you’ve been watching the market, you’ve probably noticed things feel a little different this year, and you’re right.

As of late May 2026, Austin’s median home prices are ranging between $426,000 and $530,000, depending on the neighborhood and property type. We’re seeing more inventory than we have in years, which means homes are taking longer to sell and buyers finally have some real negotiating room.

This shift is creating exciting opportunities:
• More homes to choose from
• Sellers being more flexible on price, repairs, and closing costs
• Better chances for buyers to get into desirable areas like Zilker, Mueller, Travis Heights, or the growing suburbs without overpaying

Whether you’re a first-time buyer looking to finally make a move, a family wanting more space, or a homeowner thinking about selling, the current market rewards those who are prepared and working with someone who knows the local data inside and out.

I’ve been helping clients navigate these exact conditions, finding strong deals for buyers and positioning homes to still sell at top value for sellers.

🐝 Dreaming of a little land in Hays County?
Your future property could do more than give you space, it could qualify for valuable ag valuation through beekeeping too. 🌻🍯

We started bee farming 5 years ago for this very reason… and now we also enjoy honey produced right on our own land. 🤍

From Driftwood to Wimberley, Kyle to San Marcos - acreage living in Central Texas just hits different. 🌅🌾

Don’t Let Your Home’s Appreciation Cost You! 🏡

Did you know the government essentially pays you to move? It’s true! Many homeowners are sitting on a goldmine of appreciation, but there’s a catch: after a certain point, that appreciation starts getting taxed.

Here’s the deal: you can exclude up to $250,000 (single) or $500,000 (married) of capital gains on your appreciated home. Beyond that, you’re looking at capital gains taxes. If your home’s value has soared past these thresholds, you’re effectively losing money by staying put.

It’s time to reset your base! By selling and reinvesting, you can lock in your gains tax-free (up to the exclusion limits) and start fresh with a new cost basis. This isn’t just about moving; it’s about smart financial planning and maximizing your assets.

Don’t let your hard-earned equity erode due to taxes. Let’s talk about how you can leverage this powerful strategy to your advantage. Call me today to explore your options and make your home’s appreciation work for you!
