Writing an offer is only the beginning to home ownership once a buyer finds their home. The path to the closing table is not always straight, but certain steps are common to most transactions. This course guides agents through the forms used for a typical residential closing, the stages of the transaction and avoiding pitfalls for a successful closing day. Agents will learn key elements of the contract and ancillary documents with a focus on strategy to submit a solid offer. Critical timelines explored will include negotiating and navigating through the option and appraisal phases and what is going on behind the scenes with title and lending. The agent will gain a clear understanding of the sequence of events from contract to closing to provide higher level service while reducing liability and establishing a long-term client relationship. In addition, this course satisfies the 3-hour contract related work for your TREC license renewal.

I enjoy serving as a real estate ambassador and broker for my home state of Texas as we grow and welcome new residents every day. I grew up in a family-owned business and learned first-hand the value of serving people. My background in working with Chambers of Commerce for more than 20 years offered a front-row seat to community change and forward planning for future growth. I apply this experience to working with my clients, many of whom are relocating here for better opportunities. As a fifth-generation Texan with a love for my state's history and heritage, I volunteer at Save Austin's Cemeteries and serve as a guide for the Austin City Running Tours sharing Texas culture with visitors and locals. I also serve as a Literacy Partner at a local elementary school and am the founding sponsor of Rockin’ Readers, a program to promote literacy in our community. I am passionate about music, fitness and travel and enjoy the amenities Austin offers by exploring the city's many music venues and hiking trails.
