Jarrod Covey Austin's Real Estate Market throughout the COVID-19 Pandemic

A look into Austin MSA related to real estate before & after the COVID-19 pandemic, and into the future.I wrote a similar paper almost a year ago today, good cross reference for this read.Leading up to and continuing through the “Stay at Home” order, which went into effect Tuesday, March 24th — the sellers market went from red hot to, “what do we do next.”Investment buyers across the board repositioned themselves — with iBuyers like Zillow and OpenDoor stopping purchasing completely, large funds lowered buy price requirements by up to 10%, and local investors were waiting for the dust to settle for the most part.A 10% drop in buy price standards is substantial and a direct reflection of how low demand was in mid-March through April.Speaking from a realtors perspective, throughout all of this and despite realtors being deemed essential, the COVID-19 etiquette/standards took some time to develop.Every governing body related to real estate was looking into and implementing best standards and practices for real estate related job functions.As a result, listing activity was down immediately — April saw a drop of 21.6% in number of sales year-over-year, while May saw the biggest dip in year-over-year sales at 29.2%.
Damon Aniton House hacking for the long term

So it makes sense to choose a home that will make a good rental right from the start.Common factors that real estate investors consider when choosing a good rental property include:The neighborhood, which will influence the type of tenants the home will attract and the rent they can afford to pay.Property tax rates, which vary widely from one place to the next and can have a significant impact on the total return of a rental home.School district quality, crime rate, and overall neighborhood ratings affect occupancy levels and the overall value of the home.Job market and population growth are two indicators real estate investors consider to help predict the future demand from tenants for rental housing.Housing Price Index (HPI) and Housing Affordability Index (HAI) are two other metrics investors use to anticipate rental property demand, because when home prices are unaffordable more people may choose to rent rather than own.Average rents and rent growth also affect where to buy a home to house hack, since the rental income will be used to pay for part of the mortgage and other expenses.
