Austin Real Estate Update

A report released by RealtyTrac in February 2011 stated that foreclosure homes accounted for nearly 26% of all U.S. residential sales during 2010. 

The report also revealed that the average sales price of a foreclosure was more than 28% below the average sales price of properties not in foreclosure.

Based on current statistics, foreclosures continue to represent around 25% of all U.S. residential sales and continue to sell significantly below the average sales price of properties not in foreclosure.

Based on these results, though home inventory especially forclosures continue to disappear, home values should not see much of an appreciation for quite some time given the distressed priced foreclosured home sales.

The best part is that the Austin, Cedar Park, Leander, Pflugerville and Round Rock, Texas real estate market is one of the most stable and should be one of the first areas to see the most improvement the soonest.
