We have used Suzanne and Barton Hills Mortgage 4 times. I think the best part of our experience was…read moreSuzanne treating us like family. My wife and I were home buying novices (and eventual refinance rookies as well). Each time, she was such an incredible resource to us. Each time Suzanne has been fast, thorough, and thoughtful. There may be a lot of options for possible mortgage brokers, but if you want to really be taken care of - go with Suzanne and her team at Barton Hills Mortgage.

New to Austin and did not know where to start with looking for a good mortgage broker. My wife and…read moreI met her husband Scott who we used as our Realtor. Scott's recommendation for Suzanne was 'she's the hardest working broker out there', and indeed she was. Aside from that I saw her reviews on Yelp and we talked for at least an hour and clearly she is prepared to explain what a good broker should do for their client. Suzanne really knows this business and has weathered the storms of real estate. Emails and phone calls were always quickly returned. We we able to close our loan in 20 business days - amazing. Might have been faster if I had gotten forms back to her quicker. It was also great to work with a husband/wife team. Scott is an incredible Realtor and we had complete faith that he would find us the right house and handle the negotiations professionally.

**Update - 12/2025** Reinae helped us sell the original home…read morewe bought in South Austin and went all the way to help us get top dollar for it. 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. If she's available and able to help you, don't miss out on working with her.

Reinae is the best Realtor I have ever worked with! I usually find real estate transactions really…read morestressful, but the recent sale of my house went incredibly smoothly. 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.

We had a great experience working with Carson at Bramlett Partners as our buyer's agent! As…read morefirst-time homebuyers, there was a lot we didn't know, but Carson patiently guided us through the entire process and answered every question we had. During negotiations, he helped us put together a competitive offer when the seller was being difficult. He also helped with last-minute closing cost adjustments that saved us some money out-of-pocket, and has continued to answer our questions even after closing. We really appreciated his help through the process!

Carson was my buyer's agent when I was a first-time homebuyer, and I had a fantastic experience…read moreworking with him. He helped me sort through my priorities and ultimately find exactly the house I was looking for. Over the years, we regularly kept in touch about the market and my home's value. When it came time for me to move, there was no question that I wanted Carson to be my seller's agent as well. His advice on pre-sale preparation and pricing made a real difference. We received an offer within two weeks, while many other units in my development had been sitting on the market much longer, even after price adjustments. Having an experienced, knowledgeable agent like Carson guiding me through both buying and selling made all the difference. I would absolutely recommend him.

I had shopped multiple lenders looking for the best rate and someone that would advise me on the…read morebest path. It wasn't even a competition between the lenders, Leahy lending was by far the best. I worked with James on a refinance and he advised me as if it was his own home. The other lenders were obviously just trying to rush through the process and just get it closed, but James at Leahy Lending took the time to actually tell me the pros and cons of different paths and advise me on the best way to meet the goals that I wanted out of the refinance. I would highly recommend Leahy Lending to help with a new home or refinance. They can make a very confusing and process approachable and easy to understand.

Incredibly Honest and Trustworthy Realtor…read more I can't say enough good things about my experience with Paul Reddam. Most agents are eager to close a deal, but he took the time to truly understand my situation and gave me advice that wasn't in their own immediate interest--they actually told me not to sell. After evaluating the market and my financials, Paul explained that selling right now would likely lead to a loss and wasn't the smartest move for me. That level of honesty and integrity is rare, and it's something I deeply respect and appreciate. It was clear that he genuinely had my best interests at heart rather than just trying to make a sale. If you're looking for someone who will be upfront, ethical, and truly on your side, I highly recommend Paul. I'll absolutely be working with him again when the time is right! --Danny N.

I had such a smooth experience working with Paul and Marquette to sell my rental home. They told me…read moreat the outset what to expect, what challenges we'd need to address, and how long the process would take--predictions that all proved to be spot on. Marquette had a great instinct for who would be interested in buying the home then helped me attract them. She gave solid advice on what repairs were and weren't needed and how to stage everything, and then wrote marketing materials that showcased the home beautifully. Once the house was ready to list, we sold quickly to pretty much exactly the type of family Marquette predicted, and for the price I expected. Paul and Marquette communicated promptly and clearly throughout and got me through the process with minimal stress and no surprises. I'd recommend Homesville to any buyers or sellers.

Justyn LeFebvre and the team at Strub are the best in the business. Justyn mobilized a team that…read moredid painting, repairs, pictures, advertising, staging and listing. His operation was so smooth, that by the time we listed, we had offers waiting. His pricing was perfect to create interest but also right in the sweet spot to bid up. Our home in Travis Heights was sold in less than a week and I still can't believe the final sales price. Side note: After staging, I considered keeping the house as an Airbnb, but the price was too good.

Mark truly did an amazing job on selling our duplex! Our property was a unique one, and he was…read morequickly able to assess the best way to market it. As a former salesperson myself, I marveled at how well he managed us, the buyers, and the whole process. He truly took it all on, and we were able to be way less stressed and less burdened than any other real estate deal. In fact, after working with about 6 realtors in other transactions, I would definitively say he was the absolute best! Truly a gem. I will recommend him to friends and family for a long time!

We've decided to consult with an attorney. We never pay anything late, and our FICO is o er 800. They are scam artists.

We have rats in the dryer due to their being no vent covers in the house (per the person they sent) now they say it's our issue. We went 3 weeks without laundry because the electrical panel was rusted and the breaker caused the whole house to lose power multiple times. It takes weeks to get updated, if you get any at all. Never rent a property with them, you'll be living with leaks, mold and rats . They also sent the most unqualified people to try and fix things.

Cleaners came 3 weeks after move in & vacuumed, mopped the floors, cleaned toilets and changed trash. They were there for less than an hour. After move in, they changed my house number. No notice was given, no lease amendment was signed prior to change. I found out when I got back from visiting family. I then was told "It's not a big deal just call the companies to get everything fixed on your bills". it took an entire morning (4+ hours) to get things fixed, with no compensation. I still do not have my mail key and I have been here 3+ weeks. Every time I ask, they tell me to go to USPS & it's not their responsibility. I went to USPS and they did not have the keys which I told were dropped off. Still no mail. Overall, not a great first impression. I am military & move around a lot. I would not recommend this property management to future movers. I love the builder, Maurice. He is very kind & attentive, he's actually assisted more with the utility switches than anyone. The place is great, minus all of the things listed above. Moving across the country starting over again at a new duty station, this has been less than ideal. Very much added stress that could have been avoided. I believe they moved me in way too early. ******** Within an hour of posting this, they did reach out to me and were incredibly professional & attentive to my feedback. I was assured it was taken seriously, so I do believe these issues will be completely resolved for the next tenant.

Tera worked with my wife and me very closely through the entire loan and closing process. We are first-time home buyers, and she always took the time to walk us through everything in a very clear and easy to understand way. She's a great communicator, and we definitely appreciated her patience with us! Also, she is an incredibly hard worker and had super fast turn around times for anything we needed. She was very responsive, and kept us in the loop at every stage of the process. We knew we were in good hands with Tera, and we are so very thankful we had the opportunity to work with her. We couldn't have asked for a more positive experience. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you Tera!!! You're the best.

They did a horrible job selling my home-left everything on us including setting up the lockbox and…read moreputting up the for sale sign. Did not come and look at the house even once until the night before it went up on MLS. We sold our home quickly-1 weekend. We asked them to find a home for us to buy while we prepared our home for sale. Moxie realty was unable to find one home to show us during the entire contract period which was over a month. When my husband and I found a home for sale on our own during the weekend our home went on sale, our moxie realtor could not bother herself to show it to us as she was on vacation over the weekend. Yes, you read that right. She went on vacation the day our home went on the MLS. She was too busy to arrange for someone in her company to show it to us. Additionally, when we brought to her a home we found on our own, she put in an offer on our behalf. Unfortunately, she screwed up and stated it was a va loan instead of a conventional loan. In a sellers market, va loans are not competitive as they require more stringent inspections. We lost out on this home even though we were the highest bidder. The broker stated that we didn't lose out because of the Moxie realtor, but because the other bidder knew the selling agent. The best part of this whole fun fest was when the owner/broker yelled at me when we told her we would not be repairing anything on the home we sold since we had 2 backup offers and it was a sellers market. Our garage door stopped working during the weekend we sold our home. Instead of representing our interests and backing up our decision, she raised her voice and berated us as she thought the deal would fall through. We forwarded a tape of her interaction with us where she raised her voice to a competitive company who now uses this as an educational tool on what not to do to your client- Their annual Ethics class. The broker/owner offered me $4k to sign a nda-non disclosure agreement to keep my mouth shut on their horrible business ethics, but decided my freedom of speech was worth more. If you want a great realtor, contact Tara Biesboer in New Braunfels. She helped us find our current home and executed the purchase without any problems. Avoid Moxie Realty at all cost.
