She was able to get me the best rate in such competitive market, but that was not the best thing. Our seller had so many reservations about the VA loan (wanted to sell to someone with conventional loan) but when seller and their agent talked to Lana and asked so many questions, Lana was extremely patient and addressed all their concerns and finally we got our offer accepted just because of Lana Jern. She remains so busy but she or her team-member always found time to respond to any of my questions. 100% would work with her again. Summary: Extremely knowledgeable, puts clients interest at the top, result driven, courteous and friendly

We were so glad that we went with Vista Lending for the mortgage for our condo!…read more From the get-go, Dany collected the information needed to guarantee that our loan would be approved even though we were turned away from other big banks. After we were in contract, Russ, Dany, and their team moved the process along SO quickly and smoothly, that the loan was approved in two weeks! Working with them felt so personal and it felt like I was with friends and not strangers behind the screen or telephone. I highly recommend using local lenders like Vista who can give you that personal touch.

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.

Thank you!!

I am the first renter of a new complex. I moved in & my unit had not been cleaned. It's a brand new…read morebuild so there was a lot of dirt on the floors, debris on carpet, sawdust in my drawers. 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.

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.

Just incredible!!…read more Arien entered into a transaction in light of the fact that a prior lender was struggling to close a very complex deal. Within a mere two weeks, she achieved what the other lender couldn't accomplish in the span of two months. I was extremely impressed by Arien's professionalism, who exemplifies what a banker should be. Based on this wonderful experience, I will be referring to and using Arien as my go-to broker. She is incredibly knowledgeable and experienced, making her an absolute pleasure to work with. She consistently went above and beyond and kept us well-informed throughout the entire process. We were very fortunate to have had the opportunity to work with Arien. Thank you for everything, Arien

From the moment I was put in touch with Arien and Independence Title as my Mortgage lender, she hit…read morethe ground running. Not only did she get things going seemingly immediately, but she also has an amazing quick witted personality. She seemed to always be ahead of the curve with literally everything. She is beyond knowledgeable, and can either answer any question you have at that moment or will find out and get you all the information you need. However, the best part of the entire process was that I felt like I truly did nothing. On occasion I would get an email from Arien with a form for me to sign and return, but there was never any hassle. Her phone calls are always followed up with emails reiterating talking point and just for you to have for your records. From the get go she told me "no news is good news," so I never had to worry about if everything was going accordingly if I hadn't heard from her. 10/10 would recommend Arien and her partners. Also, bc it matters to some people, she is an absolutely gorgeous woman too!!

I am a real estate broker in San Diego, CA and my sister was relocating to Austin so I set out to…read morefind a realtor for her. I generally don't use Yelp for that purpose but on a whim, I opted to check out the reviews. I found several who looked promising and contacted all three. Through telephone/email interviews I narrowed my choice to Joanne. So glad that I did as we only had 2 days to find a house and Joanne and William worked tirelessly the entire weekend. In fact, it was a game day on Saturday and that's a big deal in Texas, but they chose to still work with us. They showed us properties in north, south and central as my sister wasn't familiar with the area and wanted to review all options. It was a successful weekend as she bought a house and even secured a short closing just before the Thanksgiving holiday. Being a realtor I am picky myself, so rest assured you will be in competant hands with the Violet Crown Realty team.

Please note that the below response from JoAnne is dishonest about the relationship between her and…read moreus (renters). We worked very regularly with her on ALL of our concerns with the condo/ maintenance requests throughout the entire 2.5 years as renters of the property (we only worked with the owners on a limited basis to send rent payments) and have the emails to validate this relationship. But nonetheless, it's good to see that this is something they will take seriously and hopefully things change for the better. BEWARE!!!!!!!! PLEASE READ IF YOU PLAN TO RENT FROM OWNERS THAT ARE USING VIOLET CROWN AS THEIR PROPERTY MANAGERS. I worked with JoAnne as the Property Manager for the condo that I was leasing for the past 2.5 years and it was an up and down journey. Sometimes she was really kind (for example, she put together my coffee table and lowered rent for us on behalf of the owners one of the years that we were re-signing as an incentive for us to stay) and other times she would be insensitive (she once yelled at me on the phone because she was having a bad day while I tried to calmly sort out some requests we had for the condo and my roommate recorded this conversation; we were appalled). In addition, she sent passive aggressive emails and we had to do the best we could to bite our tongues. In the words of Maya Angelou - "I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel." I will never forget how JoAnne made me feel. It was not as pleasant of an experience as I had hoped it would have been but there is a silver lining in all of this...my roommates and I got almost our entire security deposit back. I hope this info will help some of you (renters especially) as you consider renting from owners that have Violet Crown Realty as their property managers.
