I said this two years ago.. Texas was gonna be the next boom state. Used to be Florida was where everyone went to get a little warmer weather and cheap houses.
Now that Florida's real estate skyrocketed to being insane, I knew Texas would end up being the next best place to go. In reality Florida sucks anymore. Nothing but crack heads and bums and now the average gettho house is 150k plus.
In Texas you can buy houses in Dallas area under 100k all day long. In Austin they are harder to find but it can still be done. When you pay 150k in Texas for a house you get twice the house as you would get in Florida.
I almost moved to Austin the start of last year, was going to buy a condo down on Town Lake. Fucking awesome town (super clean city) and I kick myself for not doing it, but it was a choice between expanding my biz or buying the condo.
Kinda sucks cause the condo I was looking at was about 5 mins from this..
