Austin real estate has a big problem. Affordability. With so much demand for housing, prices are being driving up and out of reach for many, especially in central Austin. That's why I get a bit excited about "deals" like this house. Sure, it's not very big, but it's well executed, simple and under $250,000. 

Price: $249,900

Details: 1,036 sq/ft, 3 Bed, 1 Bath

5928 Lux : SOL

I first blogged about SOL back in 2011 on Grassrootsmodern. Since that time, I have only two things to say. #1 I wish there were more homes for sale in SOL. #2 I wish they were still priced around $190,000. Either way, this unique community of affordable modern homes in East Austin is still one of my favorites. This is one of three brand new homes to be built in the area, and something tells me it won't be available for long.

Price: $385,000

Details: 1,830 sq/ft, 3 Bed, 3 Bath

I'm posting this house today, not because it's the most amazing "modern" home, but more to prove a point. I sometimes get people who love the homes they see on my website, but think they will never be able to afford one. Most don't want to live outside of Austin (where it is much more affordable). There are two choices then, buy a fixer upper (see my project) or get a house that has been flipped and is still decently affordable. Case in point, this little guy looks like it has had some decent work done to it. The deep Austin location isn't bad, at least you could get to Justine's easy.  All that for under $200,000. 

Price: $181,799
