About · A field guide

A guide before an agent.

Fifteen years in the New Braunfels corridor. Limestone porches, river bends, and a thousand small decisions that turn a contract into a home.

Editorial portrait of Todd Spencer walking through downtown New Braunfels at soft hour, limestone storefronts and warm window light along the sidewalk.

Main Street · soft hour, on foot

The short story

I grew up listening to this town.

To the way the cypress hush in August. To the porch light at the bend in the river road. Real estate, the way I do it, is mostly listening — to neighborhoods, to numbers, and to the families trying to read both.

A working philosophy

The map is easy. The feeling takes longer. The trick is to walk it with someone who isn’t in a hurry — and to make the math kind enough that you can take your time.

Field notes

What I actually bring.

Three quiet skills. None of them sound dramatic. All of them make the difference between a stressful close and a small, beautiful chapter.

No. 01

Quiet, careful counsel

Most of the value shows up in the unsexy parts — disclosures, lender choreography, inspection translations. Calm beats clever every time.

No. 02

Hyperlocal, not hype

Where the school path actually runs. Which cul de sacs go quiet by nine. The bakery line worth standing in. A neighborhood read you can feel.

No. 03

Long after the close

The good calls happen the season after move in. Who to call about the cypress, where to find the right cabinet maker. The relationship is the work.

Comal riverwalk · golden hour

The river sets the pace.

Listings live online. Neighborhoods live at sidewalk speed — and most of what I know about this corridor I learned with my feet wet, slowing down to the rhythm of the water.

A standing schedule

Where you’ll find me.

The week has its own rhythm. Most of it happens between the river and Main, on foot, with time to talk.

  • Saturday mornings

    Farmers market under the live oaks at the Civic Plaza

  • Wednesday lunch

    Krause's biergarten porch when the weather turns kind

  • Late summer

    Float trips on the Comal with friends visiting from Austin

  • Fall evenings

    Gruene Hall, back row, two step room half empty

  • Sunday quiet

    Walking the river path before the city wakes up

An open invitation

No pitch. Just a long walk and a careful read.

First time buying, relocating, downsizing, or simply curious about the corridor — write whenever you’re ready. I read every note and reply within a business day.
