Austin, Texas Market Update | August 2023
We have recently concluded our three-day Mega Camp event at the Austin Convention Center, where we had the privilege of networking with over 12,000 top Keller Williams agents. I'd like to share with you some insights that Gary Keller, the founder of Keller Williams, said.
What Gary referred to as a "rolling recession" essentially indicates that anything that has to do with money and finance is undergoing a period of readjustment.
Signs of this readjustment have already emerged. Property prices, for instance, have witnessed a decline of approximately 14%, and sales have experienced a reduction of around 20%. Nonetheless, amidst these shifts, there is an encouraging development. An upward trajectory is evident, fueled in part by a growing familiarity with prevailing interest rates. This, in turn, has prompted individuals to explore innovative avenues for navigating the complexities of real estate transactions. Essentially, people are getting used to the current interest rates, and they're finding new ways to buy and sell homes.
