Dave Murray is a founding member of TexasLand and one of the most experienced agents in Texas ranch real estate. Based in Austin, he has spent decades representing buyers and sellers across Central Texas, building a reputation for successfully marketing ranch properties, luxury estates, waterfront homes, and investment land. His long career in Texas land brokerage has been defined by a deep understanding of the land market and the relationships built along the way.
Dave began his real estate career in the mid-1980s, starting by driving buyers across town to view $5,000 Point Venture lots. From the beginning, he took a simple approach to the business: if he believed he could sell a property, he would list it. He never turned away an opportunity, and that mindset helped him steadily build a diverse client base and a wide-ranging portfolio of properties. Many of his early clients grew alongside him, and their continued trust helped shape the foundation of his career.
Over the years, Dave has closed more than $2 billion in real estate transactions and has remained consistently ranked among the top 1% of REALTORS® in Texas for more than 20 years. His work has earned recognition among the state’s leading agents, including membership in Elite 25 and recognition by Triple.com as one of the best REALTORS® in Texas. Throughout his career, he has represented some of the most notable ranch properties, luxury homes, and waterfront estates in Central Texas.
Working in Texas land and ranch brokerage for decades has given Dave a practical perspective on the market and the long-term value of land ownership. He understands the factors that shape ranch properties, recreational land, and investment acreage across the state, and he brings that knowledge to every transaction.
Dave’s connection to land extends beyond real estate. He owns a ranch where he spends time with family and friends, often hosting large gatherings that bring together several generations at once. Those experiences reflect the lifestyle and traditions that many Texas landowners value.
Dave lives in Austin with his wife of more than 25 years and their six children. The family enjoys traveling, skiing, hiking, and spending time outdoors.
Today, Dave continues to help buyers and sellers navigate Texas land transactions with the perspective that comes from decades of experience in Texas ranch real estate and land brokerage.
