Nation's Hottest Real Estate Markets
Where views are concerned, listings in the Austin metro area are viewed 70 percent more than the U.S. average and 14 percent more than the Texas average. Austin also ranks No. 27 on the fast-moving supply list. Homes here are only on the market an estimated 42 days, which is 24 days lower than the U.S. average of 66 days and 17 days lower than the Texas average.
Another achievement is that Texas is one of only three states to get two cities in the top 20; Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington ranks No. 4 and Austin-Round Rock No.16. Colorado triumphs with No. 1 Denver and No. 13 Boulder, and Michigan shows strong with No. 9 Ann Arbor and No. 10 Detroit.

Lake Travis Rises and so does the Market
After the Memorial Day Weekend downpour that drenched most of Central Texas and early June rains that continued to hit the Central Texas area. The Highland Lakes which most notably include Lake Travis have continued to rise and with the Travis hitting one of the lowest points in history in 2015, the rebound to now being only 20 feet from full is amazing. With this rain the real estate market in Lake Travis has seen an uptick with renewed interest in Lake Travis waterfront real estate.See some of our waterfront homes for sale below

INTERNATIONAL SPOTLIGHT
|
Turquoise Coast of Turkey, Kalkan has not been touched by mass tourism. More sophisticated than the usual resort town, Kalkan appeals to travelers looking for more than a "sun and sea" holiday. According to the Sunday Times, Kalkan attracts the kind of visitor who would also enjoy Tuscany or the Dordogne. The Guardian likens the town to "the Italian Riviera minus the poseurs."
