I'm Michael Guess, and I've been a proud resident of the Austin area since 1996. My wife and I have raised our three children and many pets in the homes, schools, and parks of Northwest Austin and Leander. I am an engineer by training and profession having enjoyed a 35-year career in Technology. I've worked in large and small companies and co-founded a company that built fiber optic networks in 18 cities. I've also cultivated a passion for real estate over these years. Whether actively looking or not, I've always enjoyed exploring listings, visiting open houses, and touring new construction. Perhaps that's why my family is currently in our 10th home! My background in business and negotiations, combined with my deep knowledge of the local real estate market and understanding of the financial markets makes me well-equipped to assist you. If you are looking to downsize, find a larger home in a new school district or neighborhood, or build your dream home I'd be honored to help you sell your existing home and find your new one!

War is hell, and it’s also inflationary. That’s why the attack on Iran has led bond yields (and mortgage rates) to jump. The market is particularly worried about the impact of energy prices on US inflation. And the Fed will be less likely to cut rates if a prolonged war sends CPI higher.
