Texas Property Insider- Austin Real Estate and Texas Coastal Real Estate Blog

Welcome to Texas Property Insider. The purpose of this blog is to provide accurate and helpful information about market trends and issues important to property owners in Central Texas and on the Texas Coast. You hear a lot of talk out there. You see the statistics, read the stories in the newspaper and you see practitioners regurgitate those same stories and statistics. There is more information available then ever before. But why is it, even after all of the stories and pundits have had their say, you still feel you can’t grasp what’s really happening in the real estate market?


There is a lot more to it than simple statistics and market info. These numbers are helpful and vitally important, but if taken at face value they can be misleading, even deceiving. As Mark Twain once said, “There are lies, damned lies and then there are statistics.” I created this blog to pull back the curtain on Texas real estate, interpret the market information and present it to you in a format that is both pithy and easy to digest.

Help Fix Austin’s Transportation Problems

The Austin Mobility Program is holding six public forums throughout the city February 8-11 to get public input on how to fix the city’s transportation problems.

Your attendance and participation is needed to represent the REALTOR® perspective on this issue.

"Whether one uses roads, bikes, sidewalks, or transit, we all have a stake in an efficient, sustainable transportation system," said Rob Spillar, director of the Austin Transportation Department.

By voicing your opinions you will help shape near-term and long-term investments in our transportation system.

The City will use the citizen input gathered at the forums to help identify projects with the highest priority. At a future mobility bond election, larger projects will be considered.
