Renting a property in Austin may be more difficult than purchasing a property in 2023, according to Rent Cafe
The Austin rent market looks more competitive than the home purchase market as we move into 2023.

The world’s largest 3D-printed neighborhood is coming to Georgetown in 2023! The new development, Wolf Ranch, will consist of 100 single-story homes that will be printed onsite using concrete material and advanced robotics, according to CNN. Lennar Homes and ICON, a Texas based company that will bring the 3D-printing background, are teaming up to complete the project. They will begin taking home reservations early next year.
The concept of 3D-printed homes and buildings have been around for decades, but steeply rose in popularity back in 2015.

As we all know, rent for Austin area apartments have been soaring. Young adults are looking into purchasing their first homes. Right now is the perfect time to buy. It's a process that can be stressful for first-time homebuyers. Young millennials have backed off the idea of purchasing their first home since the high pandemic prices.
People are growing frustrated with paying a large amount of rent to an apartment. If you do the research though, you might be able to find paying a mortgage is a better option.
“It can hinder the potential buyer's ability to save, they’re going to be spending a higher proportion of their income on repaying that debt than a household that doesn’t otherwise have that debt," said Clare Losey with the Texas Real Estate Research Center.
“The market is slower than we have seen in a few years and there’s more inventory, more homes to choose from. So, what this means for a buyer is that they face less competition as they’re...

Homes are still selling close to list price, which is great news for buyers and healthy for our housing market.

There have been more signs of relief for the Austin housing market. The latest monthly report from Austin Board of Realtors, released Tuesday, August 16, offers indications that the market is continuing to stabilize.
There are still new records to report, but “In every aspect of our market," says Cord Shiflet, 2022 ABoR president, in a release, "Realtors are seeing positive signs that Austin’s housing market continues to normalize.”
One of the most promising signs is an explosion of inventory in the Austin-Round Rock metro area. In July 2022, the region's housing inventory reached 2.7 months — the highest level seen since November 2018, ABOR notes, and an increase from the 2.1 months reported...
