Q. Why are there no addresses listed in your ads?

A.  In order to receive credit for leasing the property, we have to show you the property. In order to give you the most choices, we work all open listings, not just ours.(we work with well over 95% of the complexes in town) In some cases, we can meet you at the property to make it easy on you. Or in some situations (like a long distance, sight unseen rental) , register you ahead of time, so we would not have to be there, but we have to arrange this before you look at the property.

A. Can you send me a list of apartments in Austin?

Unfortunately there is no such thing as a true updated list of available Austin apartment rentals.  There are hundreds of rental management and private owners in town, without an MLS type system. Which is why we exist - because it is .a overwhelming task to do it yourself.  Therefore  we have no correlated list available that we can send you. You can always check our website for an updated selection (but it only lists a small percentage of what available apartments in Austin  we have) .  Anyone who says they have a list of apartments  actually has a limited database of the units - the ones that will work with them on a smaller commission when they "send" you to apartments on that list, without checking availability - MOST OF WHICH DO NOT HAVE AVAILABILITY OF UNITS MEETING YOUR CRITERIA.

The main reason a list wouldn't help you is that it doesn't show what is availableAvailability of units for a particular price, area, etc. literally change daily. Our job is to do the legwork for you, and find the best ones available using your criteria so you can pick from the top ones. Otherwise, you might as well use the yellow pages as a "list". We are full service professional  real estate agents, like Realtors

Q. How else can you help me?

  We can advise you on all aspects of your search, and find  those "hard to find" properties that have:
        
  •           Unique Floorplans - roommate plans, extra closet space,
  •            New Luxury properties, gated, energy efficient
  •            Big dog pet friendly communities including breed specific policies
  •             Move-in Specials - $0 move-in , 1,2 even 3 months Free
  •            Pre-leases and waiting lists
  •           Separate dining rooms
  •            Specific amenities - Gas cooking, dog parks, townhome style,  condo specs,  garages
  •            Unique Units or exteriors - lofts, townhouses, yards, duplexes       
  •            ASAP move-ins
  •            Short Term leases (and the ones with the smallest upcharges)
  •            Bus lines, estimated commuting times, maps
  •            Special issues - damaged credit

Austin Texas Apartment Market Report



Austin's apartment market on record setting hot streak
July, 2012

The Austin area apartment market is continuing on its hot streak, with rents & occupancies hitting the highest levels in 2 decades. The area's midyear apartment occupancy rate stood at 97.8%, said real estate consultant Charles Heimsath, president of Capitol Market Research. He said that's the highest rate since 1991, when he started surveying the Austin market.

The high occupancy is pushing rents up also They hit a record $953 per month That's a jump from a $900 average in June of last year. Although more than 10,000 more apartment units are under construction in the area, demand is still easily outpacing supply.

While landlords are raising rents, many tenants are facing sticker shock. Driven by job growth and a robust influx of newcomers — more than 50,000 a year — along with a recession-caused dearth of new units being built, the region's apartment market has become one of the nation's hottest over the past 2 years in terms of rising rents & occupancy. Experts expect the rental squeeze... and the escalating rents.. to continue through next year.

Austin's economy has fared better than most U.S. metro areas during the downturn, making it an attractive place for job seekers, including younger people who are likelier to rent. But even Austin wasn't spared from the recession and the ensuing financial constraints that made it virtually impossible to obtain financing in recent years for new projects, including apartments.

Last year, however, has seen lending loosen up somewhat, and that has led developers to put some stalled projects back on the front burner, or to plan or start new ones.

Heimsath's research shows 10,604 apartment units currently under construction, more than a tenfold increase from the 839 under construction in June of last year with an additional 8,800 planned for the next few years

New apartment construction in Austin "will be among the most aggressive seen anywhere across the country during the next couple of years," said Greg Willett, vice president of research and analysis at MPF Research,  whose research showed Austin's apartment occupancy at 95.6 % slightly lower than Heimsath's figure.

Heimsath said the market will remain "very undersupplied" for the rest of 2012. Like Willett, Heimsath said he thinks "we'll see a little bit of easing next year as new units get delivered to the market, but I see continued tight market conditions at least through the end of 2013."

Austin's apartment market still sizzling hot
2012

The Austin-area apartment market is hot these days, as heightened demand due to job and population growth plus a lag in new projects have combined to make it the hottest sector of the real estate market. The local Austin / Round Rock / Cedar Park apartment market will be the nation's No. 2 performer this year based on projected increases in rents and occupancies, just  behind San Francisco, CA according to MPF Research,

Capitol Market Research predicts that the Austin area apartment market will be on the upswing for at least another 2 to 3 years It's data, which tracks 145,000 units in Austin and other areas, including Round Rock, Pflugerville, Cedar Park, Leander and Kyle, shows that the region ended 2011 with 95.9% of its apartments occupied, up from 94.8 percent at the end of 2010.
The all-time high — 97.6 percent occupancy — was reached in December 2000

Average rents across all unit types — 1, 2 and 3-bedrooms — climbed  last year to $913/mo, compared with $853 in 2010. Rents for 1 bedroom units saw the biggest jump, soaring to $878/moas of December, 2011 compared with $731 at the end of 2010 MPF forecasts rent growth of about 5.5% in 2013 and about 4% in 2014. Forecasts show Austin will have demand for about 4,800 apartment units this year. About 3,100 new units are expected to be completed this year, followed by 4,900 in 2013. Thousands more units are in the planning stages, bu some of those projects could have problems obtaining financing.
