DALLAS—The major Texas markets are viewed very favorably in terms of near-term investment outlook. According to Emerging Trends in Real Estate: 2019, published by the Urban Land Institute and PWC, real estate investors favor markets with potential for more growth than the traditional gateway cities.
In the report, Dallas/Fort Worth was ranked number one, with potential for strong future growth but also with the liquidity of a gateway market. Austin ranked number six in the study while San Antonio ranked number 20. Houston ranked 37. The demographic breakdown of the region's markets also is favorable with Austin, Dallas/Fort Worth, Houston and San Antonio all having a significantly higher percentage of a younger population supporting strong labor force growth and productivity.
