The city recorded the deepest price correction of any major US metro, and now many homeowners are stuck with homes that no longer fit their lives and a market that won't give back what they paid. After two decades in this market, here's the breakdown you need. We look at what the correction actually looked like, how today's market compares to the 2021 frenzy, and why selling near the top to buy back cheaper rarely works once you factor in rates. I also break down the two cost layers most sellers never run, the property tax reset and insurance spikes, plus whether Austin is still worth holding. Then I walk through the full selling framework. === Chapters: 0:00 The Deepest Correction In America 0:19 The Midnight Kitchen Table 2:13 How Far Austin Gave Back 3:54 Then Versus Now 5:15 The Trap That Looked Smart 6:57 The Tax Math Nobody Runs 8:09 The Second Hidden Layer 9:00 Is Austin Still Worth Holding? 10:34 Plan Before You List 11:43 The Four Questions First 13:00 Regret Versus A Workable Position === Welcome to the Schmitz & Smith Group's channel!
