The Agent
Who Actually
Works for
You.

Every agent in Austin tells you they're "the best" and "highly rated." But commission checks don't lie — and neither do the numbers below. 97% list-to-sale ratio. 11 average days on market. $180M+ closed. The results speak for themselves.

Why It Matters Who You Hire

Most Agents Get
Paid When You
Close — Not When
You Win.

The uncomfortable truth: the average buyer's agent gets paid the same commission whether they negotiate $20,000 off or accept list price without a fight. The average seller's agent earns the same fee whether your home sells in 8 days or 180. There is no built-in incentive to fight for your outcome.

My entire business model is built on referrals from clients who got exactly the outcome they came for. That alignment — your result drives my reputation — is what the agent next to my name on Zillow can't offer you.

How I Serve Clients

Buying. Selling.
Investing.
Done Right.

Whether you're buying your first Austin home, selling a property you've owned for 20 years, or building a real estate investment portfolio — every transaction I handle gets the same level of attention, strategy, and follow-through. No junior agents. No hand-offs. You work with me, start to finish.

01
🏠

Buyer Representation

Full-service buyer advocacy from search strategy through closing. I help you identify the right property, analyze market comps, build competitive offers, navigate inspections, and negotiate every line item of the final contract. You pay me nothing — the seller covers my fee.

02
📈

Seller Representation

Strategic pricing, professional staging consultation, architectural photography, targeted digital marketing, and active offer negotiation. My average seller gets 97 cents of every list price dollar — not the 89 cents you'd get with a lesser strategy.

03
🏗

Investment Properties

Cash flow analysis, cap rate modeling, neighborhood ROI comparison, and off-market sourcing for buy-and-hold or fix-and-flip investors. I've helped clients build portfolios from 1 property to 24 across the Austin metro. The math matters as much as the address.

04
🔑

Relocation Services

Relocating to Austin from out of state? I've helped over 80 families navigate the Austin market remotely — virtual tours, neighborhood deep dives, school district analysis, and closings coordinated without a single on-site visit when schedules demand it.

05
🏡

Luxury & New Construction

Builder negotiation, upgrade analysis, lot selection, and representation through the new construction timeline. Builders have their own agents at the model home — you need yours. I negotiate builder incentives, warranties, and upgrades that the unrepresented buyer never receives.

06
📊

Market Analysis

Free comparative market analysis for any Austin-area property. Whether you're considering selling, refinancing, or simply tracking what your investment is worth — I provide a current, data-backed analysis with no obligation and no sales pressure attached.

About Vivienne
Vivienne
Cross, REALTOR®
GRI · ABR · Luxury Certified · Austin, TX · Licensed Since 2010

I moved to Austin from Chicago in 2009 and bought my first home here — and I quickly learned how different a well-represented buyer and a poorly-represented buyer fare in the same market. The difference can be $40,000 on the purchase price, or it can be the house you actually wanted that you lost because your agent submitted the offer wrong.

I got my license the year after that purchase and built my business the hard way: one client, one referral, one result at a time. I have never run a TV ad, never bought leads, and never taken more clients than I can personally serve. Every client I take on gets my cell number and the expectation that I'll return calls the same day — because that's the standard I'd want if I were writing the check.

My focus areas are Westlake, Tarrytown, Barton Creek, and the 78746 zip code — but I've worked in every Austin neighborhood across 14 years and $180M in transactions.

“We were relocating from Seattle and tried to buy our first house in Austin without an agent to save the commission. We lost three offers in a row and got crushed. Vivienne got us into contract on the first house we offered on with her. Same market, same budget — completely different outcome.”

“We listed with a discount broker first. Eight weeks, two price reductions, and zero offers. We switched to Vivienne. She re-staged, re-photographed, repriced, and we were under contract in 6 days at $28,000 over our original list price. The commission paid for itself four times over.”

“I've bought four investment properties with Vivienne over three years. She's the only agent I've worked with who actually runs the cash flow math before recommending a property. She's passed on deals that would have been mediocre investments. That kind of honesty is worth more than any single transaction.”

How We Work Together

Simple Process.
No Surprises.
Real Results.

Whether you're buying or selling, I run the same structured process on every engagement: we agree on the strategy before we execute it, you're informed at every step, and I don't ask you to make decisions faster than they deserve. Real estate is the largest financial transaction most people make. It should feel like it.

01
Free Strategy Call

30 minutes. We discuss your goals, timeline, budget, and current market conditions. I give you my honest assessment of what's realistic — including if I think the timing isn't right for you yet.

02
Market Analysis

For buyers: targeted search with real-time alerts and comp analysis before every offer. For sellers: professional CMA with pricing strategy and competitive positioning vs. current inventory.

03
Execute & Negotiate

I write offers designed to win in competitive situations. I counter with data, not emotion. And I'm available at 9pm when the deadline is 10pm — because that's when the deal gets made or lost.

04
Close & Beyond

Transaction management through closing, vendor introductions, and post-close support. My clients have my number after closing — because questions don't stop on funding day and neither do I.
