I’m Carissa Holmes, a full-time real estate professional based in Driftwood, Texas, serving the Dripping Springs and Driftwood areas. Since 2019, I’ve helped buyers and sellers navigate the real estate market with confidence, combining my deep knowledge of the local community with over 20 years of experience as a data-driven marketing strategist.

My background in marketing gives my clients a distinct advantage—whether we’re positioning a home to attract qualified buyers or uncovering hidden inventory that aligns with a buyer’s goals. I specialize in residential real estate, relocation services, and helping families move into the highly sought-after Dripping Springs Independent School District (DSISD).

My husband and I relocated to Driftwood from North Austin to raise our two sons within DSISD. We’ve now lived here for over seven years and have grown to love the natural beauty, small-town charm, and welcoming community that define the area. Our boys attend Cypress Springs Elementary, a Lighthouse-certified campus, where they’re thriving both academically and socially.

Outside of real estate, I stay involved by volunteering my time and skills to support local organizations like the Rotary Club of Dripping Springs, Dripping Springs PTA, and the Dripping Springs Community Library. I’m also an advocate for locally owned businesses, knowing that their success helps protect property values and neighborhood character.

Whether you're looking to buy a home in Dripping Springs or Driftwood, sell your home in Rim Rock, Founders Ridge, Parten Ranch, or another one of our amazing communities, or relocate to the Texas Hill Country, I offer expert guidance through every step. My clients trust me for clear communication, strategic planning, and results-driven service. Many of those relationships evolve into long-term friendships—because how Real Estate is done matters.
