You know I'm always a sucker for a black house. There is just something so dramatic about them. This one comes by way of Hatch Works who have built quite a few similar homes on the east side. The dark motif carries inside as well, but manages to do it without feeling to dark and moody.
Price: $849,000
Details: 2,244 sq. ft. 4 Bed, 4 Bath
Read MoreThis detached condo is a handsome example of good infill. I love the overall shape of the building and it has some nice detail. Lot's of good natural light on the inside and plenty of extra deck space too. There are a few questionable choice though like those floors and tile countertops (who does that still?). All that being said, the price per square foot on these is a steal!

Read MoreThis "urban farmhouse" reminds me more of the suburban homes of my rural childhood than anything I associate with urban. Despite the relatively traditional architecture the detailing and finish out on this home are very nice. It just goes to show how much those little details matter.

Read MoreDespite the less than stellar photos this modern new construction in East Austin sure didn't stick around for long. It's been on the market for 4 days and already has multiple offers. While that sounds like a standard story for Austin, things are slowing down a bit which makes this a bit of a surprise. Just goes to show, if it's price right (and this one is) and well designed it will move quick.
Price: $430,000

Read MoreI love these creative flips, and in a city full of creative people I'm always surprised that we don't see more of them. This one takes a very typical, simple east side bungalow and breathes life into the space. While the price per square foot is pretty high the small front house does mean that you could potentially add another structure down the line.
Price: $409,900
Details: 912 sq. ft. 2 Bed, 2 Bath
Read MoreSOL doesn't get as much attention as Agave despite the similarities, but it's got plenty of good stuff despite it's much smaller size. This house is a good example of what SOL has to offer. Smaller than Agave homes and though not really much cheaper, it still looks like a pretty good deal based on it's closer in east Austin location. Also, hats off to the owners of this one for a solid furniture collection. I'd almost forgotten how good that DCM looks.
