About Mark
I believe that my leading strength as a REALTOR is an unrivaled ability to tailor a client's lifestyle, budget, and preferences into a custom-fitted home buying experience. For sellers, that same intuition and genuine listening aid my ability to creatively reach goals. In addition to good communication, I credit my clients' successes to embracing available technology and a mutual enthusiasm for real estate. I define my own success in the business of selling real estate less on the basis of 8 straight years of multi-million dollar sales production and more on the satisfaction of my loyal clients and their direct feedback and testimonials.

Eric Pugatch and his Strüb team helped us thru shark infested waters and landed us our dream home. His team made buying a home, even during a pandemic, as seamless as possible. Everyone on the team, or that came to us (as buyers) as a reference, was a total pro-from the finance guy, Atif to the builders and team Rhett and Britton. These guys can’t be rattled.
They stayed on top of our deal and got us out of a couple big jams.
Then he brings champagne!! Awesome.

We worked with Ashley Jamieson for over a year, (yah a YEAR!) to find our perfect property. Not only is she a total boss, she's also wicked smart, really genuine and so fun to work with.
In March 2020, after quite a bit of negotiation, we went under contract on a beautiful place but as we neared closing, were surprised by a family emergency and needed to switch gears quickly. Ashley worked some major magic and we got our earnest money back, which was no small feat. We took a few months to deal and Ashley was so patient and understanding, but ready to hop back in the moment we were.
The market is so competitive and it's tough out there for buyers. I have friends who put in dozens of offers and lost over and over, heartbreaking stories of people finding it impossible to win the houses they want. We didn't have this experience with Ashley at all, she gave us savvy advice on how to land on the final table and her guidance led us to find the most perfect property for us at a fair price.
She has consistently been a great listener, very communicative, and super organized. Ashley is the real deal, the astute professional that you want in your corner

Ashley Jamieson is a consummate real estate professional through and through. I worked with her (remotely) to find and purchase a home in Austin. She is honest, reliable and well connected - all of the qualities you want in a realtor that will look out for your best interest. She and her assistants, Melanie and Catherine, worked seamlessly together and made sure I always felt well taken care of. I managed to find a property I love and purchased it sight unseen at a great price (considering how hot the current market is in Austin). I was prepared to pay more but relied entirely on Ashley's experience and insights to make a competitive offer that was accepted by the seller. Ashley was strategic about the offer details and timing, and carefully planned out everything from the minute the offer was accepted to the time we closed. You will not go wrong working with Ashley!

Jessica Bush from Strub Residential group was a lifeline to us when we decided to buy a home in Austin but could not travel to Austin before buying due to the pandemic. She was very professional, always gave us the best advice on neighborhoods, pricing, rental potential and much more. Even though the market was extremely competitive, she helped us get a great home in no time! Even after our offer was accepted, there were numerous instances before final closing where her proactive support turned out to be invaluable! I will definitely recommend her and Strub Residential to anyone who is looking to buy in the highly competitive Austin market!

We landed a home that we love. Five stars. What more do you need to know? Ok...
The Strub team was great to work with in general, and Eric Pugatch in particular was fantastic. Buying a home while out of state was always going to come with unique stresses, but Eric did everything possible to keep us at peace and informed. He was very responsive and always professional. He got in our last-second offer which included having to convince the sellers to consider some special circumstances. He unhesitatingly went to the home multiple times on our behalf while encouraging us to fly out to see the home in person while we could still back out if necessary. We are so thankful that he did! In fact, even after closing, he was there for us. Above and beyond!
Eric and the Strub team connected us with a lender and home inspector, both of whom ended up being great. And at no point were they pushy about having us use their recommended associates.
The current market in Austin is wild and we will always be grateful to the Strub team for guiding us through it. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

I cannot say enough good words about Justyn and Strub! I relocated to Austin from Seattle in the middle of a pandemic and I absolutely couldn't have done it without him! After being disappointed with my first realtor and not really jivving with my friend's referrals, I did a round of interviews with realtor firms. Strub connected me with Justyn, and he impressed me with is knowledge, energy, and specialty in relocations. I decided to go with him, and couldn't be happier with my decision. First, he took the time to really get to know me and my preferences. From the beginning I felt like I had a partner who really cared. Second, Justyn works incredibly hard and he knows exactly the questions/concerns/needs that long-distance shoppers have. I think he might be psychic because he would often reach out with answers before I could even ask the question. As soon as I expressed any interest in a house, Justyn was on it. And the best part for you long-distance shoppers - he takes walk-through videos of homes so you almost feel like you are there. The market was incredibly competitive with limited inventory when I was shopping, and with Justyn's expertise, we put together a winning offer that I felt good about. But it doesn't stop there with Justyn. My house sat empty for quite awhile before I could move, and he went above and beyond, regularly stopping by to make sure all was in order. During the horrible storm in February, he turned my faucets to drip (and eventually worked with my neighbors to turn off my water) to ensure my pipes didn't burst. Last, but certainly not least, Justyn is a friendly, warm person and was a joy to work with. Seriously go with Justyn. He is the best!

We were moving from SF Bay Area to Austin and were recommended Justyn LeFebvre from STRUB, and boy, it was one of the best decisions we have ever made. It was our first time buying a house and Justyn guided us through every step of the process, from finding a local lender (essential) to local insurance agents, and inspectors. He was brilliant at expertly and humorously fielding my wife’s hundreds of calls, texts, and FaceTimes.
Justyn first suggested we fly in for a weekend to tour some properties and to meet face to face. While we didn’t get the one house we made an offer on, this was all Justyn needed to get a feel for us as people, the house we were looking for, and the neighborhoods we wanted.
During the next few weeks, Justyn would FaceTime us, and send us video clips of houses we targeted through his email updates of the available houses. We had a great relationship with him, and we totally trusted his judgment with houses he thought were, or were not, right for us.
After putting in several bids where we became the second-placed backup buyer, we landed a great house after Justyn recommended certain conditions in our offer. He mentioned that the whole team at STRUB Residential had meetings to discuss the crazy Austin market and ways to cut through the multiple offers and to become the winning bid. I assume the other STRUB agents have the same skill too.
Where Justyn really excelled though was after we made the purchase. We were in Palm Springs on the first night of our Penske truck cross country caravan when the Great Texas Ice Freeze happened. He advised us to camp out longer in El Paso, while he organized for our empty house to be protected from pipe death. These were not the actions of an agent, but of a personal friend.
When we did arrive the Sunday after the thaw, he was there to greet us with a great first-week care / welcome package, and a fantastic email that contained links to all of the services and contractors we would need, and instructions on how to set up our car and license in Texas.
We could not recommend Justyn any more highly. I could not believe how he made our out-of-state house purchase so smooth, especially in this cutthroat market.

Strub Realty made our first time homebuying experience very easy. We relocated to Austin about a year ago and were looking to set down roots now that we have a better feel for the area. Strub was our first choice and we are glad that we chose them.
It should be no surprise buying a house in 2020/2021 that the market was extremely competitive with some houses receiving an incredible amount of offers. Our Agent, Rosie, helped us navigate in making a competitive offer and we were done with our home search in record timing!
Rosie was polite, accomodating and truly helped us from start to finish in this process, including checking in on us after the purchase was complete. She also continually provided us with recommendations for adjacent services like electricians and landscapers. She truly made us feel like we were part of her family. If you are in doubt, ask for Rosie, she will take care of you.
Rosie, if you read this, you're the best! We'd never want to buy another house without you!

Rosie was our realtor at Strub Residential and we were so lucky to have her. As first time home buyers, she made the experience an absolute breeze for us. We ended up getting our second offer on a home accepted after just three weeks of searching. She knew exactly how to handle this multiple offer market and I strongly doubt we would have gotten it without her. She was a joy to communicate with and be around during our home search journey. We would highly recommend her!

I decided it was time to purchase my first house this past fall and so I was referred to Strub Residential by my friend. The team made me even more excited about the idea of buying a house so I couldn't wait to make it happen! Rosie worked with my diligently, taking me to dozens of houses so I could find the perfect one. I really had no idea what exactly I wanted in the beginning so by looking at so many different types, we really got to figure out exactly what I was looking for. Anytime that I would get down about the search during this competitive market, Rosie would reassure me that we would find the perfect one, and we did! Rosie helped me to make a very strong offer using all different techniques that really helped strengthen the offer package. I could not be happier with my new home and I am so grateful for all the time and effort that Rosie put into making this happen for me!

We worked with Patrick, From Strüb Residential, for 6 months, in a highly competitive market, to find our dream home. Throughout all of that time he was patient, keenly aware of our likes/dislikes, and didn't try to push us above our budget. There were times where he told us before seeing a house that we wouldn't like it and he was right! We are incredibly grateful to have found Patrick as our realtor and we would gladly recommend him to anyone looking to buy a new home.

If you are looking for a realtor in the Austin area, one with a company behind him that supports him and you all the way, then look no further...Eric Pugatch at Strub Residential is your man. Moving back to Texas from California was a daunting task but one that Eric had also made in his past so he was intimately familiar with what we were going through. My wife and I of 32 years had spent most of our time in Houston and had always wanted to live in the hill country but simply had no knowledge of the neighborhoods or what to expect. Eric patiently and professionally showed us neighborhood after neighborhood and kept introducing us to new ideas until we fell in love but then we had to negotiate as our love came with a great price tag. We were building our dream home with a custom builder and as we progressed he kept pointing out things that we would never have seen. So much so that we ended up ending our dealings with our initial builder and going with another, and much better builder that has truly been a pleasure to work with. Eric could have kept quiet and made the easy sale but knew what he saw would not make us happy and that spoke volumes to us. He was referred to us by friends that moved here before us and we have referred him to other folks as well and will do so to anyone who asks. You won’t be disappointed.

I have had the pleasure of working with Eric for both a sale of a home and the purchase of a home a year later. Both of these home decisions were difficult for me as one was as I left an old life and the other was me stepping into my new life and the fear of doing that alone.
Eric handled both situations exquisitely as he was there to schedule repairs to the house for sale, facilitated the repairs getting done so I didn’t have to leave work, and was just a sweet, caring guy who still got his job done well. For the home purchase he worked with me as I extended option period, got cold feet, and figured everything out that I needed to feel I had done my due diligence to accept such a large endeavor. He was there to guide me, listen to me(even when it was more therapy than selling the house), and kept the dynamic between us and the sellers positive. I pushed him to ask for things he thought were unwise, but we still did them. He gave me guidance on what he knew and referred me to the appropriate people when more technical information was needed.
Overall, Eric is a great realtor to have as your partner. He wants the best for his clients, and I feel he truly takes pride in helping people get their lives situated as they want. I highly recommend Eric.

We worked with Justyn and he was amazing. This was our first time buying a house and he was super patient with all our questions and roamed all over Austin with us since we were undecided on any particular part of the town.

OMG Where do I start. Justyn LeFebvre helped me and my girlfriend Sandy find a house to build. We met with him just a couple of times and talked about what we wanted in a home. Almost immediately he sent us links to builders that were offering houses in our price range and that could meet our requirements. He set up appointments and walkthroughs. Even showed us around town so that we could get acquainted with the surrounding areas. He went above and beyond to make sure we were getting what we wanted. If you are looking to buy a home, hit Justyn up. You will not be disappointed!

This is a long overdue testimonial for Eric Pugatch
Eric was very helpful in finding the right home for us. Having relocated from CA and new to Austin, we only had a vision on what needs to be in the house.
Eric was quick in understanding our expectations and needs nailed down and shortlisted a few homes including new developments in good locations.
Instead of dragging us into many houses, Eric was able to hone in on the right home in the right neighborhood.
Eric also helped us with negotiations and adding our change lists before signing the final contract.
Though it is a newly built house, Eric encouraged us to have the home inspected and gave us some good referrals for the home inspection.
Eric was on vacation during our final walkthrough, but he made sure to have someone cover for him. This was a great help for us as she was able to find things that we would have overlooked.
In a nutshell, Eric is a great asset for someone relocating from other states and looking for a new home in Austin.
I greatly recommend Eric to be your real estate agent to find your dream home

1st time home buyer, new to the Austin area, and only in Austin part-time during my house hunt: I worked with Justyn and without him, who knows where I would be living right now. Alas, we closed on a perfect home in early March, making it through aggressive competition, and I could not be happier and more optimistic about my future in Austin.
It is clear now, especially for a 1st-time buyer, that you need a full-service agency and dedicated agent and that's exactly what Strub was able to provide. If I had cut corners or gone for the bargain model that was offered to me along the way, I would not have landed in this neighborhood, I would not have been able to close on something with as much value and upside, and the level of stress and anxiety would have been too great. Working with Mark and Justyn was absolutely the best decision I made.
---
I threw a lot at Mark and Justyn early on. I was relocating from the Bay Area and I could only be down here part-time. I also came in thinking I knew exactly what I was looking for only to change my mind several times along the way.
Justyn was on top of everything the whole way. He provided research and perspective early on to help me better understand the market, neighborhoods, and to educate me on the finer details of the home buying process. Before we saw anything, he would stop by himself to make sure it was worth our joint time together (HUGE!). While I was away he did video tours of homes on our list (who does that!?). He worked hard to make sure we had private times to view homes so that we could focus. He was always available to chat, dig into something, or just listen to me think out loud.
"You'll know when you walk in," is a cliche, but it is true. Once we found the house, Justyn was on it, making sure we had the leg up and using the whole team at Strub to ensure we looked at it from all angles. We were aggressive where we needed to be and tactful in some key areas that gave us the edge without increasing my costs.
Ultimately, it was the time, effort, and great coaching that got me to the perfect home and neighborhood. I know I have a great resource here if anything comes up along the way or if I ever want to buy and/or sell in the Austin area again.

Stewart Lane was just fantastic to work with. He was so knowledgeable, so patient, and so incredibly helpful at each step in the process. Any time I had a question or a request, he was always super responsive. I never felt like anything that I was looking for was too specific or that I was being too picky in the process. The whole way from showings to open houses to making an offer and closing were substantially easier than I ever would have thought they could be. I don't think I could possibly say enough good things about working with Stewart!

We've had an incredible experience with Strub - on both the buying and selling end. Every individual at the company has not only been efficient, but competent, easy to work with and personable. We whole heartedly feel like the entire company is run so efficiently and we felt guided and in the loop throughout the entire process. Our realtor, Eric Pugatch is the REAL DEAL. He was excellent during our buying transaction and as if he couldn't shine any brighter, he SOARED during the sale of our home. He literally took the project under his wing, coordinated everything we agreed to and got our home not only on the market, but we received an offer within a week. He was exceptional in honoring our budget, but was completely honest in what he needed as well. We felt a very trusting and respectful dynamic in working with him. I appreciated that he was candid about what things he needed from us to make it easier to sell our home at our asking price and he was also very up front about working with any limitations we had and how that would affect our sale. I felt he kept our expectations realistic. I genuinely believe that he, and everyone at Strub knows what they are doing and every single person has been there to guide us in the best way possible. I couldn't imagine working with a more efficient and better run company. I will always reach out to Strub for any and all real estate needs!

This review is for Rosie Ochoa at Strub. I started out looking for a house to rent in Austin that would accommodate my large dog. I found Rosie as a leasing agent and she guided me through finding a house to rent in Austin. However, I had so much trouble finding a place to rent (I think having a large dog was a deterrent to getting places), that Rosie gently recommended that I might consider buying a place. I had great credit and some money saved, and she explained how there were places in my budget where I'd be paying the same amount for my mortgage and insurance every month as I'd be paying for the same houses I was looking to rent. It made sense to me and wasn't even an option I had considered. I'm so glad that she recommended it, even though I know it was in her best interest as well.
She was always available to show houses and had a lot of patience with my pickiness. Our determination paid off, and after a month of looking, we found the perfect place for me, and $10k under budget. I'm so happy with the house and can't believe I'm a home owner. Thanks Rosie and Strub!

STRÜB realtors in greater Austin are the best company and Stewart Lane is the best agent I have ever dealt with. He has sold four properties in my family and two of then had multiple bidders and sold significantly over asking price in the first week. STRÜB and Stewart also have successfully rented several of my income properties.
Stewart is a consummate professional. He helps with all aspects of preparing your property for the market including professional photographs and make ready designer consultation all paid up front by him. He understands marketing and the best way to present a property and is willing to invest himself in that process.
STRÜB is a full service agency run by a savvy team. Stewart is my go to guy and believe me I am a very demanding client having been an agent myself many years ago and spending most of my career in marketing. Also I’m a perfectionist and very demanding which he is too so its a great fit. We work together very well and also enjoy each others business ethics and sense of humor.
Stewart is also just a really fun guy to work with. Truly exemplifying the ethos, “Do good, have fun, make money.
Go with STRÜB and get Stewart Lane as your agent and you will achieve or exceed your goals while having fun doing it!

Justyn LeFebvre was my first point of contact upon moving to the Austin area. Initially he helped me find a place to rent and when it was time to buy in the area, he helped me identify areas that were within my commute and price range.
It took a while and I went back and forth trying to decide where and if I wanted a new build. He was super patient, realistic and truly listened to what I was looking for. Justyn guided me through the entire new home process including inspections and walk thrus.
I absolutely recommend Justyn for anyone looking for a place in the Austin Area - he is genuine, straight forward and most of all, cares about what you're looking and works diligently to find the right fit for you and your family!

We chose to work with Ashley Jamieson of Strub Residential for a second time when selling our first home and buying our second. We had just as lovely an experience as we did the first time around! Ashley is always completely professional and invited us in for a formal presentation of how our home selling process could look relative to similar sales in the area. It was great to have this kind of attention even though we had worked with Ashley before- it reminded us of the work that she puts into making sure our experience as homeowners goes as smoothly as possible.
Ashley's attention to detail ensured our property looked perfect when we officially put it on the market. Strub compiled professional photos and a fast facts binder for potential buyers that really made our property feel special. We sold our home at above asking price within a week!
At the same time, Ashley brought us to see a number of properties that fit our interest when buying a second home and we ultimately found a perfect option in the neighborhood we wanted and at the perfect price point. We found the place more quickly than expected, but the timing of the sale of our home and move in to the next ended up working out very smoothly thanks to Ashley's help. Ashley's help in communicating with the builder of our new home was invaluable and we always felt like we could trust that everything would go the way we expected. She is direct and friendly and always available when needed. She checked in with us a few times after moving in and was so kind to give us a sweet housewarming gift as well.
We would absolutely choose to work with Ashley again and will recommend her to anyone wanting to work with an experienced professional in buying or selling a home. She rocks, the end!

Being a first time home buyer, the Austin market was very intimidating for me. Working with another agent from another firm a couple years back and after multiple bidding wars with no success, I took my frustrations and decided to take a break from house hunting.
Couple years pass and I decided to give it another go with a new agent. A couple internet searches later I came across Strüb Residential. Sent them an email and within 30 minutes I got a call back. Needless to say, I was impressed! Took some info from me and by the end of the day, Justyn Lefebvre called and introduced himself as my agent. That weekend, we were out looking at properties.
Justyn is a rockstar agent! Extremely knowledgeable about the home buying process and the local house market. Kept in constant communication and pulled and recommended listings for me to check out. Definitely went above and beyond the call of duty.
Within just two weeks of meeting Justyn, we were closing on a house! It all happened so fast, but what can I say, the stars were aligned. Throughout the closing process, Justyn was there every step of the way to answer questions and get it done. The smoothest home buying experience I could have every hoped for.
Thank you Justyn and the Strüb Residential team for helping me find my first house! Will definitely contact you again for any future real-estate needs. 100% recommend!!!

Patrick was such a joy to work with! My husband and I were looking for a house as first time homeowners and we didn't know what to expect, once we started working with Patrick everything went so smoothly and we felt very comfortable through the entire process. Patrick made sure all of our questions were answered and communicated with us both through every update. When we were unsure or feeling a little stressed about something, he made sure to jump in and find out how to help and provided us with the information we needed to know to feel at ease. We found the most beautiful home with Patrick's help and we couldn't be more thankful!

Finding the perfect house in Austin can be daunting. My wife and I had been looking off and on using another realty firm when we met Mark Strüb at an open house. We were so impressed with his professionalism and forthrightness that he seemed like a perfect fit. After meeting with Mark and his team, he identified Patrick Sarb as the ideal realtor at his firm with which we should work. Was he right!
Patrick was tremendous throughout the entire process. He advocated for us and made sure we didn’t settle for an “almost right” place when he knew the perfect place was out there. He was generous with his time and never pushed us to commit to something that didn’t feel right despite how aggressive the Austin housing market can be. Ultimately, Patrick’s dedication led to us finding our perfect home. While we were under contract, Patrick continued to stay in constant touch and worked tirelessly with the selling agent and builder to ensure they delivered us the home we wanted. Patrick was an absolutely joy to work with and became a friend through the process. Hopefully it will be many years before we are in the market to sell our new home, but when the time comes, we will entrust Strub Residential and Patrick Sarb to represent our interests.

Very personalized experience with fast turn around at every point in the process. Eric Pugatch helped me get the property I wanted for the price I wanted and likely set a new low price record in one of the best neighborhoods. Highly recommended

Justyn Lefebvre with Strüb Residential is amazing!
We are relocating to the Austin area from out of state and from the very beginning Justyn went over and above to make sure we found the perfect house for us. We would email him with lists of housing development areas and home plans we were interested in and he would go out and meet with the builders and walk through the models so that he could give us more details. Justyn helped us get our dream home! He was with us from the beginning, finding the home, signing the contract, attending our design meeting and giving us options for lenders and insurance agents, through the end when we signed our closing documents. He walked us through the entire process.
We will continue to work with Justyn for all our Real Estate needs and highly recommend his services!
