Built like advice, not like advertising.

RA Residential is a Greater Austin brokerage led by broker-principal Rani Alowairdi. For 16 years, we've worked one market — north and south of the river, the east side, and out into the Hill Country — and we've built the firm around a simple idea: clients deserve the truth about where they're about to live.

That's why the heart of this site isn't a photo of us in front of a sold sign. It's the neighborhood guides — the same briefings we give clients before a first tour, published for anyone to read. Schools, commutes, tax rates, and the tradeoffs each area actually has. If you read them and never call us, they still did their job.

The three commitments

Honesty. We'll tell you when a house is overpriced, when a neighborhood doesn't fit the life you described, and when walking away is the right move. An advisor who only says yes isn't an advisor.

Experience. 16 years, one market. We've negotiated through the frenzy of 2021, the correction that followed, and every ordinary season in between. That history is the difference between guessing and knowing.

Maximum effort. A boutique firm means the person you hire is the person who shows up — for the pricing strategy, the negotiation, and the late-night call before an option period expires.

Where we work

We spent seven years with our office on East Sixth Street before going fully mobile in early 2026 — these days you're more likely to find us in the neighborhoods themselves than behind a desk. We serve the full Greater Austin metro, with deep roots in the western Hill Country corridor and the northern growth arc:

• Westlake
• Lakeway
• Bee Cave
• Dripping Springs
• Driftwood
• Georgetown
• Round Rock
• Cedar Park
• Leander
• Liberty Hill
• Pflugerville
• Manor
• Buda
• Kyle
• Central Austin
