Winter is here! The Austin, Texas area is pretty well shut down due to ice on the roads.  If you are in this area, I hope you enjoy the day whether you stay at home by a fire and watch a movie, or have to spend a little time working. 

The 2007 market has started with a bang!  It's a little easier to document two weeks into the year because sales are literally double, compared to the first two weeks of 2006.  That is a small window to compare of course, but it's a start, and a better start often means a better year.

Since the number of homes that have been placed on the market is slightly less, the result would be less inventory and a stronger market regarding pricing and values.

I certainly cannot predict a stronger real estate market in Austin, Round Rock, Georgetown, Leander, Cedar Park, Pflugerville and other areas, from only two weeks of statistical information, but it does follow a continuing trend.  The Austin, Texas real estate market in 2007 is predicted to be stronger than previous years based on many sources of information, and the first two weeks support that.
