"Libby helped us sell our home in the Mueller neighbourhood in Austin in the fall of 2020 during the COVID pandemic. She went above and beyond what we'd expect from an agent. Libby was able to instantly identify a successful strategy for marketing the house, she knew the neighborhood, similar homes, as well as prospective buyer profiles. I could tell from the 1st conversation we had that she knew exactly how to sell our house fast without leaving any money on the table. Libby was very hands-on throughout the process. She guided us on how to stage our house at no cost to us, using our existing furniture as well as her own pieces that she brought in. She was able to get a photographer in at a short notice, host a successful and safe open house event, and schedule home showings. And do all of that respecting our schedule and while we still lived very comfortably in the house. Libby put in the effort to price the house just right against competition on the market. She attracted multiple buyers who came back with offers above the asking price, and then guided us to select the best offer for us. Thanks to her the house stood out above other listings in the area and sold in one weekend!!! Libby was very professional, on time, and it was always a joy to hear from her. I could not recommend her highly enough<"

"Amazing. Libby went above and beyond to help us find the perfect home. We are moving to Texas from out of state and Libby also helped us to find local contractors and teams to renovate our new home before we landed in Texas."

"Libby was the ultimate partner during our home search. She gave fantastic advice, was proactive, kind, and was an absolute pleasure to work with. We couldn't imagine going through a home-buying process with anyone else."
