The past 17 years of representing sellers and buyers in Austin real estate has brought me many good things, the most important of which is client relations, which I have so carefully nurtured and keenly enjoyed. I guide my clients through a process that is sometimes treacherous and emotional, one which involves a vast amount of detail as well as larger market elements, and my goal is to always provide guidance with clarity, professionalism, empathy, insight, tenacity, nuance and a timeless sense of responsibility and care. Most often a friendship is created or deepened, and that is always the best. It would be my pleasure to help you with any of your Austin real estate needs. You can be assured that I will give you my very best!

Three-time client, Jennie Pace, says of Leah ” She’s committed to detail and fun to work with, she is outstanding. We’ve had her help us with the past three real estate transactions, and I’ve always felt like we came out on top. Couldn’t recommend a realtor more.”

This individualized approach has resulted in clients getting the most bang for their buck, time and again.
