BIOGRAPHY

Sara Kogut is a Dallas, Texas native who moved to Austin, after studying in Israel and traveling abroad to over 10 different countries, to attend St. Edwards University, where she graduated Cum Laude with degrees in both entrepreneurship and marketing. Sara began her post-grad career as a University of Texas certified paralegal specializing in intellectual property at Conley Rose law firm. This experience and her innate attention to detail are how she became skilled at preparing and reading through incredibly complex legal documents – suffice to say, she is well prepared to master the nuances of real estate contracts.

Sara loves working with people to uncover exactly what their real estate needs are and helping them find it. She holds a Real Estate Negotiation Expert certification and truly understands how to position and drive a deal to a successful outcome for her clients. Her contagious enthusiasm, strong legal background, expertise of the Austin market, and unparalleled negotiation skills make Sara a valuable and trustworthy asset to anyone during their next real estate adventure!

During her free time, Sara enjoys visiting her family in Austin. It turns out, the Kogut family has been laying roots in Austin for the past 100 years! You can also find her traveling the world, sewing together DIY projects, working out, cruising around on her bicycle, listening to live music, eating her way through as many new restaurants as possible, or at Zilker park with her cute puppy Zeppelin.

It is my pleasure to give a review of my experience with my realtor Sara Kogut. Sara was recommended to me through a mutual friend. I was a first time home buyer who decided during this COVID pandemic to buy a house. The competition was very tough, however I felt that we were doing all the right things to succeed. Sara has local knowledge of the housing market, is extremely responsive to your needs as a client and will make herself available to you (which is extremely important in this competitive housing market where timing is everything). What really impressed me was her skills in navigating the contracts and recommending certain plans of actions. Sara also has a good network of colleagues from inspectors who are very responsive to contractors that give solid quotes. After finding the perfect home and executing the contract I was able to close on my house in 30 days because of her diligence!! All this, her likable personality, her easy going demeanor and her expertise are why I would highly recommend Sara to anyone looking for a realtor who works for you!

“I was skeptical about the value a real estate agent would add to the home buying experience in Austin in today’s Information Age. And as such was not inclined to engage a broker exclusively. My wife and I met Sara as visitors to an open house and were left impressed with her knowledge of the various neighborhoods and the insightful questions she asked even as it became clear the home she represented at the time was not right for us.

After several weeks of wasted time scouring real estate websites and trying to understand Austin public school zoning regulations, we decided to reconnect with Sara and challenged her to impress us. Before ever visiting a property, she did so immediately in how she knew the right questions to ask to narrow down our search and save us time. After just a few days, she came back with a short list of recommended homes to tour. The very first house she recommended was not even publicly available and thus invisible to the typical real estate apps. Sure enough, we fell in love with the house and a few days later decided to make an offer after viewing a few more homes just to be certain.

Sara again deftly handled the buying process for us, guiding us through offer negotiations, helping us to navigate financing options and ultimately saved us money while keeping her eye on winning us the house we desired.
I would recommend Sara without reservation for both first time buyers in Austin who don’t know where to begin, or experienced buyers looking to gain an edge in a competitive market.”

“Sara is a wonderful realtor. She successfully helped me sell my home in Texas, while I was living in another state. Sara was in constant communication and always provided me with all of the information I needed to make informed decisions. It could have been really stressful to take care of the sale from out-of-state, but Sara took the initiative to keep the house looking good, taking care of the yard, hiring third parties when needed, communicating with neighbors, and going out of her way to do all the things I would have had to otherwise figure out how to do remotely. Sara is fantastic in working with people, which is such an invaluable skill in real estate. I cannot recommend her enough.”
– Michelle Brooks

"I absolutely loved working with Sara!!! I am not the easiest home buyer out there, but my quirks didn't bother Sara at all. I met Sara at an open house. I reached out to her when my previous realtor was on vacation and couldn't show me homes. Getting in touch with Sara turned out to be a great decision. Sara always was very prepared when we looked at homes. She was very helpful in helping me make offers. Sara explained every step of the process and made sure I understood what I was doing before making any offers. I HIGHLY recommend Sara. In the future I will reach out to Sara when I need to buy or sell a property." - Annette

“Working with Sara in finding my new place was a great experience from start to finish. Sara’s market knowledge is unparalleled – after an initial market overview Sara’s guidance led Me to a home in a neighborhood I wasn’t originally considering, and now I could not imagine living anywhere else! Sara found a way to negotiate concessions I didn’t even know were available, and everyone in the process was happy with the way the transaction was handled. I would (and have) recommend Sara to add value to anybody with a real estate related decision to be made. Sara is honest, professional, courteous, hard working, extremely diligent and enthusiastically passionate about what she does for her clients.”
