Testimonials
The Hill Country Luxury Group was fantastic! Frank is as skilled as anyone I've worked with. His being an appraiser too gives him much more incite with real estate and was invaluable! Ashley handles all the specifics beautifully keeping my wife and I from having to worry about anything. And Hunter is always checking in to see how things are going and assure us we are headed in right direction. Hagan has a wonderful personal touch and brings energy and expertise to the process. Their marketing efforts are second to none. Felt more like a high powered commercial brokerage firm than residential. I've worked with Hunter and his team multiple times and every experience has been over the top. They absolutely know what they are doing.

Frank Baker and his team exceeded all of my expectation selling my home. They work as a team in their office. It's as if I had five professionals taking care of the sale of my house instead of just one.Their communication with me was outstanding. Their knowledge and connections to the community and surrounding areas made the process trouble-free and I mean trouble-free! Who would have thought selling a home could have been so pleasant.On a scale of 1 to 10 they're 12. In service, prep work and execution of the sale.

If you are looking to buy or sell a lakefront property, look no further than Hunter Croan and his teammates at LakeHouses4Sale.net including Frank Baker, our realtor. We have done both with Hunter’s team. Bought our lake house from Hunter 11 years ago and had such a great experience, we maintained contact and a friendship all that time. It was an easy decision when we considered listing the house for sale. We reached out to Hunter. He and Frank sat down with us and laid out the plan, the marketing strategy and expectations. Everything was done first class, as promised and we had 5 offers on day one on MLS. Their cutting edge marketing included widespread reach, drone aerial property video, and inside the house virtual and still photography. If you want the best in the business, look no further. They epitomize the “Waterfront Lifestyle”. You will be treated with respect and professionalism, and you will make lake friends for life.
~ Mike Hartman, LTC, US Army Retired.
Frank' Baker's expertise in home appraisals was a vital attribute in his amazing work helping us sell our home. Because it "was not a cookie-cutter home", his advice on what we should and shouldn't do to get our waterfront property in the best condition possible was outstanding. Frank is incredibly nice, explained everything thoroughly and helped us through a successful sale. We highly recommend him!
~ Cindy VanEpps
The Lakefront Group were amazing to work with and so professional every step of the way! We had 5 offers in 48 hours and sold well over the listing price.

I would recommend Lakefront Group to all my friends who may be interested in listing their property in the future.

I cannot say enough good things about Lake Houses for Sale. They are simply the best. Their vendors are superb from photographers to deep cleaners. They know how to make your house look its best, market to a broad audience and price your home effectively. They work as a team communicating effectively every step of the way. Frank helped us through a challenging negotiation process, and I trusted his advice at every decision point. Selling my parent's happy place was an emotional journey, and I was incredibly grateful to have Frank and his team as my sherpa.
~ Karen Redding
Frank and his team are fantastic. They have a great sense of market and gave us sound advice throughout the process, from an initial market read to preparing the home for sale, to responding to offers and making the close go smoothly.

I can’t say enough good things about them!

~ John Wren
Frank Baker couldn’t have been more helpful. We hadn’t had much experience with realtors and were cautious before this experience. He was patiently present in the pre-listing stage for advise. He and Ashley were always available in the listing stage explaining the necessary paperwork and it went very smoothly and quickly. He was in constant contact during the showing and offers stage helping us decipher the options. The closing and title company they use were just as helpful and informative. Thank you!
~ Dewayne & Janice Curry

~ Anne Tone
Frank and The Lakefront Group did a fantastic job! They made selling my home a breeze.
~ Mary McCarthy
Frank did an excellent job selling our property. The real estate photos and drone photography he lined up were top notch and I'm sure these went a long way in generating a lot of interest in our listing. We received multiple offers and he helped us work through them to select the deal that would get us top dollar with the least amount of risk. He was very responsive, even on nights and weekends, and when we had issues (on our side) and needed to push out closing date, he worked with the buyer to negotiate an extension with no complaints. Thanks Frank for all of your help!
~ Sylvia & William Alexander
“Frank Baker certainly "exceeded" our expectations as we were in the process of selling our home. Since we had lived in in the home for 22 years, we had a considerable amount of anxiety about putting the house on the market. However, Frank's professionalism and demeanor from the outset to putting the "Sold" sign in the yard were commendable. Consequently, we were extremely comfortable and pleased that he was working on our behalf. My wife and I highly recommend Frank to anyone looking for a real estate agent!!”
~ Dave and Gail Caven
“Frank is a true professional with knowledge of the industry and was always considerate of our needs. His hard work, dedication, and guidance through the process of selling our home was outstanding. It is our pleasure to recommend Frank as a top real estate agent without hesitation.”
~ Bobby and Doni Crisp
“We had Frank Baker for our "wonderful" realtor in 2016, how did we know he was the correct one? We quickly learned that his real estate knowledge, personality, love for his job, far exceeded others we had interviewed. He made the whole sale process run smoothly from beginning to end. He was on top of everything that needed to be done, always keeping us in the loop. In our transition to another state we have been reminded over and over that Frank Baker is the BEST realtor and we wish he was helping us now. You will be very happy to pick Frank Baker for your realtor, what a great guy!”
~ Lonnie and Karon Sutton
“Living most of our time in Ohio and not knowing local realtors, my husband and I were not certain what to expect when we met with Frank Baker to interview him to be our realtor. From that first meeting we knew we had the right man for the job! Frank far exceeded our expectations and surpassed all previous realtors we had used over the years. Frank explained things clearly, but most importantly, he showed he cared about every detail that would help sell our home. The decorator/ stager he employed on our behalf was terrific. After listing our home with Frank, we went back to Ohio. Frank took care of ever so many issues that needed to be handled in our absence: he arranged for a roofer (and new roof) when hail caused damage to ours; he called back a painter when some of our freshly pointed porch was not done correctly, he even helped us when a squirrel made its way into our attic! Even though it wasn't convenient for him, Frank took the time to come by our home frequently, checking the inside and out to make certain all was in order. (And he vacuumed the carpet when it showed the signs of traffic from other realtors!!!) And since when one is selling a home, the most important detail is how much it can be sold for, I need to mention that Frank got us a very fair price that exceeded similar homes in our neighborhood. If you want a realtor who is honest, straightforward and ever so helpful, you should look no further than Frank Baker!”
~ Tom and Melissa Pillari
“The sale of my home on FM 306 was easy because of Frank. I never new there was so much in selling a property and having an agent to take care of everything in a timely manner was a blessing. I was satisfied with all that was done to make the sale happen.”
~ Monica Friedel
“Frank was persistent in his effort and professional in his behavior. We would definitely use him again.”
~ Ron and Christie Defries
"Frank made the sale of our property almost effortless on our part. Always checking on other properties around ours to make sure we had ours priced right. And he was always available to answer our questions. We are very satisfied with his services."
~ Ron Bartlett
"We recently chose Frank Baker to represent us in the sale of our riverfront home in New Braunfels. Our home was somewhat unique and we felt that Frank's background in the appraisal end of real estate would make him the best realtor for us. He did a great job for us! He was very knowledgeable and professional and was a great help throughout the entire process. We ended up with a contract after two days on the market and for more than 20% more than the other realtors were advising us to list it for. We would definitely recommend him to others looking for a great realtor."
~ Clyde and Marcia Combs
"Frank was an excellent agent. He communicated with us in a timely manner and answered all of our questions. He was also efficient and was able to sell our lot within 2 days of listing. Frank was also very personable and easy to work with. We so appreciate all of the hard work and dedication he put into getting our lot sold."
~ Jamie Pomykal
"As first time home-buyers, my wife and I had no idea where to start so we feel so greatful to have had Frank’s expertise to rely on. He explained every step of the process clearly and patiently. He was extremely responsive in answering our questions as they came up. He also worked hard to make sure we got the best deal possible through tough negotiations and good advice. I would recommend Frank to anybody looking to buy a home!"
~ Anthony and Jill Winn
"I would highly recommend working with Frank. Being that my wife and I were first time home buyers, he made the process of buying a home as smooth and simple as possible.

I cannot imagine having a more positive experience."
~ Chris and Crystal Winn

~ Kevin and Debbie Lenamond
"Frank, I want to thank you for all the hard work you put in to helping me sell my home. I thought I was pretty savvy staging my home but you came in, tweaked and made it perfect. And the photographer you selected made my house look so good, I wanted to put in an offer. By promptly returning phone calls and e-mails, you made the home selling experience quite simple for me. Thank you for presenting all the offers in the Excel spreadsheet. I still can’t believe how quickly it sold! The entire experience and the final sale exceeded my expectations. Your professionalism showed through, right from the beginning. I would recommend your services to anyone selling their home. Can’t wait to start shopping for a new one."
~ Teresa Walker
Frank was outstanding throughout the entire process. The marketing materials produced by Frank and his agency were second to none - we believe the marketing materials are a key reason our home sold in less than one week! We highly recommend Frank and the team!
~ Eric & Ricki Holt
We chose Frank Baker to help us sell our property in New Braunfels three years ago. He did such an outstanding job that we wanted him to help us with the sale of our next home in Austin. In both cases, his expertise was invaluable - first in setting the asking price (his background in appraisals helped with that) and then in marketing the property, helping us through the contract negotiation phase, and then on to the closing. All along the way, there were little steps that it helped to have his advice. We would definitely recommend Frank to anyone looking for a professional in the real estate business.
~ Clyde and Marcia Combs
It was a wonderful experience working with Frank and Ashley. They both did an excellent job of keeping me informed along the sales process of my home and they were extremely professional and timely. I highly recommend them to anyone in the market for top notch realtors.
~ Travis Eaton
Once in awhile you come across a realtor like Frank Baker. Honest, extremely responsive and knowledgeable, respectful of all, easy to work with. We worked with Frank long distance and he helped us sell two lots. He is a great listener but also offered good suggestions and opinions when needed. He made the process go smoothly and efficiently and he was spot on in listing price and length of sale. We believe his marketing program is tops! We highly recommend Frank Baker - his dedication to what he does is unmatched!

The Lakefront Group is a superb team to work with whether selling or buying your house.This latest sale I worked directly with Frank Baker. Frank has many years of appraisal experience, which was so beneficial during the negotiation process. Frank is very responsive and I highly recommend him.
~ Mary Lou Eaton
We found Frank through a neighbor and friend and took her recommendation and couldn't have been happier. It turns out Frank was also a neighbor and was very familiar with the area. He priced the house just right, and was completely right in how long it would take to sell. He was spot on. Frank was able to answer every question we had and handled all of our concerns with ease and good will. We can whole heartedly recommend him to handle all of your real estate needs.
