Extraordinary
Times

All real estate investors are aware of the recent explosion in today’s residential housing market. Between August 2020 and August 2021, the average home price in America rose by 14.9%. Clearly, these are extraordinary times. The post-pandemic boom has unlocked a wide-spread desire to move to sunnier and more encouraging business climates.

Yet many of these same investors are ignoring the opportunities in the commercial real estate sector that are equally appealing. Commercial real estate is booming. This is an ideal time for investors to partner with the right experts to maximize this trend. From The Oasis on Lake Travis to Barton Springs, Ballard Build has Austin commercial investments covered.

This may not seem intuitive to those who have seen stories about struggling office properties in the Texas central business district. In the new era of working from home, many urban office towers will need to be repurposed over time. Likewise, depending on their location, some retail sites were suffering even before the pandemic. But the glib headlines about specific properties fail to convey the reality

By taking a closer look at the Texas market, a far more robust and successful reality is revealed. This reality is one that savvy real estate investors can now harness to their benefit. In a year when naysayers were forecasting doom for commercial real estate, the past year in Texas tells a different story.

Perhaps more than most large metro areas, commercial real estate in Texas means a lot more than office towers. Multi-family residential development, warehousing and logistics facilities, and industrial development have all sped up. That includes medical commercial real estate that all doctors know very well such as hospitals, clinics and medical professional offices.

Every category of commercial real estate has seen price appreciation in the past 12 months, even retail. Some sectors such as industrial and multi-family residential have thrived. As the pandemic subsides and growth accelerates, we can expect even greater growth across all real estate segments during 2022.

Austin is an especially exciting area. Savvy real estate investors know better than to pass up these high-return properties and new urban developments. Developments that are maximizing the best city and suburban high-value locations.

All sun belt and mountain-west markets have seen an explosion of mid-rise and high-rise multi-family buildings. Not to mention so-called “live-play-work” communities. These communities will enjoy a renewed popularity as the hybrid work-from-home society evolves into the norm.

An afternoon drive reveals the astonishing growth of new mid and high-rise multi-family developments. Not to mention unprecedented renovations and modernizing of existing residences of all kinds. The population is growing at an incredible rate as the business environment flourishes which translates into demand for dwellings.

The multi-family residential real estate market is growing fast. The vast in-migration of affluent young professionals from across the country is driving a rapid growth in the rental market. Not to mention higher returns based upon a demand for higher quality properties with the latest décor and amenities.

As the demand for dwellings grows, without enough supply to meet the current or future demand, there are investment opportunities. This shortage of supply indicates that the value proposition for residential rental property will continue to look promising.

Consider that the barrier to entry is lower for rentals vs. home purchases. Combining that with the demand for housing, it becomes easy to see why rental investments make sense as a part of an investment portfolio.

Additionally, the city’s position as a commercial hub is sometimes overlooked. Investors have benefited from large-scale company expansions. The needs of e-commerce have driven the warehousing and storage services market. This market is expected to grow 10% nationally per year over the next five years.

While many expected the worst, real estate investment professionals like Balco Management predicted ongoing health within the commercial real estate sector. This is because of one important underlying truth that all real estate investors should keep in mind: stability.

There is a foundational stability to real estate as an asset class. A look at the past 30 years in Texas reveals steady growth patterns of appreciation each year. Nationally, the average annual price appreciation since 1992 has been 5.3%. This even factors in a lot of unpromising rural and rustbelt markets that saw little or no appreciation.

There is simply no other asset class like it.
