The Westlake / Eanes Real Estate Broker Agent Property Tour Review. Features an Austin Silent Market Active MLS listing; 2705 Stratford Drive for Sale. 1.18.2023

 


I personally went, hosted 2705 Stratford Drive and previewed every single property on this morning's WESTLAKE Property Tour. For fellow Broker & Agents it meets weekly on Wednesday 9:30 AM @ the Thundercloud Subs, next to Summer Moon Coffee in the Walsh Tarlton Bee Caves Road Commercial Shopping Center. 

As you can see, the cheapest property was asking 1.1 Million and the most expensive acreage residential acreage home  was asking 7 million. 

Basically Westlake is not affordable. I'd characterize it as a luxury, close-in, Westside ATX Suburb. I didn't see any homeless people or vagrants in the Westlake areas and all the streets were clean.  It's a very affluent $$$ family friendly and Westlake Chaparrals  school district loving area. 

The Lost Creek neighborhood feels as if Suburbia got built into the natural greenbelt lands

the Ledgeway, just off of Westlake Drive properties (x2) felt very private, hidden, natural, ritzy, new and peaceful. 

the Davenport area, in Westlake, near Austin County Club is nice, clean, well manicured. 

Our 2705 Stratford active MLS Listing asking 1.5 Million had the closest location and proximity to actual, Austin, Texas. 

Got any questions? Inquiries? How can I work for you unique real estate situation?

The original plans before a compromise was reached with the local neighborhood association called for a building 31' and two or three floors taller.

Should you BUY a FLIPPED House? ATX Broker Associate GVM Tips, Insights.

 SHOULD YOU BUY a "FLIPPED" HOUSE?  Have you personally ever considered and wondered if you, yourself should BUY  a "flipped house." In my 15+ years of predominantly residential Central Austin brokerage practice and experience, here are my insights, opinions, suggestions and things to be cognizant of.  #1. Absolutely, for sure get a LICENSED INSPECTION on the flipped house! Not all flippers are the same. Just like in life there is a wide spectrum in regards to quality. Some flippers are flat out awful. They make very lipstick-like improvements, skip the expensive items such as the foundation, and plumbing and try to trick the consumer into paying more for a home, when the consumer shouldn't.  On the Flip Side (this joke was just too obvious) There are also excellent high-quality flippers whom selectively choose which homes they flip, and then they invest carefully and beautifully while genuinely  improving a home!
