Flex Group Real Estate is a full-service real estate brokerage in Austin, Texas, that sells homes for a 1% listing commission, represents buyers, and handles commercial real estate.

The 1% listing commission refers to listing-side compensation only. The seller separately negotiates and offers a buyer's agent commission (commonly 2–3%), disclosed in writing on the listing agreement. All commissions are negotiable.
Three ways Austin owners work with us
Listing agent
Selling a house in Austin
Austin inventory is up and prices are off their 2022 peak. That means a 3% listing fee is coming out of a smaller equity number than it was three years ago, and a home that's priced wrong sits for ninety days instead of nine. On a $400,000 sale, 3% is $12,000; Flex Group's 1% is $4,000, which could keep $8,000 in your pocket. Same Unlock MLS, same photography, same 3D tour, same negotiation. Paid only at closing.
Buyer's agent
Buying a home in Austin
Today's Austin buyer has leverage that didn't exist in 2021: longer days on market, price reductions, seller concessions on rate buydowns and closing costs. We know which Crestview and Allandale streets still move in a week and which Northwest Hills and Steiner Ranch listings have been sitting long enough to negotiate hard. We negotiate for the seller to cover our fee as part of the offer. A Buyer Representation Agreement is signed before any showing.
Commercial
Commercial real estate in Austin
Flex Group's Austin office brokers flex space, small industrial, retail, and multifamily for owners, tenants, and investors across Travis and Williamson counties. If you own a building in the Anderson Lane, Burnet Road, or Cedar Park corridors and want a sale or lease-up strategy, that's a different conversation from a house, and we have it every week.
1% is a better-run brokerage, not a cheaper one.
Austin's big brokerages built their 3% listing fee during a market where everything sold in a weekend. The fee stayed; the market didn't. What sells an Austin house in 2026 is honest pricing against the last ninety days of closed comps, photography, a 3D tour for out-of-state buyers, MLS syndication, and a broker who can hold a deal together through an appraisal gap.
Flex Group runs lean. Photographer, 3D scanner, and ad manager are in-house. No downtown office tower, no team split, no franchise fee. The 2% difference is your equity.
If the numbers on your house don't favor listing right now, we'll say so. In this market, sometimes the right answer is to wait, and you should hear that from your broker.
Presentation and pricing decide whether an Austin home sells in three weeks or ninety days
Austin is not one market. Crestview and Allandale bungalows on quarter-acre lots price on land and school zone. Mueller prices on walkability and HOA. Steiner Ranch and Lakeway price on views, lake access, and commute. A metro median tells you nothing about any of them. We price from closed comps inside your neighborhood, and in the current market we tell you the number that sells, not the number that feels good.

The Austin team
RJ Avery, Principal & Managing Broker
RJ Avery built Flex Group around one idea: a seller should pay for the work that moves the home, not for a commission floor the industry refuses to touch. He has sold real estate in Texas for almost 20 years, through three market cycles, and runs the 1% model because the math works. Every Austin listing proposal is reviewed by RJ personally.

Questions Austin sellers and buyers ask
Is Flex Group a low-commission or discount brokerage?
Neither. Flex Group Real Estate is a full-service brokerage that charges a 1% listing commission because it runs lean. Photography, 3D Matterport tour, drone, Unlock MLS and portal syndication, Meta advertising, showings, open houses, negotiation, and contract-to-close are all included.
How do I sell my house in Austin for 1%?
Call (737) 284-1912 or request a home value. Flex Group pulls closed comps from your neighborhood, RJ reviews the property, and you get a written 1% listing proposal within one business day. Photography and the 3D tour are scheduled the same week you sign, and the listing goes live on Unlock MLS. The 1% is paid only at closing.
Is it really 1%? What's the catch?
No catch. Flex Group's fee is 1% of the sale price, listing-side, paid only at closing. No retainer, no setup fee, no add-on charges for photography or marketing. The seller separately negotiates a buyer's agent commission, disclosed in writing on the listing agreement. All commissions are negotiable.
Do I still pay a buyer's agent commission when I sell in Austin?
In a typical Texas transaction after the 2024 NAR settlement, the seller offers a separately negotiated buyer's agent commission, commonly 2–3%. In today's Austin market that offer is part of what makes a listing competitive, and RJ will recommend the right number for your neighborhood. That is separate from Flex Group's 1%.
Will my Austin home sell slower at 1%?
No. In Austin right now, days on market is decided by pricing against the last ninety days of closed comps and by presentation. A Flex Group listing goes on the same Unlock MLS with the same photography and 3D tour a 3% listing gets. Buyers never see the commission; they see the listing.
Does Flex Group handle commercial real estate in Austin?
Yes. The Austin office brokers flex space, small industrial, retail, and multifamily sales and leases for owners, tenants, and investors in Travis and Williamson counties. Call (737) 284-1912 and ask for the commercial side.
Which areas does the Austin office cover?
Austin, Cedar Park, Leander, Round Rock, Pflugerville, Lakeway, West Lake Hills, Buda, Kyle, and Travis and Williamson counties. Flex Group also has offices serving Forney, Frisco, and Dallas.

Video transcript: Stop paying 3% to sell in Austin
If you're selling your home in Austin, Texas, stop paying 3%. The typical agent you're going to find is going to try to charge you 3%. On a $400,000 home, which is the relative average price, that's $12,000 in commission. So your house has been on the market for 60 days and it's not selling. Why is that? It's the price. In reality, the 3% doesn't buy you a better listing. It just costs you. At Flex Group Real Estate, we charge 1%. Not because we cut corners, but because we run a leaner business plan. You still get professional photography, 3D Matterport tours, full negotiation assistance, pricing assistance, showing assistance, open houses if you like, targeted Meta ads, and all the things you would expect from your typical real estate agent. The older the neighborhood is, the more you may want to consult a local real estate agent. We have nearly 100 properties under management here in the North Texas and Austin areas. Type in your address on the form below. I'll pull your comps personally and send you my 1% listing proposal.
Flex Group Real Estate also serves Forney, Frisco, and Dallas.

Commission disclosure (TREC §535.155): The 1% listing commission described on this page refers to Flex Group Real Estate's listing-side compensation only. In every transaction, the seller separately negotiates and offers a buyer's agent commission (commonly 2–3%), which is disclosed in writing on the listing agreement per current Texas practice following the 2024 NAR settlement. All commissions are always negotiable. Savings figures are illustrative examples based on a $400,000 sale price and are not a guarantee of net proceeds on any specific home.
Buyer representation: Seller-paid buyer's agent commission is negotiated as part of each individual offer and is not guaranteed. The buyer remains responsible for any commission owed under the Buyer Representation Agreement that is not covered by the seller at closing.
