About Us

As a third-generation Austin real estate professional, no one knows the Austin real estate market better. Chris is dedicated to providing his clients with the best service, knowledge, and results by leveraging his experience with the latest technologies and media outreach programs available. Chris prides himself on his integrity, honesty, and accountability with clients.

In addition to decades of experience as a Realtor, Chris has earned his Texas Broker’s License, demonstrating his superior knowledge, expertise, and real estate education, which affords him the ability to provide his clients with top-level success.

Chris has over 900 hours of formal real estate education as a licensed real estate broker, whereas a “normal real estate agent” is only required to attend 180 hours. Chris works with traditional buyers and sellers as well as investors. He has personally flipped over a dozen homes and understands the unique challenges of flipping in a top-heavy market like Austin.

Chris Hightower is not only a Broker but also an active investor in the Austin market. As an MBA, Chris utilizes a high-level approach to identifying and evaluating investment property for his clients. Chris has the education and the background to take the time to do what no other Realtor is willing or able to do when it comes to financial analysis.

Chris builds customized financial models from scratch for all of his investment client’s transactions to facilitate the greatest probability of maximum return. These unique models identify which neighborhoods and property profiles within those neighborhoods generate the greatest return rate for investment buyers while also considering variables unique to each of our investors and their goals. In a fast-moving market, having the right investment acquisition strategy is crucial, as neighborhood demand, values, and rates can fluctuate rapidly.

In addition to Texas, Chris has also worked internationally in Vietnam, Thailand, Russia, France, Mexico, and Indonesia. He also has proprietary experience in Austin and Houston's restaurant and bar industry.

His Texas roots run deep as a direct descendent of Sam Houston, 1st and 3rd President of the Republic of Texas, who would later serve as the first United States Senator from Texas and 7th Governor of Texas.

Chris enjoys spending time with his wife and two daughters in his off time. He can often be found enjoying live music, eating Bar-B-Que, or near a Central Texas swimming hole.
