Inaky Strick, Broker Associate BILINGUAL IN SPANISH AND ENGLISH
Inaky Strick is a Broker Associate with Kuper Sotheby’s International Realty serving New Braunfels, Boerne, San Antonio, Austin, and surrounding areas. Inaky began with a real estate career in The Woodlands at Martha Turner Sotheby’s International Realty, Houston’s number one luxury real estate company with a global presence. During his time in the Houston area, Inaky represented sellers and buyers, as well as new construction luxury builders and developers. Inaky then moved to the Caribbean, expanding his knowledge in off-shore real estate developments, as the Business Development Manager for Mahogany Bay Village, the largest and first luxury-branded resort in the country of Belize. In addition to marketing and selling the resort units to prestigious clients, Inaky was the catalyst for the start of the business relationship between MBV and Gary Vaynerchuck, an American entrepreneur, four-time New York Times best-selling author, speaker, and CEO of VaynerMedia. Following his passion to master a variety of components that make up a real estate transaction, Inaky became the Director of Investor Relations for a private real estate investment firm. The firm focused on acquiring undervalued cash-flowing real estate assets. Inaky aided in raising capital of over $4MM in 6 months.
Inaky graduated from the McCoy College of Business at Texas State University. This was the beginning of his love affair with the rustic beauty of the Texas Hill country and contributed to his decision to make thriving New Braunfels his home. In his Amazon #1 best-selling book The One Thing That Changed Everything, Inaky says, “whatever it is you want to do in life, find those who are already successful in doing so and surround yourself with them.” An avid world traveler with a deep appreciation of diverse cultures, Inaky recognized that partnering with Kuper Sotheby’s International Realty allows him to support his variety of clients and specialties - luxury residential homes, unique development projects, and waterfront. To provide the highest quality experience to clients, Inaky also has a full-time licensed assistant, Melyn. Melyn graduated from Texas A&M University and was always surrounded by the real estate industry with her Dad in banking and Mom in real estate. She helps with marketing, transaction coordinating, keeping everything organized, and doing research to ensure a fast response to clients’ needs. Whether you need to sell your luxury condo in Austin, your ranch estate in the Hill Country, to locate and purchase a mid-century home in San Antonio, or you are ready to sell your charming historic home in New Braunfels, Inaky will share his expertise and provide his unparalleled customer service to accomplish your real estate goals. His contagious enthusiasm and love of people are evident in the world of real estate because his top priority is placing the needs of his clients first. His goal is to build life-long relationships with home buyers and home sellers - not just completing a one-time transaction.

My Story Every agent has a story to tell. Check out my video below to see more about what sets me apart as an agent. “Relationships are the most important thing, not only in business but in life. Whether that’s just friendship or a business relationship, to me, it’s very important to build a solid relationship with people because people help people.” - Inaky Strick
My Stats In 2020, our relationship with home evolved. While the average Realtor sells 2.8 homes per year, I am honored to have helped 52 families achieve their real estate goals in 2020. Although 2020 was such an unprecedented year, I was able to successfully negotiate for my sellers and keep their list-to-sales price at 98.6% and have helped save an average of $9,445 per buyer.

Exclusive Digital Marketing Outlets While we’ve always been able to quickly adapt to our changing world and industry, robust digital marketing has been the cornerstone of our strategy for years. 90% of home buyers begin searching for their home online, so it’s essential for Kuper Sotheby’s International Realty to have access to digital outlets to promote our listings. Our digital property advertising programs allow agents to place advertising and upgrade property listings on high profile websites at exclusive rates and engage local, national, and international consumers through effective content marketing and geo-targeted campaigns, whether it be through advertorials, social media marketing, or programmatic ads. We have longstanding partnerships with media outlets like CultureMap and The Business Journal, plus other custom programs that provide exposure for listings throughout the entire digital environment.
VIRTUAL REAL ESTATE SOLUTIONS
3D Property Tours Our 360 VR capture system renders a listing’s interiors as 3D models, which you can walk through and look around in an immersive virtual reality environment. These tours create a photorealistic experience of a property, while leveraging the 3D data to give viewers a sense of physical presence— creating the feeling of truly being in the space.
Immersive Listing Video Homebuyers are engaging with video in every element of their online experience—websites, social networks, and on their TVs. Research tells us that the longer someone is on a website, the more likely they are to inquire about a property. Video provides a truly immersive and engaging experience for the consumer unlike a photo ever could.
Virtual Staging With virtual home staging, we can inspire buyers and help them better imagine their future home, all while standing out from the monotony of the competition. In fact, 83% of buyer’s agents say staging made it easier for their client to visualize the property as their home.
Virtual Showings The demand for video and chat software has increased exponentially to ensure a potential buyer is able to effectively view and evaluate the home even if they can’t physically be there. Our agents are skilled in the top platforms that can execute virtual showings for all of our clients.
Online Open House Events Through platforms like Facebook Live, Instagram Live, and Zoom, we can bring our influential social networks right into our listing virtually. Additionally, these events can be promoted to other Realtors, ensuring the property is getting the exposure it deserves.
Engaging E-Marketing “E-blast” is another word to describe a digital flyer that is sent out online to targeted e-mail addresses in order to advertise your new listing. E-blasts allow us to advertise your property to a large number of qualified agents and potential buyers, all while highlighting things like video, virtual tours, and professional photography in a beautiful and compelling way.
Media Partnerships & Targeted Advertising Sotheby’s International Realty has exclusive advertising partnerships with the most significant media companies and real estate-focused websites in the world.

Branding & Identity Kuper Creative will craft an engaging brand strategy, messaging, and product positioning utilizing input from the developer and the sales team and incorporating their insights on target buyer demographics. NAMING & BRAND IDENTITY Exploration of various names and logo design directions, a final logomark in color and B&W formats that will work across multiple platforms will be provided. GRAPHIC GUIDELINES Development of easy to follow design details on logo application, usages, color palettes, supporting typefaces and complementary graphic elements POSITIONING Development of overall key messaging concepts incorporated throughout marketing materials including any relevant taglines for the project.
Web Presence Websites serve as the primary channel that prospective buyers use to interact with a project. A well-designed website not only provides vital information but incites curiosity and drives a deeper connection with the lifestyle offering. Kuper Creative will develop an engaging website with optimized navigation, programming, and functionality. WEBSITE TECHNOLOGY DETAILS The site will be developed utilizing industry best practices, functioning on all devices, and will feature responsive web design providing optimal imaging across a variety of devices, windows and screen sizes.
Social Media Management Our Social Media program brings your development to the next level. It is imperative for a development to use social media in marketing their project and their lifestyle as it is a medium to connect to the community and reach new clients. While any project can have a social media account, it’s not always clear how to use social media as a tool to send the right message to the right people at the right time, and it’s not always easy to keep your pages up to date. Kuper Creative’s social media management program can offer a solution for the three most important social media channels for developments—Facebook, Instagram, and Linkedin— that combines curated content for the development in tandem with specific project updates to create robust, evergreen profiles
Renderings & 3D Animation 3D Renderings can express the highest level of emotion and detail about a project. Kuper Creative’s ultra-realistic renderings stand apart from others in their intensity, fidelity, and storytelling. Kuper Creative crafts renderings that reveal the true nature of the project’s brand and lifestyle. High-impact animations provide a tangible, illustrative vision of the project. Each high-fidelity animation scene includes multiple camera angles of the space providing the feeling of a 3D walkthrough.
Photography & Videography Beyond renderings, actual photography and videography can be impactful for a project in many ways. When the product is at a stage to be photographed, Kuper Creative can coordinate professional photography and video shoots to capture the project. In addition to that, it’s also important to utilize photography and videography to capture the lifestyle in and around the project. Oftentimes, an engaging video highlighting the area and its amenities can help to capture what it would be like to truly live there.
Graphic Design Each development project is unique, and because of that Kuper Creative is equipped to execute creative projects of varying degrees. BROCHURES A concise project presentation including information on the project, location, floor plans, services, amenities, and the team can be customized for the project. E-MARKETING An e-blast serves as an informative digital touch-point that keeps the property topof-mind for prospective buyers and brokers. Each e-blast provides details on a specific element of the property as a stand alone collateral piece, yet collectively they provide a broader engaging narrative. Custom digital newsletter campaigns can also be created. DIRECT MAIL Direct mail delivers the strongest return on investment for customer acquisition for B2C marketers. Kuper Creative can design stand-out postcards and other direct mail items to be sent to curated lists of potential buyers. ADVERTISEMENTS A strong ad campaign can evoke curiosity and interest in a property. Kuper Creative will craft a compelling ad campaign that highlights the property’s key attributes and provides strong messaging and positioning to prospective buyers across channels.
Event Management Well-executed events can be one of the most effective ways to market a development. Kuper Creative’s extensive experience in event management will ensure that every step from conceptualization, promotion, and execution of an event will be successful. We can create experiences both big and small, from private functions for 25 to extravagant celebrations with hundreds of attendees.
Public Relations Kuper Creative can employ a professional public relations strategy to gain exposure in targeted media outlets for prospective buyers to learn about the development. The objective of a custom PR plan is to promote the project to local, national, and, if appropriate, international publications that spotlight luxury real estate. Utilizing our local PR professional, along with the public relations team at Sotheby’s International Realty and the Texas Newswire, will ensure the news of the project reaching all relevant media partners.
