Who We Are
About SR Group
A Central Texas real estate team at Compass, built out of a brokerage its founders started and ran themselves.
The whole market, not a niche
SR Group advises buyers, sellers, investors, and developers across Austin and Central Texas. We are deep in waterfront and in Central Austin, and we are not only those things: the same team handles a first house in Crestview, a ranch outside Dripping Springs, a downtown condo, and a ground-up development. Working the whole market is what lets us tell you honestly when the thing you are asking about is not the thing you want.
How the team started
SR Group began in 2013 as Saddle Realty, an independent brokerage founded by Jeffrey Grant and Steven Edwards. They were briefly Imperium Realty Advisors before settling on the name. Over the next several years the brokerage grew to roughly 25 agents, running its own operations, its own marketing, and its own transaction management.
In 2019 the team joined Compass and retired the Saddle Realty name, keeping the SR logo it had been trading under. Hence SR Group. What that history means in practice is that the people advising you have run a brokerage rather than only worked at one, which changes what they notice in a contract and what they will tell you about a listing agent's pricing strategy.
The story of how Jeffrey and Steven actually met, and why anyone calls them the Property NOT Brothers, is its own page.
Recognition
SR Group was ranked #21 in Austin by The Wall Street Journal for 2026, and has been named among Austin's top teams by RealTrends and The Wall Street Journal four years running. Across the roster the team carries more than 118 years of combined real estate experience and more than 800 closed transactions.
Those are the figures we publish because they are checkable. We do not publish a sales volume number, and we do not describe ourselves with adjectives that nobody could verify.
Reach beyond Austin
Through Compass, we work within a brokerage of approximately 340,000 real estate professionals across approximately 120 countries and territories, and 96 regional markets domestically. Jeffrey Grant has served two years on the Steering Committee of the Rise Referral Network, an invite-only network of Compass agents that has referred more than $75M in sales. That is the machinery behind a relocation, and it is why we can put a name to the agent on the other end of one.
