Let me first start by saying as people, the Cummings Team seemed nice enough on the surface. Unfortunately for me, I'm basing my review purely on a real estate transaction and my experience dealing with the nightmare that has happened since closing. They seem to have rave reviews when they're representing clients, but I was someone who purchased one of their listings in Leander. A listing that was touted by them on their company letterhead as having a $40k remodel, which to this day no receipts have been furnished to substantiate the claim despite my continued requests. A listing that had major plumbing and waterproofing issues not to anyone's code from a remodel that could only be found once walls could be cut into after we closed. A property that I paid generously well above list price for due to it being move-in ready for my family who will now be staying in an apartment the next month while my home becomes a construction zone and I incur upwards of $10k to have a bathroom completely redone. Even more shocking is the fact that as I knew certain minor repairs would need to be done based on our inspection such as caulking and a securing a staircase, they also tried to profit from that by having Mr. Cummings put in a bid as a general contractor, which honestly feels like a huge conflict of interest to me. As an agent representing clients selling a home, you would think they would vet their clients as much as they did myself as a legitimate cash buyer. You would think they would vet who and how that remodel was done before selling it up as being $40k in value on their brokerage's company letterhead. You would also think that when my agent approached them the other day hoping for help to resolve this, they would want to do everything in their power to help rectify the situation given they are an extension of their clients actions and inactions. Instead, they made excuses that the sellers were too busy moving and unpacking to help provide receipts. They've since pawned off all of the responsibility to the sellers, taking their nice commission and moving on. Forcing me to dip into my 1.5 year old daughter's savings account to help pay for this all so that I don't have extreme water damage later on. In a market such as Austin that has so many qualified realtors, I'd encourage others to think twice before using these realtors, but also heavily questioning the soundness of their claims with any home they're selling. And if you want me to validate my claims with copies of emails, copies of their promotional materials, photos of the construction issues, emails that have gone ignored by the sellers and remodelers, etc... I'm happy to do so as I'm sure these realtors will attempt to justify this situation that I now face. Karma is an incredible thing and to the sellers and Cummings team, it's something that you'll have to live with. UPDATE AS of 3/10/2021: Since the Cummings team wants to not communicate with me directly about these issues, yet they feel compelled to comment on here, I'm happy to add to my review. Literally hours (yesterday) after they finally sent my agent estimates that still don't verify actual costs spent on an improper remodel and that clearly weren't in their possession up until yesterday, they decide to post this? They didn't vet their clients remodel by asking for supporting documents before selling it up as a $40K upgrade on company documents. Fact. The estimates (most were not receipts) they finally provided yesterday still don't add up to the amount they claim by over $15k. And whether they accepted my offer or someone else's as she just mentioned in her response, that still doesn't excuse the fact that someone was about to incur major costs due to their clients and their contractor. Not to mention their reckless promotion of a home's remodel. And no amount of inspection would have caught this until walls were opened up and that shower pan was torn out. Except perhaps had their pre-list inspector actually chose to look under the upstairs vanity to see the exposed plumbing. The fact is the sellers lived in that home during the remodel. They saw what was going on daily. They knew these contractors were not professional plumbers and permits were not pulled, they or the contractors knew this was not done to code. The other fact is you have exhibited zero communication with me except to call and complain to my agent about my negative review and to finally send over partial receipts and estimates so that you could write a response to my review. This all could have been avoided had you or your clients actually wanted to help make this right by putting me in contact with the contractor like Ive been trying to do since this was under contract or at the very least shown some concern over what I now have been left with. Yes, you represented the seller, so that gives you the right to ignore a situation like this? read more

Working with Rebekah and Paul to sell our home and purchase land was the absoulte BEST decision we could have made! We contacted Rebekah around 3 years ago when we thought we were ready to sell our house. From the first meeting with them we were SO impressed. Rebekah and Paul are very professional, extremely knowledgeable and are just down to earth people. We felt so comfortable with them immediately. It turned out that we were truly not ready to sell yet after meeting with them. Over the course of a few years, they were always available when we had questions and gave us guidance to get us ready to sell. They were also very helpful with our land search and it seems like they showed us every piece of land within a 50 mile radius. They were always SO generous of their time and never once rushed us or pressured us into anything. When we decided that we were ready to put our house on the market, they never missed a beat and carried us through the entire process. I really can't imagine a better experience. The market is so crazy right now, but they made the selling process seamless for us. The process can be intense at times and Rebekah and Paul were always there for us. They are experts and very good at what they do. I could really go on and on about how incredible they are!! We are forever thankful for Rebekah and Paul during such an important time in our lives. If you're looking to sell or buy, I have no doubt that The Cummings Team will provide an excellent experience! read more

One of the rudest real estate agents I have ever met. She will not help you out with anything. She will work against you and not for you! Do not waste your time with Rebekah. read more

When we decided to put our home on the market, we had heard from many in our neighborhood how great they were.... but I have to admit, that calling them "great" is simply an understatement. They came to our home and we talked about our plan and how to sell- and the second we closed the door behind them we decided that we had to have them. Rebekah and Paul make you feel like you are their only client. Don't let that fool you though..... they are so busy, but you would never know it as they make you their priority when they are with you. They sold our house in 9 days with multiple full priced offers! They worked amazingly with the buyers and all other parties involved and it was a smooth selling process. When we started looking for our next home, we sent them a photo of our dream home- and within a few hours we had a list of homes that matched our needs and wants PERFECTLY. So perfect that it was really hard to choose! They were so patient with us though- spending TWO FULL DAYS looking with us, and going back to the same homes multiple times, until we knew the one we wanted. Not only have we found our realty team for life, we have gained the most amazing friends that we are so grateful and happy to have found. read more

Helloooo my fellow Texans! Can I just say that if you've ever needed a super motivated, passionate, hard working real estate agent that is always on your side then you will not in the slightest regret working with The Cummings Team. Rebekah and her husband work as an amazing team to help you with everything that you need from how to fix your house for listing, to getting the price you want on your contract. Our home was listed on a Thursday afternoon, and received multiple offers on Saturday morning. That quick! It has truly been an amazing experience working with them, and I am full of confidence when I say that you will feel the same. This post is not sponsored, nor am I getting anything out of this post other than doing what is right: telling the truth and helping my proud Texans. =) read more

What a delight these two are! They introduced us to the Austin area, walked us through the burying process, and advocated for our benefit. They patiently listened to our long wish list and found many homes that fit into our budget and our needs, all the while recognizing our style and preferences. They handles our buying process with enthusiasm, integrity, knowledge, and professionalism. We highly recommend the Cummings team, being impressed with their investment in our situation. We began our relationship with them as clients and continue it as friends. read more

Rebekah and Paul were amazing! They really go above and beyond to make sure you have all the information you need and all your questions answered. As a first time home buyer, this process can be stressful and people can try to take advantage of what you don't know. Thank God I had Rebekah to take good care of me! Thanks a bunch Rebekah! I can't recommend you enough! read more

Rebekah has been the best realtor we could have ever asked for. When we started the home buying process, we had so many requests and requirements that had to be met. Rebekah searched and searched and spent so much time with us until we found OUR HOME. Rebekah didn't see us as a pay check but much more like a friends and even family. She didn't want us to be in a home we weren't 110% happy with. Even after the process, we still keep in touch and she still answers our crazy questions about warranty and such. Rebekah is a go-getter and will get the job more than done! She is awesome and I'm happy to have met her. read more
