My daughter was in real estate in Austin until six months ago. I had to finally tell her to get a job, that I was not going to help her any more. Austin real estate market tanked with the computer industry and Dell sending all there support work to India and hiring nothing but temps for sales. The only sales people that still have jobs there are the ones who handled corporate accounts.
Houses are selling at record pace up here in WA state, average price homes are selling in less than two weeks. $500,000 ramblers are selling fast, too.

Hope it remains that way! If the rest of the market other than Texas and Colorado, starts the downward trend, the economy will be in super sorry shape and it will be shanty town time again. My father used to tell me stories about sweeping the sand out of their house in bowie texas during the depression, not a place or time I would like to be involved with.
