“Relocating can be quite stressful and Anna Katrina helped me a lot in making the process of my Austin relocation quite simple. She takes responsibility and delivers with utmost commitment.”
— Sandeep P., Applied Materials. Relocated from India

“I recently moved to Austin to take a new position, after being away for about 15 years. How the city has changed! My new employer tasked Anna Katrina with helping me get to know the city and find a place to live. What a wonderful experience! They simply could not have chosen a better person. Anna Katrina knows this city like the back of her hand, and showed me all of the wonderful aspects of the city that she knew I would like. Many of these places I would never find, or it would take years to discover. She also worked with a realtor, sacrificing her own schedule at times, to make sure I quickly found a home that met my budget and standards. She is tremendously pleasant and flexible, and I feel as though I have a new kindred spirit here in Austin. I cannot overstate the value of her services or her commitment to her clients. Thank you so much Anna Katrina!”
— Eric L., Apple. Relocated from Houston, Texas
