This was the perfect house for downsizing in Steiner Ranch — fully remodeled, low maintenance, and all the main living on the first floor.
Quiet cul-de-sac. Clean finishes. Just the right amount of space.
But… it’s already sold.
If you’re looking for something like this, the best time to reach out is before it hits the market. I’m always working behind the scenes to match sellers and buyers before the rest of the neighborhood even knows.

📉 The #1 Mistake Sellers Make? Overpricing.
It sounds smart—“let’s price high and leave room to negotiate,” right? 🚨 Wrong.
Overpriced homes sit. They get ignored. And worst of all? They often sell for less than they would have with the right pricing strategy from the start.
Buyers today are savvy—they know when a home is overpriced, and they won’t bite. That’s why
I use a 3-phase strategy to privately test the market first. If your home hits the open market, we’ve already built momentum—meaning more interest, more showings, and better offers.
Thinking of selling? Let’s price it right and get you top dollar. DM me to chat!

This is the biggest lot in Bella Mar. And once you see the backyard, it’s obvious why that matters.
A two-tier pool, built-in spa, outdoor grill, and still plenty of space to do whatever else you want—without giving up privacy or backing to another yard. It’s tucked against greenbelt on a quiet street, and the entire setup feels more like a resort than a typical backyard.
Inside, you’ve got six bedrooms, a dedicated office, a media room, and two separate living areas—plenty of space, but it still feels connected and open.
If you’ve been waiting for a property in Steiner that checks all the boxes—this is one of the rare ones that actually does.

Big yards like this don’t come along often in Steiner Ranch—and when they do, they don’t last long.
This fully renovated home on a quiet cul-de-sac backed to greenbelt just sold in under a week. Flat, oversized yard. Room to spread out. Complete privacy. And just a short walk to John Simpson Park.
We had strong interest right away—because homes like this, in this part of Steiner, hit that sweet spot buyers are waiting for.
If you’re thinking about selling, timing matters. And if you’re buying, the best homes often go fast—before they hit the broader market.
Let’s connect early so you don’t miss the next one.

If I could give my 25-year-old self some advice, it wouldn’t be about working harder or playing it safe.
It would be this:
Most of what you try won’t work.
But the few things that do—they’ll change everything.
Back then, I wasn’t ready to lead a team or build a business. But I kept trying, failing, adjusting… and over time, things clicked.
Now, whether it’s the real estate market, the economy, or business in general—what I’ve learned is to stay uncomfortable. Because comfort usually means stagnation.
To anyone in a season of building: keep going. Especially when it’s not working yet.

Why More Buyers Are Choosing Steiner Ranch Over Westlake in 2025
If you’re relocating to Austin or weighing your next move, Westlake almost always makes the list—but for many of my clients, Steiner Ranch ends up being the better fit.
Here’s why:
✅ More Space – Steiner offers larger homes, bigger backyards, and a stronger sense of breathing room—especially for families.
✅ Community Feel – It’s a true neighborhood. Kids ride bikes, neighbors host block parties, and you’ll actually know the people on your street.
✅ Better Value – For the same budget, you’ll get more home and better amenities in Steiner Ranch compared to Westlake.
If you’re looking for that balance of lifestyle, community, and long-term value, Steiner Ranch is worth a serious look. And as someone who lives and works here, I can help you compare both neighborhoods with real numbers—not just opinions.
Thinking about your next move? Let’s talk.

The yard on this home is incredible—but today’s video is all about the primary suite.
Tucked quietly at the back of the house, it feels more like a retreat than just another bedroom. The updated bathroom is clean, modern, and thoughtfully designed—soaking tub, walk-in shower, and finishes that actually feel elevated.
It’s rare to find something this turnkey in Steiner Ranch, especially with privacy, greenbelt views, and a flat yard this size. And the location—just a short walk to John Simpson Park—makes it even better.
This one’s already sold, but if you’re looking for a home like this, let’s talk early. The best homes never last long.

The Buyer’s Agent Can Make or Break the Deal — Here’s Why It Matters.
When I’m selling a home, I don’t just look at the offer — I look at who’s bringing it.
Because the agent representing the buyer?
They play a huge role in how the deal plays out.
Here’s what I look for right away:
✅ Clear communication — Do they set expectations or create confusion?
✅ Follow-through — Are they responsive and proactive, or chasing chaos?
✅ Decision speed — Can they help their client move quickly when it counts?
When a strong agent is on the other side, the whole process is smoother — for everyone.
If you’re buying in a competitive market like Steiner Ranch, the right agent can be the difference between getting the home or getting passed over.
