Terri Brak Thomas is a Global Real Estate Advisor with Briggs Freeman Sotheby’s International Realty, specializing in luxury residential transactions, relocations, and second-home properties in Dallas and surrounding lake communities. With more than 25 years of experience in high-level client service and luxury transactions, Terri is known for her precision, discretion, and personalized approach.

Fluent in German and having lived in Germany, Tanzania, and Panama, Terri brings a truly international perspective to her work. She regularly assists clients relocating to Dallas, purchasing lakefront second homes, or coordinating cross-border moves. As a certified Sotheby’s Concierge Silver Preferred Agent and Relocation Specialist, she leverages the global Sotheby’s International Realty network to provide seamless transitions both locally and internationally.

Terri’s professional excellence has earned her recognition on D Magazine’s Best Agents list in 2024, and the 2025 Martha Miller Fellowship Award from Briggs Freeman Sotheby’s International Realty, and the role of internal Ambassador for BFSIR in 2024, where she communicated with brokerage leadership and her fellow advisors about company initiatives. These distinctions reflect her commitment to elevated service and trusted representation.

Before entering real estate, Terri built a successful career in luxury retail with Yves Saint Laurent, Cartier, Louis Vuitton, and Chanel. Combined with her family’s Chicago-based property business background, this experience informs her refined understanding of branding, presentation, and client experience at the highest level.

A downtown Dallas resident, Terri is actively involved in the community through volunteer work with OurCalling. Outside of work, she enjoys fitness, hot yoga, travel, and time with family and friends.

Terri works with clients who value strategic guidance, global connectivity, and a well-managed path to closing.
