Texas and Florida are the best states for buyers to get a home at the moment, with seven of the country's top 10 cities to do so, according to a new report from real estate company Zillow. Houston, Austin and San Antonio made the list in the former, while Jacksonville, Orlando and Tampa did so for the latter.
The states' attractiveness becomes higher when considering that most of the country's 50 largest metro areas currently favor those who are selling. This is because there still is a "desperate lack of homes on the market for buyers to choose from compared to the pre-pandemic" period despite price cuts and inventory ahead, the company explained.
