When we began our search for a home, we thought we were looking for a realtor. What we found in…read moreLaura Tomaszewski was so much more. From day one, Laura took the time to truly get to know us as people. She listened carefully to what we liked and didn't like, understood our goals, and took the time to learn what was most important to us in finding the right home. She didn't just help us search for houses... she became a trusted advocate who genuinely championed our interests every step of the way. Laura went above and beyond in ways we never expected. Every property we considered was thoroughly vetted, not only for its features and condition, but also for potential issues that could affect us down the road. Whether it was physical concerns with the property, deed restrictions, HOA requirements, or anything else that might impact our future enjoyment of the home, Laura dug deep and made sure we had the information we needed to make confident decisions. What impressed us most was the level of care she brought to the process. She evaluated each home as if her own family were purchasing it. We never felt pressured. We never felt rushed. We always felt protected, informed, and supported. Buying a home can be stressful, but Laura made the experience as enjoyable and stress-free as possible. Her professionalism, attention to detail, knowledge, and genuine care for her clients set her apart. She isn't simply selling homes... she's helping people create the next chapter of their lives. We are incredibly grateful for everything Laura did for us and would recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. If you want someone who will truly have your best interests at heart, Laura Tomaszewski is the person you want by your side. Thank you, Laura, for helping us find not just a house, but a place we are excited to call home.

Relocating from the East Coast to Texas with a family is not simple, and Julie made the whole…read moreprocess feel manageable. We came in not knowing the areas, the differences between neighborhoods, or even what type of home made the most sense for us long term. Julie helped us break it all down in a way that was easy to understand. She was very knowledgeable about different neighborhoods, school districts, and what each area actually offers. That helped us narrow things down quickly without feeling like we were guessing. One of the biggest things she helped us with was understanding the pros and cons of new construction versus existing homes. She walked us through taxes, long term costs, and what to expect in each scenario, which gave us a lot more confidence in our decisions. She also did a great job balancing both my preferences and my wife's. That's not easy, but she stayed patient and helped us find common ground without ever pushing us. We also spent part of the process renting, and she supported us through that phase too, which we really appreciated. Overall, she's thoughtful, informed, and genuinely cares about helping you find the right fit. Highly recommend.

Working with Teresa Carson was a wonderful experience. As I searched for a home in a new city,…read moreTeresa offered her wisdom and insight without ever trying to steer me in any one direction. She was not only professional and knowledgeable, but also thoughtful, forthright, and always respectful of my time (which was very limited) and my budget...also very limited. What really set Teresa apart was her sharp eye and honesty. She likely saved me from a serious financial loss (and potential health problems) by identifying a critical issue in a home I was ready to make an offer on. That alone showed how much she truly had my best interests at heart and not just to make a sale. Beyond that, Teresa was responsive, attentive, and a lot of fun to work with. Thanks to her, I was able to make one of the biggest decisions for me and my family with confidence and peace of mind. I highly recommend having Teresa on your team--whether you're buying, selling, renting, or even building a home.

It's unfortunate with all the good reviews for this place, we did not receive that same service…read more However, this is specifically about Michael Said who represents himself as part of this business. We were waiting on a house to move into and needed a temporary place to stay. Initially we felt fortunate to find this place as it was reasonably priced and we could rent it for six months. It was freshly painted but infested with cock roaches. Each time we notified Mr. Said, he did ultimately arrange for pest control. There were light switches that did not work, a closet door that would come off it's rails, missing drawer handles and we would find mice/rat feces in some cupboards in the kitchen. Mr. Said would have a maintenance person come out and fix things but typically not without multiple requests. But, we were only going to be there for a few months and we figured we would just tough it out. We barely unpacked since we were going to move again in a few short months. More than 30 days prior to our lease ending, we did notify Mr. Said that we would be leaving and not extend the lease. We also requested a "walk through" with Mr. Said. While he acknowledged the 30 day notice, he never responded to the walk through. On December 19th, more than ten days before the lease would end, we vacated the property but Mr. Said would not agree to meet. Ultimately, we left the keys under the door mat on December 21 as per Mr. Said's request. This was a full days before the lease was to expire and more than enough time for Mr. Said to walk through himself or with me to identify anything he felt should be addressed before the leased ended on December 31. But Mr. Said did not do this. On January 28, 2023 we received our refund and it was minus: - $150 for cleaning - $300 for "touch up paint" - $300 "yard cleaning & dead landscaping replacement" Given the constant cock roaches and rodent feces, I find the $150 cleaning to be excessive but we are not asking for that back. However, the place was newly painted and we never hung anything on the walls. There was absolutely not damage done to any walls that would necessitate any "touch up painting". The $300 is absurd and the lease specifically states "normal wear and tear expected". But there were no areas that needed touch up paint. It was winter when we moved out; Austin had just experienced several days of temperatures in the teens. You cannot possibly ascertain between landscaping that was dead versus dormant. However, there is no landscaping so I'm not even sure what they are claiming. There are two trees in the front and a big tree in the back. There are no shrubs, flowers or what they call "landscaping". While there might have been leaves on the ground, that's unavoidable at that time of year and no matter how often we could have cleaned up leaves from the trees, there would always be leaves. But there was no landscaping that arises to the $300 deduction Mr. Said took. I am a disabled Veteran who served 30 years for this country and it's appalling when people like Mr. Said take advantage of people. Again, I am posting this as Mr. Said represents himself as Realty Austin and for anyone who might do business with them, just to be aware of the practices of some of their people, specifically Mr. Said.
