Clay McLaughlin

Clay was born and raised in Fargo North Dakota, lived in California for ten years, and has made Austin home since 1997. He began his Real Estate career in 2006 where he was proven to be a natural success in real estate as he was awarded “Rookie of the Year” as a Top Producer.

With integrity and discretion at the forefront of his interactions, Clay has developed deep relationships in the community which has helped him negotiate some of the finest properties on Lake Austin, Westlake, Tarrytown, and Downtown. Clay remains extremely connected to the luxury private market with off-market transactions representing over 60% of his sales. His diverse experience across Austin makes him exceptionally skilled and educated on evolving market trends, economic patterns, and quick opportunities – proving himself to be an invaluable knowledge base for his clients.

Clay’s personal commitment is to listen closely, speak honestly, negotiate aggressively, and lead with his client’s best interests in mind. Clay takes great pride in protecting his clients’ valuable time and money while guiding them through a decision-making process where they feel well-informed, empowered, financially rewarded, and confident after they have made a significant selling or buying decision.

Clay’s real estate success has been a testament to his expertise. Elite 25 Austin has consistently recognized Clay as one of the top 1% of Agents and selected him to be a member of Luxury League, which represents the finest luxury Real Estate professionals in Austin and the Texas Hill Country. He is in the top 1% of Agents in Keller Williams International Realty and was recently awarded the #1 Top Producing Agent in the Keller Williams Southwest Market Center. Clay has continued to be a Top Producer in Austin since 2008.

As an Ironman athlete, Clay knows well the importance of drive and dedication for success. In the city he loves, he can be found outside of work enjoying Austin’s many running trails, swimming spots, and miles of great roads for cycling.
