A REALTOR WHO'S WALKED IN YOUR BOOTS

The story behind the uniform

I'm Ian Alkire — I spent 14 years on active duty as an Army Combat Engineer Military Working Dog Program Manager/Kennel Master/Trainer/Handler, including 4+ years of combat deployments to both Iraq and Afghanistan. After the Army, I served 5 years with the Department of Homeland Security — Canine Training and Evaluation Instructor and Certification Authority before getting my real estate license in December 2020 and eventually co-founding Infinity Family Properties & Associates with my wife Jazmene, our Broker of Record.

I've done the PCS shuffle. I know what it's like to house-hunt from 8,000 miles away, to stress about schools while you're still clearing post, and to wonder if your BAH will actually cover a decent neighborhood. That's why I built this resource hub — so you don't have to figure it out alone.

Every recommendation on this site comes from personal experience or our vetted network. I don't do cookie-cutter referrals. When you work with us, you get a veteran who speaks your language, understands your timeline, and treats your family like his own.

"I don't just sell houses — I help military families build a home in Central Texas. I've been where you are."

QUESTIONS MILITARY FAMILIES ASK MOST

Frequently asked questions

If you don't see your question here, reach out — Ian responds within 2 hours.

Yes — you can start the VA loan process before you arrive. With a pre-approval letter and your PCS orders, you can make offers remotely. Ian's team handles virtual tours, remote closings, and Power of Attorney transactions regularly. Many military families close before their report date.
BAH rates vary by rank, dependency status, and zip code. For the San Antonio MHA (which covers most of Central Texas), an E-5 with dependents receives approximately $1,800/month, while an O-3 with dependents receives approximately $2,400/month. Ian can help you match your BAH to the right neighborhood and price range.
Absolutely. Ian specializes in remote transactions for military families. Virtual tours, video walkthroughs, electronic signatures, and Power of Attorney closings are all standard. Many of our clients are still stationed overseas or at their current duty station when they go under contract.
You don't have to — but it makes a significant difference. A military-friendly realtor understands VA loan requirements, PCS timelines, BAH budgeting, and the unique pressures of a military move. Ian has personally been through the PCS process as a 14-year Army veteran, so he speaks your language and anticipates your needs.
If your orders are cancelled or amended before closing, there are protections in place. The Military Clause (SCRA) can be included in your purchase contract, allowing you to exit without penalty if orders change. Ian ensures every contract includes appropriate military protections.
Comal ISD (New Braunfels) and Wimberley ISD are rated 'B' by TEA in the 2026 accountability ratings. Hays CISD (Kyle/Buda) is rated 'B' and growing fast with new facilities. San Marcos CISD is rated 'C' with strong bilingual programs. Check our School Finder page for detailed comparisons.
For buyers, there is typically $0 out-of-pocket cost to you — the seller pays the buyer's agent commission in most transactions. For sellers, Ian offers competitive commission structures with full-service marketing. Every consultation is free, no obligation.
Yes! Through our nationwide affiliate network, Ian can connect you with a trusted, vetted agent at virtually any duty station in the country. Visit our Out-of-Area Referrals page or contact Ian directly.
