Angele has assisted in the purchase of three rental houses and helped me find tenants. She's competent, easy to work with, and I trust her completely. I recently listed my home with her.


Ruth is amazing. She works extremely hard. We have worked with her since we bought our first home. Every house that we own as a home or an investment, she excels in every transaction that takes place. We have learned tons about real estate and Austin from Ruth. In the past, I have worked with other agents to ...


Ruth has now helped me with two home purchases and the selling of one home. In all cases I was able to turn round my home and purchase my new homes in very easy fashion. She was able to step in when needed to create any undue concerns on my part. I have also recommended Ruth to many of my friends and colleagues, all of which have been just as pleased.


We have been working with Ruth E Powers with Realty Austin for about a year on finding a house in North Central Austin. She was great to work with! While it took awhile to find the right property (we were picky), she stuck with us. Ruth was very helpful. I don't know how many times we called on her to show us a listing but she was always there. Ruth is very professional, courteous, knowledgeable and patient. This is the second time we used Ruth in buying a property; the first time was about 12 years ago. We highly recommend her.


Angele was excellent! Very knowledgeable about the real estate procedure and the neighborhoods in Austin. I'd recommend her to anyone looking to buy a home!


Eric was great and referred me to his top agent Crystal who closed 2 homes for me one as a buyer one as a seller. Crystal, you rock! Your team was top notch. You were super professional, easy to work with, getting me the answers i needed and resulting in 2 successful transactions (buyer and seller). I interviewed 3 agents that day you being the last. You are head and shoulders above the rest, cool calm and knowledgeable, very easy to work with. You were responsive throughout the process and your team for interior design consulting/staging were simply stellar. you gave me the exact right amount of inputs for key listing decisions, and were able to handle every curveball I threw with grace. Simply put the experience was amazing, we listed on time and on budget, the place looks beautiful, and we got 5 offers in the first 5 days, at a full 10-15k higher than I would have guessed (your intuition for list price proved to be perfect as well). Finally you helped me navigate offer selection and final negotiation like a pro. We need more teams like yours in this world. Thanks for all you do!


I had the pleasure of working with Vivia Robertson from Bramlett Residential. Throughout the entire process, Vivia demonstrated a high level of professionalism, attentiveness, and efficiency. What stood out most about Vivia was her keen attention to detail. She took the time to carefully listen to my needs and preferences, and worked diligently to find properties that met my requirements. Her insightful advice and guidance helped me to make informed decisions, and she was always available to answer any questions or concerns I had. Vivia's communication skills were also exceptional. She kept me informed every step of the way, and ensured that I fully understood all aspects of the buying process. Her approachable demeanor and friendly attitude made me feel at ease throughout the entire experience. Overall, I would highly recommend Vivia to anyone seeking a professional and knowledgeable realtor. Her dedication to her clients and commitment to excellence make her an asset in any real estate transaction. I am grateful for her assistance and thankful for a smooth and successful home buying experience!


I had a rather non-traditional home purchase experience, living multiple states away from where I wanted to purchase a home. I was initially a bit skeptical of an agent being able to provide a great experience virtually for me, but after talking with Becky Welch, I was confident in her ability to facilitate my unique situation. She provided virtual tours and reached out to the seller on my behalf if I had questions regarding the videos shot. She was extremely patient with me and my specific price point I was willing to pay - even if it didn't quite match market conditions. Throughout the months we worked together, she was easy to get ahold of and communicated frequently about the market, and when it came time to finally put an offer, walked me through the entire process so I understood every major beat we would encounter. Finally, as I was unable to attend the final walk-through inspection - she provided a very thorough video of the property, complete with issues that she found which may have deviated from when the original offer was made. As a whole, I couldn't have been happier with Becky and expect to work with her again in the future!


Jeremy Vandermause was our realtor when we sold our Austin home in August 2022, and we could not have been happier with the entire process. This was the first time we had sold a home, and Jeremy and his team held our hand through each step. We felt totally at ease that no balls were being dropped. Since we had already purchased another home and moved out of state, this was a huge relief. Jeremy even stopped by our house to work out an issue with the painters we'd hired to prepare our house to sell. He went above and beyond!

We ended up getting and accepting a pre-market offer, and Jeremy went out of his way to make sure we were getting the absolute best price for our house. Jeremy is on top of every task, as well as being knowledgeable and tapped into the Austin market. Couldn't have asked for a smoother experience!


Elizabeth was an absolute pleasure to work with. She has outstanding knowledge of the market and ended up getting me a great deal in a tough buyers market. Along the way she was super responsive and able to answer any questions. Also very helpful for me in first homebuying experience as there were a lot of unknowns about the process.


Elizabeth was absolutely perfect and went above and beyond to find us our condo. We are really grateful for her and are already referring her to our friends and family. She will be our first phone call for any real estate purchases in our future.


Elizabeth was awesome to work with! As a first time home buyer, she was able to explain the process clearly and professionally, from our first meeting, all the way through closing. She was very communicative and we never felt we were left in the dark. She fought for us when we needed her to fight for us, and her advice was invaluable. She absolutely excels at navigating the Austin real estate market.

She was also able to recommend a great lender, insurance agent, etc., which made it feel like we had a whole team working for us. I'd recommend working with Elizabeth to everyone I know.


My boyfriend and I wanted to move to the Austin area and were looking to rent a home. We were introduced to Elizabeth through a mutual friend and we knew immediately she’d be amazing to work with. She took the time to do a consultation with us and set up a search through a real estate portal. We found a listing we liked and the very next morning Elizabeth met us at the property to view it. Within 48 hours, we signed a lease on our dream home! She is always available and professional and we recommend her highly!


Wow! I wish I were as good at my job as Elizabeth is at hers. Seriously, Elizabeth will not let you down. Buying a home can be a remarkably intimidating process but a great Realtor, like Elizabeth, will make it easy for you. I'm very happy I had Elizabeth on my corner and I can't recommend her enough.


Elizabeth has helped me find a home not once, but twice! She’s incredibly responsive and communicative- Both times I’ve worked with her, she has prioritized what I’m looking for, been super realistic and honest, and is always my advocate. I’m so grateful for her hard work!

Elizabeth helped me on a long journey of finding my perfect home, and I'm so grateful she was by my side for it all. During the search process, she was wonderful about answering all my first time home buyer questions, gave me realistic advice on how to approach any house I was interested in, and really helped me prepare for the competitive home buying process in Austin. Once under contract, I had a really long delay to close on my new construction. She was so helpful the entire time and was a strong advocate for me when closing got delayed. In the end, I was able to close on my dream house, and she made the entire process painless. I have and will continue to recommend her to all my friends!

 


Elizabeth is AMAZING!!! She went above and beyond to secure me an absolutely beautiful home. HIGHLY recommended.


Elizabeth is an incredible realtor! She helped our little family sell our east side condo for a RECORD-BREAKING sale price, and invested countless hours of blood, sweat, and tears walking us through the entire process from getting the house ready to list through closing. She is responsive day and night, and answered all of our many questions. She truly went above and beyond - we are so thankful for her help! We cannot recommend her services enough.


Kasey Gilliam was very professional and communicated through the whole home buying and searching process. highly recommend working with her. She has great expertise in Austin and lead very helpful with all of our home buying questions and concerns!


I have been thoroughly pleased with my experience with Bramlett Residential and my realtor Tyson Hombroek. Tyson provided outstanding service in helping me with the sale of my house. He is very professional and on top of the market. We stayed in constant communication and he was helpful in answering all my questions I had. This was a great experience. I highly recommend them.


We worked with Julie Stoakley to purchase a home since moving back from Florida. We were impressed with her knowledge of the incentives and mortgage strategies. We never felt lost in communication on where we stood in the buying process. We purchased a home with an incentive and with her knowledge we were able to obtain clarity and an understanding for it. She also helped us in negotiating repairs from the inspection process and were able to get a brand new roof! I would definitely recommend Julie to my friends and family!


I have worked with Robin on multiple properties, both buying and selling, and I would highly recommend her to anyone in need of a realtor. She has gone above and beyond every time and her attention to detail makes it a seamless process. If you are looking for a realtor with a strong track record who knows how to navigate every situation, this is absolutely the person to work with.


This is the second time I have worked with Robin, and this is the second time she has found my dream home! Robin always answered my questions and helped me fully understand the process of buying a home. She's an amazing realtor and very professional. She is also a wonderful person that truly has a desire to help clients find the perfect home for them. I highly recommend Robin and her team. They are a fantastic team that are making dreams come true!


We had Nancy Guilloteau help us during our search to rent a home in our dream neighborhood.

She was such a pleasure to work with every step of the way. She's punctual, friendly, and very knowledgeable .

Even though we had high aspirations, and the market was even tougher than we expected, her fast responses and persistence got us to the top of the application list.

We are so glad she was recommended to us, and I think anyone, buying or renting, would benefit from seeking her out too.


We are looking to relocate from CA to TX and was looking for a reliable local agent in TX to help us through the process. I called Eric Bramlett Real Estate after reading all the raving reviews on Yelp. Patrick Hallett was the one I got connected with and he had been such help for me throughout the entire house hunting process. The welcome to the neighborhood emails have been really informative and the regular newsletters give us a good idea and keeps us up to date on the current market situations. He is punctual, professional, responsive, and always ready to help. Since we are still in CA in the process of moving, many things had to be done remotely. Patrick was really my boots on the ground and helped me to take videos tours of houses, live stream the new home orientations and communicate with the builder's rep to ensure the process go as smoothly as possible. He's even helping to pick up the keys and hold on to them until we get there. I am happy to say that the house closed on time and everything went without hiccup. Thank you Patrick for such wonderful service!


Joe Gage and the Bramlett team helped us get our house ready to sell while we were traveling abroad and the house was leased. No small feat working and coordinating with our tenant/property manager and various service providers to install a new roof, paint exterior of the house, and make sundry repairs. Joe had the house listed within 3 weeks of our tenant's departure and multiple offers were recieved the first weekend on the market. Fantastic communications and attention to details. Thank you, Joe!


Linda Baddour was incredible throughout the entire home buying process! We were relocating to Austin from out of state and did not have a realtor in mind. I researched a great number of real estate companies and decided to go with Bramlett Residential. Linda called me within 10 minutes of filling out the online questionnaire! I knew we were in great hands from our first conversation. Her knowledge of the Austin area and housing market is absolutely amazing. She found us the perfect home in best area of Austin for us. Her communication throughout the entire process was unparalleled. Linda would respond to emails, text, and phone calls within minutes. Not only did she find us the perfect house, she was crucial throughout the inspection process and has a great deal of connections with trusted inspectors throughout the Austin area. I can't imagine having a smoother home buying experience and we are so thankful for Linda! We highly recommend Linda to anyone buying a home in the Austin area!


Robert has provided the best experience looking for the property we closed on. He was there and responded promptly all the time to any questions we had. He also provided a lot of great advice for what we were looking for.


Craig played a pivotal role in helping us get into our new home. He went above and beyond in communicating directly with our builder on ways to bridge the gap between the sale of our current home and the purchase of our new one. He attended each and every meeting with our builder, and made sure to point out areas we hadn't even considered. We felt we were truly in great hands with Craig, and it couldn't have been a more enjoyable or seamless experience. We would absolutely work with Craig again. He is extremely professional, trustworthy and looks out for your best interest.


The height of the Austin market in 2021 was obviously a great time for sellers. My positive experience with Abby goes beyond the way above asking price she secured for us. We had been putting off selling our first home because getting it market ready seemed like something we didn't have time for, and honestly I didn't know where to start. We no longer lived there and the renters had left their mark. Abby came in and quickly assessed what repairs would give us the largest return on our investment and then secured reputable, reliable people to handle those repairs. She managed the process without incident and the next thing we knew she was presenting us with 5 vetted, above asking price offers. She made a seemingly overwhelming process we had been avoiding effortless and we walked away with a huge return on our investment. I cannot say enough good things about Abby. She will be handling all of our real estate transactions and I recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell in Austin.


Abby was on top of it. She helped me negotiate terms and price, and she helped me close the deal quickly. This took many calls back and forth - even on a holiday weekend. Perfect.


I was referred to Nancy Guilloteau at Bramlett Real Estate by a coworker who had a great experience working with her for a rental property in the ever-exclusive Clarksville. My fiance and I then decided to reach out for finding our own rental in Hyde Park for our growing family. Nancy truly went above and beyond for us! Besides knowing the ins and outs of Austin real estate trends and the market, she always stayed on top of the listings to get us in the door first and keep our applications in front of any owners. Nancy's guidance also came through when reviewing final contracts and negotiations, showing how much she really had our best interest at heart. We hope to be able to call on her again soon when buying our first home!


I bought my first home on the East side of Austin while working with Zoe Wafelbakker a few months ago, and I had an excellent, seamless experience. Zoe was always available to answer questions (and I had many) and her Austin real estate expertise and interpersonal skills are top-notch. She handled the few minor issues and hurdles we faced with ease and grace which meant the buying process was fairly stress-free for me, and we never had to deal with full-on problems.

I highly recommend Bramlett and Zoe if you are looking to buy a home in Austin and would like to work with someone who really understands the market and its players and maintains excellent relationships with the other agents in town.


I couldn’t have been happier with our experience in working with the Dochen REALTORS® team. They are very professional and responsive and met every need we had throughout the selling process. This was our fifth interstate move, and the Austin side of the move was one of the smoothest we experienced.


When we were looking for a condo for our college kids, Dana was relentless in helping us find a place in our price range that still met all of our other needs. She suggested all kinds of creative tactics since it was completely a seller’s market at the time; we wrote to condo owners in the area letting them know we are interested in buying their property; we wrote letters of introduction with our offers; and we looked at places along the bus route to find something that would work both in college and after graduating. The last tactic worked! We found a fabulous place in an area that works as a student and as a graduate — and it was less than what we would have had to spend closer to campus. Thankfully, the kids are graduated and now paying their own rent and want to stay put in a place that Dana made sure was suitable for the long term. I highly recommend Dana for buy or selling because she has integrity, she listens, and she works hard for you.


Arlene and her team were absolutely tremendous! I already knew she was great from word of mouth but we got to witness it first hand. Everything we asked for and needed was met immediately. There was never a day where we felt alone in the process and we were always in close contact with other amazing professionals that Arlene recommended. We couldn’t have been happier during the buying process and we just love our new home. Arlene Maze was perfect!​


I don’t know even where to start. Arlene Maze is aMAZE…ing. I was a first time home buyer and was very overwhelmed with the buying process. She welcomed me to her office and explained the whole process in great detail patiently. She made me feel like she wanted to truly help me find my dream home, not sell me something for the money. Arlene is not a pushy saleswoman, she is a good listener, is considerate of others, knowledgeable, and makes you feel like she is family. She is very well known in the Austin community and will find you a home that is a smart purchase, safe, and perfect for you. She made my home-buying process so enjoyable and I would highly recommend her.


Over the past six years, Dochen Realtors helped three couples in our family purchase Austin homes that were just right for each of them. Carol’s team listened to, and honored, my family’s unique needs and budget at every step. The agents’ prodigious expertise was especially helpful. Their negotiating skills and high integrity enabled each family to get their offer accepted on the home they most wanted, despite the insanely competitive housing market. Dochen REALTORS® has earned our family’s complete trust. On behalf of eight family members, we recommend Dochen REALTORS® without reservation to anyone who is looking to buy or sell a home in Austin.


Dana will always make herself available to clients and is generous with her time. She’s very knowledgeable, experienced and diligent. Dana is passionate about helping people find a place to call home.


Carol Dochen is simply the best realtor in Austin. Apart from her obvious qualifications, she truly cares for her clients and works tirelessly to get the best for them. We have worked with Carol on three homes, two of which we sold, and one we bought. For the homes where she was the seller’s agent, we had multiple offers – within a day of listing on MLS. When we moved away from Austin, Carol handled everything that went into getting the home ready for sale, supervised contractors, and even took the trouble to have our ATandT equipment taken to a FedEx office for return! Warm and caring, always going the extra mile. More than just a realtor, I am honored to call Carol a friend. We will miss her expertise and friendship out here in CA.


Can't say enough great things about this amazing realtor team! From the initial start of getting into the home buying process to close, Jen and her team made this absolutely seamless for us. We were first-time homebuyers and weren't sure what we were getting ourselves into, but Jen, Rachel, and David walked us through every step to help us better understand the entire process from start to finish.


Rachel and David did a fantastic job making sure we had all of our appointments booked and had information on the homes we were interested in, in advance. I appreciated their dedication of continuously checking in on us and making sure we had all of our questions answered. We never felt pressured while working with the Berbas team, which we truly appreciated. When it came to finding our first home, David was extremely helpful in getting our offer ready. He was super flexible and made himself available to us whenever we needed it. Rachel was equally wonderful -- super organized, quick to answer questions, and ensured we moved through the home buying process very quickly.


Overall, the process couldn't have been more smooth (and quick!). We were able to close on our home in just three weeks with the help of this team. For that, we are so grateful and highly recommend the Berbas Group to anyone looking to buy a home.


We recently had the pleasure of working with Linda Baddour when purchasing our new home. Throughout the entire home-buying process, she displayed remarkable knowledge, expertise, and attention to detail. She took the time to understand our preferences, needs, and budget, ensuring that every property we viewed was a potential fit. Her extensive knowledge of the local housing market and real estate trends proved invaluable in guiding us toward making informed decisions. We felt supported throughout the process. I cannot express enough appreciation for Linda's dedication and commitment. Thank you!


When moving to Austin, my fiancé and I wanted to buy a house and found the Jen Berbas team. After some consideration, we decided not to buy right away. Instead of dropping us, the Berbas team amazingly helped us find a beatiful place to rent even though they didn't have to. Two years later, my fiancé and I were ready to buy. Of course we called the Berbas team. Buying a house with them was so easy. They walked us through every process and educated us every step of the way. They of course made sure we made every deadline and made sure we signed ever document that was needed. We of course closed on time! We could not have asked for a better realty team. When the time comes that we want to sell and buy another place, we are not going to hesitate to call the Jen Berbas team. I 100% recommend them!


Kasey Gilliam did a great job helping us sell our house - She really had a ton of expertise in the Austin market and also the overall selling/buying process. She was very helpful in walking us through each step of the selling process and negotiating with the buyers. She was always quick to respond to a text or email and made sure we stayed informed throughout the entire experience.


Brooke provided incredibly helpful insights with the upmost professionalism. I am incentivized to use a realtor for the company I work for, but I was going to buy a year ago and got a mediocre service. After talking to Brooke, I knew her knowledge and professionalism are far more valuable than the benefits I’d get if I had worked with someone else who isn’t as good as her. She provided guidance but never pressured to buy or even pushed for a house in particular. Homes in certain areas another realtor a year ago called “sketchy” with a look of disgust in her face without backing up her opinion with facts (not knowing if maybe I come from a similar place, or that’s what I can afford so her comment could make me feel uncomfortable). Brooke, on the other hand, gave insights on price comps in that same area, quality of the construction and appliances, the soil situation, etc., so we decided not to buy in that area, but she did that in such a professional and impartial way that is quite impressive. Brooke helped us negotiate with the seller and we ended up getting a home we love. She explained every step of the process very clearly, is quick to respond over text/email and her responses are very well researched. I highly recommend working with Brooke.
