Home prices around Austin are still wild, but the story isn’t what you might expect. While the pandemic sent prices soaring, most cities in the Austin metro area actually saw home values drop over the past year—even in places like Buda, Liberty Hill, and Georgetown. But zoom out five years, and nearly every spot is up by 20% or more. West Lake Hills and Lost Creek top the charts, with typical homes now well over $1 million. What’s your take—are these price swings making it harder or easier for folks to stay in the area? #RealEstate #AustinRealEstate #HomePrices
