Frequently Asked Questions

I work in two markets: Austin (my primary public-listings market) and Dallas (off-market only). In Austin I specialize in Westlake, Lake Travis, Barton Creek, Tarrytown, Rollingwood, Bee Cave, Dripping Springs, Downtown Austin, East Austin, Lakeway, and the broader Hill Country region. In Dallas I serve Highland Park, Preston Hollow, University Park, Bluffview, and Lakewood — all through a private network rather than the public MLS.

Dallas's top luxury market — particularly Park Cities and Preston Hollow — moves a disproportionate share of homes above $5M before they ever list publicly. Builder pre-sales, multi-generational owner networks, and a clientele that prizes discretion mean the most desirable inventory is found through relationships, not MLS feeds. I've been transacting in Dallas for over a decade; my Dallas listings reach buyers through that private network.

In Austin, the luxury market generally starts at $2M+ for Hill Country estates and waterfront properties. In Dallas, Park Cities and Preston Hollow homes typically range from $3M to $15M+, with trophy estates on Strait Lane and Beverly Drive trading well above that — often privately. I work with clients across both spectrums and provide detailed market analysis for any price point.

Yes — in both markets. Through 15+ years of relationships with top builders, developers, and long-time owners across Austin and Dallas, I regularly access properties that never appear on MLS. In Dallas this is the primary way I work; in Austin it complements the public listings.

In addition to luxury home buying and selling, I offer real estate investment advisory, development consulting, and new construction guidance. My entrepreneurial background — having co-founded and scaled multiple businesses — brings an operator's perspective to investment opportunities across both Austin and Dallas growth corridors.

I begin with a private consultation to understand your goals, timeline, and preferences. Whether you're buying in Austin, exploring off-market Dallas inventory, selling, or investing, I develop a tailored strategy. There's no obligation — the first conversation is about understanding what you're looking for and how I can help.

Three things: $500M+ in transactions across Texas plus recognition as a Top 5 Producer and D Magazine Top 10 for 3+ consecutive years give me deep market expertise in both markets — most luxury agents specialize in just one. My entrepreneurial background (co-founding Buda Juice, scaling Nekter Juice Bar franchises in Dallas and Houston) means I approach real estate like a business owner, not just an agent. And my dual-market builder and owner networks unlock off-market inventory in both Austin and Dallas that most agents simply can't access.

Absolutely. Many of my clients are relocating to Austin or Dallas from other cities, and I also serve cross-Texas moves between the two markets. I provide comprehensive relocation support including neighborhood tours, school district information, lifestyle matching, and local connections to make the transition seamless.

Timelines vary by market conditions and property type. Luxury properties can take 30-90+ days to close after an offer is accepted. For sellers, a structured pre-market window often shortens public-market days and protects pricing. I'll provide realistic timelines based on your specific situation and which market you're in.
