Austin real estate news

Tarrytown, a cherished neighborhood in Austin, Texas, is experiencing a remarkable phase of growth and competitiveness in its real estate market. Known for its charming streets, historical significance, and close-knit community, Tarrytown has always been a desirable location for families and professionals alike. The recent data underscores this appeal, revealing significant trends that are shaping the market.

Unprecedented Growth in Median Sale Prices

In February 2024, Tarrytown witnessed an astonishing 32.7% year-over-year increase in the median sale price of homes, reaching $637,000. This surge far exceeds the national average, highlighting Tarrytown's allure in the Austin real estate landscape. Furthermore, the median sale price per square foot has escalated to $402, marking a 25.4% increase since last year. These figures not only signify a booming market but also reflect the high demand for properties in this prestigious Austin neighborhood.

Market Dynamics: Sales and Competition

Despite the significant jump in prices, Tarrytown's market remains fiercely competitive. On average, homes receive two offers and sell after 43 days on the market—a substantial decrease from 75 days last year. This acceleration in sales velocity is indicative of a very competitive market environment where well-priced homes attract multiple offers, often above the listing price. However, it's notable that the number of homes sold in February this year has halved compared to the previous year, suggesting a tightening of inventory that could be contributing to the competitive climate and upward price trajectory.

Migration and Relocation Trends

Tarrytown's demographic and migration trends provide insight into the neighborhood's evolving dynamics. While 70% of Tarrytown's homebuyers are looking to stay within the metropolitan area, there's a notable interest from outside metros, with 3% of homebuyers eyeing Tarrytown as their new home. Interestingly, cities like San Francisco, Springfield, and Lincoln are among the top origins for those considering a move to Tarrytown, emphasizing its national appeal.

Conversely, 30% of Tarrytown residents are exploring opportunities outside the neighborhood, with Miami, Philadelphia, and Washington being popular destinations. This migration pattern reflects a broader trend of mobility and relocation, influenced by various factors including lifestyle changes, employment opportunities, and the search for value in the real estate market.

Navigating Tarrytown's Market

For those interested in buying or selling in Tarrytown, understanding these market dynamics is crucial. Sellers can capitalize on the high demand and competitive landscape by presenting their properties in the best light and pricing strategically to attract multiple offers. Buyers, on the other hand, need to be prepared for a competitive market by having their financing in order and being ready to act quickly when they find the right property.

Looking Ahead

As Tarrytown continues to thrive and evolve, its real estate market remains a focal point of interest for both local and national buyers. The neighborhood's blend of historical charm, community atmosphere, and prime location within Austin ensures its ongoing desirability. Whether you're considering selling your home or searching for your dream property in Tarrytown, the current market conditions offer unique opportunities and challenges, underscoring the importance of informed decision-making and strategic planning.

Navigating Tarrytown's dynamic real estate market requires expertise and insight. If you're contemplating your next move in Tarrytown, reach out for professional guidance tailored to this unique and vibrant Austin neighborhood.

“I highly recommend Jonny as a realtor to help sell your home! He comes with all the skills and contacts (contractors, stagers, designers, etc.) to make the process successful. He is a great listener and highly responsive. We could not have asked more from a realtor to help us selling our first home. Thanks Tim!”

“My husband and I were the first time home buyers. We contacted Jonny just couple of months after moving to San Francisco. Simon really helped us to learn about different neighbourhoods in SF. He showed us all the apartments that we wanted to visit even the ones that we could not afford. He is a good negotiator and we end of buying an apartment below the asked price.”

“After meeting with a few real estate agents, we decided to choose Jonny for our home purchase and we were not disappointed. Tim was always a text or a phone call away and provided us with everything we needed and more. He was with us every step of the way during the experience and we couldn’t have asked for a better agent. He is extremely knowledgable of the current market landscape and helped us negotiate for an offer below asking in the San Francisco market (amazing right?!). He is kind, friendly and will always have your best interest in mind when he is assisting in your home purchase. We wholeheartedly believe that if we had chosen another real estate agent to work with we might not have been able to purchase our home since Tim brings a bunch of intangible skills to the table that other agents simply do not possess. We would highly recommend Tim to our friends and family and we will not think twice about working with him again in the future.”
