Meet Elite’s Lisa Little of COMPASS Real Estate

For Lisa Little, real estate has always been about more than homes; it’s about people, trust, and the joy of guiding clients through pivotal life moments. As a seasoned agent and valued member of Dripping Springs Elite, Lisa combines local expertise, a heart for service, and a detail-oriented approach that makes her a trusted advisor in the Hill Country market.

Q: What inspired you to first get into real estate—and what keeps you passionate about it today?

A: I was drawn to real estate because I love helping people navigate big life moments. Over the years, I’ve learned it’s never just about the house—it’s about the people and the lives they’re building. That perspective is what fuels me every single day.

Q: How do you define success as an agent? Has that changed over time?

A: Success used to be tied to numbers and sales volume, but now it’s about relationships. If my clients feel supported, informed and confident in their decisions, I know I’ve done my job. That long-term trust means so much more than any transaction count.

Q: What's a memorable moment or story from a recent transaction that stuck with you?

A: A client recently said to me, “You made us feel like your only client.” In today’s fast-paced market, slowing down and providing that level of personalized attention takes intention—and it’s exactly the kind of service I strive to deliver every time.

Q: What’s one local spot in Dripping Springs you recommend to everyone?

A: Tillie’s at Camp Lucy. It’s a true Hill Country gem with a warm, inviting atmosphere and elevated dining that’s perfect for a special night out or impressing out-of-town guests.

Q: What’s a challenge you’ve overcome in your career that made you stronger?

A: Recent market shifts forced me to refine my strategies and lean heavily into client education. Staying steady when things felt uncertain strengthened my ability to guide clients with confidence, no matter the market conditions.

Q: When clients choose you, what do they consistently say they appreciate most?

A: They often say, “You thought of everything.” From staging to contract negotiations, I pride myself on anticipating needs and handling details so my clients don’t have to stress about them.

Q: What’s one trend you're watching in the market right now?

A: Buyers are more selective than ever. For sellers, this means presentation is critical; homes that are thoughtfully prepared and staged are the ones drawing serious interest and selling faster.

Q: What advice would you give someone just starting their real estate journey?

A: Find a professional you trust and lean into their expertise. There’s so much noise in the market, but a knowledgeable agent can cut through it and provide the clarity you need to move forward with confidence.

Q: How do you continue to grow professionally and personally each year?

A: I stay connected with driven, like-minded people…from mastermind groups to my Women in Business network. Constantly learning and sharing ideas keeps me sharp and inspired.

Q: Outside of work, what’s bringing you joy right now?

A: My kids are my greatest joy. Beyond that, I love getting lost in a good book or enjoying a quiet evening at home. The simple things keep me grounded and remind me to stay grateful.
