Working with a brokerage who embraces technology, innovates constantly, adopts new practices and tools, values relationships, and contributes to the advancement of our industry and the community are inspiring. The opportunity to lead the new Westlake market center is a perfect next move for me to share my knowledge and play a vital role in something larger."
Boatwright said, "Cara is a natural-born leader and a perfect fit for the market manager role. I am excited to integrate her into the mix of our strong management team. Historically, Cara has been our biggest recruiter and responsible for persuading eight great agents to join our team, and her recruits produced over $62M in sales in 2013. She is excited to teach others the skills she has acquired over the last 14 years in our industry, and to motivate her team to achieve their full potential."
Keenan concluded, "Realty Austin customers experience superior service from some of the most forward-thinking, philanthropic, professional, and productive real estate professionals in the area.
