In the Austin MLS (ACTRIS) alone, from Jul 2014 to Oct 2026, the team closed 470 homes totaling $276,525,505, an average sale price of $588,352, about 1.6 times the ACTRIS median of $370,660 over the same period. 52 of those closings were at $1 million or more.

The record, by the numbers.

Two sources, labeled on every row: the team's own transaction records for past developer and resale clients, which include new-construction sales that never went through the MLS, and ACTRIS closed residential sales with a current team member on the listing or buyer side.

03 · How we work

How we price and market a high-end listing.

The BKN Method in full
01

Price from closed records

We pull ACTRIS closings and the off-market comparables we track through our network, then set a price that opens the market rather than one that has to come down.

02

Prepare the home

Staging consultation, editorial photography, drone and a cinematic film, so the home reads at its price on screen and in person.

03

Choose how it is shown

Private, Unlock MLS Flex for agents first, or a full public launch. We decide with you before anything goes live.

04

Launch to the right buyers

The MLS, the SERHANT. luxury network and referring agents in the markets where Austin buyers come from, plus a dedicated property website.

05

Negotiate and close

Showings with proof of funds, offers compared on price and terms together, then survey, title and appraisal managed through closing.

04 · Questions

Before you call.

How is Bailey Kemps Nelson Group paid?

Sellers pay a listing fee that is a percentage of the sale price, agreed in writing in the listing agreement before we start and paid at closing from the proceeds. Buyers sign a written buyer representation agreement that states our compensation, which can be paid by the buyer or negotiated with the seller. Real estate commissions are not set by law and are negotiable.

How does a first call work?

A first call is a short conversation with a team lead about your goals, timing and the property. For sellers we then pull closed ACTRIS data and meet at the home with a pricing range and a launch plan. For buyers we set the search criteria and schedule private tours. There is no cost or obligation for the first conversation.

How fast do you respond?

We reply to every inquiry within one business day, and calls and texts to (512) 361-4553 usually much sooner.

Where do these numbers come from?

ACTRIS (Unlock MLS) closed residential records for the current team's agent IDs, listing or buyer side, queried on October 28, 2026. Each figure on this page shows the period it covers. Texas is a non-disclosure state, so individual sale prices are not published.
