The Million Dollar Austin Condo Market

towers staff June 18, 2007 Comment

How big is the market for million dollar condos in downtown Austin? Developers are betting that hundreds of buyers are willing to invest $1 million or more on high end units in projects like the Austonian, 21c, the Four Seasons Residences, and in the condos at the W hotel.

To get a sense for the competition for million dollar homes and condos in the Austin market, I scoured current MLS listings for homes and condos currently on the market with asking prices above $1 million.

Surprisingly, there is an amazing amount of single family home inventory priced over $1 million:

Current MLS Inventory by Listing Price
$1M + — 572 Homes
$2M+ — 171 Homes
$3M + — 70 Homes
$4M+ — 29 Homes
$5M+ — 12 Homes
$10M + — 1 Home

And how about the Austin condo market? Currently, there are just 9 condos priced over $1 million in all of Austin. While the MLS numbers include projects that are being marketed directly without an MLS listing, the number is still amazingly low. While the number of houses in Austin with a Tax appraisal over $1 million has grown from 1,602 to 2,981 between 2005 and 2007, the million dollar market is the fastest growing segment of the Austin real estate market. While it remains to be seen if downtown Austin demand grows proportionally, it seems quite likely.
