Why Clients Choose Us

We think like investors. Broker Ed Neuhaus owns his own portfolio including short-term rentals. We evaluate every deal the way we would for ourselves - not just whether it's a nice house, but whether it makes financial sense.

We know this market intimately. Ed lives in Bee Cave and owns property in the Hill Country. When you're looking at West Austin or the surrounding areas, you're working with a team that knows which streets flood, which HOAs are problematic, and where the real value is.

We're available but purposeful. For clients making significant real estate decisions, we provide prepared, focused consultations - not rushed phone calls between showings.

Austin Real Estate FAQ

Common questions from buyers, sellers, and investors in the Austin market.

Is Austin a buyer's market or seller's market in 2026?

As of early 2026, Austin is shifting toward a more balanced market after years of favoring sellers. Inventory has increased significantly, giving buyers more negotiating power, especially in suburban areas like Dripping Springs and Leander. However, prime locations in Westlake Hills, Bee Cave, and Lakeway remain competitive for well-priced homes. Read our full 2026 market forecast.

What are the best neighborhoods in Austin for families?

For families prioritizing schools, Bee Cave (Lake Travis ISD), Westlake Hills (Eanes ISD), and Dripping Springs (Dripping Springs ISD) consistently rank among the best. Cedar Park and Round Rock offer excellent schools at lower price points. Each area has distinct trade-offs between commute times, home prices, and lifestyle. See our neighborhood comparison guide.

How do I choose the best real estate agent in Austin?

Look for an agent with deep local knowledge of your target area, a track record of closed transactions (not just listings), and transparent communication. Avoid agents who treat every deal the same -- a first-time buyer in Cedar Park needs different expertise than a luxury seller in Westlake. At Neuhaus Realty Group, broker Ed Neuhaus brings 19 years of Austin market experience and an investor's perspective to every client relationship.

What are closing costs in Texas?

Buyers in Texas typically pay 2-5% of the purchase price in closing costs, which includes lender fees, title insurance, appraisal, and prepaid items like property taxes and homeowner's insurance. Sellers usually pay 6-8%, including agent commissions and title fees. Texas has no state income tax, but property taxes average 1.8-2.2% annually, which affects your total cost of ownership. Read our complete closing costs guide.

Is Austin good for real estate investment?

Austin remains one of the stronger markets for real estate investment in Texas, particularly for short-term rentals in tourist-friendly areas and long-term holds in high-growth corridors. Broker Ed Neuhaus owns his own investment portfolio including STRs, so we evaluate deals the way we would for ourselves -- looking at cap rates, STR revenue potential, and long-term appreciation, not just listing prices. Learn about our investment advisory services.

How do I protest my property taxes in Austin?

File your protest with the Travis County Appraisal District (TCAD) by May 15 each year. You'll need recent comparable sales data showing your home's appraised value is too high. We provide clients with CMA data they can use for protests -- the same comparable sales analysis we use for pricing homes. Most homeowners who protest get a reduction. See our step-by-step protest guide.

Ready to Make Your Move?

Whether you're buying, selling, or investing - let's have a conversation about your goals. We'll come prepared with market insights specific to your situation.
