Why Ranch at Brushy Creek buyers work with me
I've lived in Northwest Austin since 1976, and much of my recent business has been along the Parmer and 183 corridors as buyers follow the jobs north. On tours I'll point out what the listing photos don't show. Buyers moving in like Ranch at Brushy Creek for its pools, community center and the Brushy Creek Regional Trail, with Parmer and the Apple campus close.
