For Sale - $899k - Dick Clark

This place was for sale last summer and then was sold.  It is now back on the market.  I should have grabbed the picture set as there was a lot more than offered here.  If you go the Dick Clark site and click on residential there are more (it is the Mount Bonnell house).  Boo for Flash websites where you can’t link directly to anything.  

Listing info.

Updated:  Price.

New:  Virtual Tour yet more pictures (and better than the listing set).

Friday Post

There pretty much nothing showing this this weekend (again) for Open Houses.  I was hoping for a post holiday bump in listings but nothing came up of interest except some prices getting reset.

Last week, I mentioned that I was going to write up some notes on the house buying thing this week.  This week just slipped by.  Sorry about that.    

Today I’ll kick it off with some background.   We moved to Austin summer of 2005.  It was at that time our 4th city in 4 years after a bit of whirlwind of Seattle to DC to Seattle to LA before coming to Austin.   I started Modern Austin because we were looking around at places and learning the city and I thought, “since I am looking at all this already, may as well throw up listings and pictures and maybe others will find it useful as well.”   

We were planning on renting for a while, learn the city and then buy.  Of course, it didn’t work out that way and we were off to DC area again for about 20 months.  In my mind, we still lived in Austin but in reality we lived on Capital Hill (Eastern Market Area).  Keeping the site going was nice way to stay in touch with what was going on here.  We moved back Labor Day weekend 2007.  Hopefully for semi-good (I would love to find a way to spend the summer in a more temperate region).  

Next post:  Coming to terms with the realities of the market.
