ABOUT DIANA

I was born and raised in South Africa and have lived and traveled extensively in Europe and Great Britain. Prior to settling in Texas, I worked for "Up With People" and made friends from many countries. In Austin I've been involved with Lake Travis Education Foundation, Lake Travis Youth Association, American Cancer Society and other charitable groups.

I've been a resident of Austin since 1989 and raised my family in the Lake Travis area. I've seen Austin "bloom and grow" while working closely with some of the companies that have made it happen including Dell, Freescale Semiconductor and others.

We can partner together to make your dream come true.

"The timing of our move to the Austin area was very short due to the start of the upcoming school year. We had just over 6 weeks to decide if we were going to move and if so, where would we relocate. During our very first phone conversation (long distance from CA to TX) to plan a trip into the area, we greatly appreciated Diana’s ability to listen carefully, to ask probing questions, and to provide feedback. During our first weekend of time together, we were able to narrow the scope of the search to just a few neighborhoods. Diana went out of her way to provide a level of service that was truly exceptional. She provided us contacts with local school staff (to learn more about the classroom culture); she set up meetings with builders to discuss home plans; and she offered countless insights into the Austin area. Throughout the process she was always available and extremely responsive. she even offered suggestions on tile and granite patterns - when number of choices started to be over whelming! :-)

We were very fortunate to have the opportunity to work with Diana in the purchase of our home. We consider her a friend of the family and can highly recommend her realtor services!"

"Diana Thomas is a wonderfully calm, informed presence during the emotional time of selling one home and buying another. I have bought six homes and sold five in the past 28 years. Each time I was represented by good, hard-working real estate agents. Diana stands out in the group because she went of out of her way to make both transactions go smoothly for me during a very busy time in my career. I don't have the time to make the calls to get things fixed, get a mover, get a painter, find a place to auction my furniture or meet with various contractors to get bids. Diana did this for me. If I needed something done, Diana did it. The amount of time that she spent on me was amazing. I've never seen such cheerful dedication.

I also appreciated that Diana stood back when it was time for me to make the big decisions concerning acceptable asking and buying prices for my homes. She gave me the data and let me make the informed decision.

Diana stays focused on her client's needs. When we first met, she realized that another agent in her office used to live down my street. She asked the other agent to team up with her to help sell my house. She knew that this agent's knowledge about my neighborhood could facilitate the sale.

Originally, I considered using a discount broker. I'm so glad I went with Diana Thomas instead. If you have a busy life and don't have the time to take care of all the myriads of odds and ends that come up during the selling and buying of a house, consider Diana. It's important to have someone like Diana who will do what ever it takes to make the transaction happen. Getting a buyer or finding a house is only part of the process. Diana is excellent at sealing the deal."
