If you’re like me, scoring a great deal is like hitting the jackpot, especially when it comes to significant investments like purchasing a new home. In 2024, my team and I have been thrilled to facilitate incredible new construction deals for our clients in Austin. Let’s take a glimpse into the remarkable opportunities we’ve secured for five different clients across various price points and locations.
The Savvy Investor
Our first client, an investor residing in the Canyon Lake area, sought affordable homes under 0,000, ideally near Austin. Despite initial skepticism, we unearthed a gem—a new construction neighborhood bordering San Marcos and New Braunfels. With homes priced in the upper twos to low threes, our client snagged a deal at $310,000, receiving $30,000 in concessions. Additionally, they enjoyed perks like waived closing costs, an appliance package, and even managed to acquire a second property in the same community, all within budget.
A New Beginning for Newlyweds
A couple relocating from Minnesota desired their first home together in Austin, with a budget under $400,000. We found them a stunning Chesmar home in Kyle, originally listed at $380,000. Negotiating skillfully, we secured the property for $350,000, supplemented by $10,000 in lender credits. With a high-quality finish and a cozy fireplace, they obtained their dream home well within their budget.
Elevating Lifestyle in Lake Travis
Venturing into higher price brackets, our third client sought a luxurious abode in Lake Travis. Relocating from Chicago, they fell in love with a breathtaking new Mark home in Sweetwater. Despite its allure, we negotiated an additional $40,000 off the list price and obtained $20,000 in lender credits. With a panoramic view and imminent market demand, this investment promises substantial equity gains.
Upsizing Dreams: A Million-Dollar Investment
Local clients with a budget of $1 million aimed to upsize their living space in Sweetwater and Lake Travis. Opting for a custom-built Chesmar home, they capitalized on exclusive perks including a greenbelt lot and personalized design choices. With generous incentives totaling $95,000, they’re poised to create their dream home tailored to their growing family’s needs.
Navigating Affordability with Precision
Our final client is deliberating over a to-be-built David Weekley home in Provence, aiming to stay under $650,000. With employee discount pricing offering a substantial 40% off, coupled with a $5,000 lender credit, they stand to save a remarkable $45,000 on their new home. Embracing this opportunity, they’ll secure a premium property well within their budget.
Austin’s new construction market presents unparalleled opportunities across diverse price ranges. While current incentives abound, the dynamic nature of the market suggests a surge in prices as we approach the busy season. Thus, now is the optimal time to capitalize on these deals before they diminish.
