Finding a new property in Austin is very difficult right now and Laura made the process so much less stressful. She is extremely responsive, attentive and very detail oriented.

She truly is amazing and we are so blessed to have met her. Thank you Laura!! - Fabiola & Victor

Laura was my realtor when I moved from Houston to Austin. She was responsive and communicative from…read morethe get-go and I cannot recommend her highly enough! Laura is top notch and one of kind! Right after deciding on my home, I traveled out of the country for 3 weeks during the buying process time. Needless to say, it made me nervous that everything would be done in time for my move when I returned back to the states. I had nothing to fear. Laura was continually and appropriately in touch with me all along the way. There were things that were my responsibility to do and yet Laura took them on, knowing my situation. Who steps up like that anymore? I mean, she truly went above and beyond every step of the way. To be honest, I was dumbfounded at how much she did for me-like even showing up to let the home inspector in! I truly could not believe it! Laura is AMAZING!!! Even after I purchased my home, Laura continues to stay in touch with me and is always happy to help with any home related questions I may have. I could not have found a more reliable, consistent, cheerful, knowledgable, and kind realtor to have helped me during what is a very involved process. Laura made it a breeze! Do yourself a favor-call her!

"I need to save more," "I need a partner," "I don't know enough about the market." All excuses I…read moregave myself for not owning a home in my 5 years as a working professional. Forget all of it. Kristina is a whiz and an expert when it comes to working with first-time home buyers, single-home buyers or home-buyers who don't want or can't afford to put down 20%. She is equally sharp and patient, and if you have any doubts you can follow her blog (https://www.howtobuyahouseinaustin.com/) or instagram (@open_houseaustin). There are plenty of realtors in Austin and many can be pushy. Kristina is not. She met me for coffee and gave me a free book she wrote on her own about the Austin market. Throughout the next 9-10 months, I asked her random questions on IG and followed her blog to learn as much as I could about Austin. I also reviewed various listings that she was sent through her realty company until I felt comfortable reaching out to her to purchase a home. During the home-buying process Kristina was gave me plenty of feedback on the pros and cons of various homes, ways I could monetize my own property or make upgrades to make it more affordable and/or valuable and insights into the East Austin market. I picked out homes I wanted to visit and she helped me find similar homes within my price range, or ones that I had not thought of. She also connected me to a great lending team that helped make the closing and moving process smooth and I felt like I was fully prepared to become a homeowner in the hot Austin market even though I am single. I was even able to close 5 days early (closing took less than 30 days total) and earn a bonus from the seller. I would highly recommend Kristina to anyone if you are even considering owning a home in the future, regardless of the stage of life you are in.

It helped Cristina had been referred to me by a friend - so I had an endorsement already! Cristina was SO fast moving and helped us secure an offer on our dream house in a 12 hour turnaround. She advised on how much to offer over asking price (which was THE thing that clenched our home for us), the ins-and-outs of writing a personal letter (actually, THIS was the thing that clenched it + offering the right amount of $), and was in constant communication. While Cristina is in high demand, it felt like we were her only clients. She has a team of professionals who work to get small questions answered, and she's available by phone or text any time. She knew the right amount of explaining needed without making us feel like dum-dums and also offered recommendations on things like painting and renovation down the line. I'd highly recommend Cristina to anyone looking to buy a home. She's my realtor for life and I feel confident she can help you and adapt to your style, wishes, budget and timeline.

Thank you so much for being patient, timely, caring, understanding, informative, knowledgeable, and available to answer all my questions. The one thing I will always remember is what you told me almost 2 years ago, "it's okay to wait and see what comes available." The fact that I wasn't just another sale or another number meant the most to me. So we waited a year until the market cooled down. How lucky was I sending you the listing of the new build on a Friday, you got us a meeting with the builder on Sunday, they informed us they had another sale happening on Monday, put us on the list, and we won the contract? This would have never happened if you were not who you are today and I'm so grateful that you capitalized on this moment for me. Not only did you connect me with the builder, but you connected me with an amazing lender who was so passionate to help me, then you walked through the blue tape and green tape with me as I marked my house for any necessary corrections. I don't think I would have caught all the mistakes that I did without your help and Jason's help. I think I was too excited and focused on having fun than paying attention to the little details! You guys didn't have to do that, but you guys did anyways and it meant a lot to me. The customer service was superb and outstanding! I cannot wait to see who needs to buy a house because I'm going to be a huge advocate for you! I recommend anyone to work with Christina! Her professionalism is above so many people, she cares a lot about you as a person, and will advise you on how to get the best deal possible.

I provided Christina with a wish list and Christina found the purple unicorn for me! Christina has gone above and beyond every step of the way. We had a long and detailed initial consultation addressing not only my practical wish list, but also touching on the emotional aspects of the home purchasing process. One of my biggest concerns at the time was not having enough time to do the research or to take the action steps required to make an informed decision, but Christina was very knowledgeable about Austin market trends, and about the home purchasing process. It was immediately clear I could trust her feedback when I asked for advice. She then proceeded to conduct research and provide me with information to help me screen, vet and carefully select the key players that would facilitate successfully closing on my home. She even encouraged me to schedule a 2nd, and 3rd estimate and thus, she was able to negotiate a fantastic deal. I'm so grateful for this serendipitous turn of events. I highly recommend Chriatina for all your real estate needs!
