Today we’d like to introduce you to Sarah Spacek.
Hi Sarah, it’s an honor to have you on the platform. Thanks for taking the time to share your story with us – to start maybe you can share some of your backstory with our readers?
Born and raised in Edinburgh, Scotland. Moved to London when I was 21 to study Acting at Rose Bruford School of Speech and Drama (same place as Gary Oldman attended). Ended up, very randomly, in the world of Shopping TV and started my TV Hosting career on a small network called Rocks TV where I sold Gemstones and Jewelry. Worked my way up the networks and was fortunate enough to transfer from TJC London to the sister network, Shop LC, here in Austin. That was in 2012. After seven years in Austin, I decided I needed a new challenge and wanted to work for myself so I transitioned out of TV into the world of Real Estate, which is what I’m doing today.
I’m sure you wouldn’t say it’s been obstacle free, but so far would you say the journey have been a fairly smooth road?
As an Actor/TV Host in London, or anywhere in fact, it’s an extremely cutthroat business and you have to have the determination of a bull and skin like a rhino to survive. I was very lucky I got my break in TV, as I had the gift of being a chatterbox and had a background in sales, but it took several years to get that break. Then once you have that job, you have to keep on top of your knowledge and skills to continue in that role…there are thousands of people that wanted the job I had. Moving into real estate was me starting from the ground up all over again, in an industry that was foreign to me, so there were definitely doubts and stressful moments along the way. Can I mention COVID?? Yeah, right when I started my new career 🙂 However, I was able to be successful right off the bat even with all the demands of an uncertain world.
Great, so let’s talk business. Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?
I’m a Real Estate Consultant with Spyglass Realty. I have my SRS (Sellers Representative Specialist) and ABR (Accredited Buyers Representative) designations so I work with both Buyers and Sellers. As I have a great understanding of both sides and the different ins and outs, I find that really helps me communicate with them and also with other agents. I’m also a Pricing Strategy Advisor which helps in this crazy market.
I love being with Spyglass for many reasons. We’re a great group of professionals providing our clients with an exceptional customer service experience in their Austin real estate transactions through knowledgeable sales associates, unique technical services, and cutting-edge tools. We are the total package in Austin.
We have amazing technology and our marketing is superb. Our Broker, Ryan Rodenbeck, is a tech nerd and likes to say we’re a marketing company that just so happens to specialize in Real Estate! Our branding stands out, much like our agents. Spyglass only takes on seasoned agents so you know you’re getting top agents from the get go.
Spyglass gives me the support to grow my business and achieve my goals. I love that all the agents here support and encourage each other to be our best selves.
Working with me is fun and I like to try and make the buying/selling process as stress-free as possible. I’m always on hand to provide counseling, a shoulder to cry on or punch, and I’ll provide margaritas when needed. I love helping my clients fulfill their dreams and I’m with them every step of the way before, during and after.
