Brayden Knutson

Brayden Knutson is an award winning Dallas luxury real estate agent with Compass, specializing in Preston Hollow, Old Preston Hollow, the Park Cities, University Park, Highland Park, North Dallas, and surrounding Dallas–Fort Worth communities. With family roots in Dallas and with nearly a decade of residential real estate experience, Brayden represents buyers, sellers, investors, and families across the luxury and high-end housing market.

Brayden closed more than $35 million in residential real estate sales in 2025, including more than $12 million in off-market transactions. His experience includes luxury homes, architecturally significant properties, private sales, relocation purchases, investment properties, and some of Dallas’s most substantial residential transactions, including sales exceeding $10 million.

Recognized by D Magazine and Real Producers, Brayden has built his business primarily through referrals, repeat clients, professional relationships, and word of mouth. His clients value his responsiveness, candid advice, analytical approach, and ability to navigate complicated transactions without losing sight of the personal decisions behind them.

As a luxury listing agent in Dallas, Brayden develops a strategy around each individual property rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all marketing plan. He advises sellers on pricing, preparation, presentation, positioning, private-market exposure, negotiations, inspections, and the details required to bring a transaction successfully to closing. His relationships throughout the Dallas real estate community also provide access to agents, qualified buyers, contractors, designers, stagers, photographers, and other trusted professionals.

For buyers, Brayden combines neighborhood-level knowledge with market data and an extensive professional network to identify the right property—including homes that may not be publicly listed. He helps clients evaluate value, understand neighborhood differences, assess potential resale considerations, access "off market" properties, and compete effectively without taking unnecessary risks.

Brayden’s areas of expertise include:

• Luxury homes in Preston Hollow and Old Preston Hollow
• Homes in Highland Park and University Park
• North Dallas residential real estate
• Off-market and private real estate transactions
• Luxury home listing and marketing strategy
• Dallas relocation and neighborhood guidance
• Buyer representation and contract negotiation
• Residential investment and property evaluation

Brayden's familiarity with Dallas neighborhoods, schools, architecture, commute patterns, and lifestyle allows him to advise clients on more than the house itself. He helps them understand how a particular location and property will function for their family and hold value over time.

Brayden is a member of The Mark Cain Properties Group at Compass, a Dallas real estate team with more than 20 years of experience. Through Compass and his professional network, he offers clients access to extensive marketing resources, agent relationships, private-market opportunities, and support throughout the buying or selling process.

Whether someone is searching for the best luxury real estate agent in Preston Hollow, preparing to sell a home in North Dallas, relocating to the Dallas area, or looking for an off-market property in the Park Cities, Brayden provides informed, responsive, and highly personal representation.

Outside of real estate, Brayden enjoys spending time with his wife, three children, two dogs, and staying connected to the Dallas community. He also enjoys reading books, traveling, and anything to do with animals or nature.
