With 25 years of experience as a Realtor®, my goal is to assist you in making an informed decision, whether it is your home or an investment property. I will then help make the process as easy as possible for you, whether you are moving across town, relocating cross country, or buying a rental property. I specialize in classic central Austin homes, renovations, and downtown condos and lofts. I am experienced in 1031 tax deferred exchanges of investment properties, as well as holding them in an IRA and other strategies for protecting your investments with special LLCs. As a Home-staging Specialist, I can help to maximize the appeal and speed up the sale of your home. *A portion of the proceeds from each sale goes to animal rescue groups to help our animal friends find good homes.*
