Finding My Way Home
New Beginnings Require Shedding the Chains of the Past
It is time to get REAL. One day we wake up and realize, if it is going to happen, I am the one who has to do it. What did YOU want to be when you grew up? I wanted to be in Real Estate, although I didn’t know that is what it is called when I was little. When I was little, I just drew pictures of houses, and floor plans, and designed homes to house all of my kids, my friends and my loot. For no apparent reason, instead of a degree in Architecture, or something design-related, I got a degree in Chemistry. CHEMISTRY. I have absolutely no idea why other than I liked my Chemistry teacher in High School. That is still the only reason I can think of! And I HATE Chemistry!!!
But I digress.
I shoulda woulda coulda done what I was born to do, but I didn’t. I didn’t follow my heart then, but I can sure as heck follow it now. And I am finally old enough to know that it is better to be a rookie real estate agent climbing a really steep learning curve than to be a seasoned project manager managing projects that make me want to crawl back into bed and sleep for a week.
So here I am, diving into the deep end, and I think I might take a few friends and friends-to-be into the deep end with me. I hope you’re ready because I am.

Hi! My name is Alison Shuman and I am a licensed Texas REALTOR® with Coldwell Banker United, REALTORS®. I live, work and play in Northwest Austin. I spent years as a technical project manager. Then, to quote one of my favorite movies, I realized it was time to get busy living, or get busy dying. Join me on my journey to becoming a Real Estate Pro. Just maybe you'll find something that helps you find your own way HOME.



I like your Website, with one exception. I don’t like things that move on the screen – the photos at the top of your home page, for example. I could tolerate them better if they didn’t change so quickly. I know, it is the latest trendy thing – even the Wall Street Journal does it, and I’ve chided them for it. I see a photo, start to study it and read the caption and – poof – it’s gone.
Anyway, the rest is very good. You’ve packed in useful information and smart buyers should realize you’ve done your homework and should be someone helpful to deal with. !Que buena suerte!
