Dallas, TX
The Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex is the perfect blend of a family friendly lifestyle with great schools, wholesome activities, and diverse experiences combined with a high profile business landscape in our many business centers and downtown areas with shopping dining and a vibrant nightlife. As a lifetime resident, my favorite outing with new comers to the area is a 2-day tour, focusing one day in Dallas county and the other in Tarrant county, allowing each family the opportunity to experience a diverse range of neighborhoods so that they can start to identify with the area they will ultimately call home!
Michelle Rawls
Michelle, a lifetime resident of Dallas/Fort Worth, embodies the culture of Texas with her warm character, mixed with bold, inspiring determination, and an innate business savvy that makes her one of the most sought after real estate consultants in the area. After several decades in corporate executive and strategic roles with the likes of Deloitte, American Airlines, and Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway, Michelle made the decision to pursue her own vision, to build a team of consummate real estate professionals, driven to serve the needs of their clients, in all disciplines, whether residential, commercial, investment, raw land or development. Under Michelle’s leadership, this multi-faceted real estate services concept became a reality in 2016 with the launch of GeoDwell Real Estate Services. Their unique team of agent specialists takes pride in exceeding expectations with emphasis on delivering impeccable service with utmost integrity.

GeoDwell’s international focus is centered on the country of Italy, as the exclusive United States marketing agent for an Italian network of brokers. Through this network, GeoDwell spans the ocean to bring fascinating Italian property offerings to U.S. buyers. More than a Realtor: Michelle and her husband Dave’s love of all things Italian, has culminated in a delightful partnership with a beautiful Italian family and creators of an authentic Italian restaurant in Colleyville, called LOVERIA CAFFE’ – A TASTE OF ITALY. Michelle loves to enjoy spectacular sunsets near her 2nd home in Scottsdale, AZ with her children and grandchildren; practicing yoga; and doting on her two furr-babies, Yorkshire Terrier’s named Davinci and Coco Chanel.

Austin, Texas
Austin, Texas, and the surrounding area continues to be one of the fastest growing metropolitan areas in the nation. Many factors play into this, including its temperate climate (ok, temperatures can go over 100 °, A/C can help with that), six universities within 30 miles, and the fact that it continues to be on Forbes Top 10 List of The Best Places for Business and Careers are just a few. “Silicon Hills”, “Live Music Capital of the World” and “Keep Austin Weird” mottos add to the cities appeal. Austin continues to be the location of choice for corporate expansions and headquarter moves due to the appeal of no state income tax along with Texas being a “right to work” state. Add to this list the string of Highland Lakes (Lady Bird, Travis, Buchanan, Inks, Marble Falls) that are within an hour drive from many parts of the city as well as a central location off the IH-35 corridor between San Antonio (1 ½ hour drive) and Dallas (2 ½ hour drive), and Houston off to the east off Hwy 290. Check it out for yourself!
Houston, TX
There are so many great suburbs of Houston and I can help you no matter what part of town you need to be in. But if you are looking for something truly special, there's no place better than The Woodlands! This amazing community is just north of Houston and is completely immersed in nature...so much so that no stores are visible from the main roadways. There are TONS of great activities offered such as golf, ropes courses, and kayaking. Enjoy shopping and dining along the Waterway or at the outdoor Shops at Market Place. There is a home for everyone with prices ranging from the low $100's all the way up to over $5MM. Schools are top notch. Taxes are super low. And there are practically no HOA dues (some gated areas have dues and the townhomes have a monthly maintenance fee).

AUSTIN Is Live Music Capital of the World. The next Silicon Valley. The capital of Texas. Home of the University of Texas. Austin, with a population of around 1 million, possesses many identities. The one thing that brings all of those identities under one roof is the much-praised quality of life in Austin. But don’t take our word for it. In 2020, U.S. News & World Report named Austin the best place to live in the country. For several decades, tech has been a big driver of the city’s economic engine, earning Austin the nickname Silicon Hills. Major tech employers in Austin include Amazon, AMD, Apple, Facebook, Google, and IBM. Amazon happens to own Austin-based Whole Foods Market, the chain of natural and organic grocery stores; and a major employer-to-be is Tesla. Hundreds of startups also contribute to Austin’s thriving economy, making Austin a top city for startups and entrepreneurs. Now, where do people in Austin live when they’re not jamming out to music, chowing down on scrumptious food, or toiling away at their jobs? Austin offers a generous mix of housing types. There are apartment towers, apartment complexes, condo high-rises, low-rise condo developments, modern homes, vintage homes and more. Austin’s neighborhoods are as diverse as the housing types. No matter where you live in Austin, you’re bound to find your groove.

What are you looking for in your real estate team? Is it experience? Our agents have decades of LOCAL experience in the Greater Houston Area and thousands of transactions. Last year we ranked #113 out of almost 37,000 Houston agents. A trusted advisor? Through our experience we have developed strategies and plans of action that assure top dollar and quickest sale if you’re selling; and success in even multiple offer situations if you’re buying. But experience alone is not enough. We are continually taking classes to improve our skills. Through our training we have earned designations such as RENE – Real Estate Negotiating Expert, CLHMS – Certified Luxury Home Marketing Specialist and others. Someone who cares about you? Most of our business is by referral. Because of that, we do not view the closing table as the end. Instead, we view it as the “opening table”; it is the beginning of a life-long friendship. And, in truth, that starts before the closing. How you ask? Well, here’s just a few of the things we have done for clients: baby sat dogs to facilitate showings, helped prepare house for listing, parked moving trucks in our driveway, watched over house while client was away. Do we sound like a real estate team you’d like to work with? We would love the opportunity to introduce ourselves and our services. So, no matter if you’re looking to rent or purchasing a multi-million dollar home, you’ll get the same professional and personal service. We look forward to hearing from you today!

Lubbock is one of the best communities on the country for business owners. West Texas is strangely easy to live in with small commutes and lively communities. There’s a vibrant 50,000+ student population that keeps Lubbock on its toes and is a major farming region with family values and a welcoming attitude towards new residents.
