(Patriot.Buzz) – In a stunning blow to California’s tech dominance, Real Estate company Realtor.com has announced its headquarters relocation from Santa Clara to Austin, Texas.
This action underscores the mass exodus of businesses fleeing California’s oppressive policies for the freedom-loving Lone Star State.
As liberals continue to destroy the Golden State’s economy, conservative-run Texas stands poised to become America’s new economic powerhouse.
Realtor.com’s decision to abandon California for Texas is part of a larger trend of companies seeking refuge from high taxes, stifling regulations, and the deteriorating quality of life in left-leaning states.
The real estate giant cited Austin’s strong talent pool, economic growth, and housing affordability as key factors in its decision—all hallmarks of conservative governance.
Texas Governor Greg Abbott celebrated the move, emphasizing the positive impact on the state’s booming housing market.

The Lone Star State’s commitment to freedom and prosperity is evident in its stellar economic performance.
Texas leads the nation in building affordable homes, accounting for a whopping 15% of U.S. permitted housing units in 2024.
This pro-growth approach starkly contrasts California’s suffocating regulations that have created a housing crisis and driven middle-class families out of the state.
Realtor.com’s CEO Damian Eales said in a statement:
“Austin and Texas offer a strong and growing talent pool, a powerhouse economy with unparalleled housing growth, affordability of living only matched by its aspirational lifestyle, expansive tech and academic communities, and a dynamic and vibrant city at the heart of the thriving state of Texas.”
“There is no better place for us to call home. Over the coming years we are committed to growing our presence by hiring great local talent and by bringing new recruits to Texas,” he continued.
The exodus from California to Texas is not limited to businesses. Over 25% of Texas home shoppers last year were from out of state, with many fleeing the failed policies of Democrat-run states.
This influx of new residents is expected to propel Texas to become the most populous state in the U.S. by 2045, surpassing California and cementing its status as an economic juggernaut.
Moreover, Realtor.com joins a growing list of prominent companies that have relocated to Texas, including Tesla, Charles Schwab, and Oracle.
These moves are a resounding vote of confidence in conservative economic policies that prioritize freedom, low taxes, and minimal government interference.
The company plans to hire hundreds more employees in the coming years, focusing on technology, engineering, marketing, and senior leadership roles.
This influx of high-paying jobs will further boost Austin’s thriving economy and solidify Texas’s position as the top destination for businesses seeking to escape the crushing weight of liberal policies.
As California continues its downward spiral, driven by radical leftist agendas and fiscal irresponsibility, Texas stands as a shining example of what conservative leadership can achieve.
The Realtor.com relocation is just the latest proof that freedom-loving Americans and businesses are voting with their feet, choosing prosperity and opportunity over the failed promises of big government.
