What do Clients Say?
With our previous experience with a realtor, my husband and I were very cautious on who we would work with. After a few hours with Ricky, he got our trust. He is the kind of Realtor that will really try hard and go out of his way to find the perfect property for you. He is not your typical Realtor wanting to sell a property for a quick buck. He will research the property in all aspects of its pros and cons, like its neighborhood, school district, location, traffic, etc. With a lot of help from Ricky, we were able to find the perfect house and seal the deal. He walked us through the entire process of closing. Even after the sale, Ricky was there to help us with any questions we had. We are very confident in recommending Ricky to our friends and family. I know I've said this many times, but THANKS AGAIN FOR ALL OF YOUR HELP! God bless and wishing you all the best in everything you do. I can't wait for our next property!

I wouldn't change a thing, great customer service! We also felt like you made us feel like we were your only customers (which we knew we weren't) but just the attention you gave us made us feel it was just us. I liked how you took the time to explain all the "real estate jargon". There were a lot of things that were really confusing but you really took the time to explain things in everyday terms. Thank you, we really appreciate your time and patience.

All things were done well and from beginning to end, was a very good experience. We felt very comfortable and assured throughout the entire process. As stressful as selling a home can be, this one was the most pleasurable experiences we have had.
Randy and Diana N
After relocating from California, our loan broker recommended Ricky Cain assuring us that he knew the Austin market. We were looking into another agent but after we met Ricky, we stopped looking. Yes, first impressions really count. This guy worked it. Searching for homes for months was a pleasant and fun experience with Ricky since he was able to maintain a good sense of humor during all circumstances. He always gave us recommendations without being pushy as well as giving great analysis of marketing reports.If you need an honest, trustworthy and hard working agent that is an excellent negotiator, look no further. Ricky is the Man. Be warned...you might also end up with a new friend.

Ricky was always on top of things. He also helped us save money. I would highly recommend him, he's a wonderful personal agent.

About Ricky
Ricky is blessed to co-lead one of the top-selling real estate groups in the country, Cain Realty Group (CRG). He began his real estate career in 2006, and in 2009, he and his wife, KodiKay, co-founded CRG. Ricky and KodiKay's passion for delivering a five-star customer service experience led to many referrals from clients and other Realtors nationwide, so starting the group happened organically. They both realized that they couldn't do it by themselves to deliver the five-star experience they were known for. Since 2009, CRG has continued to grow annually in both clients served and in attracting exceptional team members that align with CRG's Core Values.
Giving back to the less fortunate has always been at the top of Ricky and KodiKay's minds. Together, they have raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for KW Cares and support many local organizations in the greater Austin area. This passion for giving led them to create their non-profit, Cain Cares. Cain Cares was established to help CRG clients and their families get the support they need in times of severe need. This has inspired them to continue growing year after year to fund this mission that's near and dear to their hearts.
Coaching and teaching other agents and groups across the country is Ricky's passion. So many have poured into him and have helped him over the years, and he considers it a privilege to do this for others. Ricky was also a MAPS Mastery Coach for three years, coaching some of the country's top agents. He's also been fortunate to contribute to Gary Keller's Mastermind Group since 2015, an exclusive group of the country's top KW real estate agents. Ricky was also blessed to be a contributing author to the inspirational book Faith in Real Estate, which details the journeys and lessons learned of top Christian Real Estate Agents.
In Ricky's downtime, he enjoys spending time with his wife, son, and dog, Chandler Bing. He stays active by working out and running Town Lake, yet he also enjoys relaxing by watching a great movie or lounging by the pool at the Cain Oasis. Many who know him know that his Rickaritas are legendary, and he's known for gifting them to those who send him a referral. Lastly, Ricky has an extensive Monopoly collection that spans from the early 1900s to current editions. He doesn't just work in real estate; he plays and collects real estate, too.
