THE DISTINCTION
ASHLEY DARNELL GLOBAL REAL ESTATE ADVISOR
Simply put: “Do what you say you’re going to do.” It is that timeless mantra that has been the foundation to Ashley Darnell’s success in both business and in life. Ashley’s commitment to excellence, integrity and personal service has earned her the trust and respect of her clients and colleagues. Perhaps it is that commitment that keeps Ashley’s clients coming back time and time again. Whether you are buying or selling a home, Ashley has the extensive market knowledge, negotiation skills, eye for detail, and resources needed to make your experience a positive and rewarding one. From waterfront and golf course communities to downtown and urban living, Ashley specializes in the appealing lifestyle that Austin has to offer. As a fifth generation Austinite and proud UT graduate (Hook Em), Ashley Darnell has always called Austin home. She appreciates the classic treasures of old Austin and embraces the newfound splendors of new Austin. As a licensed realtor since 2006, Ashley began her real estate journey as a marketing guru for a high-end real estate firm. While in this position, she grew restless of being in a behind-the-scenes role and was ready for her selling debut. It was that desire to work on the sales side of real estate that landed her on the doorsteps of a top producing real estate firm and the reason Ashley has enjoyed a successful career as a Multi-Million Dollar Producer each year.

Client Testimonials
Ashley Darnell was recommended by a friend with the premise that we didn’t want to use a realtor we knew, business and pleasure rarely mix. Well Ashley, somehow, occupies that space between, probably because her strongest suit is open communication with her client. We wanted an almost unreasonable price in a very specific location and Ashley gracefully made it happen.
CHRIS & NEGEEN MOSLEY // CHERRY CREEK We enjoyed working with Ashley again very much. She does a great job in working within your budget and schedule and provides excellent service to her clients. This is the third time I have used her for a home purchase, so that says a lot about how good she is at what she does. She is extremely professional and I will highly recommend her to my friends. I give her a 10/10!
CARL DOBBS // LAKEWAY Ashley was just wonderful - an excellent Realtor! I particularly appreciated how patient Ashley was with me as I took my time to make decisions. I never felt pressured, not even once. I loved that Ashley stood by my side the entire time, especially during negotiations, and would not back down until she got the HVAC replaced by the seller. I felt updated throughout the whole process, and appreciated that Ashley was very communicative. Always texting and emailing me to keep me posted. Great job, Ashley!
