What’s in store for Austin’s housing market next year?

New reports predict modest home price growth for the Austin metro area in 2022, a far cry from the 18.5% increase from January 2020 to January 2021. A bevy of residential real estate experts share what they see in their crystal ball. Some agree that inventory and sales are likely to pick up, keeping prices in check. Others see a continuation of rapid appreciation: “If you look at the demand that we have, and you look at the inflationary environment that we’re in with low interest rates — we’re in a situation again where we’re probably going to see prices go up considerably.”
