Are You Buying or Selling? I'd Love to Help!

Leah Gay Roustan was born and raised in Austin, Texas. She graduated from Anderson High School and attended the University of Texas in Austin. She moved to South Padre Island in 2005, started working in short term vacation rentals in 2010, and earned her real estate license in 2012.

While in South Padre Island she sat as chair for the membership committee for the South Padre Island Board of REALTORS® (SPIBOR) where she planned meetings, speakers, sponsors, education on current events, TREC changes and other important information. She also represented South Padre Island as the Texas REALTOR® Director, attending state conferences and representing her area regarding real estate issues in the state of Texas. She was voted 2020 REALTOR® of the Year by SPIBOR. She is looking forward to being actively involved in the Austin Board of REALTORS®.

After 13 years in real estate, Leah has come to love the whole process – the looking, finding, negotiating, and closing. Leah is not afraid to get in the trenches with her clients. She believes once you start the process, you are a team, and she is invested in your transaction like it was her very own.

Leah is happy to be back in her hometown and working at Dochen REALTORS®. She has known the Dochens since she was 4 years old, so she knew she shared the same values as Carol Dochen, who is professional, fair and ethical – not to mention a force in the Austin real estate market. She is excited to learn and grow with the team at Dochen REALTORS®.

Leah is married to Fabian and they have two kids, Lillian and Hunter. Leah is fluent in Spanish (her husband is from Vera Cruz, Mexico) and she LOVES the culture and the language. Her life changed when daughter was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes and she is passionate about being her advocate and voice on the difficult journey. You can catch Leah enjoying Austin at Farmer’s markets, The Thinkery, Central Market’s playground, walking the greenbelt or eating County Line BBQ.
