Austin Business Journal writes, "In close proximity to some of the metro's biggest communities, developers hope to bring 191 compact home lots to Leander.

The city’s Planning and Zoning Commission voted to approve a zoning change related to the 55-acre tract on Feb. 26. PulteGroup, which submitted the rezoning application, did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the project.

The project would sit in Leander's extraterritorial jurisdiction and abut County Road 267 and Equine Road.

Austin Business Journal shares, "With plenty of housing inventory and not enough interested buyers, Texas home sellers were the underdogs in the 2025 market. The start of this year is reflecting some of that — but that's not expected to be the case later in 2026.

Texas Realtors' 2025 Homeselling Experience Report shows Realtors had to curb sellers' pricing hopes and encourage concessions, which rang especially true in the Austin metro.

Looking at sales from January to November, 75% of Realtors across the state said at least one client thought their home value was more than 10% higher than their agent's estimate. Only 7% of the optimistic sellers closed at elevated prices.
