Michael DaSilva is a native Texan with a deep love for his hometown Austin. After graduating from The University of Texas in 1999 with a degree in Sport Management, Michael initially pursued a career in marketing and event management within UT Athletics before following his passion into the real estate industry.
In 2006, Michael joined forces with his family to establish a residential real estate brokerage, dedicated to providing exceptional service and an unwavering commitment to integrity, which continues to thrive almost two decades later.
Even though the real estate industry is always evolving, Michael’s ability to connect with people, coupled with his extensive knowledge of the local market has consistently positioned him as a trusted advisor and a sought-after professional. He works throughout the Austin area, especially in Bee Cave, Lakeway, Dripping Springs, and Westlake and enjoys representing buyers of new construction as well as resale homes.
Beyond his thriving career, Michael remains deeply rooted within his community. He actively engages in charitable initiatives and volunteers regularly with high school students at his church. He and his wife Julie partner together in the real estate business and have three sons.
Avalar Austin Real Estate:
The relationship-based business model is a cornerstone of Avalar Austin Real Estate, the full-service real estate agency where Michael serves as one of three brokers/owners and focuses on day-to-day activities of the brokerage and agent support. Michael was one of the original founders of the agency in 2006, when Avalar opened three offices in the Austin area.
Today, Avalar operates its main office in Northwest Austin, plus two additional offices in Burnet and Lampasas as part of his farm & ranch arm, Carpenter Real Estate. Through fluctuating markets, a growing roster of agents and changing broker/agent trends, Avalar & Carpenter Real Estate have maintained their high-touch customer service culture. While agent mentorship, training, coaching and relationship-based business are foundational values, Michael knows from experience the challenge of maintaining a high level of quality service in an ever-changing industry. Brokers must simultaneously keep up with legislation, technology, marketing and business operations, all while furthering their local-market expertise.
