The way we have been looking forward to this for SO long!!!
We officially sold our rental property in New Braunfels and the feeling of relief + excitement is over the moon 🚀
As much as I love this house, it has totally put us through the ringer (& I’m happy to share any of my experiences with those that are looking to be an STR landlord)
We have 2 (long-term) rental homes in South Austin that have been GREAT, & I think we will stay put for a while. Not trying to deter anyone from investing but I will say - operating a short term rental is not for the faint of heart. Maybe when we don’t have 3 kids under age 5, or better yet, when we’re retired😆 we’ll take a stab at it again.
Happy closing day!!!! 🎊

Here’s your annual reminder to protest your property taxes!
*Deadline is May 15th*
1️⃣ Go to your county’s appraisal district website (Travis CAD, Hays CAD, Williamson CAD, etc)�2️⃣ Search your property�3️⃣ Look at the Assessed Value for this year �4️⃣ Ask yourself: Would I sell my home today for that amount?�5️⃣ If the value looks too high, you may want to file a protest!�6️⃣ Deadline is May 15th…don’t wait!�
📩 DM me if you need help pulling comps or deciding whether to protest.
If you decide to protest, you can either do it yourself, or hire a pro. (I personally think it’s worth hiring a pro)

Okay but for real… here’s my actual advice:
1. Offering strategy matters
Offering way under asking can work in some situations… but not blindly. A reasonable offer is based on comps, days on market, and seller motivation. I don’t usually suggest making your initial offer completely offensive to the seller unless you’re okay with potentially losing out on the house.
2. Never skip the inspection.
Inspections are there to protect you. Even during the crazy covid days when people would waive their inspection just to get the winning bid….🫥 I would never advise my client to do that. Even if the seller already has the home pre-inspected, *always* get your own!
3. Just because you’re approved doesn’t mean you should spend it all.
Your max approval ≠ your comfort zone. You still need room for life… travel, kids, emergencies, furniture, all of it. The right budget is the one that feels good monthly, not just on paper.
Real estate advice on the internet can be questionable and/or overwhelming! Make sure you have someone helping you make decisions based on your goals, not just trends.
& if buying is on your radar this year, send me a DM, I’d love to see how I can help!
