How to compare a home
Price per square foot is a comparison tool, not a price. Lot, condition, finishes, floor plan and location move it more than any single average, so compare a home with the closest recent sales and ask what is different. Numbers like these describe the whole of Austin County, not one street or one home, and real estate decisions are rarely a straight line. When you are ready to look at comparing a specific home for a specific address or plan, talk to us to find the right option for your circumstances.
