The fast recovery from the Great Recession catapulted the Texas economy at breakneck speed from 2012-2014, pushing demand for housing even higher.  Homes under $200,000 are only on the market 2.6 months with 6.5 months of inventory considered  balanced.  This of course pushes prices higher and with interest rates still low GREAT TIME TO BUY OR SELL.  After the election & Feds meeting in November interest rates will probably go up.
