Part of the strength of the real estate partnership known in Round Top and surrounding areas as “Your Home Team” is the 40+ year friendship between real estate partners Peg Richardson and Betty Melton. The two friends formed “Your Home Team,” 20 years ago n most recently joined forces with Compass RE Texas, LLC the largest independently owned real estate company in the US.
Serving a six-county area (Austin, Bastrop, Colorado, Fayette, Lee & Washington Counties) they specialize in Farm and Ranch, Country Properties, and Property & Home Staging. These two savvy real estate pros share mutual respect and a common professional philosophy. They each firmly believe that knowledge is power and go out of their way to educate their buyers and sellers. Their ethics and professionalism are unapproachable and their marketing plans are assertive and cutting edge.
“We love, live and sell the Country. We pride ourselves in providing our clients 2 times the experience, 2 times the expertise and 2 times the service that they would get with any single agent. Don’t Make A Move Without US!”
Peg Richardson
grew up in a small farming community in Michigan with parents who farmed and raised quarter horses. Living in rural America instilled in her a love for horses, homegrown vegetables and the value of hard work and the joys of life in the country. Early on Peg was fortunate to have personally experienced several corporate relocations which facilitated her desire to help other families through the transition into a new community. From the beginning of her real estate career Peg became a Top Producer and thoroughly enjoyed working with other families relocating to Houston as she had.
Eventually Peg moved to the Chicago area where she became a national Director of Destination (relocation) Services covering a 7-state region. She was eventually recruited to work for a leading edge firm selling web based tools and training real estate agents.
As time went on Peg realized as much fun as it was to be working WITH the real estate community and traveling through-out the country it would be much more fun to be back working IN the real estate industry. So in 2002 she moved back to her adopted home, Texas, and back to life in a small town. Which is where she met her husband, Kirk. Her technology background is invaluable for today’s real estate needs. She is an effective communicator, organized, dependable and ‘techie’. In her spare time she enjoys being with her grandkids, redoing old furniture, decorating and organizing.
Betty Melton
a native Texan, grew up in the little farming, German settlement near San Antonio - Castroville, Texas. She moved to Houston when she married her husband, Randy, a native Houstonian, in the early 1970’s. She graduated from the University of Houston and soon after acquired her real estate and Broker’s licenses.
From the beginning she had the ‘touch of sold’ and was consistently a Top Producer. But she never forgot her small town roots. In 2002 she and her husband moved full time to their circa 1880’s farmhouse in Round Top.
Betty embraced country living and selling what she loves – country property! Her ethics and knowledge are unapproachable and her marketing plans are assertive and cutting edge. She is always honest, upfront and hardworking, making sure that all parties are satisfied by the end result. In her spare time she loves running, reading, gardening, teaching yoga and working on her antique home.
