“I can do this!” I thought to myself. “It can’t be that hard!!!” I had sold four of my six personal homes as a FSBO (For Sale By Owner) in the last 15 years, before I became a Realtor. As I write this, I can almost hear the cringes of my fellow Realtors. But, it’s...
I got an email from a lender a few weeks ago talking about how 2022 was probably the worst year for Realtors in a long time and to persevere until things got better next year. It made me pause and reflect on the year that I had and I must say, 2022 was probably the...

My real estate office, Magnolia Realty Austin Hill Country, is located behind Mazama Coffee on College Ave. and we always have booths at the local festivals and events.
