WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 15, 2023 BY  CHAD SWIATECKI A new report from one of the city’s leading real estate groups is bringing fresh, detailed data that shows how unaffordable housing has become for most local residents. Austin Board of Realtors’ “The Truth About Austin’s Missing Housing” uses industry sales data to examine the overall state of housing affordability among different earning levels and racial groups, and also looks at the state of housing in all 10 City Council districts.

Buying a home became much more expensive and interested buyers dried up. “We knew that the market was nowhere what it used to be,” Mader said. “But I don't think we were adequately prepared.” In May, Mader and her husband listed their North Austin home for $650,000. Then, they waited. “The weeks just kept passing by and we we...
