Kathleen Wainwright

Kat Wainwright grew up on beautiful Catalina Island, California, before making her way to Austin, where she instantly fell in love with the city's vibrant energy and welcoming community. Before starting her real estate career in 2005, Kat owned her own hair salon, where she developed strong client relationships and honed her entrepreneurial spirit. Her experience managing a business and leading a team gave her valuable insights into customer service, listening to client needs, and fostering a collaborative environment—all of which translate seamlessly into her role as a real estate professional.

Kat’s journey into real estate was driven by her family and a deep desire to help others. She combines a genuine passion for supporting people with her hardworking nature, bringing an unmatched level of care to every client interaction. Kat’s background as a business owner gives her a unique perspective, and she always goes the extra mile to ensure her clients feel heard, supported, and confident throughout the process. She is dedicated to helping clients not just find a house but truly feel at home.

Outside of real estate, Kat enjoys life with her husband, Tony, her three daughters, two stepdaughters, and two sweet dogs. She has a green thumb for houseplants, loves staying active through yoga, running, kayaking, and jiu-jitsu, and enjoys spending quality time with her family. Kat also has a newfound passion for baking, experimenting with unique sourdough flavors—her chocolate-infused loaves for Valentine’s Day were a hit!
