The Future Looks Very Bright for Real Estate Values in Texas

Tue, 13 May 2008 08:55:23 -0500

The #1 factors influencing housing sales-- jobs and unemployment rates-are excellent for virtually every market in Texas. And mortgage rates remain near historical lows for qualified buyers.

CNNMoney.com reports that this market is on track to post the best returns on housing of any major U.S. city during the next two years. Researchers at Virginia Tech estimate DFW will add 6.4 million new people and 2.8 million units of housing over the next two decades.

In stark contrast to national media about conditions elsewhere, the Texas real estate market is rosy in practically every corner of the Lone Star State.

DFW/Arlington had the largest population gain of any U.S. metro area (US Census Bureau)
Hou/SugarLand/Baytown was 4^th; Austin/R.Rock 8^th; San Antonio 10^th (US Census Bureau)
Amarillo, Corpus Christi, Victoria and other mid-size Texas markets saw double-digit home price increases.
Houston and Dallas rank 1^st and 2^nd in having the most affordable median home prices in the 20 largest Metropolitan Statistical Area's (MSA) in the U.S.

Low labor costs, inexpensive and plentiful land, and an absence of heavy regulation and land-use controls all contribute to exceptional housing values in Texas. RECON (Real Estate Center at Texas A&M) predicts a dramatic increase in Houston's population by 2030 thanks to an abundance of jobs, low cost of living and affordable lifestyle.

According to Tierra Grande Magazine, noted authority on Texas real estate trends, our state's population and economy-as well as our housing and commercial real estate markets-are poised to explode in volume and prices. Unless something as catastrophic as the century should only get stronger.

Texas' current employment growth is roughly twice the national rate (and should continue)
Texas leads the nation in job creation, with Houston and Dallas at #1 and #2
Texas is the most housing-affordable high-growth state in the nation
By 2030, Texas is expected to add 13.6 million people (the equivalent of adding another DFW, Houston, San Antonio, and Corpus Christi)

The Texas real estate market is blessed with housing affordability, availability, extraordinary interest rates, job and population growth, and a climate attractive to new businesses and residents.
