A co-owner of the Bartlett Real Estate Group, Tim, a native Texan, received his business degree from Baylor University in 1981 and started his real estate sales career in Houston initially marketing to 1st and 2nd time homebuyers; then, later marketing to move up to luxury and ultra luxury homebuyers from around $500,000 to the multiple millions. Tim has worked with builders specializing from ultra contemporary, traditional, Austin-urban, Spanish, Tuscan, hill country and colonial architecture. Tim has worked with several builders in helping in the design stage for homes involved with Austin's Green Building Program varying from 2 to 5 star ratings.

Tim has been involved with developments from raw land to tentative mapping, to final mapping, to marketing projects at these stages or upon completion of the infrastructure, or marketing homes on the completed homesites.

For the past 8 years, Tim had coordinated the very successful River North Area Realtor Property Tour to show premier listings in the area to the realtor community.

Upon relocating to San Diego in 1986, Tim operated as an independent real estate broker marketing exclusive residential homes, acre-plus estate sites and subdivision development sites (either completed or at various mapping stages).

Since moving back to Texas in 1995, Tim has continued to focus on marketing very upscale residences, winning numerous company and national achievement awards to include the following:

As 14 year residents of River Place, Tim and his family love the variety of amenities and atmosphere that River Place and the surrounding area offers as well as the easy access to the many amenities that Austin provides. He has watched most of the homes being built in the River North area, which gives him a tremendous marketing advantage.

Tim's strength was partially derived from a real estate broker in La Jolla who was blinded at an early age, yet became an extremely successful real estate agent, broker, mediator, and real estate board president. Read the astonishing story at www.klattrealty.com

He further gains his drive from one grandfather who was a professional football player, and another who ran a very successful steel manufacturing comany and was president of the Steel Builder's Association. "I feel it is my obligation to my ancestors and to my immediate family to help as many people I can to be the best I can be."

Tim is a regular guest on "The Real Estate Show" with Dave McMillan on 1370am from 1-3pm on Saturday.

Tim enjoys playing ice hockey, running, and spending time at his father's ranch in Flatonia, TX.
