Why I am Buying Real Estate Right Now

Posted by on 1-01-24 in Lake LBJ Real Estate | Comments Off on Why I am Buying Real Estate Right Now

 

We don’t just sell Lake LBJ real estate but we are also actively investing in real estate ourselves.  You know there is a famous quote from Warren Buffet that says ” Be fearful when others are greedy and greedy when others are fearful”.  I am personally on the hunt right now for some quality real estate because I believe there is a lot of opportunity out there right now in the marketplace.  Here are a few reasons why why:

 

-Higher interest rates means there are less buyers shopping in the local real estate market

-The off-season (cold weather) typically brings about Great Deals as less buyers are out looking and properties aren’t as fun to own when the weather stinks 

-Personally I’d rather have a tangible piece of real estate with real utility, that has a chance to appreciate, over “dollars” sitting in some digital bank account.  

-Real Estate is an excellent hedge against inflation

-I have always done well investing in real estate and I believe in real estate as a long-term investment

There is a very unique granite outcropping on the property with a fire pit that jets way out into the water; the perfect spot to roast marshmallows and sit around the campfire enjoying Lake Life! This place has amazing outdoor area with wrap around porches, various outdoor seating spots, a turfed play area and an amazing outdoor kitchen! The boat dock has multiple slips and room for all the toys plus a HUGE storage/tack room to keep boards, life jackets, tools etc. This unique piece of Lake LBJ Real Estate has it all!

Motivated Seller on Lake LBJ

Posted by on 11-11-23 in Lake LBJ Real Estate | Comments Off on Motivated Seller on Lake LBJ

If there has ever been an opportunity to buy a waterfront home right, I have it right here.  The sellers of 140 Web Isle in Granite Shoals have instructed me to get offers and sell this incredible waterfront home.  This prime piece of Lake LBJ Real Estate was originally listed at $3,000,000 and was recently reduced to $2,800,000 and the owner is ready to deal with the right buyer that can close quickly.

 

Here is what I really like about the property:

-Its all single story, which is very rare in lakefront because usually the lots are wide enough to get the square footage you want on one level

-This home has a 3 car garage which is also very rare for the same reason as above

-All the properties granite shoals are on septic except for a small few including this one. They are on a grinder pump connected to a sewer system. This allows for an addition (probably a second story) without needing to account for a septic drain field.

-This property has no restrictions against short term rentals if someone wants to run it like that

-218 feet of water is a ton for any property but it also looks very good on paper when you have a high-end home with that much water.  Most properties have 50-60 feet maybe 100, so 218 is a ton

-The living room / kitchen area is super open and is great for lake life.

 

Motivated sellers on Lake LBJ are very rare, especially on great properties.  If you have the means to buy right now this is your chance.  Qualified buyers reach out to learn more about this special home or if you have questions about Lake LBJ Real Estate reach out at (512) 786-1515

Pickleball Court on Lake LBJ

Posted by on 11-11-23 in Lake LBJ Real Estate, Luxury Real Estate on Lake LBJ | Comments Off on Pickleball Court on Lake LBJ

I am always impressed by the unique features I find when exploring properties on Lake LBJ but recently I have seen a new trend that really stands out. The game of pickleball has been around for quite some time as I remember playing this game as a young kid at Camp Longhorn. Recently the sport has gained a lot of popularity and attraction amongst people of all ages.  For those that don’t know, the game is a cross between ping pong and tennis and is relatively easy to learn and play.

One of my clients recently constructed a Pickleball court on their lake property and I think it was a brilliant idea.  What a great game to enjoy while out on the lake and because it is a game that can be enjoyed by most anyone I think its a great addition to any lakefront property…if you have the room.  Let me know what you think in the comments.   If you are interested in learning more about Lake LBJ Real Estate or if we can assist in any way please reach out!

Posted by on 9-09-23 in Lake LBJ Real Estate, Luxury Real Estate on Lake LBJ, Marble Falls | Comments Off on Coming Soon on Lake Marble Falls

Our newest listing on Lake Marble Falls is one to get excited about.  For those that have been focusing on Lake LBJ Real Estate I invite you to go outside of your comfort zone and take a peak inside what I consider to be one of the BEST kept secrets in the Texas Hill Country.  I personally love Lake Marble Falls for a few reasons: great location, calm and very deep water, and a lot less boat traffic compared to Lake LBJ.  The location, right inside the city of Marble Falls and within walking distance to shops and restaurants like Bluebonnet Cafe, Bear King Brewery, and downtown Main Street is hard to beat!

This brand new build with just over 4300 sq. ft. offers a soft contemporary style with a warm design to create the ideal Lake Home.  5 bedrooms, 4 full baths, two living rooms, multiple outdoor spaces, a beautiful pool and a two-story, partially covered boat dock with boat lift.  Compare this to similar homes on Lake LBJ and I believe you will instantly realize the value this home has to offer.  Qualified buyers reach out for more information or to learn more about Lake Marble Falls Real Estate.  We hope to hear from you soon!
