  • Georgetown’s biggest event of the year is back—Two Step Inn 2025!

    With over 30,000 attendees expected, this country music festival is the ultimate gathering for fans across Texas. The official lineup for April 2025 has been announced, featuring some of the biggest names in country music, including Alan Jackson, Miranda Lambert, and Lynyrd Skynyrd!

  • Openings

    • K-Ramyun, which just opened with a DIY ramen setup. It’s such a fun concept, and it’s great seeing more Korean flavors popping up here. Can’t wait to try it! Read more here.

  • Closings

    • Toasted Yolk in Cedar Park. Sad to lose this one so soon. It was delish! They say they’re planning on reopening, so fingers crossed about that. Read more here.

    • Major’s Burger Company in Liberty Hill closed as well. This one was pretty beloved in the community, and lots of people are sad to see it go. Seems like their land was bought by HTea0 for a new location. One of the sad realities of growth is displacement like this. Read more here.

A Spooky Home-Sales Season đŸ‘»đŸŠ‡đŸŽƒ

Home sales are down this time of year traditionally, and now is no exception. 

If we look at it with a Halloween-tinted lens, there's a chance to find opportunities all year.

People are still on the move for various reasons—some mysterious, others unexpected—which might just lead you to that perfect deal on the house of your dreams... or perhaps, the haunted house of your nightmares 😉

Not spooked yet? Check out this BEST decorated house in Liberty Hill! đŸ‘‡

And remember buying or selling a house isn't always scary, 43 houses were sold over the last week, and interest rates held around 6.6%.
