Sunrise Beach Village sits on the southern shore of Lake LBJ in Llano County, about 43 miles west of Austin. It was founded in 1958 as a resort and retirement community and incorporated in 1973, and it’s organized into two areas — the core village and the Sandy Harbor section. With a population of well under a thousand, it’s a small, close-knit market, and that’s exactly why local familiarity matters more here than it would somewhere bigger.
I’m Robbie English, REALTOR and Broker at Uncommon Highland Lakes Realty, and I work Sunrise Beach directly rather than delegating it. I’ve spent decades in real estate and I also train agents nationally as a speaker and instructor, so the strategy I bring to your transaction has been tested well beyond one market.

Why Sunrise Beach Real Estate Isn’t Like Other Markets
Homes in Sunrise Beach are often second homes, retirement properties, or long-term investments, which changes how they trade compared to a primary-residence market. With decades in the Highland Lakes, I’ve worked waterfront properties and interior lots alike, and I stay sharp by continuing to teach other agents nationally — it keeps me current on what’s actually working, not just what worked five years ago.
Strategy, Not a Sales Pitch
My job is to understand your goals first, then build a plan around them — strategic pricing if you’re selling, careful negotiation if you’re buying. That means being upfront about earnest money, option periods, and disclosures so you’re never guessing what comes next.
Local Knowledge and Network
Sunrise Beach has its own rhythms — some properties move quietly before they’re widely marketed, and knowing which offer terms local sellers actually value can be the difference between landing a home and missing it. I’ve built relationships in this community over years, and that local knowledge extends past the transaction itself: reliable inspectors, questions about short-term rental rules, or well water considerations if a property isn’t on municipal water.
Buying in Sunrise Beach
Some homes here never hit the open market, and some look better in photos than in person. I’ll help you evaluate a property on structure and resale potential, not just curb appeal, and walk you through every step of the offer and closing process.
Selling in Sunrise Beach
Pricing and presentation both matter in a market this size. I’ll help you position your home for the buyer actually looking for Sunrise Beach specifically — often someone drawn to the lake and the retirement-community pace — with staging guidance and marketing built around that audience.
