About Russ Phillips

Digging beneath the details of a long and distinguished resume' of sales accomplishments, you find in Russ Phillips a humble family man who wants to live up to his own family history. He says "I have a legacy in my name that I want to live up to. The standard was set for me well before I arrived." As such, Russ has served the community as a Realtor, a Planning & Zoning Commissioner, a Developer, and a Volunteer. "Life is about more than work-it's about relationships, and what's great is I get to make friends while I make a living. That gives me motivation to make sure my clients LOVE where they live. Plus, I'm competitive, and I want to be the BEST at what I do." Russ kicked off his real estate career with a bang in 2003, winning Williamson County Rookie Realtor of the Year. Since then he's never slowed down. With influential Central Texas roots dating back to the 1840's, Russ has unique insights into the Austin area's past, present, and future. His family has ranched in the area for 7 generations. "I like being well-grounded here, and I try to share my love of the area and its people with my clients." It's an old school work ethic that drives his ambition. Saving the best for last, Russ is pleased to tell you that his wife Debbie has shared his name for 25 years and together they have 2 awesome kids, Scott (24) and Lane (21).

Avoid at all costs. Told us they ?were required? to charge full Commission on both our sale and our purchase. We learned this was not true. We also noted lots of typos and mistakes in our listing (wrong price, wrong # of bedrooms, etc). They never fixed it and took advantage of us being new sellers. Shady and really botched our sale and purchase, then lied and hid behind Keller Williams lawyers. Left us screwed and in a horrible situation. I hope I save someone a lot of time money by saying stay away from this agent

Russ and his team did an awesome job providing us with great service to find us a house first that met all our needs and then to perform the whole transaction remotely. Jessica was a great help and really provided us with that extra help to make sure we could close in October. Love the Russ Philips team. Looking to move from out of state they will really take good care of you and your family.

The Russ Phillips team was wonderful. Ashley delivered what he says he will and kept us grounded in the process of buying our house. Trish helped with the closing process and we were able to close in 7 days.

Russ and his team are fantastic! They respond almost faster than I can type out or call in my question, their services and expertise in helping me get my home prepared for sale are incredible, and their knowledge of the market is unparalleled. Not only that, but Russ connection and relationship with other realtors, mortgage providers, and other service vendors proved INVALUABLE in selling this home. Russ team is constantly on-point with helping you through every step of the process. They know what needs to be done, and they try to lift as much of it from your shoulders as possible. If you are in Williamson County and want your house sold, I would strongly recommend you call him!
