Hello, I'm Or
After years in tech—building products, leading teams, and solving complex problems at companies like Amazon and Armis - I chose to move into real estate because I wanted my work to be more personal - to support people during one of the most meaningful decisions of their lives.
My background in computer engineering taught me how to think clearly and act strategically. But what truly shaped my approach was relocating to Austin myself. I understand how overwhelming it can feel - the uncertainty, the financial weight, the desire to make the right choice for your family.
Today, I bring thoughtful analysis - but just as importantly, I bring patience and care. I don’t see my role as “selling” homes. I see it as guiding people - helping you feel confident, supported, and steady every step of the way.

We worked with Or Yochanan and this wonderful realtor team while relocating from Israel to Austin, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Communication started while we were still abroad - we shared our needs and preferences, and the team was incredibly responsive, professional, and patient throughout the entire process.
The team helped us find a wonderful home that fits our family perfectly. During the back-and-forth of the lease process, Or went above and beyond to make sure all our key requirements were met and that we secured the house we wanted.
We’re so grateful for the team’s care, and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a home in Austin.

We would like to express our deepest gratitude to Or Yochanan and his amazing team for helping us purchase our new home in Cedar Park, Texas.
From the moment we decided to work with Or, we immediately felt we were in good hands. Or’s analytical skills and deep understanding of the real estate market saved us a significant amount of money during the buying process. He evaluated the property’s price thoroughly and strategically, comparing it to real market data, and proved to us that this was a smart and worthwhile decision.
Behind the scenes, Or also handled complex negotiations with a challenging seller’s agent with remarkable professionalism and composure, updating us only once everything was settled—making the process completely stress-free for us.
Throughout the purchase—and even after closing—Or’s back-office team was absolutely exceptional. They kept us informed every step of the way, at any time of day, with impressive responsiveness, kindness, and attention to detail.
There is no doubt that we will highly recommend Or and his team to anyone looking for a trustworthy, professional, and results-driven real estate agent in the area.
Thank you, Or, and thank you to the entire team for your incredible support and dedication!
Warm regards,
Eyal & Michal Hezi

We had a great experience working with Or and his team, who supported us through every step of buying our home.
Or and his team were professional, transparent, and easy to communicate with. As a family buying a house remotely without seeing the house in person - this was super helpful, and allowed us to really get a sense of the market and the different options we have.
As we advanced and got to the house we finally chose, they provided clear and honest feedback, which truly reflected reality. We felt confident and well-guided through negotiations, inspections, and all the details in between.
Overall, we’re very happy with the entire process and we’d definitely recommend Or and his team to anyone looking for a trustworthy and professional realtor.
My Story
I hold a B.Sc. in Electrical Engineering from the Technion and began my career with global tech leaders like Qualcomm, Amazon, Annapurna Labs, and Armis. These roles trained me to think analytically and act decisively - skills I now apply to help clients navigate the real estate market with clarity and confidence.
But my value doesn’t stop at real estate advice. I bring a full-picture perspective that includes financial guidance, relocation support, and a deep understanding of what it means to move somewhere new. Having gone through that experience myself, I know the emotional weight and logistical challenges of starting over. That’s why I go beyond transactions: I build communities, connect families to neighborhoods that match their values and lifestyles, and help clients feel at home - faster.
I’m also passionate about education. I’ve built a bilingual YouTube channel filled with accessible, real-world information about Austin real estate, local neighborhoods, market trends, and relocation tips - designed to empower anyone at any stage of their journey. Whether you're buying, investing, or just exploring your next chapter, I’m here to be a steady hand throughout the process.
