What do you like most or is most rewarding about your job? Helping clients through life changes, from first time homes, to upsizing for kids, to downsizing for empty nesters. All are emotional seasons yet each have beautiful silver linings.
“Theres no better time to buy or sell than now” What are your thoughts regarding the current real estate market in Austin and surrounding areas? The current home inventory is reduced and interest rates are at all time lows. It is a great sellers market. There is however a potential tsunami of foreclosure properties that may hit the market in the coming months, which could potentially impact competition and pricing. If someone is considering selling anytime in the near future, now is a great time for us to talk. Lets evaluate your specific situation and see what is the best decision for you!
