This home is a dream come true!! Located in the highly sought after neighborhood of Teravista in Round Rock, Texas and sits beautifully on a corner lot in private, quiet loop. Not only is this home in a Golf Course Community but has all the bells and whistles! Featuring granite counter tops, stainless steel appliances wine fridge and plenty of room for friends and family to gather inside and out!

The front porch is so inviting! I think I'll just sit right here with my morning coffee as the dew dries!

Cute office just as you enter through the front. Walk in through the French Doors and enjoy the view and natural light. I just love those 3 boxed windows!

Did you remember Valentine’s Day is tomorrow?? You didn’t! No worries I have some ideas for you! We can’t always be on top of everything including non-major holidays (yes it isn’t Thanksgiving!). But here are a few suggestions that are still thoughtful but quick!

Blanket- No one is immune to the special softness and warmth that is a fleece or Sherpa blanket. All major stores have them and they’re not very expensive!

Candles- spending a good $15 on a really good candle, will make anyone happy!

Love Coupons- Who wouldn’t love the option of getting out of a chore they really don’t want to do! Give your significant other this with cute coupons promising to do their chores! (Just remember to put an

Hello again, home owners, prospective buyers, and real-estate moguls.

I was a psychology major in college and I loved it. It was fascinating to learn how the brain works but I was always fascinated by business practices and how to make them work best for productivity in the workplace. So I decided to minor in business administration. Sitting at my desk in Berkshire Hathaway, a lot of the different aspects of both of those fields are fitting together. Being a staff member where the agents are my clients throws you into the world of customer service. You have to know the way your client thinks and how best to serve them. And this is a fast paced business and you have to keep up. Now, most people don’t realize the impact a great staff can have on a brokerage because common knowledge says

The Los Angeles Rams and New England Patriots go head to head this Sunday for the Super Bowl 2019. Every Super Bowl party needs a kitchen counter full of appetizers, finger foods and yummy snacks! And I'm not talking about a 7-Layer Dip, buffalo wings or BBQ. When you think about Los Angeles, there is great food just around every corner. The same goes for Boston which is home to the New England Patriots. Here are some great party platters that will surely satisfy all New Englanders and Californians! 

Who doesn't love a good crab and bacon dip? It's a unique dish that you don't typically see at parties but it should make more of an appearance, don't you think? Well, maybe in the North East,

We kicked off this year with one of our quarterly sales meetings! This is such a great time to get in touch with the busy realtors that work at our brokerage.

We starting by networking and eating a great meal. We also get to meet our Family of Services and mingle with them. It is a lot of talking and catching up! Our realtors work hard, they don’t always get to come into the office as often as we would love them to!

Generally, we schedule a speaker but this meeting we wanted to focus on our tools and the services we provide as a brokerage and staff. So we decided

All I can say is LIVE OAKS! I remember when my dad was buying his first home. His agent kept taking him to vacant lots with out trees and my dad kept saying "where are all the trees?" That stuck with me and I am all about the trees! The very air we breath is improved by trees and are the biggest plant on the planet! Not just that, but trees stabilize the soil and give life to wildlife. This gorgeous Ranchette is littered with Live Oak trees and it can be yours! 

Sitting on 6.070 acres and features a guest house that you can live in while you build your custom dream home! Bring the horses as there is a 4-stall horse barn on the property! The entire property is fence and gated as well.

Did you know there was a day dedicated to cutting your energy cost? Did you know that this day is celebrated nation wide? Why is this important? Just like most things, it's all about the Benjamin's. When looking to save, re-insulate your home. This can save a homeowner tons of money and possibly pay for itself within a year.

But not just that, it's also about sustainability. There's only one planet Earth and we must take care of her! Reducing your carbon footprint can begin at home so take the steps now! "The average American consumes 6.8 metric tons of oil in carbon emissions each year, more than three times the average person in China. So if every American took the time and energy to do this
