BIOGRAPHY

Born in New Orleans and raised in Austin, Barbara knows what it means to value where you live and to love your community. She was part of the first graduating class at St. Andrew’s Episcopal Upper School in Austin and became the first student to return to the Upper School to teach English after her college years spent in the Northeast. Her love of teaching drew her to a Masters Degree in Communication Studies at the University of Texas at Austin where she developed an academic coaching business that served dozens of families in the Central and West Austin area. Helping families navigate the challenges of adolescence came naturally to her as she is not only a perceptive listener, but she also intuitively understands others’ needs while they move through life’s big transitions.

Once she married a local custom home builder, helping clients design and build their dream home alongside her husband became a passion, and one not unlike her academic coaching career. She is thrilled to be able to now marry both her family coaching background with her love of real estate as an agent in the central Austin core. She knows that a good real estate agent can anticipate clients’ needs and offer thoughtful support to deliver above and beyond each client’s expectations.

Barbara’s knowledge of home building, the world of construction, and the Austin market give her a leading edge. You will find a down-to-earth, hard working and professional agent in Barbara, who thrives on personal connections and tasks completed with integrity and precision. She takes her role seriously but never lacks a genuine smile and a true gut laugh.

Testimonials

  • I could not fathom using any other broker! Barbara went way over, above, and beyond what was required to get my home sold. She took all the stress out of the transaction and made it simple and easy. Barbara’s keen eye for staging and extensive marketing knowledge was paramount in my home selling well above list price.

  • From day one, Barbara was trustworthy and a joy to work with. Throughout the transaction, she made sure all parties in the real estate transaction were all on the same page throughout ever single stage of the process which limited chaos and provided our family peace of mind. It is a pleasure to work with her.

  • Barbara Levesque is an incredible realtor–professional, patient, knowledgeable, honest, and caring. She walked me through every stage of the process, helping me discern my priorities and find the best house for me. As a first-time home buyer, I felt assured that I was in good hands with Barbara. I had also enlisted the help of my parents, who have bought and sold multiple homes in their many years, and they both were so impressed with Barbara’s ability to deal with all of us that they said they have never worked with a better realtor. Beyond an extensive knowledge of the Austin real estate market, Barbara brings a keen designer’s eye to help you see a home’s potential and numerous connections to contractors to help answer any questions. I unreservedly and whole-heartily recommend Barbara Levesque to be your realtor!
