Discreet, patient and precise

For fourteen years I have represented a small number of clients at a time: families moving to the lake, executives relocating to Austin, and owners selling homes they spent decades building.

Every home gets a pricing study, an architectural photographer and a buyer list built by hand.

  • Private and off-market introductions
  • Fluent in architecture and design
  • Relocation for families and executives
  • Trusted lenders, inspectors and attorneys

Selling a home of this calibre

The right buyer for a singular home is rarely found on a portal. We start with a private preview for qualified buyers and their agents, then decide together whether and when to go public.

You see every showing, every piece of feedback and every offer, in writing, the same day.
