Austin Investors Are Moving Again — Let's Find Your Next Opportunity
Hi, I’m Tim LaBorde, an Austin-based real estate agent with Aurumys. Since 2011, I’ve helped investors across Texas find under-value and investment-ready homes — many of them off-market — that move quickly and fit cash or hard-money buyers. Many of these close in just days before reaching the broader market.
Our recent actual closings show a variety of investor opportunities we’re seeing around Austin — from light to heavy rehabs in solid neighborhoods with room for value-add improvements. These moved quickly, with cash or hard-money buyers stepping in before they ever hit the broader market.
Investor activity has surged from South Austin to Pflugerville, with closings between $165K and $535K. Each property offered strong value-add or rental potential.

Trusted by investors since 2011 — connecting buyers to real opportunities before they hit the MLS.
I began focusing on real estate in 2008, during one of the most unpredictable markets in recent history. By 2011, I started investing personally and haven’t looked back. Since then, I’ve helped investors across Texas find properties that rarely make it to retail listings — distressed homes, value-add opportunities, and flips that move fast.
Having worked across multiple sides of real estate in Houston and Austin — from sales and portfolio management to listings, analysis, and acquisitions — I’ve learned how to bridge the gap between agents, wholesalers, and cash buyers so deals move smoothly and close quickly.
Today, I work with a small network of serious buyers who use cash or hard money and value speed, transparency, and clear communication above all else.
P.S. In RIGGED, I break down how jobs, housing, retirement, and finance were designed to keep everyday people stuck — and how understanding those mechanics can help you play the game differently. The same principles apply in real estate investing: once you understand how incentives shape the market, you can move faster, negotiate smarter, and build leverage instead of chasing luck. Readers have called RIGGED “a wake-up call” and “the red-pill book for anyone serious about escaping the system.”
