Episode 27 - Real Estate, River Guides & Real Talk: Get to Know Judah Ross

Welcome to the Good Neighbors of Texas Podcast! In this episode, I sit down with Judah Ross of Bastrop Real Estate Group, a relationship-driven realtor who’s helping shape not just the housing market in Bastrop, but the community itself.Judah shares how his journey from New Jersey and New York to Austin and finally Bastrop shaped his eye for fast-growing areas and long-term opportunity. Drawing on more than 15 years in sales leadership and startup environments, he talks about what it really takes to build trust in real estate, how he guides first-time buyers through the most stressful purchase of their lives, and why being a “therapist with a real estate license” isn’t that far from the truth.We also get personal—Judah opens up about a challenging childhood, finding his own identity, the importance of mental health, and how that fuels his commitment to creating a peaceful, stable home life for his family and his clients. From negotiating tough deals and navigating crazy markets to flying planes, kayaking the Colorado River, flying drones, and building neighborhoods one relationship at a time, this conversation is full of heart, insight, and genuine love for Bastrop.Tune in to meet a neighbor who isn’t just selling homes—he’s helping people find their place and their people.
