About
Gaby has been involved in Austin's real estate since 2002 with the purchase of her first home and first renovation. Since then, Gaby has bought and sold many properties (for herself and for her clients). Through her personal transactions alone, Gaby has experienced more than your average professional agent. She has invested in Single Family home rentals, condos, short-term rentals (Airbnb), renovated homes, flipped properties, owner-financed properties, invested through Self Directed IRA - nothing frightens her in the real estate investment world.
Prior to joining her husband to create The Proctor Team, Gaby had a very successful career at one of the biggest local media stations in Austin. Starting as a part-time promotions support staff, she made her way up to Promotions Director before taking the leap over to the sales team. Once there, Gaby made quick connections and, through pure hard work and dedication to her clients, she built a very strong clientele and became the Top Producing Account Executive within her 2nd year. That is a position that Gaby not only never gave up, but dominated for the next 6 years as she became one of the most well-known, loved, and respected sales reps in the industry.
Once she felt she had peaked in that business, and watched her husband shine in the other industry she has such a passion for, she jumped over to Realty Austin and helped The Proctor Team achieve the Diamond Club ($10+ Million producers) with Realty Austin every year since she joined.
Gaby strives to make herself available to her clients, even as a busy mom of 3. Whether you are new to real estate or an experienced buyer or seller, Gaby is committed to serving you with the highest levels of integrity, ethics, and quality of service. Outside of Real Estate, Gaby is involved in many philanthropic projects, including Habitat for Humanity & Community First Village.
