Shelly Hemingson | Native Austin REALTOR® | Luxury Listing Specialist
Some agents know Austin. Shelly grew up here.
Shelly was raised in Allandale, went to McCallum High School, and graduated from The University of Texas. Today she lives in Ridgelea, a small pocket neighborhood along Shoal Creek in the heart of Austin. She has watched Central Austin grow and change for decades, and that kind of perspective is hard to come by.
Neighborhoods. History. Strategy.
Shelly specializes in Central Austin, including Rosedale, Allandale, Tarrytown, Hyde Park, Bryker Woods, Brentwood, Crestview, Ridgelea, and Clarksville. She knows what makes each street different: the architecture, the school boundaries, the micro-market pricing, and the shortcut that gets you around MoPac at 5pm.
Shelly is a luxury listing specialist and a consistent Million Dollar Club producer, with months topping $5 million in closed sales. She brings that same level of strategy to every price point. Her designations include:
-
CLHMS: Certified Luxury Home Marketing Specialist
-
GRI: Graduate of the REALTOR® Institute
-
SRS: Seller Representative Specialist
-
ABR: Accredited Buyer Representative
A Different Kind of Background
Before real estate, Shelly spent 29 years as a Southwest Airlines flight attendant. She's responsive and steady, and she works alongside her clients as a true partner. Every decision is made together.
Rooted in Austin
Shelly is a past board president of Preservation Austin. While on the board, she helped with the annual historic homes tour and led the organization's rebrand. She has also volunteered with Foundation Communities, People's Community Clinic, Habitat for Humanity, Livestrong, St. David's, Ronald McDonald House, and local school boards and PTAs.
When she's off the clock, you'll find her paddleboarding on Lady Bird Lake, walking her dogs on the Shoal Creek Trail, or at the pottery wheel. She and her husband Todd have two college-age kids (Go Bobcats! Go Pirates!) and are members of First Austin Church.
