Happy Thursday, Y’all!
School is over, the kids are in camp, and I can't believe it's summer already! With this rainy weather, it has certainly snuck up on us, but I'm sure the heat will be upon us soon. I think it's safe to say we would all enjoy a little more sunshine these upcoming weeks.
Even with the heat, I love summer in Austin. There’s always an endless amount of things to do and enjoy — live music, outdoor festivals, swimming holes, hiking spots, pools, spacious patios, parks, farmers markets…the list goes on. My family and I sure are ready to finally enjoy
the ATX-style summer that we missed out on last year!
If you follow along with Ellevé on Instagram (at @elleve_property_group_atx), we will be sharing tons of local events and activities to enjoy all summer long. Think of us as not only your go-to group of trusted Realtors, but also your go-to resource for all things Austin. We’ll also, of course, continue our top picks for weekend fun each Thursday here (see below).
So while you all get ready for more poolside afternoons, music festivals or fun in the park this new season, just know that my team and I are still here doing what we do best — helping our clients successfully buy and sell homes in Austin’s competitive housing market. We know what it takes to win! If you or someone you know is ready to turn some real estate goals into reality, then let's dive in together this summer and make it happen.

Austin Ranks High for Top Cities with the
Newest Homes
|
Another achievement for Austin! CultureMap Austin recently put out an article on the top U.S. cities with the newest homes, according to Homes.com's latest rankings, and Austin made the #4 spot with 34.6 percent of listings being built in 2000 or later.
The other three cities that beat out Austin include:
-
New Orleans, 40.8 percent
-
Raleigh, North Carolina, 38.4 percent
-
Nashville, Tennessee, 35.4 percent
Other Texas cities ranked high as well, with Houston at #8 (29.3 percent) and Dallas at #17 (23.5 percent).
"
It’s no wonder that these Texas markets stand so tall on the newer-home ladder. According to the National Association of Home Builders, the Austin area ranked No. 5 for most permits issued last year for new-home construction (21,653). Houston had more than anywhere else in the U.S. (48,208), and Dallas-Fort Worth ranked second (43,884)," says CultureMap Austin.
