Selling your home is a big decision.

But it’s rarely the only thing happening in your life.

Maybe you’re relocating for work.

Maybe you’ve already found your next home.

Maybe you’re ready to downsize, but you’re not sure how to coordinate selling your current home with purchasing another.

Whatever your situation looks like, your selling strategy should account for more than just the asking price.

Your timeline matters.

Your financial goals matter.

And what happens after the sale matters, too.

That’s why I believe every home selling plan should begin with understanding what the seller is trying to accomplish.

Because selling your home isn’t the end goal.

It’s helping you get where you want to go next.

If you’re considering selling, reach out. Let’s create a plan that works for your goals and your timeline.

JUST LISTED | 6604 Liveoak Drive | Austin, TX

Looking for Lake Austin access? This is one way to do it.

6604 Liveoak Drive is officially on the market in Austin’s coveted 78746, bringing together a 3,297-square-foot home, per appraiser, a tree-covered corner lot, and a rare benefit that’s hard to replicate.

Ownership includes membership in the private Aqua Verde Association, subject to AVAI bylaws. Members have access to the neighborhood recreational facility and three shared boat slips for temporary overnight use.

But there’s more to this home than its access to the water.

A major addition and remodel expanded the home to include four bedrooms, three baths, an oversized upstairs primary suite with a dedicated office, an enlarged kitchen, laundry room, and additional living space.

Outside, a 580-square-foot deck and 225-square-foot screened cabana extend the living space outdoors, while a two-car garage and separate framed storage/workshop building add even more functionality to the property.

The home also reflects thoughtful updates over the years, including a new GAF Timberline dimensional roof and gutters in 2021, added blown-in attic insulation, and extensive indigenous landscaping supported by an irrigation system.

Reach out today for additional property details or to schedule a private showing.

When a client trusts you to help them sell a property and purchase their next home, that trust means everything.

Andrew and Anna experienced both sides of the process with us, from preparing and positioning their property for sale to finding and negotiating their next home outside of the Austin market.

Different properties. Different goals. Different challenges.

But the same commitment to preparation, communication, strategy, and being there for our clients every step of the way.

Reviews like this are why we do what we do, and we’re incredibly grateful when clients take the time to share their experience.

Thank you, Andrew and Anna, for trusting us! It was a privilege to be part of both chapters.

Process Leads to Performance.

SOLD | Desert Willow

Buying a new home while selling your current one can come with a lot of moving pieces.

For Connor and his family, our goal was to make the entire process as smooth as possible.

While helping them purchase their dream home, we were also able to find the right buyer for their current home without ever putting it on the public market. Their home sold quickly and for a higher price than they expected.

That’s where having the right strategy and support can make such a difference.

When you’re navigating both sides of a move, timing matters. Communication matters. Preparation matters. And most importantly, you deserve an agent who understands the entire picture and can guide you through each step along the way.

Feedback like this is why we do what we do:

“Working with Chris was amazing. He was able to sell our house quickly, off of MLS for a higher price than we thought we were going to get. We will be working with Chris again in the future.”

For me, it’s about helping clients get where they want to go and making the path from one home to the next easier to navigate.

Congratulations to Connor and his family on their new home and this exciting next chapter!

If you’re thinking about buying your next home while selling your current one, reach out. Let’s talk through what that process could look like for you.

PRE-MLS OPEN HOUSE Sunday, September 13 | 2–5 PM | 6604 Liveoak Drive | Austin, TX

Some homes come with a lake view.

This one comes with a key to the water, and a low tax rate!

At 6604 Liveoak Drive, ownership includes membership in the private Aqua Verde Association, giving you access to a neighborhood recreational facility on Lake Austin with three boat slips shared among members for temporary overnight use.

And with only 24 memberships, this isn’t something that comes with just any home in the neighborhood.

Then there’s the property itself.

Picture a flat corner lot shaded by more than 20 mature trees, including 10 live oaks standing over 50 feet tall.

Inside, you’ll find 3,297 square feet per appraiser, including four bedrooms and an expansive upstairs primary suite.

Out back, a 580-square-foot deck and 225-square-foot screened cabana create even more space to enjoy the property.

All in Austin’s coveted 78746 and zoned to Eanes ISD.

And you don’t have to wait for it to hit the MLS to see it.

Homes on Liveoak trade rarely. Lake access like this trades even less.

Come experience 6604 Liveoak Drive this weekend before it officially hits the market!

What if your next Rockport property already came with $55K in instant equity?

That’s just one reason to take a closer look at 620 Fulton Beach Road.

This bayfront corner unit brings together some of the features that make coastal ownership so appealing: breathtaking water views, a dedicated boat slip, access to Little Bay, and STR earning potential.

Inside, you’ll find 1,414 square feet per appraiser with 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. Upstairs, the enormous primary closet is currently being used as an additional bedroom, creating even more flexibility within the space.

And because it’s a corner unit with only one shared wall, there’s an added level of privacy.

Recent updates to the seawall, boat slips, and Little Bay access add even more to what this property has to offer.

An appraisal report is available upon request.

If you’ve been looking for a place in Rockport where you can enjoy the coast, get out on the water, and explore STR earning potential, this one is worth a closer look.

Reach out today for property details, the appraisal report, or to schedule a showing.

After 38 years in real estate, there are still moments in this career that I’ll never forget.

This was one of them.

I recently had the privilege of representing my two daughters in the purchase of a home in the Rosedale area of Austin.

As their dad, I couldn’t be prouder of the women they’ve become, and getting to help them take this next step made the experience even more special.

I’m looking forward to seeing them settle into their new home and everything this next chapter of life brings.

Being their Realtor was pretty special, but being their dad will always be the best part.

So proud and incredibly blessed. ❤️

Love you T & Peanut!

Most sellers think negotiation starts when an offer comes in.

By then, a lot of the negotiating has already happened.

The condition of your home influences how buyers perceive its value.

Your pricing influences how seriously they take the opportunity.

Your marketing influences how much attention the property receives.

And buyer demand influences how much leverage you have when it’s finally time to negotiate.

That’s why I don’t look at negotiation as something that happens at the end of the process.

It starts with the decisions we make before your home ever hits the market.

Preparation creates confidence.

Pricing creates positioning.

Marketing creates demand.

And demand creates leverage.

After 36 years in real estate, I’ve learned that some of the strongest negotiations are won before anyone ever writes an offer.

If you’re thinking about selling, reach out. Let’s talk about how to put you in the strongest position from day one.
