I’m Robbie English, REALTOR and Broker at Uncommon Highland Lakes Realty, and my team and I work Marble Falls real estate — a market that’s grown fast over the last several years as more buyers looking at Austin’s rising prices have shifted their search 49 miles northwest into Burnet County and the Highland Lakes region.
I’m also a national real estate speaker and instructor, teaching negotiation and pricing strategy to agents across the country. That’s the same material my team and I use on behalf of our own Marble Falls clients.
TL;DR
- Marble Falls is in Burnet County, about 48 miles from Austin, and has seen steady growth as buyers look outside Austin for value.
- My team and I handle both buy-side and sell-side transactions across Marble Falls, from lakefront to acreage to in-town listings.
- I’m a national real estate speaker and instructor as well as a working broker.
- I stay personally involved in pricing and negotiation strategy on every deal my team handles.
What My Team Focuses On
Marble Falls real estate covers a lot of ground — lakefront property on Lake Marble Falls itself (a small lake, just under six miles long, so true waterfront inventory is limited), acreage outside the city limits, and in-town homes closer to the historic downtown. Each of those needs different pricing logic and a different buyer pool, so my team and I build pricing and marketing around the specific sub-market a property is in, not a blanket Marble Falls average.
On the buy side, we walk clients through the details that matter for this area specifically — water well and septic considerations on acreage, ag exemption status if a property has one, and flood plain questions near the lake — before an offer goes in, not after.
Why the National Teaching Work Matters Here
Teaching negotiation and contract strategy to agents across the country keeps me current on tactics a lot of local-only agents don’t see. I bring that directly into how my team negotiates offers here in Marble Falls — I’m not setting it aside for a separate “training version.”
