Luisa Mauro
Owner / Broker 512 633 8220
Luisa Mauro's Italian family instilled in her the belief that owning property is the ultimate investment.
Memories of her Sicilian grandparents growing produce on their own land, coupled with a keen eye for quality real estate, motivated Luisa to obtain her real estate license in 2002. Since becoming a broker in 2006, she and her family have brought that sense of investment pride to the real estate community, buying and selling rental properties, purchasing a commercial office building and providing property management for their real estate.
Since entering the world of real estate, Luisa has become deeply involved in the industry, earning her Certified Negotiation Expert designation, making her one of the few negotiation agents recognized by the National Association of Realtors. She was also recently appointed to the Texas Association of Realtor's Infrastructure and Utilities Task Force which examines current transportation needs and funding issues related to urban growth. She is also a member of the Institute for Luxury Home Marketing and a Wall Street Journal recommended Luxury Agent. Her passion does not stop with real estate, but also extends to helping animals by volunteering with Austin Pets Alive to make Austin a "no kill" city.
In addition to her career, Luisa has a strong commitment to community involvement, and is an active member of numerous local professional organizations. She is currently on the board of the Austin Sports Commission and volunteers for the Austin Tourism Council. She is a member of both the South Austin Business Council, as well as the Greater Austin Chamber of Commerce (selected as one of 50 CEOs for their new program, Austin 50). A graduate of the University of Texas Business School with a BBA in Marketing, Luisa is an active participant in the UT Business School alumni organization, and mentors students at the University of Texas.
With a family-owned business based in Austin, Texas, Luisa is deeply committed to the restaurant community. She is on the board of the Texas Restaurant Association, is a member of La Chaine des Rotisseurs and in 2005 was the President of the Greater Austin Restaurant Association.
In her free time, you’ll find Luisa either training or traveling. An avid marathon competitor, Luisa has completed eleven marathons all over the country and participated in running circuits through Machu Picchu and Patagonia in South America. When she’s not pounding the pavement, she travels to Italy to spend time with her family. Her travels always serve as a reminder that although there’s no place like home, there is always the potential to find beauty in a second home.
