Robin Hammond

Realtor®, GRI, ABoR, NAR, TAR, TREC, ICREA, Who's Who in Luxury Real Estate

In 1998, after 17 years in a family-owned Austin construction company and 12 years as sales and marketing director for a major hotel chain, becoming a realtor made perfect sense. Robin arrived "home" in Austin in 1971 and watched the city grow from an oil, gas, and cattle dependent community to the culturally rich and tech saavy city we know today. "Having experienced Austin first-hand, then and now, gives me an edge on the competition because I really do understand the Austin market."

From 1999-2004 Robin lived and worked part-time in London. There she gained invaluable experience in the international real estate market by regularly attending premier property auctions, networking with key area agents, and previewing lots and lots of properties. Moving to the UK area? Ask Robin, she can help. With a continuing interest in the UK market, Robin is the only US designated Realtor for one of the first online real estate search databases serving the UK and Ireland.

Robin enjoys spending time with family, playing with her energetic labrador, listening to live music, and is a long-time volunteer for the SXSW music and film festival. She also likes to boast at age 50 she participated in and completed her first triathlon!

So when next you find you're in the market to buy or sell a home, give Robin a call. She prides herself on personalized service, a high degree of professionalism, and results oriented success. "And we'll have fun, too!"
