To our Team, Partners, and Clients,
Most importantly, thank you. Thank you to the nurses, doctors, staff, and providers who put their own health at risk to protect ours. Thank you to the clerks, checkers, stockers, and baggers who work tirelessly to keep our grocery stores and pharmacies open. Thank you to the kitchen teams, servers, hosts, dishwashers, bartenders, and baristas who go above and beyond to continue to serve. Thank you to the teams from FedEx, UPS, USPS, DHL, DoorDash, Postmates, Favor, and many more, who keep us connected from a distance. Thank you to the Uber, Lyft, taxi, and bus drivers who transport us when we need it most. Thank you to the men and women in uniform who serve and protect us. Thank you to the sanitation facilities and janitorial teams who fight to keep us healthy. And thank you to Team Local Life who have stepped up to continue to support our clients in a time where being local takes on new meaning.
With gratitude for all those mentioned above, we have made the decision to close our physical offices to do our part in preventing the spread of the virus. However, the Local Life team remains more available than ever. We move forward with the knowledge that where we call home and how we define local shapes how we respond in a crisis. Local Life will continue to sell homes, design spaces, and support our communities. We will still offer open houses while doing our part to maintain a safe and clean environment for all our guests. The Local Life team is also ready, willing, and able to accommodate private showings at any time, for any property. We are available by email, phone, FaceTime, Zoom, Hangouts – whatever it takes – to provide the service, guidance, and encouragement you deserve.
At Local Life we continue to believe in the power of community, perseverance, and #locallife.
Stay safe, and in the wise words of Martin Luther King Jr., “never lose infinite hope.”

Justin is considered the “New Kid on the Block” in the Waco Market. He told me he would sell my home within 30 days and was somewhat flexible on the terms of the listing agreement when other Realtors would not budge. House sold within 30 days and I’m sure Justin has just begun to shine! Continue Reading
