With Goosehead you pay those extra fees because after all they are just a broker for insurance. If you’re pressed for time then to that route; otherwise it doesn’t take much to get quotes from various companies.

Building a good relationship with that person is crucial.  For example, I know mine well and trust her.  I also handle some of her business since I’m in title business.  I really got to know how she handles business and how many years she’s done this on top of how many doors she manages.

When they refinance they will still need to show income!

Bingo!

I'd like to see the distribution of the drop, from lower cost/more affordable housing to high-cost housing. The temptation is to say that the drop is likely at the high end of the market as folks downgrade or move due to telework opportunities, but that may not be the case.

Two paragraphs that stand out to me and that I agree with:  

‘Rieder said he foresees declines in apartment rents and occupancy rates in the short term, but has a positive outlook for the future.

“We can’t go from roughly 2% unemployment to over 11% today without it adversely affecting the rental market,” Rieder said. “However, Austin remains an attractive market for both lifestyle and employment and we are still very bullish on Austin over the long term.”’

Last, but not least, Texas (especially Austin and DFW) will continue to see a lot of migration.   It will also continue to attract many businesses relocating here as we are a very business friendly state while places like California and NYC will get hit hard.  

Oh, one final thing......they discussed A level properties....with interests rates as low as 2.65 I can see why someone renting in the high end apartment  will want to buy instead of rent!  Class B And especially C, rental demand will always be there with these jobs being created as we recover from Covid.  35,000+ metropolitans in the US and only 53 of those are positioned to stand strong amidst all this.  ATX and DFW are part of those 53.

Great article from a year ago!  I visit San Francisco a lot (obviously not this year) and it really is no surprise.  Anyone can see immediately the vast difference in spending daily (tolls, gas, rental cost, housing, etc).

Bring it.  I have real estate/commercial all over that area.  And I know the area like the back of my hand, of course.
