Happy Thursday, Y’all! Yesterday as I was sharing my enthusiasm with my daughter about all the firsts that our new vice-president represents, it reminded me of the importance of representation in leadership. I greatly appreciate working with Compass, a company that truly walks the walk and has a diverse team of leaders at the helm! On the local real estate front, I've had so many clients and friends asking what factors are causing so much heat in the Austin market. While there are a variety of economic factors at play, a significant part of the equation is that the increase in our time spent at home has brought forth deficiencies in our homes, which is the catalyst for making a change. If you are considering making a change yourself, but are worried about finding your new home due to low inventory, we have access to several programs that allow you to buy first and then sell. Our clients have found this to relieve so much stress in the process. Curious? I'd love to share the options and possibilities with you! |
