Lissa has been helping clients buy and sell their homes for over ten years. Before embarking on her real estate career, she owned a gift and monogramming boutique in Central Austin, where her love for her community and its needs sprouted her passion for real estate.
Helping families navigate the real estate market is a career she values and treasures. Lissa found a home at Gottesman Residential Real Estate because of our shared commitment to nurturing client relationships, innovative marketing, and exceptional customer service.
Born and raised in Austin, Lisa's extensive knowledge of the city's rich culture, diverse architecture, and charming character of each of the unique neighborhoods throughout the city truly sets her apart.
