Some real estate transactions just hit different 🤍
And this one is a perfect example of how relationships, strategy, and timing come together to create the right outcome.

How This Austin Relocation Began

These buyers were introduced to me by two people already in my world:
a past client and an old college sorority friend. Proof that relationships really do come full circle—especially in real estate.

We first met in March for an initial relocation consultation. Instead of rushing the process, we focused on the big picture:

• Ideal timelines

• Smart relocation strategy

• What moving to Austin, Texas would realistically look like for their next chapter

Coordinating a Multi-State Home Sale the Right Way

Because they were selling a home out of state, coordination mattered.

I connected them with a Sotheby’s advisor in Virginia to handle the sale of their current home while we simultaneously planned their move to Austin. This ensured:

• Consistent communication between markets

• Proper timing between sale and purchase

• A smoother, lower-stress transition

Then we waited—patiently—for the right moment.

Why Timing Matters in the Austin Real Estate Market

Summer came and went. Fall arrived. And eventually, the timing felt right.

In relocation scenarios, waiting for the right market window is often just as important as finding the right home. This allowed us to:

• Monitor inventory

• Watch pricing trends

• Move decisively when the opportunity appeared

Touring Homes in Austin: When You Know, You Know

On their house-hunting trip, we toured nearly a dozen homes across Austin.

Ironically, the very first home we saw ended up being the one.

They felt it.
I felt it.

When that happens, my role shifts from “showing agent” to  Sotheby's strategic advisor—making sure we act quickly but thoughtfully.

A few days later, we were officially under contract.

Closing During the Holidays (Yes, It’s Possible)

From Christmas through New Year’s Eve, we stayed connected through:

• Voice notes

• Late-night calls

• Strategy check-ins

The goal was simple: a smooth, stress-free closing, even during the holidays.

And honestly? It never felt like work.

When clients trust the process—and trust the advice—the experience becomes collaborative, efficient, and genuinely enjoyable.

What Made This Transaction Different

What stood out most about this transaction wasn’t just the result—it was the trust.

• Clear communication

• A defined strategy

• Mutual respect

• And a shared goal

That combination is what allows deals to move smoothly, even when timelines are tight or logistics are complex.

Thinking About Relocating to Austin?

If you’re considering a move to Austin—whether from another state or just another part of Texas—the right guidance makes all the difference.

I believe real estate should be:

• Strategic

• Transparent

• Effective

• And yes… we can even have a little fun along the way.

If you’re looking for a real estate partner who helps you navigate the process with clarity and confidence, I’d love to connect and discuss a strategy that works for you.
