78748 or 78744.

Two ZIPs. Two completely different bets on South Austin's next decade.

I built this 18-page relocation guide so you can make the call with clear eyes instead of a Zillow scroll. I'm Brandon Holley, broker and South Austin specialist.

This guide was built for you if...

▸ You are relocating to Austin and have already narrowed to South Austin

▸ You are weighing 78744, 78745, 78747, 78748, or 78749

▸ You want honest tradeoffs, not a highlight reel

▸ You care about the tax math, not just the sticker price

▸ You want to choose with clear eyes, not regret in six months

This is not for you if...

▸ You are looking for an agent who pushes you toward a fast decision

▸ You want only the new construction angle and not honest tradeoffs

▸ You are not actually relocating to Austin in the next 12 months
