For Susan, working with every customer is like a new adventure. For nearly three decades, Bratton has enjoyed the adventures she embarks upon with her clients, energetically helping them find the perfect home and neighborhood.
Bratton, a Senior Vice President and Broker Associate with Allie Beth Allman & Associates, has lived and worked in and around the Park Cities, Preston Hollow, Turtle Creek, Oak Lawn, Uptown, and downtown Dallas areas since 1989. She entered real estate by way of fashion. A former clothing designer, she sold her line quickly which piqued her interest in sales. I thought if I could sell shirts and pants, I could sell something even bigger…better, she says. Today, Bratton is known within the industry for developing a new area in Turtle Creek where she sold out numerous developments in record time, listing and selling many of them herself.
A self-developed marketing plan combined with a passion for all things home, garden, and design have contributed to her success. I enjoy remodeling and staging my listings. Adding that extra touch to my real estate acumen has shortened time on market to just hours, has increased profits, and has garnered well over listing price and multiple offers.
Clients often cite Bratton’s interest in their wants and needs and ability to truly listen to them as one of the many reasons they hire and refer her. It is so gratifying to help them find a home they fall in love with and one that is a great investment, she says. When Bratton isn’t busy helping buyers and sellers, she travels the world and feels that broadens her knowledge of design. She has also devoted time and attention to the communities and charities she loves holding significant positions in many.
