"Dane was fantastic. I'd recommend him 10/10 times. He helped a ton in my search and provided me with astute recommendations and guidance throughout the entire process. I'm very grateful I had someone as knowledgeable and supportive as Dane along with me on this journey. I would not have had a chance without him!"

"It is hard to list all the things that made our experience working with Dane so great! Hands down, he is the absolute best realtor we ever worked with. One of the biggest positives is that he is so accessible via text/email and was seemingly always able to show us a home within a short timeframe. His solid communication should be industry standard. With the very active and competitive market in Austin, Dane’s personal approach, knowledge, and experience put us ahead of the game! We can confidently say that working with him exceeded our expectations.
Dane was able to navigate us deploying multiple offers in such competitive situations. We found the house of our dreams in the neighborhood we’ve always wanted, and we know we couldn’t have done it without his skill and experience. We can’t say enough about our experience with Dane, and we really appreciate his time, guidance, and advice throughout this entire process. We are forever thankful and will seek out his help when we need to purchase other homes in the future."

"Dane was a great Realtor to have when buying my first place! He really broke down the steps for me and made the process seem very easy. Dane was always there to answer my questions and communicate with other parties. I don’t know when he doesn’t work! I’d definitely recommend Dane to anyone purchasing a home, especially first-time home buyers. He really listens to his clients and advocates for us to get the best deal possible! "

"Sherry was our agent when we purchased this house. We never thought twice about not using her as our listing agent. She owns the local market and knows it forwards and back. We got a contract in one day, at $150k over the asking price. What more could you ask! She is a consummate professional and a great negotiator. Also, we consider her a friend!"
- Pete + Teresa
★★★★★
"I can’t tell you what a pleasure it was to have Sherry represent us during the sale of our home in Lakeway. Not only was she thorough with helping with all the details in the presentation, but she also made sure the experience was smooth and stress-free! We have sold many homes over the years, but Sherry made this particular project memorable. I would use her again if we were ever to need her services, hands down!"
- Teresa E.
★★★★★
"Dane was absolutely fantastic to work with. He is extremely professional while still treating you like you are family. What I appreciate most about Dane is his willingness to tell you “no.” Dane is not a yes man and is never going to put getting a deal done ahead of getting you the best property for you. Dane will always check the details of the property you are evaluating to ensure it is right for his client and go out of his way to work around your schedule. Dane had a foot injury when we worked together. While many other realtors would have rescheduled their appointments, Dane was still happy to show as many houses as possible, walking boot and all. I look forward to working with Dane on my next house and highly recommend him to anyone in the market."

Sherry Ellenbogen and Dane Ellenbogen work together on the Ellenbogen Team.
Born and raised in Austin, Dane was always meant to be working in Real Estate. Both of his parents have been in the new build and resale side of Real Estate for the past 40 years. As a boy, he would follow his Mom around showings and open houses before going to his Dad's new builds and walking through the freshly framed homes. As a teenager, he was active in local government and even worked a summer in Washington DC for a Congressman. After graduating from Lake Travis High School, he went on to study at the McCoy Business School at Texas State University. He loved his college town but always found himself traveling back to Austin to see his family and show his non - Austinite friends how beautiful Austin really is. Upon graduation, he moved to San Diego to work in Commercial Real Estate for a few years before the light bulb hit - he needed to bring his Real Estate expertise back to where it all began.
Today, Dane is working diligently for his clients to make sure every aspect of their Real Estate transactions, whether personal or investment, runs smoothly. Regardless if you are buying, selling or leasing, Dane has experience in all fields and a vast knowledge of specific areas around Austin to meet your Real Estate goals. "No days off" is his motto, as you'll usually be able to reach him anytime, day or night. He believes clear communication with his clients is a top priority so that way they can always be on the same page.
If you don't find him in the office, odds are he is out enjoying all that Austin has to offer. Whether it's listening to music with friends on South Congress, hiking Barton Creek greenbelt, playing basketball at the local YMCA, or just strolling downtown near his condo on Rainey, Dane is always an amazing resource on all things Austin.
