Beth was amazing at finding off-market homes, and the community we now call home. I was so impressed with Beth's connections and ability to negotiate and have everything managed from offer to close of escrow. I cannot recommend Beth enough - especially in the market we're in. You need a seasoned professional and cannot thank Beth enough for making what we thought would be a stressful process into a very seamless process. Thank you, Beth!

Angaleen is persistent, tireless and fiercely loyal. Knowing we had just arrived in Austin, she…read morereached out to my wife and I a number of times before we were ready to start our real estate search, but it was never with a push or a hard sell -- it was always just a polite reminder that if we needed help she was there. So when we did begin our search, I reached out to her and over the next six weeks, she patiently stuck with us was we film-flammed back and forth between renting and buying and back again. She always made herself available to us whether it be for a call or an impromptu showing we wanted to take in. Her husband Steve, a smart, genial guy who knows his stuff, is also an agent so for the one or two times our schedules just plain collided and we just wanted to check out a place quick, she was able to send him as her proxy. They eventually helped us get into nice little house that perfectly suits our needs. We feel very fortunate to have worked with both Angaleen and her husband Steve and would recommend them to anyone without reservation.

Angaleen is the best! I was a first-time homebuyer and wanted something basically impossible, but…read moreAngaleen was never dismissive or condescending, she took the parameters and ran with them. After more research of the Austin market, I developed more realistic wish list, and Angaleen was great then, too. She was aggressive enough that I succeeded in a multiple offers situation, but appropriately cautious in making sure I understood the comps and the offer itself. She handled a few difficult situations with the sellers on my behalf, keeping me in the loop and deferring to my opinions, but she was so great, I trusted her to make the right moves. In the end, everything worked out perfectly. She's the perfect combination of savvy and friendly, has great relationships with a bunch of helpful people, and I'd absolutely recommend her to anyone.

We were looking for purchasing a home in Austin area and used Barbara as our buyer agent. We are…read morevery happy with the experience and will definitely working with her again. Why we liked working with Barbara (and her assistant, Sierrah): * Barbara knows what we are looking for. During initial phone calls, Barbara really try to understand what we are looking for and use that as criteria to help us looking for homes. The communication was great and we feel we aligned very well on the requirement and criteria. *Barbara is very familiar with Austin area and she is very resourceful. We have been looking for homes on Redfin for months on our own. Then Barbara recommended several homes to us which we overlooked initially but end up better than what we found by ourselves. She also have a great relationship with other agent so was able to get insight before home get onto market. Considering the competitive market at this moment, it really helped us to eventually get the home we bought. * Barbara's assistant, Sierrah is amazing. As a team, Barbara and Sierrah were always available to us and would always promptly respond to email / calls / texts. Sierrah is very dedicated, organized and on top of everything. They are both extreme patient and responsive, not only before the sell, also after we have questions after the sell. What you look for when you choose a realtor may be different for everyone, but we can vouch that with Barbara you will get someone who will do her best to help you sell/buy your home.

I found Nanette through twitter where became online friends. When I started looking for my first…read morehouse the most important thing to me was that I found a realtor who was honest and would hopefully find me a good deal. I also hoped to find someone who would understand my needs. When I was looking for an apartment years ago I saw several realtors who didn't get that when I said "central" I didn't mean 183 and when I said "small complex" I didn't mean just shy of 500 units. When I met Nanette and we started talking about neighborhoods she instantly got exactly what I was talking about. Looking for houses actually was a lot of fun, we would meet at vegan restaurants we were both dying to try and then drive around town listening to music and laughing about a lot of the silly things you find when house hunting. She would listen to me endlessly waver about pluses and minuses and never lost her patience with my indecisiveness. Since I was using an Austin city program for low income people there was also a lot of paperwork and regulations that we had to go through and I was so happy to have Nanette with me through all of that. After I had a really bad experience with the first house I bid on accepting my offer and then later changing their mind Nanette made me realize that it was for the best anyway. And she was right, we still talk two years later about how lucky we were that we didn't end up there. The second bid I put in was also fraught with difficulty because my house was breaking some code violations. Nanette helped me to get the seller to pay for a lot of that, including fixing a leaking shower and retiling the bathroom and walked me through the never ending closing process. The house that I ended up getting is just adorable, and I didn't even realize it when we first looked at it. It was so much nicer than anything I thought I would end up with and with a little paint it has been completely transformed. I am so happy there! And I am so happy to have met Nanette who I now recommend to anyone even considering buying a house. Really, I should ask for a stack of her business cards next time I see her.

This review is regarding my experience with Albert Thong:…read more Albert was absolutely amazing to work with from beginning to end! We were in the market for a rental home within our daughter's school zone within a certain budget (read: this was not a lucrative deal for Albert). He treated us like the most important clients in the world. As soon as we discussed what we were looking for Albert got us set up with an MLS portal so we could see everything that was available and sort through what we were interested in. It even sent automatic updates to our email when anything new was listed or something changed. When we decided to start looking Albert worked around our busy work/school/kids schedule and took us on showings at a time that was convenient for us. Beforehand he would do the research to make sure the houses were compatible with what we were looking for, and were friendly toward our family dog. We ended up applying for one house and then changing our mind and withdrawing the application due to unforeseen complications with the landlord. Albert took us back out AGAIN to find the right place and we ended up closing the deal on the house that was right for us less than 24hrs later. We could have never navigated the crazy Austin market without your help Albert! I will never use another agent and I would send all of my friends and family to you! HIGHLY RECOMMEND

We then entered into the offer stage and her assistance in knowing what was the right price for the units we were looking at and giving us support as we tried to find the right property for a fair price was immeasurable.

Her advice in how to present and stage it was so on point and her patience and updates along the way (since we were obviously anxious) really gave us peace. She also helped us purchase the new home we are now living in and we couldn't have found a better "diamond in the rough" that we can put our touch on. Reinae has given us more great advice there since it's a 100 yr old home. We trust her implicitly and I don't take that lightly with investments of this size.

My house was in TX, but I live in CA. I thought it would be a challenge to deal with the house remotely, but she took care of all the arrangements, including the final walkthrough with my tenants, repairs and renovations. I watched the market for several months prior to listing my house. Interest rates were high, demand was low, and houses in my neighborhood were sitting on the market for weeks and months. But Reinae is an expert in her field, and knew what to do to get the house ready for sale. With her guidance, I decided to make some repairs and update the floors and paint. My house was listed on a Thursday and I accepted an offer (for the listing price) 3 days later. We closed less than a month later. Something I really appreciated is her ability to give me advice without being pushy. She armed me with information and made sure I knew all my options, but she respected my opinion and supported any decisions I made. On the other end of the spectrum, when I needed guidance and someone to help me make decisions, she stepped up and helped me come to a decision with confidence. Lastly, she is a good person. She is a professional woman with a successful business, but there's a lot of heart behind her work.
