Rose Castro

I was raised on a dairy farm in Wisconsin bringing warm-hearted values to the table such as honesty, integrity and a sympathetic ear. I’ve enjoyed being a REALTOR® since 2005, and while I can serve all of your real estate needs, I specialize in residential properties. I am passionate about giving 100% to all of my clients and after working in “Corporate America” for 16 years, I am bringing all of my management skills to my clients and my real estate business. As co-owner of Austin Options Realty and Austin Options Property Management, ASSOCIATE BROKER / REALTOR®, and owner of 15 investment properties and 5 short-term rental properties, I can ensure you are receiving the highest quality service whether you are looking to buy or sell your home, looking for investment opportunities, or looking to lease or hire a property management company to manage your investment properties.

    To begin, We want to express that Rose is an absolutely incredible Agent. From our initial meeting, all the way through to our closing, including post follow up. She did a magnificent job analyzing the market we were in, providing appropriate “comps”, to recommending reasonable upgrades to our property so we were competitive. Market price analysis, staging suggestions, and the photos and video ( with narration) was so good we laughingly thought we should stay, all this made our MLS presentation far better than anyone else’s. Rose’s attention for detail and knowledge of the Real-estate industry is unmatched. We were really not looking forward to the process of selling our house, we had lived in the same house for over 20 years, but Rose made the entire endeavor very easy. I am happy to recommend Rose to anyone Buying or selling a home..!!!!

William Banks

Hi, I’m William, I have lived in the Austin, Buda area since 1977.  I'm a retired Army Sergeant Major (SGM) with 34 years of service with deployments to Bosnia, Kuwait and Afghanistan.   I love working with Veterans to educate them on all the benefits they are entitled to. I also work with Buyers and sellers in walking them through the process from the beginning to the end. I’m a very friendly and honest person and love to share knowledge of over 12 years of Real Estate experience to make my clients dreams come true.

Recent Reviews

    I would like to commend William Banks for all the assistance that he’s supplied during my efforts to get my home rented. He has offered invaluable guidance and suggestions regarding updates and repairs, starting before I moved out. Knowing my home would be available soon, he posted a “coming soon” sign in my front yard, generating interest and showing it to people before the home was even ready. He has unquestionably gone above and beyond in helping stage and maintain my property, when I’d moved out and it was unoccupied. Some examples include installing my septic tank risers and lids, allowing contractors into my home for improvements, mowing my lawn, and power washing my driveway and sidewalk. Now I know he’ll keep an eye on my property, verifying the renters are treating the property well. William is a neighbor and friend, but I cannot say enough about how good he’s been as a representative for your company and advocate for my home.
