Holly District, East Austin
“Other buyers threw numbers at me, but you actually walked me through how it works. That’s what made me feel like it could really get done.”

— Holly District Triplex Seller

the story

For over 20 years, the seller owned two adjoining lots with five rental homes that had supported his family and helped raise his children. The properties were part of his legacy.

Over time, constant maintenance and rising East Austin property taxes made holding onto them harder every year. The seller faced a difficult choice:

  • Keep the properties and pass them down to his children but postpone retirement
  • Or, sell for a fair price and finally enjoy the freedom he had worked toward.

He also cared deeply about his tenants, some of whom had lived there for decades, and did not want to disrupt their lives or deal with the logistics of transferring leases. Listing the properties would have meant showings, agents, and endless delays.

After speaking with several buyers, he chose Home Bolt because we listened, understood his goals, and tailored a solution around what mattered most to him.
