Originally from Seattle, Washington, Jesse Schaeffer moved to Austin in 2020 with his wife, Heather, and their two dogs, Kevin and Linda. Tired of the constant rain, they sought Austin’s sunshine, warm weather, and friendly community. Now settled in the Hill Country near Marble Falls and Spicewood, Jesse appreciates being able to enjoy the outdoors nearly every day of the year and takes full advantage of Austin’s vibrant food scene and welcoming atmosphere.
Before transitioning to real estate, Jesse spent 15 years in the fitness industry, beginning as a personal trainer and later managing teams of trainers. This experience honed his ability to listen, guide, and motivate others toward their goals—qualities he brings to every real estate transaction. Inspired by a positive experience with his own Realtor in Seattle, Jesse got his license in 2020 and has since made outstanding client experiences his top priority. Known for his calm demeanor, solution-focused approach, and commitment to excellence, Jesse works tirelessly to ensure his clients feel confident and cared for every step of the way.
Jesse and Heather, who have been married for 15 years, share their home with Kevin, a mutt who looks like a miniature Irish Wolfhound, and Linda, a playful French bulldog. In his free time, Jesse enjoys walking through his neighborhood, riding motorcycles with Heather in the Hill Country, reading, and watching movies. When he’s not relaxing at home, he loves exploring the Ann and Roy Butler Hike and Bike Trail with his dogs or supporting animal rescue organizations like Austin Pets Alive, where he adopted Kevin in 2024.
