We are an Austin-based developer with multiple projects under our belt and have worked with many brokers around town. I can say with absolute certainty that Lizz and her team have been the best, in multiple parts of the city and at multiple different price points. When we first found Lizz, we had hired her team after firing two other highly qualified realtors on a multi-unit project in Bouldin, both of whom had a great track record and proven results but were simply not gaining much traction on our project. Lizz's team, from day one, exhibited an exemplary level of professionalism, knowledge, and assertiveness, in every step of the process - big or small. They had excellent knowledge of the product and the price that would get it sold in our desired time frame, and they went above and beyond to try to please buyers and coordinate the different parties involved to ensure smooth closings with as little stress as possible for us as the developer.

Client Testimonials
I was looking for a very particular type of property, something that wasn't in high supply. Lizz helped me over the course of years to find exactly what I wanted. She was always in my corner, always available when needed, always represented my interests with skillfully measured tenacity, and was truly kind, thoughtful, and understanding through the process. Lizz regularly went out of her way to build new relationships, make connections, breakthrough challenges, and solve problems in order to help me find and purchase my oasis. She exceeded my admittedly high expectations in every way - and I'd be honored to work with her again in the future.
Lizz started as my realtor on two house sales and a purchase in the neighborhood. Now I consider her a friend. My wife and I had difficulty during the sale of our last house and Lizz and her team jumped to the rescue, kind of like my own superheroes! She took the time to get to know our needs, gave opinions even when it was not what I wanted to hear. Everyone thinks their house is priceless! Lizz was able to present our homes in the best light. As a result, our home sold over list price and in very short order. She completely exceeded our highest expectations. I would recommend Lizz to anyone looking for an outstanding real estate professional in Austin!
