78702 Homes for Sale - East Austin

“My wife and I bought in Holly after renting downtown for three years. Joe was the one who suggested the neighborhood — we didn't even know it by name. He walked us through the streets between Riverside and Cesar Chavez and showed us how the area connects to the trail, to Rainey, and to East Sixth. We got a three-bedroom with a garage apartment for rental income. Joe also ran the numbers on what the garage apartment would rent for, which helped us qualify for a better loan.”

“We were renting on the east side and wanted to buy before prices went any higher. Cara was honest that East Austin moves fast and that we needed to be pre-approved and ready to write offers the same day we saw a house. That urgency felt real, not manufactured. We found a renovated three-bedroom off Cesar Chavez and Cara helped us beat three other offers by structuring our terms around what the seller actually needed — a fast close with a short option period.”

“First-time buyer here. I was looking at East Austin because I work in tech downtown and didn't want a long commute. Cara showed me homes in 78702 and 78722 and was upfront about which streets were still in transition and which ones had stabilized. She pointed out a house that needed cosmetic work but had great bones and a huge yard. I got it for $30K under asking because most buyers wanted move-in ready. Cara saw the potential.”
