Are You Considering Relocating to Austin, Texas? An Open Letter

Dear Potential Austin Home Buyer,

Austin is a beautiful and eclectic town with an optimistic and youthful spirit.  I can understand why you would like to live here with us.  I was born and raised in Dallas, but I have lived here for over 22 years now.

If you are considering relocating to the Austin, Texas area, I would love the opportunity to help you find the right home.  I don't normally write "look at me" articles in my blog, but I realized that not doing so might actually be a disservice to relocating buyers who are unfamiliar with Austin.

I have been selling real estate full-time in the Austin area and the surrounding towns since early 1997, and I have sold homes in almost every single MLS area that we have in our system (there are a LOT of them).  My agents and I are able to assist you with ANY type of home or multifamily property that you are interested in purchasing.

Over the past couple of years, I have personally represented home buyers from $62,500 to $3.4 million.  I handle homes, condos, townhomes, downtown lofts, ranches, duplexes, fourplexes, and more. 

I have never had a complaint with the Texas Real Estate Commission against me or any of the agents who work for me.  I have never been involved in a mediation or a lawsuit in well over a decade of high-volume real estate practice, which is saying a lot in this day and age. 

I am known among my peers and past clients as an honest broker/agent.  There are certainly others who have sold more homes than I have, but you would be hard-pressed to find an agent with more integrity than me.  I would rather talk you out of a home purchase or an offer on your home than to assist you in making a bad decision.

I haven't yet had a client that I couldn't get along with (please don't feel the need to test this, however).  The same goes for other agents, although I have certainly had my share of challenges. 

I am a devoted husband of seventeen years and a doting father of four terrific kids (one son, three daughters).  If you're nice to me, I might even show you some pictures or let you meet them while you're here in town. :-)  I'll even take you to lunch if you like.

I have heard many potential Austin buyers say to me, "I haven't really had a good experience with agents before."  Truly, I've had plenty of bad experiences with agents, too, and I am in the business!

When you get right down to it, I want your business and I am not afraid to ask for it.  Why not give me a call and let me earn it?  I hope to hear from you sometime soon!  I can assure you that you will not be disappointed.  In fact, you might just make a new friend.

You can call me at 512-796-7653 (cell) or email me at jason@austintexashomes.com.  Thanks for taking a minute to read this post!

I am not relocating to Austin, but I do love that city.

A nice warm Texas welcome to a great city, Jason.  Austin would be at the top of my list, if I consider Texas in my future.  I have a good friend who owns a real estate company in Austin (Jackie Clark), but you're winning me over.

MARGARET - Thanks!  I think Austin is far and away the best place to live in Texas.  I appreciate your comment!

You, and I, are one of the few agents in the country with buyers.  Austin, ranked as one of the top markets followed by my market.  As I mentioned earlier - my client - Amelia and her parents will be relocating to the Triangle and they need a little push.

I hope you knocked on some wood with that "never" you wrote in front of the words mediation and lawsuit...   Just kidding, well, sort of. 

Austin looks like a beautiful city, hopefully I'll see it sometime.

Jason, I love Austin. I lived there for seven years and enjoyed every minute of it. I had no idea Texas could be so beautiful until I discovered Austin. Compelling promotion of your service

Jeff, You are SO wonderful.  How could anyone resist (LOL).  I think it's fine to share your good points.
Posted by Dan Forbes about 4 years ago
Jason, this is an excellent letter to people considering relocating to Austin.  Posting it on your blog is a much more efficient way of spreading the word than randomly stuffing envelopes and mailing this letter to everyone who lives outside of Austin, TX.

Austin is a great city. The music scene is vibrant and the capital area very picturesque. I went to a convention there once and I hope to go again.
