Texas continued to be a national leader in economic, 人口, 以及2014年2021十大正规彩票app市场的增长, yielding significant growth in all areas of Texas real estate over the last year, 根据2014年 德克萨斯州年度住房报告 今天由德州2021十大正规彩票app经纪人®发布.

“现在住在德克萨斯州真是太好了. The high demand for Texas real estate is not being fueled by speculation and investment activity—it’s driven by the thousands of people who move to the Lone Star State daily,丹·哈特菲尔德说, 德州2021十大正规彩票app经纪人协会主席. “People are moving to Texas from across America and around the world to take part in our state’s booming economy, business-friendly environment and quality of life.”

Texas currently gains more out-of-state residents than any other state and is a leader in home sales from international buyers. 2014年 德州搬迁报告 released in October showed that more than 584,000 people moved to Texas from out of state in 2013, 而2014年9月 德州国际购房者报告 showed that home purchases by international homebuyers reached its highest level in five years, contributing more than $11 billion to the Texas economy in a 12-month period.

孤星之州的快速经济, 工作, and 人口 growth had a positive impact on multiple segments of the Texas housing market over the last year. 2014年 德州购房者和卖家报告 3月发行 reported that Texans’ median household incomes rose significantly in 2013, 增加9.同比增长6%，至91,700美元. This is nearly double the nationwide increase of 5.6% to $83,000 during the same time frame.

“Virtually every segment of the Texas housing market has benefitted from our state’s continued growth,哈特菲尔德补充道。. “过去一年, 然而, we saw several areas of Texas real estate that were still recovering from the recession in 2012 really begin to take off in 2013 and 2014, including luxury home sales and housing development.”

Luxury home sales surged to become one of the fastest growing price classes ($1 million or more) within the Texas housing market. 2014年1月的 德州豪华住宅销售报告 reported an average 35% year-over-year increase for luxury home sales in Texas’s four major metros in 2013. Small land sales in Texas—many of which were used for ranchettes, vacation homes and recreational uses—were also strong, 有4,2013年全州售出了189块小土地, 根据2014年4月的数据 德克萨斯州小土地销售报告.

Housing development picked up significantly over the last year, with new home sales in Texas outpacing those nationally by more than half 根据2014年 德州购房者和卖家报告 3月发行. 而 2014-Q1, 2014-Q2, 2014-Q3 德克萨斯州季度住房报告 continue to show statewide inventory levels that are approximately three months below the Real Estate Center at Texas A&M University’s balanced housing market level of 6.5个月, Texas homes sales in 2014 have kept pace with last year’s strong levels, putting 2014 on-pace to surpass 2013 as the second-best year in Texas real estate.

除了, low inventory levels also drove Texas condominium and townhome sales to be the fastest-growing segment of the housing market, 平均增加10.5% in Texas’s four major metros in the first half of 2014. 据2014年报道 Texas Condominium Mid-Year Sales Report, condominiums were also a popular choice due to rising home prices statewide, which steadily increased 5%-10% during the year.

尽管市场增长迅速, tough lending standards and a competitive homebuying market caused some Texas homeowners to remodel their current homes instead of entering the market. 2014年 德州改造估价报告 showed that remodeling projects became increasingly more popular and profitable over the last year, 较小的, functional projects that boosted a home’s curb appeal yielding the most recoup costs statewide.

哈特菲尔德的结论, “The Texas housing market will likely continue to be highly competitive in 2015, but rising housing development and inventory levels as well as greater access to homebuyer education programs like those promoted through Get Ready Texas will help make the dream of homeownership attainable for all Texans. This has been a glowing year for Texas real estate, and 2015 is on-pace to be just as bright.”
