$495,000 - 48 E East Avenue 1706, Austin

Built for income, designed for flexibility, and positioned in the only downtown Austin high-rise that actually allows it. There’s also an opportunity to scale. A second, nearly identical unit next door, Unit 1707, is available and can be purchased together, creating efficiency in management and a stronger overall investment position. This 17th-floor residence is fully furnished and already performing as a short-term rental, with an established Airbnb presence, strong reviews, and a management setup that can transfer seamlessly. No ramp-up, no guessing. It’s already in motion. Inside, the layout is clean and efficient with floor-to-ceiling windows, an open flow, and a modern kitchen finished with sleek European-style cabinetry and premium appliances. Every piece, from furniture to décor, is dialed in to attract bookings and maximize usability. Natiivo operates with a hospitality-driven model, offering a rooftop pool with cabanas, fitness center with yoga and Peloton studios, co-working spaces, café and bar, plus 24-hour concierge and valet. It’s built to support both owners and guests at a high level. Walkability is a major driver here, with Rainey Street, Lady Bird Lake, and some of Austin’s top restaurants and nightlife just outside the door.
