LGBTQ+ Realtors in Austin

Adam Baker, Amanda White, and Andrew Doobay are Austin real estate agents who say they’re LGBTQ+ on their own pages. Two more, Zachary Rodger and Matthew Lodge, say they serve LGBTQ+ clients and don’t say more than that. All five have an active Texas real estate license as of October 2026.

Someone’s identity is theirs to state. We only call an agent an LGBTQ+ realtor in Austin when they’ve said it themselves, and we quote where. Our How We Choose page has the full method.

Agents Who Say They’re LGBTQ+

Quotes are from each agent’s own website, read October 13, 2026.

Adam Baker

Adam Baker’s site has an LGBTQ+ page that opens, “I’m a gay Realtor in Austin, and helping our community feel at home here is the best part of this job.” He lists two names on a loan with no marriage certificate, and buying while a surrogacy or adoption is underway, and writes, “My husband and I have been through some of that ourselves.”

For trans and nonbinary clients he writes, “I use your name and pronouns everywhere I have control over them, and I ask instead of assuming.” He also says he works with people moving from out of state by video walkthrough.

Amanda White

Amanda White’s home page says, “I’m Amanda White, a full-time Austin Realtor® and proud member of the LGBTQ+ community.” Her LGBTQ+ page adds that she belongs to the National Association of Gay and Lesbian Real Estate Professionals.

She says she has lived in Austin for more than 15 years and works with first-time buyers, people moving from out of state, and sellers. Her site has a first-time buyer guide and a page on the homestead exemption.

Andrew Doobay

Andrew Doobay runs an Instagram account called @thegayrealestateagent. On the site of the nonprofit he started, The Happy & Gay Foundation, he writes, “I didn’t have the happiest coming-out story. After getting to a place of self-love and acceptance, I want to make sure other LGBTQIA+ youth and adults don’t have to suffer in the same way.” He says the foundation will support the community’s mental well-being. That page has no date on it.

His real estate site, Big Realty Energy, lists homes for sale and a way to book an appointment. It says nothing about LGBTQ+ clients, so the quote above is the source for this entry.

  • Office: 701 Tillery St, Austin 78702. (512) 585-0519

Agents Who Say They Serve LGBTQ+ Clients

These two don’t state an identity anywhere we read, and we aren’t guessing. Both are members of the Austin LGBT Chamber of Commerce.

Zachary Rodger

Zachary Rodger’s site calls him an “LGBTQ+ Friendly Realtor in Austin.” He says he works with buyers, sellers, renters, and people moving to Austin, and covers Lago Vista, Round Rock, Manor, and San Marcos as well. He came to real estate from interior design, lighting, and hospitality.

His license is the newest on this page, issued in May 2025.

Matthew Lodge

Matthew Lodge’s listing in the Austin LGBT Chamber directory says he “serves a diverse clientele and proudly supports the LGBT community.” His brokerage profile says he specializes in first-time buyers and people buying new construction, and that he joined the Jones Property Group in 2025.

The License Check

Every real estate agent in Texas is licensed by the Texas Real Estate Commission (TREC), and a sales agent has to work under a sponsoring broker. We looked up each agent in TREC’s public license data on October 13, 2026.

AgentLicenseStatusExpiresSponsoring broker on record
Adam Baker713621ActiveNovember 30, 2026Serhant Texas, LLC
Amanda White713063ActiveOctober 31, 2028APTexas2, LLC

Zachary Rodger838651ActiveMay 31, 2027Expert Endeavors, LLC
Matthew Lodge795981ActiveNovember 30, 2026APTexas2, LLC

The broker on record is a legal name, so it won’t always match the brand on the yard sign. Two of these licenses come up for renewal in November 2026. You can look up any agent yourself with TREC’s license holder search.

Before You Sign With an Agent

  • Ask what you want to know: have you worked with couples who aren’t married, or with a buyer whose legal name is changing?
  • Ask about their people: most agents will send you to a lender and an inspector they know. Ask who, and why. For money questions before you buy, see our LGBTQ+ financial advisors guide
  • Read the forms: Texas agents give you an Information About Brokerage Services form. It explains the ways a broker can represent you
  • Interview more than one: ask each agent what agreement you’d sign before a showing, and how long it lasts
  • Know where to complain: the City of Austin says its housing protections cover “sexual orientation, transgender status, gender identity, and/or gender expression.” The city’s Civil Rights Division takes housing complaints at 512-974-3251

Choosing where to live comes first for a lot of people. Our guide to where queer life clusters in Austin covers that. If the house you buy needs work, we also keep a list of LGBTQ+ friendly remodelers and handymen.

What We Couldn’t Check

We haven’t bought or sold a home with any of these agents, so nothing here is a first-hand review. We read what each agent publishes and checked the state license record. We didn’t check sales figures, awards, or reviews, and we left them off the page.

The older version of this page named four agents and said they identify as LGBTQ+. It gave no source. One of them, Adam Baker, says so himself. We found nothing where the other three do, so we removed them. That isn’t a statement about them.

National directories of gay and lesbian real estate agents list more Austin names than this page does. We only list an agent when we can read the statement on their own page.

Last checked: October 2026. Agent details read from each agent’s own website or profile on October 13, 2026. Licenses from the Texas Real Estate Commission’s public license data, same day. See a mistake, or are you an agent who should be here? Use our contact page.
