I’m Robbie English, REALTOR and Broker for Uncommon Highland Lakes Realty. Burnet is the county seat of Burnet County, roughly 50 miles northwest of Austin, and it’s a market I work actively — not one I just claim on a website. Being a broker rather than a standard agent means I carry additional licensing requirements and direct responsibility for every transaction my office handles.
I’m also a national real estate speaker and instructor, teaching negotiation and contract strategy to other agents around the country. The same strategy shows up in every transaction I handle here.
What the Broker Distinction Means for You
When something unusual comes up — a contract contingency, an inspection issue, a title question — a broker doesn’t need to escalate it to someone else. I already have the answer, or I know exactly how to get it resolved quickly.
Burnet’s real estate market ranges from in-town properties to acreage and ranch-style homes outside the city limits, which means pricing depends a lot on lot size, water rights, and access — not just square footage. I price and market listings around those specifics rather than a generic town-wide average.
What I Actually Do for Buyers and Sellers
If you’re buying, I’ll walk you through what a property’s price actually reflects — acreage, improvements, comparable recent sales — before you make an offer. If you’re selling, I’ll give you a pricing strategy based on what’s closing in Burnet right now, along with a marketing plan built around your specific property instead of a template.
My team and I at Uncommon Highland Lakes Realty handle transactions directly — you’re working with me, not a rotating cast of assistants.
You can browse current Burnet listings if you’d like to see what’s on the market.
