Hot Rods Hit SoCo

by Doreen Zelma
April 6th, 2011

Last weekend, South Congress Avenue was once again transported back in time for the 10th Annual Lonestar Round Up.  The event brings visitors from all over world, and hot rods, classic and custom cars from all over the country.

The SoCo area in Austin, already exuding a 50’s vibe, becomes a hot spot as car enthusiasts line the streets to view the cars and take in some live music.

SoCo Real Estate Market

Let’s take a look around the SoCo area of South Congress, which will include the Travis Heights and Bouldin areas.

The picture shows a ½ mile radius setting Doc’s Bar & Grill and Jo’s in the middle.  There are currently 14 homes for sale.  Available houses for purchase in this area range in age from 90 years to newly built.  List prices range from a $299,000 for a tear down/needs TLC, to $717,500 for new construction.  Average time on the market, is currently 77 days.

I support local Austin, after all I think it’s only neighborly.

Austin Market Spotlights

by Doreen Zelma
October 22nd, 2010

I have selected some random subdivisions, zip codes in Austin and cities surrounding it, to provide some current real estate market data.  If there is an area or neighborhood you would like spotlighted -please let me know.

Overall, the Austin market is strong.  Areas averaging 3 months or less are considered to be seller’s markets.  Four to six months are considered neutral markets.  Six months or more time on the market is considered to be buyer’s markets.  The exceptions to this are:   luxury properties over $800,000, because there are less buyers and new construction where the projects are actively marketed before or during building.

78704 Property Tour

by Doreen Zelma
June 27th, 2010

Last week I went on a tour of homes in zip code 78704.  The tour covered Travis Heights to Barton Hills.  I saw some pretty interesting properties including a 1904 farmhouse which was moved here from Trall, Texas.  If you like older homes, it was absolutely amazing from the beaded trim on the doors, to the soaring ceilings.  It is truly something special.  Here is the link, along with some of the other properties I viewed. 78704 homes The pictures do not do the farmhouse justice.

On Sunday, June 27th, I will be holding one of the homes open on the tour, from 1 – 4pm.  500 E Mary street is located in the Travis Heights area of Austin, and has 3 bedrooms, 2 baths and is 1,394 square feet (tax record.)  The house sits on a large corner lot with live oaks trees and carport. Click the tour link above for more details.
