How long have you lived in Austin?  Chris for 13 years and Claudia for almost 8.

What is your profession?  Chris is Chief of Staff for the VP/GM of Consumer Sales at Dell, and Claudia is a Procurement professional also working at Dell.

Do you have any pets?  We do!! Pisco and Boomer.  Boomer is a miniature schnauzer and Pisco a Welsh Springer Spaniel.

What circumstances led to your search for a new home?  We just need more space!!  We lived and owned at 360 and, now at Bridges, and I think even though we both love living downtown, we are ready for our own place with a private garden for our pooches!

What attracted you to this community over other options you were considering?  PSW has a great reputation in town, and this specific project had most of the things we were seeking: new with a great location, a yard for the dogs and enough space to start a little garden.

What feature about the home is most exciting to you?  Definitely that is solar.  Fantastic way to help the environment and have low electricity bills!

What do you most look forward to experiencing in your new home after you get settled in?  Our yard!!!
