She took care of every detail from beginning to end. -took pictures of the property when the tenants were still present in order to prepare the home to list -met with subcontractors to let them into the home to provide quotes for repairs and upgrades. -kept us (sellers) updated through calls, texts, emails and pictures on the work subcontractors were doing to our home -removed a dishwasher that was left behind after a new one was installed -moved quickly to address a water leak after a winter freeze -Kept us well informed on next steps in the selling process -Successfully closed our home.

"My experience with Norma was truly exceptional! Norma went above and beyond to assist us in finding the perfect home. As a first-time home buyer with limited home/market knowledge, I relied heavily on her expertise. Norma patiently guided us through the entire process, taking the time to educate us along the way. She thoroughly grasped our specific needs and preferences, ensuring that every property she showed us aligned with our wants. Whenever we encountered potential concerns with a property, Norma seemed to always have a professional connection who could provide guidance on the matter, which greatly aided our decision-making process. Her proactive communication, meticulous attention to detail, and willingness to go the extra mile were truly commendable. Norma's dedication to her clients is evident in her tireless efforts to secure the ideal home for them. I wholeheartedly recommend Norma to anyone in search of an outstanding realtor!"

"Norma is very professional and knowledgeable of the Austin real estate market. I knew she would never disappoint me and I was right. She did an outstanding job in helping me buy a house in Austin. She helped me negotiate, was attentive and gave me excellent advice. While I was out of the country, she helped me with the home buying process extensively. She made herself always available. She kept me posted on the progress and made sure that I was informed and ready for the next step. Without her help I would not have made it. I am really grateful for her efforts. Thank you so much Norma for the excellent job. I highly recommend her to friends, family, neighbors and co-workers. She is superb!"

"Norma Acosta goes above and beyond whether she is representing you as a buyer or a seller. I have purchased one house and sold two houses with Norma representing me. She provides sound advice and counsel. I was confident she helped me maximize my sales price. She supported me throughout the process. Whatever I needed help getting done, she had the solution from her cultivated list of contractors that helped with everything from packing and cleaning to electrical and landscaping work. Norma truly provides a full-service real estate experience."

"Whether you are buying or selling, I highly recommend Norma Acosta for your real estate needs. My family has had the pleasure of working with Norma on both sides of the transaction. She first helped us purchase a home in Cedar Park during our move from Dallas. Norma was so professional, thorough and extremely client-focused during the purchase of that home, we knew we would turn to her again when it came time to sell and look for a different home in north Austin. We found Norma to be a highly attentive agent, as if we were her only customers, although we know that was not the case. When purchasing our first home with her, she asked us many questions to gain a good understanding of our needs and preferences. And when it came time to sell the home, she took great care in helping us get it ready for showing. The hard work paid off – within 24 hours of the house being listing, we received multiple offers, some above the asking price. The research she did to assist with assessing fair market values was extremely thorough. She was transparent in all her communications and research, providing detailed numbers and figures requested, which my accountant husband truly appreciated! Norma’s great attention to the details enabled a smooth transaction when both buying and selling. She is incredibly responsive to questions, often responding immediately to our late night emails. In addition to being knowledgeable and hardworking, Norma is highly personable with an engaging personality. During the search for our second home, we avoided purchasing a home which would have cost us tens of thousands of dollars addressing plumbing issues discovered within the short 10-day option period, thanks to Norma and her recommended plumber. We appreciated her recommendation of very thorough and competent contractors when completing our own testing and inspections during the option period. We are confident in our recommendation of Norma Acosta to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. In our opinion, she is hands-down the most customer-oriented agent in the business; and if we ever need to move again she will be our first choice in real estate agents. "

"I had the pleasure of working with Norma to purchase my first home. From start to finish, it was an absolute pleasure! She is highly knowledgeable about the local market and made sure I always felt like a priority. She took the time to understand my needs and budget. They were patient and answered all of my questions. She was very good in pointing out potential problems with homes and suggesting repairs or upgrades, knowing exactly what to look for. Once we found a home she helped negotiate to and helped me get the best possible price. They also walked me through every step of the closing process, making it as stress-free as possible. Will definitely be using her on the next home!"

Norma earned a BBA in Finance from The University of Texas at Austin and an MPA at the LBJ School of Public Affairs. She attended Teachers College at Columbia University, where she worked towards an Ed. D in Sociology and Education (ABD status). When she is not assisting clients, she spends treasured time with her husband and adult children, as well as with her church family. She considers herself a lifelong learner, particularly in the areas of health, improved quality of life and well-being through diet and exercise. Norma was raised in Round Rock in a home environment where she saw her parents of modest means invest in real estate with the goal of building a nest egg for the future. Norma recalls being part of the remodeling crew and becoming handy with a paintbrush at a very young age. She quickly learned the value of a strong work ethic and the importance of having integrity by doing the right thing simply because it is right.
The Austin area has been home to Norma all her life, with the exception of her attendance at Columbia University. During that time, she was focused on obtaining all the credentials necessary for a different career path. Little did she know that the historic brownstones of the upper west side of New York City, which she so admired, would beckon her to her true calling to become a Realtor and later a broker.
Being a real estate broker is not just a job for Norma; it is a way of life that continues to allow her to invest her time, energy, and attention into her family and clients. She’s enjoyed watching and supporting her three children as they’ve grown into their own uniqueness. She cherishes the decades-long relationships she’s established with clients, often giving advice on investments and construction/rehab projects long after the sale has been finalized. Norma intends to continue serving the Austin/San Antonio Metroplex for as long as she can with no plans of slowing down… perhaps, at least until grandkids arrive on the scene!
