Reed and Regina are the best!…read more While searching for a house, my girlfriend and I worked with several realtors who were eager to show us anything -- and sell us anything as fast as possible. Reed and Regina took their time to understand what we wanted, and then went above and beyond. Checking water pressure, looking for signs of water damage, looking at the AC and laundry units? All par of the course. Throughout the entire process, both would offer us their unfiltered opinions and help us see things we weren't even looking for. These guys are just amazing, and we couldn't have been happier to have found them. Sunny Day Real Estate for the win!

He was professional while laid back and has a passion for what he does. We have referred everyone to him we possibly can. My wifend I built a home and ended up having issues with our builder. We started working with Reed in March of 2012 and closed September 2014. My wife and I built a home and ended up having issues with our builder. Reed worked tirelessly on contracts, helped us pick out finish outs to stay in budget, helped us work with financing and basically just held our hands through the whole thing. If we had a question, we received a response that was thorough and prompt. He had patience and focus and that is the only reason we ever got in our home. One of the most impressive moments was when we randomly came to the build and found Reed in the tree well digging out dirt with a pick axe and shovel so we could meet the tree inspection deadline. The builder was dragging his feet and Reed decided he could get it done. It was August and miserable and he was moving bucketloads of dirt out so we could close. We will always count Reed a friend and can't thank him enough for his help. Reed is a rockstar and if you are a friend of mine, chances are I have told you that already. Reed and Regina just recently helped my wife's mother get a home and had a wonderful experience. They have been there every step and have helped make the experience enjoyable.

I could not recommend Don highly enough! I'm so incredibly greatful that our paths had crossed…read moreprior to needing an agent. When the time approached for my husband and I to purchase a luxury home, I thought I'd interview several real estate agents and choose from them. Our situation was that we were coming into some money and wanted to begin our search before we actually had the money. We asked to set up an interview with the first agent who specialized in luxury homes. She didn't want to meet with us until we had the money. Ok. She said she'd do an MLS search and send me some listings to look at in the mean time. I told her our dream neighborhood, Covenant Estates, and we both lamented that homes didn't come onto the market there very often. When she sent me the listings, she was trying to steer us to a different neighborhood further away. Fair enough. Listings didn't come up very much in CE, our target neighborhood, but the new neighborhood was further out of town and we worked in town. She had never bothered to ask about any of this. That weekend, I noticed a brand new "under contract" sign in CE. I texted her and asked about it. She just had an attitude of "yeah, too bad." And no explanation of why she wasn't aware of it before it went under contract and I literally never heard another word from her after that text. So, at this point I reached out to Don. I explained the entire situation, that we didn't have the money yet and that there was even an outside chance that we'd never get it. This didn't matter to Don at all! In our first conversation he laid out a plan to get us what we wanted. This included researching every agent who had sold a house in CE in the last five years and then contacting them to find out if they had anything coming on the market that hadn't been listed yet. Genius! By the end of or first phone conversation I knew he was our guy and we didn't need to talk to anyone else. It was night and day compared to my experience with the first agent. While Don was working on that, we requested to just go see a home that we kind of thought was out of our league because it just liked so incredible and we wanted to see it in person, just for fun. Don obliged us and said he thought that it can sometimes be good to go see a house you don't think you actually want because it can confirm what you do want. Well, it was the first house we saw, but we fell in love! Mind you, we didn't have the money yet. Don had so much wisdom and knowledge, he advised us as to the right moves to sort of stall until we got the money, while keeping us on the good side of the seller's agent. Simultaneously, he found a CE home that the owners had been contemplating putting on the market but hadn't yet! No one knew about it but us thanks to Don! We toured that home as well as another in a different but very close neighborhood. Well, as much as we thought we wanted to be in CE, the more we thought about it and talked it over with Don, we knew that the first home was the one for us. It was about 10 minutes away from CE, but it was 10 minutes closer to town, not further away. Don played the game expertly and gave the other agent only the necessary info at the necessary time so that we were able to be in the running for the home and when the money came in, we snatched it up! We got it for over $150,000 less than the list price. Don and Tina made the home buying process go so smoothly from that point. At one point Don mentioned something about having another closing scheduled and it hit me that all this time, he'd made us feel like we were his one and only clients, but of course he had other clients simultaneously. I'm willing to bet they all felt like they were the only ones. We've been in our dream home for 3 months now and we can't imagine another home in all of Austin that could possibly be a better fit for our family, at ANY price point. Without Don's expert advice and guidance, this house could have been the one that got away and we would have "what if'ed?" for the rest of our lives. I'll add that Don always made sure he was just advising us, but that the decisions were in our hands. He never made us feel like we were wasting his time, even when us getting the money was not a guarantee. I believe two of the seller's agents, luxury home agents, made remarks about how wonderful Don was to work with. On top of that, Don always had great recommendations for anything we needed outside of his job as our agent. We have been thrilled with the designer he recommended for us and even met with a financial planner he thought would be a good fit for us as well. Don even helped me with a lease for my old home just last month and that experience was just as impressive and smooth even though he had nothing to gain from it. I could go on all day. Do yourself a favor and hire Don. You'll not be disappointed!

Don's a great realtor! My friend recommended him, and it was an excellent recommendation. This…read morewas my first home buying experience, so i knew nothing. Don really guided me through everything, and helped me to consider things i'd never even thought about, as far as home-buying goes. He gave me some great resources, including the home searching database, a way to look up amounts of crime in potential neighborhoods, and even introduced me to what is now my favorite GPS app! When he came to pick me up the first day we went to look at houses i'd chosen, i had printed out all the houses we'd go to on a map, and optimized the route. When i got in the car, Don had a folder for me with that exact information! I'm always impressed with someone as OCD as me, organizationally. Without Don's guidance, i would've fallen in love with a house i ultimately didn't like. He really gave me a lot to think about, and i think i ultimately made the best choice for me, with his help. And the other Yelpers are right: Don's a great person, a great real estate agent, and a delight to be around. I truly enjoyed my experience with him. It's rare that anyone gets my sometimes dry and often very offbeat, off-color sense of humor, but Don wasn't offended or confused (wish i could say the same for some of the salespeople we encountered). He kept up, which really relaxes me. And here's the cherry: two months after moving into my house, i was robbed. The burglars took a bunch of stuff that is easily replaceable, but they also took a coin collection i've been building since i was seven years old. I was devastated about this, and posted on Facebook that i'd lost something very dear to me. I requested that friends donate coins to my new collection, to give it some of the sentimental value i'd lost. The very next day, Don left a tiny box on my doorstep. I opened it, and it was FULL of coins he'd collected on trips, and from relatives, with an explanation of how he'd obtained the different kinds. It was so sweet and generous and even made me tear up a little bit. A robbery can make your house seem like a very cold place, but Don really warmed it back up for me. :-)

Each time, they have gone above and beyond what I would normally expect of a realtor team. There are a lot of traits they have that you take for granted until you work with someone who doesn't have them: accountability, expertise, and honesty to name a few. I was getting married, moving out of state, and changing jobs...all while trying to rent out my condo. They not only helped find a tenant, but Matt even went over to scrub the grout in my tiles to make sure it showed well. I lost my mailbox key and Matt helped coordinate a locksmith for my tenant. When my HVAC and fridge went out on my tenant (I lived in California), Matt provided his trusted contacts so I knew I would get those things resolved the quickly and reliably. During the sale of my condo, we were getting the run around from the buyer's bank which led to some closing delays. Matt and Melissa didn't settle for status quo and really pushed on the bank to prevent any further closing delays. At the end of the day, I wouldn't say I'm the expert on the nuances of real estate, but I didn't need to with Matt and Melissa. I can't recommend them enough!

Where do I start with James! LOL. I'm not even sure how I can describe all he's done for us…read morebecause its frankly gone beyond the scope of his job as a real estate agent. We met James by chance after requesting to view a home on realtor.com. We immediately liked his style and personality and decided to work with him full-time to sell our home and purchase a new home (we just closed today, yipeee). He is one of the most friendly, understanding and authentic people I have ever met and made the entire home buying/selling experience about as seamless as I can imagine it being. We were in a pickle because we needed to sell our home before buying a new one and in THIS crazy housing market, a "contingency" is just unattractive and difficult. We learned that the hard way when we put an offer on the first house we loved and didn't make the cut. Thankfully, with James spot on pricing and beautiful photos etc, he sold our home in TWO DAYS! He got us an outstanding deal that we just couldn't believe. We were baffled by how savvy he was in negotiating things for our sale. We were extremely happy to say the least! James was always available when we needed him or had any questions about the process of buying. A home popped up on his radar and before the listing agent even had all the photos, he had scheduled a showing for us. He knew we would love the home and he was right lol. Before midnight that night, he had written up an offer and submitted it. We were so fast even the sellers were shocked. We ended up getting this home (we are SOOOO excited) and we sincerely feel that it was because he was very punctual and attentive that we were able to be first in line. The home received many other offers but with James' help we got it all done. Beyond all of this, James has become a friend. He golfs with my husband and is truly an enjoyable person to be around. We are so glad we met him! Definitely will recommend him to anyone who needs a realtor as you will not find a more attentive real estate agent. He makes you feel like you are his only client!
