Robert Mello
A University of Texas at Austin grad (BBA, MBA), in addition to having a successful real estate practice, Bobby has also created and is the CEO of his own highly successful real estate trust. Because of his continuing ties to residential construction – Bobby also maintains excellent relationships with outstanding contractors and construction crews.
He’s seen Austin change dramatically over the last 31 years, through real estate booms and busts, watched neighborhoods go up and down, saw first hand how homes held up or fell apart over the years, carefully noting which builders built a great quality home, and those that fell sadly short.
Whether buying or selling a home, he’s one of the very few who can provide the critical insider information that’s desperately needed in buying/selling a home successfully and smoothly, regardless of economic and market cycles.
He's an agent who's an expert in this local area, brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise about buying and selling real estate here. It's not the same everywhere, so you need someone you can trust for up-to-date information, and is eager to serve you.

Testimonials
"My wife, Monica, and I would like to make you aware that our house hunting experience with…Bobby Mello was outstanding. Monica and I have dealt with many realtors® over the years and have never before had the benefit of someone who worked as hard on our behalf. Not only that, but Bobby gave us an education in home construction, home buying in general, and home buying in Austin that was so empowering we are looking at all of Bobby’s predecessors with a suspicious eye. Why didn’t they furnish us with such a comprehensive education? The fact that Bobby is friendly, outgoing and personable are just icing on the cake. We would not hesitate to use Bobby’s services again and would recommend him to other home buyers and sellers with utmost confidence."

"I learned a lot from working with Bobby. We toured many houses, and he quickly pointed out things that I should be looking for: where to look for cracks and signs of foundation movement, termites, water damage, plumbing issues, and so on. He was always encouraging, despite the fact that many of the houses I wanted to look at ended up having some of these problems. Bobby wanted me to be a shrewd buyer, and to find the best house I could afford regardless of how many tours it took. He had absolutely no interest in getting me into a house quickly just so he could get paid, which is not something my friends can say about the realtors® they’ve used!"
-Trevor W., Client
"I moved here from another state and knew nothing about the local market. With his vast professional experience and intimate knowledge of the area, Bobby pulled me several times from the brink of making serious mistakes in, what many say, is the most important purchase of your life. He taught me the nuances of the various neighborhoods, who the best builders are, and what to look for during a viewing…When it came to the final purchase, Bobby was a strong advocate for my interest. I felt confident accepting his recommendation for the offer. He prepped me for the closing and played an active part at the proceedings to make sure I understood…I want to tell other people that they should hire Bobby. Bobby made the house hunting journey fun. "
-Peter J., Client
"We have purchased and sold other properties but this is the first time we sold our home…that we lived in for 28 years…There was so much emotion attached to this home and Bobby handled all of it with grace, dedication, professionalism and plain hard work. His commitment to us was unparallel and he made it plain that we could depend on him to answer any question we had at any time day or night! You cannot find any realtor® with that kind of dedication. We were so fortunate to have him representing us."
