Ed Neuhaus
Neuhaus Realty Group
About Ed

I got started in real estate before I could drive. Honestly, you could say I was born into real estate. From about the time I was in second grade I was working with my mother helping her clean up her own rental properties. As soon as I could push the lawn mower, I was put to work. Cutting grass, painting, cleaning, taking out the trash, I did anything mom needed to be done. From those experiences, I came to learn a lot of information regarding single family real estate investing.

Later in college, I purchased my first house and learned first hand what it meant to be a landlord. From cleaning up after my tenant, to negotiating repairs and handling late rent. I also learned a great deal about the power of leverage, how depreciation worked on my taxes, and how to dramatically increases my ROI on a property. From that one property, I have grown our investment business from one home in Tennessee to 6 homes in central Texas and more to come. In 2009, I started Neuhaus Realty Group to teach others how to invest in real estate. Along with my former business partner, Stephen Smith, we went on to sell over 250 million dollars in real estate in the last 9even years. With the help of a collection of agents around the State of Texas, we have been able to help many clients who would otherwise have to be sent to other brokers. Over the last 10 years, I have sold everything from commercial buildings just blocks from the state capital in Austin, to houses from Beaumont to San Antonio to Dallas, and everywhere in between. Recently I have been focusing on waterfront property and around the Blanco River where my family and I love to spend time.
