Allison Caudle is the Owner and Broker-In-Charge at Southern Lux Living. Raised in Raleigh as the middle child of three daughters, Allison Caudle Abbott grew up watching her parents balance family life with business ownership. She followed in their footsteps, now splitting her time between her role as mom of two daughters in her newly blended family and her role as the Owner and Broker-in-Charge at Southern Lux Living. A REALTOR / Broker since 2007, Allison is in hot demand, serving the real estate needs of the Triangle and surrounding areas. She co-opened an international real estate company in 2014, which grew to over 50 agents, closing over 800 houses a year. Allison herself has been listed among the top agents in the North Carolina, having sold over 300 million in real estate. She holds multiple awards for being Top Producer in the industry. "I truly love what I do," says Allison. "I listen, I'm patient, I educate, I help, I do what I say I'm going to do, and I'm there until the end. Working with buyers and sellers is such a deep passion of mine. Staging homes, watching people fall in love with a home, hearing stories of how couples met, meeting the entire family, hearing squeals of kids as they pick their rooms during the final walk-through, watching sellers glow with pride as they give me a tour of their home--for me, this is what it's all about." Her goal is not only 100% customer satisfaction, but also achieving 100% personal satisfaction in the home/work life balance. "Anywhere my family is, is home," says Allison, as she demonstrates how working mothers can balance the exciting demands of a career with the comforts of family life. The satisfaction Allison gets from being a mom does not mean everything is flawless all the time. "We are raising two girls," Allison says, "so I try to be a strong role model for them. It's hard juggling sometimes and you don't want to show your kids you struggle. But at the same time, you want them to know it's ok not to be perfect all the time and hard work is key to being successful."
