Welcome to the Lacey Oak Realty Monthly Market Report
By Heather Vitko, Broker & Owner
If you’ve been watching the Austin real estate market and wondering what’s really happening,
you’re in the right place. Each month, I’ll be breaking down local housing trends, Austin home
prices, and what it all means for buyers and sellers across Central Texas, in plain English.
There’s no hype here, just honest insight from someone who’s been in the trenches of Austin real
estate for many years.
About Me
I’m Heather Vitko, Broker and Owner of Lacey Oak Realty, a locally owned brokerage
serving Austin, Buda, Kyle, and the surrounding Central Texas area. I’ve been helping clients
buy and sell homes since 2018, and over the years I’ve seen every kind of market… from the
frenzy of multiple offers to today’s more balanced conditions.
My approach is simple:
➡️ Be straightforward. Tell clients the truth about the market, not what they want to hear.
➡️ Stay local. Central Texas is unique, our neighborhoods, our growth, and our people.
➡️ Deliver results. Strategy, timing, and presentation make all the difference.
That’s the kind of insight I’ll be sharing right here every month.
What You’ll Find in Each Report
Each monthly post will give you a clear snapshot of what’s happening in our local market:
Market data and trends – prices, inventory, and demand
Advice for buyers – how to get the best deal in Austin’s current conditions
Tips for sellers – pricing and presentation that move homes
Local focus – updates specific to Austin and surrounding communities like Manchaca, Buda,
Kyle, Uhland, Dripping Springs, Driftwood, Wimberley, San Marcos, New Braunfels,
Pflugerville, Round Rock, Cedar Park, Elgin and Manor
My goal is to help you stay informed… whether you’re preparing to buy a home in Austin, sell
your home in Central Texas, or just want to understand where the market is headed.
Why This Matters
Real estate is local. National headlines can be misleading, but when you understand what’s
happening in our market, you can make decisions that actually make sense. That’s what these
monthly blogs are for, to keep you a step ahead and confident in your next move.
