• Shortage of starter homes leaves buyers scrambling (azbigmedia.com) — Homebuyers in the Austin area, including West Lake Hills, are seeing more trade-up priced neighborhoods and fewer areas dominated by starter homes, even as overall starter inventory has slightly improved. A new Realtor.com report shows that ZIP codes around Lake Travis and West Lake Hills skew toward higher-priced listings, underscoring how local geography can sharply limit options for first-time buyers.
