Dara Allen

With 25+ years in luxury real estate, I am passionate about helping clients achieve their dreams with meticulous care, expertise, and a commitment to excellence. My background in interior design and staging offers a unique edge, enabling clients to reimagine spaces for maximum appeal and value. Having worked in both California and Texas, including Los Angeles’ prestigious Platinum Triangle, I bring “West Coast savvy” to Austin’s luxury market, serving elite clientele such as entertainment industry icons and professional athletes.

As the Founding Broker Associate and Executive Vice President of Strategic Growth at Christie’s International Real Estate Austin, I leverage Christie’s presence in 50+ countries to offer clients unparalleled exposure and exclusive opportunities. A proud member of Christie’s Master Circle and Sports & Entertainment Division, I stay deeply connected to the luxury market’s pulse.

I also serve as a U.S. Ambassador for the Global Wellness Institute, blending wellness with real estate by emphasizing designs that promote well-being, such as in-home fitness centers and biophilic elements.

Outside of work, I’m a proud mom to two daughters. My youngest studies Sports Management at UT Austin, while my eldest, a 2012 UT graduate, lives in Alamo Heights with her three children. Austin’s luxury real estate market is dynamic, and I’m committed to providing a seamless, informed experience that ensures success in buying, selling, or exploring.
