Our Firm

E3 Properties is a full-service real estate firm, working with clients to buy and sell both green and traditional homes in Austin and surrounding areas. They work with every kind of home owners and buyers, in every shade of green. E3 Properties was founded in 2008 by four partners who wanted to focus their work and their lives on environmentally sustainable practices. All of E3’s agents are certified EcoBrokers, and are committed to continually learning the most effective and valuable ways to create, maintain, buy and sell green homes.

The brokers and agents of E3 Properties have deep knowledge of the neighborhoods in and around Austin, and work diligently to help clients to find the perfect home in the right price range. For homeowners who are selling their homes, E3 Properties will aggressively market their house and find just the right buyer. Through unique and dynamic advertising and beautiful marketing kits, our clients’ homes will stand out from the competition.

E3 Properties is a unique resource for people that want to learn more about finding and buying green properties. They also work with homeowners that are selling, and want to improve energy efficiency and other eco-friendly features to make their home more appealing to buyers. New and remodeled green homes stand out with gorgeous design, energy-efficiency and sustainable, low-impact materials. Green homes in the Austin area often utilize materials such as metal roofs, double pane windows, high R-value insulation, Energy Star appliances and ratings such as Austin Energy Green Building Program and LEED. E3’s agents are the most educated, experienced and committed green real estate brokers in Austin.

E3’s professionals make it easier to sell your home or find a perfect new space, and to share knowledge about green homes, if needed. They will walk you through each home and explain which features are energy-efficient, sustainable or eco-friendly. Even houses that aren’t rated or called “green” often have features that make them easier on Planet Earth and your utility bills. As more and more buyers are interested in green aspects of homes, it is important to have a qualified professional guide you.

The partners and brokers of E3 Properties believe that walking the walk is far more important than talking the talk, so they work hard to keep their eco-footprint tiny and green by:

  • Having a virtual office and use e-files and signatures when appropriate.
  • Using only recycled paper and other low-impact and sustainable materials.
  • Supporting and partnering with local businesses that choose green business practices.
  • Supporting environment-based volunteer activities, such as Keep Austin Beautiful Clean Sweep program.
  • Using sustainablesources.net, a local green hosting firm, to host their website.
  • Carbon-offsetting their personal vehicles with Terra Pass and Tree Folks.
  • Applying to be a certified sustainable business.
