Dedicated. Experienced. Authentic. These are just a few words to describe Lisa and Jennifer, the dynamic duo behind Thomajan Ladner Group. Lisa and Jennifer began working together in 2016 as the sales team behind the luxury condominium development, 70 Rainey. From construction to closing, they worked to develop relationships with various industry leaders and community members, culminating in a beautiful and iconic tower in the Rainey Street district of downtown Austin. In 2019 Lisa and Jennifer officially joined forces as a real estate team closing over $130M in sales that year.
You’d be hard-pressed to find a pair more knowledgeable (and passionate) about the community. In addition to their exceptional work ethic and background in business, Lisa and Jennifer also brings a caring, honest, and optimistic attitude to the table. They pride themselves on taking the time to truly get to know each of their clients on a personal level—where they’re from, what’s bringing them to Austin, and their real estate goals. It is this approach that allows them to build authentic relationships with their clients, staying in touch with many of them long after closing.
After earning a business degree from Louisiana State University, Jennifer spent several years working in finance and sales. In 2013, Jennifer decided to switch gears and pursue her lifelong dream of working in real estate. She immediately fell in love with the industry and Austin was the perfect place to settle into that calling. From the refreshing outdoor lifestyle to the energetic feeling of downtown, Jennifer knows that Austin truly offers the best of both worlds, and there’s nothing she enjoys more than helping people find their place in this eclectic city. To her, there’s nothing more rewarding than seeing clients excited about landing their dream home and starting the next chapters of their lives.
Jennifer currently lives in South Austin with her husband (Conners), children (Juliet and August), and their black labradoodle (JoJo.) A love for real estate and design truly runs in the family, as Conners works as a landscape architect, and the two occasionally cross paths on a professional level in development projects. In their spare time the couple pursues real estate investment and residential redevelopment opportunities in Austin and the surrounding areas.
Though she was born and raised in the Midwest and lived in New York City for many years, Lisa found herself drawn to Austin’s trademark combination of live music, stunning nature, and world-class amenities with a small-town feel. Lisa traded the East Coast for the South in 2005 and never looked back. She got her start as an entrepreneur, owning and operating a bakery in downtown Austin and she and her husband, Stuart are still immersed in the hospitality industry owning several restaurants. Lisa’s introduction to real estate came in the form of participating in personal and professional real estate developments with her husband, who works as a developer. Lisa quickly established a love for the industry, realizing it combined her passions for marketing and interior design. Lisa’s favorite part of the job is getting to form genuine connections that go beyond the buying and selling processes. The responsibility of helping someone make one of the biggest decisions of their life is not one she takes lightly, and she manages to infuse her professionalism with authentic friendliness and thoughtfulness, leading those with whom she works to become repeat clients and friends.
Lisa currently lives in the Westlake community of Austin with her husband. Some of her favorite pastimes include running, gardening, and spending time with her daughter (Zayne), who recently moved back to the area. Lisa also believes in the importance of giving back and serves on the advisory board for Woman@Austin, an organization that helps advance and support women entrepreneurs striving to grow their companies.
Our mission is to build a relationship that goes beyond just buying and selling, but is one that is built on trust, honesty and communication coupled with vision and innovation. A relationship where you are more than just clients.
