A Perfect Sky!
Check out this amazing photo I took this weekend after showing Lake LBJ Real Estate. You will see that Lake LBJ offers some of the most beautiful Texas sunsets you will find which is why Lake LBJ real estate is becoming more and more valuable.
While the sunset is nice to see, you can always capture it from the boat or dock. Property on Lake LBJ that face west are historically harder to sell and often trade for less money because the afternoon sun can be very undesirable on a hot summer day.

Perfect Water on Lake LBJ
If you are looking for Lake LBJ real estate its very important to pursue perfect water. 3706 Pack Saddle Drive is a prime example of a new waterfront listing on Lake LBJ with perfect water:
1) 108 feet of waterfront footage – This is a pretty perfect amount of waterfront footage. Its not too much and it provides enough distance from your neighbors and allows for views from most every room in the house.
2) East facing – This is important because the afternoon sun on Lake LBJ can be brutal. This property faces directly east which means cool afternoon shade all year around.
3) Cove protected – This allows for a calm and peaceful swimming area, protected from the wakes of large boats and watercraft. This also makes it much easier to pull your boat in and out without any troubles.
4) Open Waterviews – This is why people invest in Lake LBJ. This property has incredible views of the open water on Lake LBJ and the Texas Hill Country in the distance.

LBJ’s Sweetest, Now Sweeter!
At the new price of $599k, 2826 Lakeview is in my opinion the best opportunity on Lake LBJ. With 171 feet of wider open water facing directly out to open water and Applehead Island (the most expensive real estate on Lake LBJ) this .88 acre lot is in a league of it’s own. The property is covered with lush grass with a very solid granite foundation making it the ideal building spot for the waterfront home of your dreams.
One of the best parts of 2826 Lakeview is that the property already contains a 3 bedroom, 2 bath cabin with wrap around wood deck and nicely reworked into the perfect lake retreat. This property is not for everyone and is a perfect opportunity for someone looking “outside the box”.
In my professional opinion when buying Lake LBJ real estate you want to buy the best “property/waterfront” you can buy because you can always improve the house. In fact, you would not even be looking at the house if it was not for the water. These views are million dollar views and with a price tag of almost 1/2 of $1 million dollars you will not encounter a better opportunity. If you are looking for a property with a ton of upside, 2826 Lakeview is the right choice.

In building this home, the owners carefully thought out how they would use the home in the future and built it to achieve 5 star energy efficiency and rating while keeping possibilities open. For example, the huge porch that sits lakeside has been plumbed to add an outdoor kitchen with hot/cold water and electricity. The home was also built so that the owner could potentially add a second story above the master bedroom with plans for a staircase in the living room.

Inventory Levels Rise-Don’t Be Fooled
Inventory levels with Lake LBJ real estate have really started to rise as the summer is coming upon us quickly but I must say, the pricing is a little disappointing. It is always frustrating when agents and brokers flood the market with overpriced listings hurting the market overall. Rather than just taking whatever they can get, these agents should offer accurate pictures of the market and turn down overpriced listings. Overpriced listings do not sell at Lake LBJ. Don’t be fooled!
Post-crash, buyers are looking for strong value when purchasing waterfront real estate on Lake LBJ. They are not willing to overpay for Lake LBJ real estate as was the case in 2005 and 2006. These buyers want opportunity and good deals and rather than looking at previous comps that look at the market to see what money can buy.
Accurately pricing real estate on Lake LBJ is the only way to yield top dollar but many sellers are working off bad information. How are you supposed to make decisions that affect your finances and your future if you are given a true picture of market conditions. A sign in your yard is one thing, a contract to close is another.
I work hard for my clients, using my expertise and market knowledge for the gain of my clients. I shoot my clients straight the first time so they can have good information to rely on for their well being. I price property to sell because that is what I am hired for and I will not take an overpriced listing so that I can put a sign in your yard to advertise my business.
Our strategy for marketing Lake LBJ real estate is aggressive but effective and we help our clients meet their goals. For assistance with your Lake LBJ real estate contact me today or visit us online.
Waterfront Cabin on Beautiful Water

The house is is situated on a beautiful protected cove about 100 yards from the main body of the lake. This private cove area is perfect for swimming, kayaking, canoeing and makes for an easy in and out for watercrafts. The cove also protects from rough water and noise from lake traffic.
The house has two spacious bedrooms plus a bonus third bunk area which could easily be converted into a additional bathroom. The kitchen has plenty of counter space and solid wood cabinets that could easily be painted for an updated look. The home also has a very large living room with large windows offering a beautiful view out to the lake. There is also a very large wood deck that leads down to the water adding some great value with outdoor living space.
The property also has a storage building which currently houses a full size washer and dryer and provides ample storage for tools and water toys. There is also a very nice carport that offers an awesome outdoor barbecue area and more outdoor living.
What I love most about this piece of Lake LBJ real estate is the lush green setting that creates a perfect waterfront yard, shaded from the harsh sun with plenty of room to enjoy and play. The huge, mature trees create the perfect canopy allowing in just the perfect amount of light. In my opinion the waterfront here is pretty ideal in that it offers cove protection with open water views on Lake LBJ. Grab your bathing suit and come home!
