Terri Savage
Terri is more than a valued client advisor at Austin Real Estate Partners - she was once a client! She met the McKennas in 2005 and was so impressed with the highly personal way they did business that she decided to join the team as an agent. “They were unlike any Realtors I had ever met,” she says. “I was not just a transaction to them. They really cared and it showed in their actions.” Terri now considers herself an extension of the company, and is dedicated to helping others have a positive real estate experience, caring deeply for her clients and the community. She is active in her church and has volunteered at local schools, a children’s camp, retirement center and women’s crisis center. Terri also has an associate’s degree in business. She and her husband live in southwest Austin with their daughter.
