Real estate in Austin

Real estate businesses help people buy, sell, and value homes and other property. Many offer buyer representation, seller representation, home valuation, home staging, and marketing for listings, and some also handle distressed property sales, as-is cash offers, or off-market properties. Before you commit to one, ask how they are paid, whether they represent you or the other side, and what recent sales of comparable homes they would use to price your property. Check that the agent or company is licensed with the Texas Real Estate Commission. If you are selling, call a few weeks before you want to list so there is time to compare pricing advice and prepare the home.
