Louise Bell

In real estate, knowledge matters -- and caring matters even more. Combining a lifetime of real estate expertise with a genuine dedication to her clients' goals, expert REALTOR(R) Louise Bell delivers resounding success for buyers and sellers throughout Central Texas. When asked what sets her and her team apart from the competition, Louise says, in her trademark straightforward style, "We actually give a damn." Leading the Limestone Realty Group at Compass, Louise leaves no stone unturned in reaching each client's unique objectives. Meticulous and determined with tenacious negotiation skills, she's also a down-to-earth advocate who relates to people on a deeply human level. Louise listens closely, responds promptly and works harder than anyone you'll meet. Her vast experience runs the gamut from new construction sales, resales and land deals to first-time investment transactions and 1031 exchanges. It turns out that giving a damn while offering elite industry know-how and warm relatability is a winning combination: Louise has closed nearly $70 million in total transaction volume, earned numerous top-producer awards and ranked among the top 3% of Central Texas REALTORS(R) in 2021 and 2022. Born in Austin to a custom homebuilder/developer father and a real estate attorney mother, some of Louise's earliest memories include discussing zoning requirements and covenant restrictions around the dinner table. Because of this solid proving ground, she entered the industry with an outsized level of expertise. She's also been devoted to raising the bar and improving her craft ever since with numerous elective courses and training. Before real estate, Louise was in corporate sales, where she honed the dealmaking skills and empathy that continue to serve her real estate clients today. "The size of the transaction doesn't matter to me," she explains. "I just genuinely care about getting people where they need to go and into a place that makes sense to them. Most importantly, I want them to leave the transaction feeling empowered."
