*While I am a licensed Realtor®, I am not acting as your Realtor. Every real estate situation is unique, so please consult a professional who can provide advice tailored to your needs.*
As we wrapped up 2025, we took a step back to reflect on what we accomplished, how we served our clients, and why so many people continue to trust us with some of the most important decisions of their lives. This page exists for one simple reason: to give you clear, verifiable reasons why working with T. Kerr Property Group and the Russ Phillips Team is different.
Not louder. Not flashier. Just proven.
Proven Results You Can Verify
In 2025 alone, our team closed over 202 transactions and exceeded $110 million in total sales volume. Those transactions spanned an exceptionally wide range, from homes around $190,000 to luxury properties exceeding $3.5 million, as well as large tracts of land, single-family homes, townhomes, and condominiums.
Between T. Kerr Property Group and the Russ Phillips Team, we have collectively closed more than 3,500 real estate transactions across Central Texas. This depth of experience means we have navigated nearly every scenario imaginable, across multiple market cycles, not just the easy years.
Our production and rankings have been independently reviewed using MLS-based data and third-party reporting, ensuring transparency and accuracy.
Performance That Outperforms the Market
A third-party analysis confirmed what our clients experience firsthand:
- Our listings sell for 5.2% more than the average agent’s listings
- Our homes sell 39 days faster than market averages
- While industry-wide contract cancellation rates in 2025 hovered around 20%, our cancellation rate was approximately 8%
That difference comes from proactive preparation, honest pricing strategies, strong negotiation, and a transaction process designed to anticipate problems before they derail a deal.
Leadership That Shapes How We Serve
Between founders Tanya Kerr and Russ Phillips, our leadership team brings 33 years of combined real estate experience, not including the broader team. Tanya has personally been in real estate for over eight years, while Russ brings more than 24 years of industry experience.
Tanya’s leadership philosophy is rooted in her background as a former assistant principal. Leading teams in education taught her that great leaders do not just give instructions. They teach people how to think, motivate individuals to be their best selves, and have the hard conversations that create growth, momentum, and change when needed.
That philosophy shapes how our team operates, how we communicate, and how we advocate for our clients.
National Recognition and Industry Trust
We started 2025 strong and continued building momentum throughout the year.
- Invited speaker at Keller Williams Family Reunion, one of the largest real estate conferences in the world
- Recognized as a Top 100 Keller Williams Team, providing access to national masterminds with Gary Keller, Jason Abrams, and Jay Papasan
- Recipient of the Austin Business Journal Residential Real Estate Award (2025)
- PT50 Winners (2025)
- ABJ Women in Business Award Nominee (2025)
- Featured in Real Producers, with additional coverage forthcoming
- Voted Best in Georgetown Real Estate Team (2024), with 2025 results pending
- Voted Best of Round Rock, earning second place for Best Real Estate Team and second place for Best Real Estate Agent
These recognitions matter because they come from peers, industry leaders, and the communities we serve, not self-declared marketing claims.
Trusted at the Local Level
Our team has been independently ranked as:
- #1 in Williamson County for listings sold and buyers represented
- #2 team in Travis County by volume
- #1 agent in Travis County for listings sold and buyers represented by units
We are deeply rooted in Round Rock, Georgetown, Austin, and surrounding Central Texas markets, with hyperlocal expertise that shows up in our pricing strategies, negotiation skills, and resale outcomes.
What We’re Most Proud Of
Numbers matter, but outcomes matter more. Some of our proudest moments from 2025 include:
- Successfully increasing an appraisal by $100,000 to save a transaction
- Navigating a very complex encroachment situation for a seller so that he could sell his property
- Taking over listings that had sat on the market for a year with no traction and selling them within days or weeks, often multiple times throughout the year
- Stepping in when deals went sideways, including coordinating last-minute solutions like removing items that buyers failed to handle
- Guiding those grieving through complex decisions with patience, care, and clarity
- Helping families relocate from out of the country and purchase homes sight unseen with confidence
- Helping clients start a new chapter, whether that meant moving into a larger home or downsizing into something more manageable
- Providing clients a place to live during transition
This is what advocacy looks like in real life.
Reviews That Reflect Real Experiences
Our commitment to service is reflected in over 600 five-star reviews across major platforms. These reviews consistently highlight clear communication, strong advocacy, expert negotiation ability, industry expertise, calm leadership and support, and results that speak for themselves.
Service Beyond the Transaction
Real estate is a relationship business, not just a transactional one. Our clients are not just clients. They are friends, family, and people we genuinely enjoy doing life with.
In 2025, we hosted over a dozen client appreciation events, creating space to connect, celebrate milestones, and simply spend time together outside of contracts and closings. Especially in a year when real estate and business felt like a wild ride at times, those moments of connection mattered.
- Proud supporters of Key2Free and several nonprofit organizations serving women in our community
- Participants in the Round Rock Fourth of July Parade, supporting local events and connection
- Organized and executed a community donation effort following devastating floods in Kerr County and parts of Williamson County, resulting in multiple truckloads of supplies delivered directly to those in need
Giving back and staying connected are not add-ons for us. They are part of how we do business.
Our Values
Our entire team is aligned around a shared set of values:
- We commit to excellence in our craft.
- We pursue growth.
- We are client-centric.
- We treat ourselves and others with dignity and respect.
- We lead with optimism.
These values are not aspirational. They show up in how we advise, negotiate, and support our clients every single day.
Why Clients Choose Us
Clients work with T. Kerr Property Group because they want clarity, not hype. They want honest guidance, strong negotiation, and a team that knows how to protect their interests when it matters most.
2025 reminded us that real estate and business are rarely linear. Markets shift. Lives change. What stays constant is the importance of trust, relationships, and leadership that shows up when things are hard.
Russ Phillips and Tanya Kerr are incredibly proud of what they have built together. Blending deep experience with fresh perspective, old hat with new boots, has created something that works. A team aligned around shared values, committed to service, and focused on helping people move forward with confidence.
Whether you are buying, selling, relocating, downsizing, or navigating a complex situation, our role is to make sure you feel informed, supported, and confident from start to finish.
