FOUR SEASONS #601

presented by KUMARA WILCOXON Kumara Wilcoxon leads and influences the Austin residential real estate market. As one of Austin’s top Luxury Real Estate Agents, Kumara consistently ranks among Austin’s select multi-million dollar producers. As number one producer company wide for Kuper Sotheby’s three consecutive years in a row, Kumara sold over $52M in 2015, $65M in 2016 and $95M in 2017. Honored by Austin Business Journal as a top producer and distinguished as a member of Austin’s Elite 25, her connections to the top 1% of the industry allows her the privilege of access to the best properties, many of which are never listed in the highly competitive Austin luxury market.

Relationships form the basis for Kumara’s success. Her first priority is always open, honest communication with her clients. Finding the right property, or selling a home always has its rewards, but for Kumara, a life long relationship with a client brings her genuine personal satisfaction.
