Roxanne Bales is a native Texan and was born and raised in Houston, Texas. She graduated from Bellaire High School in 1994. In 1995, Roxanne moved to Austin where she attended Austin Community College (ACC) and then Texas State University. While attending ACC, she worked part-time in the banking industry and within six months had received her very first promotion. Her entrepreneurial spirit kicked in at a young age when she helped establish a specialty food business in 1997 that is still in operation today. In 2001, Roxanne moved to Hermosa Beach, California, where she lived and worked over the next seven years. During this time she was made the VP of Sales and Marketing, West Coast Region, for the company that she had previously helped establish. The company's specialty foods are still seen today in thousands of grocery stores throughout the United States, including Whole Foods, Central Market and HEB. Roxanne subsequently moved back to the Austin area in 2007. She loves what she does and it shows in her work. Her life experiences taught her how, and, most importantly when to get aggressive on her client's behalf; but also, when to provide that all-important human touch. The words no or sorry, that just can't be done, are not in her vocabulary. To her, there is always a way to get over, around or through any difficulty. Her drive and passion come naturally in life and in business. Roxanne has gone above and beyond just getting the standard real estate license. While continuously educating herself in an ever-changing market, she has received numerous industry certifications and designations across the industry. Those designations include: * SRS Sellers Representative Specialist * ABR Accredited Buyers Representative * GREEN Designation (Specializing in green building awareness) * GRI Graduate, RealtorAA(R) Institute * CLHMS Certified Luxury Home Marketing Specialist * CRS Council of Residential Specialists Roxanne treats all of her clients - regardless of price range - with the exact same level of dedication, commitment, attention to detail, and perseverance. When she is not helping her clients buy or sell their homes, she enjoys playing drums, traveling the world with her family, dancing the Texas two-step, exercising, cooking and spending time with her two, very well-trained Pomeranians. Thank you for choosing me and my team! -Roxanne Bales

Roxanne is an absolute pleasure to work with. This is my second property using Roxanne as a realtor, and I will go nowhere else. She is prompt, responsive, professional and her work ethic is unmatched. She makes sure she understands what the client wants and what they are looking for. Roxanne goes the extra mile to make sure all of the challenges of purchasing a home are taken care of. She brings a tremendous amount of value to the experience and continues to do so after closing. I highly recommend Roxanne as your next realtor.

Stumbled across Roxanne while looking online while I lived out of state. Talking to her I told her what I was looking for BUT that I was 3 years out so I didnt need all the calls/emails (was precovid). She respected my wishes and when we got closer she showed me around and decided to build. Well of course Covid happened and builders werent writing contracts on to be builts. Long story short she stayed on the builder and we finally went to contract. She defended our interests and kept us updated (we were still out of state) and now 2 years from contract we have moved in. I would highly recommend Roxanne!!!

Roxanne is an amazing realtor. She really cares to find you the best fit home for your needs and she does not give up even in this crazy market. Roxanne is always a joy with her pleasant manner and professionalism. She has a cache of resources from lending to handymen and will help you long after the sale. Negotiation is not fun but Roxanne was skilled in the many interactions with the other agent and I feel we got a great result. Highly recommend her!!

Roxanne was with us all the way through a home purchase that lasted over four months due to unique circumstances with COVID-19 delays and a deep winter freeze. Her experience with builder relationships helped us to prioritize what to ask for and when to ask for it! We enjoyed Roxannes enthusiasm for real estate and her fun attitude. We owe a lot to her for getting us into this beautiful new home!!

At the beginning of COVID, my fiancA(C)e and I visited some family in Lakeway. We realized how nice it would be to start a family near Austin, but we didnt know the place at all. We were hesitant to make such a big decision because wed never lived outside the Chicago area. My fiancA(C)es parents had a good experience buying a home through Roxanne and recommended we work with her. I'm glad we did! Roxanne took EXCELLENT care of us. She helped us get familiar with the area by sharing her honest opinions about each neighborhood without holding back. She let us work at our own pace. We appreciated all the little things she did to cover our tails as buyers, and made everything super easy and stress free for us. We felt like she really had our back. And now were proud homeowners thanks to her! Other huge pluses: - She was extremely familiar with Lakeway, the area we purchased. - Her husband is a mortgage broker and got us a very competitive rate. They work great as a team as its in their best interest to have your closing go smoothly. - Roxanne is connected with trusted contractors/home service professionals in the area. This saved us a ton of time. Clearly, wed be happy to work with her again and recommend her for anyone searching for homes near Lake Travis/West Austin. If you want an agent whos really on the ball, you cant go wrong with Roxanne Bales.

Roxanne hustled to stay on top of the buying process, to keep me informed of the progress and to keep us on track for next steps. She worked well with the other realtor, mortgage lender and previous owner.

The house Roxanne sold for a single man, childless, who lived in it alone, was a real challenge. The owner moved to Assisted Living, and his house, though undamaged, was a terrible mess. ( I worked with Roxanne on his behalf.) Even after a lot of volunteers spent countless hours removing material, the job was not finished. Liquidators declined to bid, so Roxanne stepped in, sold what she could, and removed the rest, then contracted cleanup. All the proceeds went to the owner. She definitely earned her commission, but it was clear that her compassion for the man was the driving factor. The finest agent in my experience, by far.

She is very knowledgeable of the area and listens to her clients wants and needs. Very personal and answered all questions. She also advised that she is available after the closing to help in anyway she could. I liked that as after purchase things do come up and it is great to know someone is there to help.

Roxanne is amazing. It would have been easy to feel overwhelmed by our relocation to Texas and this purchase being our first home. Roxanne helped us feel connected and informed through every step and made sure that this process went smoothly. We are so lucky that we found her, honestly! She was excellent to work with and we HANDS DOWN recommend her!

Roxanne Bales provided her real estate services and expertise when I purchased my first home this past summer. She was wonderful to work with, and I am thrilled with the aEURoeend resultaEUR?! My experience with Roxanne started with excellent communication and fast service. This quality service and communication continued through the entire process, and she went out of her way to follow up on every offer, contract, and negotiation with both myself and the seller. It was obvious, working with Roxanne, that she is extremely knowledgeable and has a thorough understanding of various market factors and real estate trends. Her recommendations and explanations throughout the entire process were spot-on, and it was clear from the start that Roxanne had my best interests in mind. She was very patient with me as well. Roxanne is excellent at what she does, and it was a real pleasure to work with her. I will definitely recommend Roxanne to anyone I know in the market in my area. Further, I look forward to working with her again at some point in the future, as either a buyer or seller.

I first talked with Roxanne while just browsing online for vacation homes in the Austin area. About a year later my husband an I were in Austin for a conference, and while he was in meetings, on a whim I called Roxanne to show me some properties. She was out of town but arranged for an associate to meet with me. After we returned to Colorado we narrowed our search to two properties which were both building sites. Roxanne went over and beyond visiting the sites, taking pictures of the lots, and negotiating for us. We decided to build a cottage at The Reserve at Lake Travis and are thrilled with our choice. Roxanne was very professional throughout the entire process, and we felt she was truly looking out us during the process. We whole heartedly recommend Roxanne to anyone looking for a great realtor.

Roxanne is wonderful! Not only is she professional, knowledgeable and successful she is a great person. She made us feel as though our home was most important. She shared all her research as well as kept us up to date with exactly what she currently had done and planning on doing! She quickly found us a rental when we first moved to Austin, she worked closely with us while building our new home and successfully sold that home when we were transferred.

I wish there were 10 STARS to choose from! If there were, I would give Roxanne all the stars! Roxanne was my realtor for two different transactions: both selling my home and buying a new one! She was thorough, knowledgeable, sensitive to my asking price and very helpFul in the shopping process. Always excited, eager to help and hard working, I would recommend Roxanne to anyone! Nothing but shining stars for this realtor!!

A pleasure to work with Roxanne. Very knowledgeable and organized. Always kept us informed. We have sold 5 houses over the years. This was by far the quickest and smoothest sale we have had.

Roxanne Bales is the finest residential realtor in the United States. I have dealt with many fine realtors in the purchase and sale of homes valued to more than $10 million. None have exceeded the technical knowledge, customer commitment, precision, drive, integrity, and imagination of Roxanne Bales. With unfailing good humor and charm, Ms. Bales collects, analyzes, and synthesizes community, property, and market data enabling her clients to make sound decisions. Beyond this, as a human being, Ms. Bales is a great success. I've seen her treat all people with great respect, move deals and processes along without drama, and deliver outstanding results with sincere good cheer. She is unpretentious and genuine. Whether buying or selling, Roxanne Bales should be your first call.

Roxanne has great communication skill and people skill, very quick in responding to our questions and requests and get our property lease out very quickly. We are very pleased with her professionalism . We are out of state real estate investors and it can be quite inconvenient for us to take care of some issues but Roxanne went above and beyond to help us out and we really appreciate it. We highly recommend her!
