Under contract 🙌

My client just secured this beautiful home for almost $10K under list price — and to top it off, they’re getting $5K back with a buyer’s rebate! 💰

In a market where a lot of buyers feel like they have to overpay, this is what the right strategy (and timing) can do.

Beach home secured in Galveston 🌊🏡

Super excited for my clients—they just closed on their first beach home!

We were able to get it $30K under list price 💰 and they also received a $2,000 Red Pear Realty rebate at closing 🙌

That’s what a strong strategy and negotiation can do.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Grateful for amazing clients like this! 🙏

Helping this homeowner price their home correctly and watching it sell at the asking price was a great result for everyone involved. The right pricing strategy makes all the difference.

Thank you for trusting me with the sale of your home! 🏡🔑

If you or someone you know is thinking about buying or selling, I’m always happy to help.

Some homes hold more than memories — they hold chapters of our lives.

For this family, selling their home marked the end of one chapter and the beginning of a new one. Moments like this can be bittersweet, but they also make room for new beginnings and new memories.

It was an honor to help their mom through the process and see these two excited to celebrate the moment.

Wishing this family all the best in their next chapter. ❤️

📊 Austin Market Update – January 2026

Homes are selling for an average of 91% of their original list price 👀 On a median-priced home of $400,495, that 9% gap equals roughly $36,000 in potential negotiating room 💰

For buyers, that’s leverage.
🏡 More inventory (4.0 months)
⏳ Longer days on market (89 days)
🤝 More room to negotiate

This isn’t the “offer $50K over asking” market anymore.

Prepared buyers — especially those fully pre-approved — are in a strong position to negotiate price, closing costs, or concessions.

If you’ve been waiting for a window of opportunity… this might be it.
