The area is growing fast, due to the expansion of the Local college extension campus being building downtown.

Until the celebrities that fly around in their private jets, are chauffeured around in their limousines, water their expansive yards of their mansions stop with their foolish lobbying of their fans to pass policies that have NO EFFECT on the celebrities but is carried on the backs of the working class, nothing will change.

We have the capability to handle this massive expansion plan and are always looking for new connections and investors even though the upper tiers are Invite only...

We are late expansion, early hypersupply. 

Set realistic goals and try to be disciplined and hit them, this way you will have a much better chance at knowing whether buying a 45k car makes sense or not.In 5-10 years I see myself as an owner of a (hopefully) successful business, my income goal at that time realistically is in the 300-500k range, at age 35 or so I'll probably be looking to start my family, and in terms of real estate I'll be looking to buy the building I practice in as well as any subsequent buildings during expansion of the business. 

Interesting you mentioned the next Austin, I feel that the NC Triangle Research Park area (Raleigh, Durham) is a few years behind Austin in terms of tech company expansion, and RE prices is a bit cheaper than Austin. 

Take a year and 1- listen to a BP Show per day, 2-cut your living expenses as much as you can believe it or not you can find $1,500/month by reducing rent & car & cutting luxury expanses and in a year you will have $18,000 - this will suck but it’s an investment!!

@Anthony Holloway I recommend reviewing where people are moving to and which markets are in expansion.

Howeverall plumbing is laid and the slap is poured over it thus it can be very expensive to repairThere are areas where the soil is said to be "massively expansive" and it expands or contracts with water. 

Recovery, Expansion, and Hypersupply.
