This Is The REAL Reason Austin Texas Housing Inventory Is Going CRAZY!

January 4, 2026

Check out this in-depth look at the Austin Texas housing market, where real estate expert Ashley Brinkman explains why finding the right home may feel harder than expected—and why it’s not just you. This video breaks down what inventory really means, how months of inventory impact buyers and sellers, and why different Austin neighborhoods feel more competitive than others.

Ashley shares a hyper-local breakdown of inventory by zip code across Austin and surrounding areas, explaining why lower inventory means higher demand and multiple-offer situations. She also covers seasonal trends, why inventory typically slows down in the fall and winter, and why Austin can feel competitive even when national headlines call it a buyer’s market.

You’ll learn how to think strategically about resale homes, new construction, and remodeling, including risks of buying into early construction phases, competing with builder incentives, and when a HELOC remodel may make more sense than moving. The video also explains how off-market opportunities, Compass exclusives, and coming-soon listings really work—and when being on the open market matters most.

If you’re buying, selling, or planning ahead in Austin, this video will help you reset expectations, refine your search, and make confident decisions in today’s market.
