Austin, Texas - Though most of the nation is experiencing a downturn in the housing market - Austin Real Estate seems to continue to buck the trend of decling home sales that is sweeping the nation, aided by a robust technology sector and affordability - Austin has only 3.2 months of unsold inventory - making it one of the tightest markets in the country. The low tax structure and pro-business climate makes Texas a destination for corporate relocation for firms that are striving to compete in the global marketplace, adding roughly 400,000 new residents each year.
Tech savy realtors, that are able to market to those relocating to Texas are making a mint off of the nations downturn. Christy Dixon from HomesATX, LLC, an Austin Real Estate Agency, isn't able to keep up with all the out of state leads she is recieving. "I'm getting 10-12 calls a week from serious out of state buyers that plan on purchasing a home in the next 60 days. In the past I was somewhat pessimistic about the amount of genuine leads we could recieve from the internet. But by optimizing our site to provide users with an easy to use interface and then working with Spider Juice Technologies on our on-line marketing strategy, we could hit our year end goals by July of this year."
