Austin - No Longer a Well-Kept Secret!
A recent Austin Towers article points out the fact that the huge number of top ten lists, shout-outs in business magazines, positive press coverage, and explosive growth rate in Austin all point to an undeniable fact: Austin, TX is no longer a sleep college town, but rather a thriving top-tier city that is going to continue to attract huge new residents in the coming years. Austin has grown rapidly during the last decade (as have the surrounding areas such a Pflugerville and Round Rock which have both been among the fastest growing cities in the US in the past five years), and people coming to Austin are eager to take advantage of the fantastic job market, stable real estate prices, quality of life, and more. How does this relate to the UT real estate market? Investing in UT real estate isn’t an excellent idea just because of steady appreciation, consistently high occupancy, and unparalleled location, but also because as Austin continues to grow and true central city density develops, property is going to be at an even greater premium that’s closer to Downtown, parks, major thoroughfares, and retail/dining. Sound familiar? That’s UT Austin, specifically the North Campus and West Campus areas (you can search for properties here or learn more about the neighborhoods here), and West Campus Living is here to help you make the smart move today. Read on to learn more about some of the recent attention Austin has received and some of the ways in which it’s going to be one of the most important American cities of the next two decades.
