Owning a home is not the finish line. It is one of the tools that helps you get there. 🏡

There is this idea that buying a house means you have finally made it. And while it is a huge milestone worth celebrating, the real power of homeownership is what it builds over time. Equity. Stability. A monthly payment that works for you instead of your landlord. The ability to leverage that asset when the time is right.

The people who build real wealth through real estate are not always the ones who had the most to start with. They are the ones who got in early, stayed in, and let time do the work.

If you have been waiting until you feel like you have made it to start thinking about buying, this is your sign to flip that around.

Barton Hills might be one of the most special neighborhoods in all of Austin. 🌿

It sits right on the edge of the Barton Creek Greenbelt, which means trails, swimming holes, and nature are literally steps from your front door. And yet you are minutes from South Congress, Zilker Park, Barton Springs Pool, and downtown.

The housing stock is a mix of mid-century ranches, updated bungalows, and newer modern builds. Homes typically range from the $600s to well over $2M depending on size, views, and how close you are to the greenbelt. The median is sitting around $800K to $950K right now.

What makes Barton Hills different is the feel. It is quiet and tree lined in a way that does not feel like the middle of a major city. But it absolutely is. That combination is rare and it is why people who buy here tend to stay.

Ever notice a listing drop its price by $100 and think... that's it? 👀

That is not an accident. When a seller lowers the price, even by a tiny amount, it triggers a new notification to everyone who has saved or favorited that listing. Suddenly it pops back up in your feed like it is brand new.

It is a sneaky little marketing move to get eyes back on a home that may have been sitting for a while. Now you know. 🏡

Comment W**E CLOSET to get the listing. 🏡

We toured this one and had to share it. Roma Homes does thoughtful design really well and Unit 1 on Garwood is a great example of that.
10 foot ceilings, an open main level that actually flows, a reading nook upstairs, a dedicated workspace, and a primary suite tucked away for real privacy. The side yard and private driveway are what really set it apart though. Outdoor space and separation like that is genuinely hard to find in East Austin.

Beautiful mature tree lined street, steps from Flitch Coffee, Kinda Tropical, the hike and bike trail, and HEB on 7th.
This one just feels good to be in. 🌿

Meet Finesse. 🏡✨

Before real estate, Finesse was in hospitality. And while she did not realize it at the time, she was building exactly the skills that would make her exceptional in this industry. The ability to connect with people, manage moving parts, and make everyone around her feel taken care of.

She brings that same energy to every client she works with. Whether you are a first time buyer, a renter, relocating to Austin, or a longtime local ready to make a move, Finesse shows up for you with luxury level service no matter your price point. She negotiates hard and genuinely believes that real estate is one of the most powerful tools everyday people have to build wealth.

And yes, she also knows where to find the best tacos, seafood, and fresh pressed juices in Austin. 🌮🦞🥤

We could not be more excited to welcome her to the Open House Austin team. 🎉

Austin is officially one of the top 10 buyer’s markets in the country and the data is hard to ignore. 🏡

Here is what the numbers look like right now:
📉 Home prices are down ~6% year over year
📉 Down nearly 25% from the 2022 peak
🏷️ Metro median sits around $412,000
⚖️ More than twice as many sellers as buyers
✅ 82% of homes sold below asking price last month

That is real negotiating power.

Yes, rates are still higher than we would all like. But here is the thing. You can always refinance later when rates drop. And in a market like this, sellers are often willing to buy down your rate or cover closing costs, which changes the math significantly. If you have cash available, there are strategies worth exploring there too.

The market is in your favor right now. The question is whether you are ready to use it.

At our free How to Buy a House workshop we get into all of this. What you need saved, what programs exist, how to think about rates, and what the process actually looks like from start to finish.

New builds don't usually look like this. went a different direction with the colors and design on this one and honestly it works.

Three bedrooms, a dedicated workspace, a private garage, real yard space, and a true pantry in under 1,400 square feet. Nothing feels like a compromise.

Minutes from Flitch Coffee, Kinda Tropical, and the hike and bike trail.
