About Alyse

Alyse Black started Heart of Austin Homes in 2017 with her husband, John Blackman, and together they have closed more than 450 transactions across Austin. Alyse is a Certified Luxury Home Marketing Specialist (CLHMS™), Certified Residential Specialist (CRS), Certified Negotiation Expert, and Certified International Property Specialist, and holds degrees in business, marketing/communications, and international studies. More than 110 clients have left Alyse + John five-star reviews across all internet review sites. Alyse is also a working singer-songwriter with well over a thousand performances behind her, and she'll tell you it's the best negotiation training she ever got. You learn to read a room fast. You learn the night isn't about you — it's about the people who showed up. And you learn to stay composed when something goes sideways in the middle of it. John spent years as a software engineer before financing and building more than fifty homes across Austin, so questions about foundations, framing, and what a builder is actually telling you get answered by someone who has stood on the site. They keep the brokerage small on purpose — clients work with the two of them rather than get handed down a chain. Alyse + John work throughout the city, most often in west and south Austin, including Rollingwood, Westlake, Tarrytown, Barton Creek, and the Eanes ISD corridor, where they also live with their three children. Mostly, she picks up the phone. She'll tell you the thing you need to hear rather than the thing that closes faster. And she works to make a transaction that could be the most stressful season of your year turn out not to be. Rooted in Austin. Fueled by expertise. Guided by heart.
