Specializing in classic Central Austin homes (including the cool 78704 SoCo and SoLa areas,)   Downtown condos and lofts, and the hot East Side.  I love the vintage homes and can really see the possibilities in fixer-uppers.  I like the modern, contemporary homes that are being built - with a special interest in the "green" and sustainable homes.  I know where to find the unusual property to fit an interesting lifestyle.

There are a lot of things to do in Austin – the live music, the hike & bike trails, salsa dancing at the Oasis at Lake Travis… I want you to be able to enjoy them, while I handle all the details of your real estate transaction. My goal is to assist you in making an informed decision, whether it is your home or an investment property. I will then make the process as easy as possible for you, whether you are moving across town or relocating cross country.

I am experienced in 1031 exchanges of investment properties as well as purchasing them with a self directed IRA.  I also have access to several special programs for first time homebuyers, affordable housing, and teacher, nurses, fire fighters and police.

A native Texan, I earned a BA from Hamline University, and went to graduate school at the University of Minnesota. I worked in the hospitality industry and owned my own restaurant, before moving to Austin in 1992.
