Hi Jeremy, Great video thank you💗 I plan to buy a home in Georgetown, TX in the Laconterra subdivision (KB home). Can you give me advice? is this a good/ or bad area/community?.
I absolutely love watching your videos. I'm moving to Austin from Japan (military move) and your videos are not only informative (I feel like I've learned everything I know about Austin from you!), they are engaging and fun to watch as well (the graphics are on point, you actually show houses and neighborhoods). Thank you so so much!!
Avoid moving to Austin period! As a born & raised Austinite, nothing good has come from all overpopulation that has happened to Austin in just the last 5- 10 years! Higher traffic, air pollution, loss of green land, higher cost of living, higher crime etc
Good morning Jeremy oh, I just want to thank you so much for explaining the whole tax situation. Thank you for showing us The Good The Bad and The Ugly. Best wishes to you all. Shelley and Hugo
Thanks Shelley! I find I focus on the not so good. A lot of people try to "sell" you on Austin without giving you the big picture. I'd rather give the good and the bad so people will come here prepared. Being prepared helps you fall in love with it more!
@@JeremyAKnight again thank you Jeremy. We are looking to get out of California in about 4 years time. My dream would be in two Latitudes by Jimmy Buffet and Minto Builders. There was an article about 6 months ago placing Austin is one of the new locations for latitudes. Since I want to be one of the first ones in this 55 plus community I'm hoping that it won't be built until 4 or 5 years from now. Now with the woods shortage I think everything is going to slow down so we'll see what happens. But my biggest fear is your property tax. Will Mintos / Jimmy be able to change that? And believe me we will not be bringing California attitudes with us. I have a friend in Sunset Texas . Got to spend a week there last summer and had a fantastic time seeing the sights everywhere. I had to laugh when she said this is Texas traffic it was so light can you guys say it's so heavy. We are planning to spend another week September 2021 if everything goes as planned with herd immunity. We want to come see your Texas State Fair. So we'll see what happens in the next four or five years keep up your hard work explaining how Texas works we enjoy learning about it and keeping our fingers crossed for our future. Best wishes to you and your family stay well and healthy. Again best wishes from Shelley and Hugo
A friend of mine once told me (years ago) never buy on the east side of I-35. I foolishly ignored him and Bought a new build at XXX creek crest way in Ashton Oaks and due to the builder not Staying within the time frame allotted in the contract ended up buying a home on Spring Hollow Path in the Oaklands. The First day of school the brand new High School serving Ashton Oaks the students "Rioted". I am moving back to the Austin / San Antonio area and my wife originally not from Texas looked at me funny when i told her this she then came back to me a few days later and told me that all king of crime stats and thing were higher on the east side of 35 all the way up and down the 35 corridor ( I grew up between Boerne and Comfort so I had no Idea about this ).
@@chrisstewart5008 Agree. I'd rather have no Texas state income tax than higher property tax. You can always find a lower tax neighbourhoods to live in, property tax exemptions, smaller houses, compromise on desirable areas etc. You can't get out of state income tax.
Great video. He makes a great point about property taxes. ALWAYS Ask you realtor or look it up- what the tax rate is. Sadly, I have seen numerous mortgage LO's deliberately misrepresent the tax rate to make their "offer" seem better based upon a lower monthly payment. Yes, people should know better but some fall for this and get the "bump" at closing. Get several mortgage quotes and immediately disqualify anyone who fudges the tax numbers on your escrows.
Good information on the taxes which is something many people not from Texas forget about. We are considering moving back but want land outside Austin or San Antonio. Covid has us staying put for now but we do plan on exploring our options there soon.
People complain about CA. As Texans living in CA because of jobs, when we retired we planned to move back home to once again be close to family. But the ridiculousness of taxes in the Austin area has prevented our move. In CA we have a home assessed in the mid 500s and our tax bill is less than 6 grand annually & has been for a number of years. If it ever goes over 6k, that means our house value has really jumped. But for now it's slow & steady.
Always good content - Would love to get an honest video on neighborhoods closer to the city. I know it's difficult but there should be a way to have a honest conversation just stating facts.
Shadow Glen is in a Mud District. Our taxes will go down until the bond is paid for and only then will Manor annex Shadow Glen which won’t be for a while.
Property taxes will kill you in Travis and Williamson counties. Expect around $10,000 per year for newer homes in the price range he talked about here.
I just came across your channel and I love you work. I was actually considering on the neighborhoods and now after watching this one I wont. Can you give tips on community with low taxes? Like Carneros ranch leander? good bad?
LOL, well that just leaves buying a clunker home with tons of issues. Most people don't want to buy a house that's falling apart and paying more taxes for a nice new product is worth it. also, those taxes include a MUD, which help develop the neighborhoods.
There are plenty of places to buy East of I-35 that are great. The issue in this video is mainly the taxes associated with building on some of these neighborhoods.
Hey I like your channel. Why aren’t you informing people that they can write off a certain amount of their property taxes? The numbers can make sense with a high tax rate if the overall price is not too high.
The amount you can write off is now upto $10k to my understanding. Everyone’s taxes are different. Only reason I don’t talk about that is because I’m not a CPA 🤗 any time someone asks about taxes I refer them to a CPA.
@@JeremyAKnight Thank you. My husband and I are moving from CA to Austin in January. We plan on renting for a year or so to get a feel for what suits us. Your videos have already given us so much insight. Will keep watching and commenting👍🏼
Hope you enjoy the homeless in the streets and under every single hi way and all over downtown and and prepare to pay 30k over asking unless you are building, I would stay away from HOA.
Their prices are even higher now. The tax rates are still high. The prices are in the $500’s from what I’ve seen. The schools are still rated lower than some of AISD schools. For the price, tax rate, and schools. You can find more affordable neighborhoods close by.
Great video and thanks for sharing so much helpful content about buying a house in Austin! Why are longer build times / communities still being built out necessarily a bad thing though? Couldn't buying a house in an unfinished community result in price appreciation for that house as the neighborhood develops and becomes more desirable?
If depends on the community. If you are trying to sell your home and you are fighting the builder's inventory. Then it will be harder to sell. People would rather have new.
Hi Jeremy - you are way off on your drive time from Easton Park to downtown. many of us do it all the time in 20 minutes. Sunfield in Buda is 20 minutes south of us. Punch it into your Google map. yes - our tax rate is high but we have amazing things here (like McKinney Falls, Onion Creek OffLeash Dog Park, 10 minute drive to the airport, FB group for residents, close proximity to Tesla, SouthPark Meadows + HEB Plus ten minutes away, tons more coming) and there are waiting lists to get new homes in this neighborhood. i'd suggest you do a little more research so you don't misinform people.
You might think it’s false information. Yet, it’s reality. You can go to google maps and change the date and time. I do the same for every video. Your taxes are high and will cost you in the future.
@@JeremyAKnight Sunfield in Buda is 15 minutes south of Easton Park in Austin. You stated in your video it is the same distance to downtown as Easton Park. That is incorrect information. Our taxes are high now because we are in a MUD district. We have 6,000 - 8,000 homes coming to this community so you are basically saying those taxes will cost all of us us here in the future with no regards to other factors that have already boosted our home values.
@@rickoleary Yes. When you go to sell. You will still be competing against the new construction homes. Right now there is zero inventory in Austin. Yet, when there was inventory and there will be again. You will have a tough time competing with them. And yes, Taxes matter. When you go to compete with a community that close by has lower taxes. It will be less of a payment, and it will sell faster. I work with buyers daily that are worried about taxes increasing to a point they can no longer afford. And your taxes with the MUD will continue to go up every year as they are re-assed. GO TO GOOGLE MAPS. CHANGE THE DATE TO A WEEK DAY IN FEB, CHANGE THE TIME TO A RUSH HOUR TIME. THEY ARE ALMOST IDENTICAL.
It''s a great area. Lower tax rate which is nice. There is always a good amount of inventory, which keeps prices fun jumping too high. Georgetown is also a really great Suburb.
Thanks Jeremy ! I subscribed to your channel and will tell friends and fam to do the same !! We are currently renting in Mueller however it is to pricey to buy. 😬
Julie Fearheiley thanks for subbing and sharing! Mueller is definitely cool, and pricey! Prices in there have really gone up over the last 5 years. Let me know how we can help! I’ll keep working on putting out content!
@@yamahasuperbike2202 exactly, Bastrop is beautiful and inexpensive. A secret gem, everyone moving to Austin should check out Bastrop. Great schools, low crime and super neighborly. Austin is the exact opposite. Make the move to Bastrop today!
@@TRAZ4004 and that is exactly why we don't want Californians and everyone else moving here. Look at the rat circus Austin has become. Austin at one time was just like Bastrop, just a little bigger. We don't want Bastrop to end up anything like Austin.

we are over 65 and planning to move to Austin, we looking for areas that close to the hospital, most of all the community with a lot of walking trail, green space. We kinda like the Sweet water community. We was wonder if there is any tax break for Senior and School tax> please advise. Our price range from 400K - 550K. Thanks.
@@yamahasuperbike2202 I did that two years ago and haven't looked back. Traffic was much worse every year and property tax got more and more expensive.
Don't move to Austin people, unless you enjoy massive Homeless tents all over the city, California type traffic, extremely high rent, people who don't know how to drive, etc. Horrible Horrible City. It's turning into a hell hole.
@@doomstar2472 lmao my neighborhood is quiet as are my neighbors. The HOA is responsive and kids are in Charter so no worries there. I can see where one might postulate that opinion within older parts of Manor however. Our experience thus far has been nothing short of awesome.

Hey Jeremy are there any neighborhoods in Austin you reccomend not just for appreciation but cash flow please? Love your vids man
Manor is not an Austin neighborhood.
