She is very professional, through, detail oriented and went beyond what one can expect from a sellers agent, taking care that everything was done, down to even weeding my lawn when needed as I was gone! I guarantee you can't go wrong with Sheri . She will go the extra mile and she is a very nice person too!

I first met Sheri back in 2014 when my husband at the time and I were deciding between buying a new…read moreplace or renovating his existing place. Sheri came to look at my now ex husband's house and recommended we just make it the way we want given how much a new house would cost. From that day, I felt Sheri was extremely honest and trustworthy. She could've recommended that we sell it and be our seller and buyer agent. Fast forward 4 years, and I was looking for a house for myself in 2018. I searched in my emails to find Sheri's contact info and we began my search. Sheri listens and remembers the things I want in a house. She also tells me things to consider while living in the house. For example, the direction the house is facing, which is not something I would've thought about being a first time home buyer. We finally found a home I love in Circle C. Fast forward 3 years, and my significant other and I are searching for a house to start a family. She even remembers HIS preferences and mine. We found a home we love thanks in Cedar Park. She is also helping me rent out my Circle C home. Overall, she's not pushy, she's understanding and patient. She's definitely focused on building relationships and not just to close a deal. She will be the one and only agent I work with for all of my home related needs.

She went the extra mile for sure from knocking on doors in that neighborhood to calling on all her connections . . . and we are in! When we got confused on percentages and payouts, she patiently explained it to us, but then we realized we were in too deep. And instead of blowing the deal, she continued to make shifts and changes on her end to make sure she stayed true to her original word of making our best interests her number one priority! This is a rare find and we are very grateful to her. She made the bewildering process simple and explained things over and over when we were confused. Not only was she helpful through the process but she continues to be helpful and has stayed connected as we have made the transition. She has even found us great babysitters in the neighborhood! We don't only consider her as a knowledgeable and helpful resource in our house buying process but as our friend now too!

I never had any surprises creep up and she was without a doubt (besides my new home) the best part about the home buying process. I would literally recommend her to anyone purchasing, selling or even needing some info about any of the above. I literally cannot wait for my friends to tell me they are looking to buy/sell a home just so I can recommend Claire to them.

Marianne Rodriguez Realtor - Marianne has an amazing work ethic and highly professional throughout…read morethe entire process. Always willing to go the extra mile for my husband and I to ensure we got the answers to our questions and/or concerns. She understood our needs from the beginning so navigating through the buying process was a walk in the park. Even when we threw her some curveballs she went the extra mile to ensure our satisfaction and happiness. Now that the sale of our new home has gone through she is still highly responsive to questions we have about the home and process. The honest truth I was hoping to give her the best review ever since she went above and beyond our expectations regarding her realtor services, but I see that many others have also experienced the same with that said "THANK YOU! So much Marianne" it's been a pleasure to have worked with you through this process. Including all the leg work you did for us to get us closer to setting up utilities, and the solar panel warranty transfer you didn't have to do that but that's who you are an AMAZING REALTOR!!! Gracias! Anyone looking for that one amazing professional to help you sell/buy a home look no further you just found her Marianne Rodriguez!

Working with Marianne to sell our home was a wonderful experience! From the beginning, she was so…read morehelpful & professional. As this was our first time selling a home, we had tons of questions, all of which she answered in ways that were easy to understand. She was very diligent in vetting all of the loan applications for the offers we received, and made the whole process silky smooth. She also recommended several contractors for the work we needed done before listing the house, and each one was affordable & reliable. I will happily refer anyone who is buying or selling a home in the Austin area to her in the future, and definitely plan on hiring her when it's time to buy our next home!

We started our home buying journey with a few realtors referred to us, but for one reason or…read moreanother, they didn't work out. Then we were recommended the Brinkman Team, and right from the start, they were responsive and professional. Choosing them turned out to be a great decision. We were assigned Joelle, and let me just say, she's a vibe for sure! From the first meeting, she was communicative, responsive, and honest. She toured multiple homes with us, pointing out issues like awkward layouts or homes that wouldn't suit us long term. Her honesty and advice were exactly what we needed. We finally came across a home we loved from the pictures and set up a tour. But that same evening, someone put in an offer, and it was showing as pending or active contingent depending on the various apps. This is where Joelle excelled, and I think this is the difference between an okay realtor and a great one. She encouraged us to go see it anyway, explaining that deals can fall through and it doesn't hurt to check it out. When we saw the home, it was by far the best one we'd looked at in our price range. Joelle went to bat for us, reaching out to the listing agent, staying on top of the situation, and sure enough, that buyer's contract fell through. The situation was a bit unusual, involving solar panels, but Joelle navigated it seamlessly. After the inspection, she walked us through every detail, helping us prioritize what to negotiate. In the end, she negotiated $40k off the list price! Nearing the end, the final appraisal came in above the negotiated price which was definitely a huge win for us! I bring all the above up because things can get messy, and you better hope you have a capable realtor to navigate through it. We were so lucky to have Joelle in our corner. Beyond the buying process, she connected us with a property management company for our current home and recommended contractors to prepare the new one before moving in. The only downside was the Compass app the team uses. It lacked functionality, didn't allow favorites in map view, and missed the neighborhoods we were interested in. All the homes we toured came from a different app, and we had to manually add them to Compass to keep Joelle informed. While this doesn't reflect on Joelle or the team directly, it was a bit of a frustration. Overall, Joelle and the Brinkman Team knocked it out of the park. If you're looking for a realtor who's honest, experienced, and client focused, Joelle is the one you want in your corner. Highly recommend!

I felt taken care of, I was empowered with knowledge and informed the whole way through, and I never felt like a burden. I am so grateful to have gone through this process with them.

This team is far and away above and beyond.

I had the opportunity to perform a home inspection for one of Sondra's clients and I must say that…read moreI was very impressed. Sondra's dedication, tenacity and most of all her experience really shone through before, during and after the inspection. Sondra was on the phone with me setting it up, asking all the right questions, ensuring the client chose the right inspector for them and this transaction. Then during the inspection itself she helped resolve an issue with accessibility, working as a liaison between myself and the seller. And afterward she took the findings and rolled them into a package to negotiate with to get the best possible deal for the client. Overall I was very impressed with her ethos and dedication. Well done!

I initially met Sondra through a friend and, long story short, went on what felt like 300 viewings. Sondra never made me feel bad about how obnoxiously picky I am. I lost my nerve after an offer I put in fell through, and I took a break. I met a great guy, who lived too far out of Austin and convinced him to move to Austin to date me (we're married now so it was worth it his time). I hooked him up with Sondra, and boy, I did not make it an easy sale for her. I think I vetoed somewhere in the neighborhood of 10 houses my at the time boyfriend liked (really, they had awful floor plans) and when we finally found the one, we both just knew. Sondra kicked butt during the sale. She asked for things we didn't think about asking that benefited us, and was firm with the seller. There was a lot of fight to put up to get the house but we didn't feel like we had to do any of it ourselves as Sondra was always on it. We never felt neglected, she was always prompt, honest, and excited to help. My now husband enjoyed working with her so much he used her services to sell the property he moved from. We plan to go back to her again once we outgrow this house in the next few years. In all honesty, great realtor aside, Sondra is good people, and that's just as important as anything else. You won't find another realtor like her in Austin.

Neither of us knew much…read moreabout the process, and to be honest, we had a lot of anxiety going into the search because Austin is known as a competitive market. But we were referred to Krystal by friends who saw success working with her, and I'm so thankful we were. Krystal is a super competent, intuitive, and experienced agent. She knows Austin, and she got to know us in order to help us find a place that we loved. (Spoiler alert: We did!). She guided us through every step of the process, making something that at first felt overwhelming to me no big deal. I recommend her to anyone who's looking for a home in Austin!

She was…read moreprofessional yet very relaxed and personable and managed our expectations throughout the entire home buying process. She was always available and on time for showings and never made us feel pressured to make an offer until we found the right home for our family. It truly felt as though we were working with a friend who had our best interest in mind the whole time. Relocating to Austin from New York, it was important to us to work with a realtor who knew the Austin market well and who could help us identify neighborhoods in which we'd feel great about raising a family. Krystal is a native Austinite and was able to thoughtfully guide us and add helpful commentary about things we identified as important to us, i.e. mature trees, proximity to good schools, an inclusive community, etc. We would highly recommend working with Krystal.

But then came Aimee, like an angel to save us and renew faith that we could accomplish this goal. Aimee went above and beyond to ensure we had the support we needed during this process. She commuted distances in LA traffic that no person should have to go through( 70 miles in rush hour is no joke!) She answered all our questions and concerns within a timely manner through text/email/phone call and would always have such insightful information to share with us. Her honesty is what really captivated my husband and I. We knew that we had someone who would be our champion in the real estate version of the Hunger Games! But most importantly, she treated us like family. Aimee was out there making sure we were getting the transparency we needed with this purchase. There were so many things we would mention that we were looking for in a home that when she presented our family with closing gifts, all the gifts had precise details of what we had mentioned. For anyone looking to purchase or sell, Aimee is definitely the person you want to be on your side. We are happy to say we are proud homeowners and it's all in part thanks to Aimee!

She was great about picking homes that were within my budget and what I was looking for in a home. Once I arrived she organized my house hunting quickly as I was on a strict buying time frame. During my house hunting, if I saw something along the way she was able to quickly get a response on availability and appts the same day. I made a decision on one fairly quickly, but she encouraged me to still see my other picked homes to reaffirm for myself that I was comfortable with my choice. I appreciated that so I wouldn't be asking myself later "What if". She was able to achieve a 21-day close for me. Aimee is a one-of-a-kind realtor. She really does have her client's best interests at heart, she worked really hard for me, and I was not left with any surprises in the end. She continued to check in and answered some final questions I had even after the close of my home. I highly recommend her!
