What Our Clients Say About Spicewood / Lake Travis
“Loraloma wasn't on our list until Cara mentioned it. We wanted acreage near Lake Travis with good schools and she said Loraloma had all of that with less competition than Bee Cave or Lakeway. We drove out on a Saturday and fell in love with the terrain — rolling hills, big oaks, very few neighbors. We closed on five acres with a custom home and our kids are in Lake Travis ISD. Cara saw what we needed before we did.”
- G. Ellis (Buyer), Loraloma
“We sold our Loraloma property through Joe after deciding the commute to Austin was too much for us. He was honest that acreage properties in 78669 can take a bit longer to sell because the buyer pool is more specific. He priced it to attract the right kind of buyer — someone looking for space and privacy, not convenience. We had an offer from a couple relocating from Denver within six weeks. Joe managed the whole thing smoothly.”
- W. Pratt (Seller), Loraloma
“We built our Canyon Ranch house twelve years ago and were worried it would be a hard sell given how much new construction is nearby. Cara put together a pricing strategy that highlighted what our home had that the new builds don't — mature landscaping, a finished garage workshop, and established trees. Sold in under a month for asking price. She really understood how to position an older home in a new-build market.”
- K. Nguyen (Seller), Canyon Ranch
“Every ZIP code in Austin tells a different story. Spicewood / Lake Travis (78669) has its own personality - the schools, the commute, the lot sizes, and the neighborhood feel are all distinct. We walk our clients through these differences so they find the right fit, not just the right price.”
