Austin TX Real Estate - Hill Country Austin Lakeway Homes for Sale: Official Announcement of Joining RE/MAX Austin Skyline in Austin, TX

Official Announcement of Joining RE/MAX Austin Skyline in Austin, TX

I've always liked the saying that being second is just being first in a long line of losers.  Not that I'm saying I'm a loser, or that anyone else here in Texas is a loser, but for almost 3 years, I always saw the number 1 on my main page, and for the past week, all I see are 2's...

I changed my profile over to Austin on Monday, though I didn't officially join an Austin brokerage until yesterday.

I've gotten several comments about the change, most sarcastic of course, saying they're glad they don't have to see my face everyday anymore (from the Dallas people).  A couple of Austin people noticed the change, but it wasn't as apparent there as the gaps are much greater.

Anyway, I'm officially announcing that I'm now a REALTOR® with RE/MAX Austin Skyline in Austin, TX.

I can fully understand not liking the 2.  But now you have some healthy competition to get you motivated to be back at #1 :)

JiMaria, We'll have to see about that... Thanks for the encouragement!

Tricia, Not quite.  The house is still not ready, so still in Dallas right now, but have been going back and forth too much... I was just there for the past couple of days doing the switch over and getting my MLS access.

Hi Donna,

that isn't nice of those Dallas agents.  As long as your still with us on AR that is just as good as you being in Dallas.  Take care.

David, Thanks!

Hi Donna... Congrats on the move!  There's no pleasing some folks because I have seen my share of sarcasm too since moving into your seat on the top left of the Dallas page!

Yep, everyone is correct it won't take you long to take the #1 position in Austin.

Hi Donna... it's OK, the sarcasm has all been meant in good fun (I hope)!  :)

Sherry, thanks so much, and it was great meeting you at the office.

Teresa, the #1 spot was already overtaken, and there is no change of me catching up, but that's ok.  I still have substance.

Steve, Good!

I have no idea why the font is so large... wonder what happened...
