There’s been a noticeable shift in Texas housing—buyer activity is now at its lowest point since 2013. As someone who’s seen multiple market cycles firsthand, I’m watching this changing landscape with a careful eye. High mortgage rates and commercial real estate challenges are contributing to a surplus of homes, especially in metro areas where overbuilding has taken hold. This unique mix could result in significant price drops over the next 2–5 years. For those navigating the market—whether you’re managing luxury assets, considering a relocation, or evaluating investment opportunities—the next few years will require a nuanced, informed approach. My own experience rehabbing properties and managing portfolios has taught me that, in times of transition, having the right strategy is everything.
