We had talked to lender after lender in hopes of relocating to Texas. Time and time again, we were…read moretold that our situation was just too complex. We were referred to Emily and her team by our agent, and we were SO impressed by their responsiveness, patience, and professionalism! We were able to do what other lenders said we could not because of how dedicated Emily + her team was. We now live in our dream home, and I refer all my loved ones to her because she is someone I trust 100% to do an incredible job. Also, I'm an agent so I have had my fair experience of working with lenders, and Emily and her team are simply THE best, hands down.

We looked at multiple lenders and found plenty of good options, but his straightforward and direct approach was exactly what we needed to get to the bottom line and move forward. He patiently answered our endless questions and never made us feel like a burden. When our overseas location created a nightmare for signing the closing paperwork, he worked tirelessly to find a local signing solution that saved us over $1,300 in extra digital notary fees the title company was trying to charge us! Going through such a massive life transition is hard, but having someone in our corner who genuinely cared about our family's future gave us so much peace of mind, and we couldn't be more grateful.

When I first called her she made me feel like family and we talked like family catching up lol instead it was of me telling her how I was ready to purchase my first home. Buying a house is a big step and a lengthy process. A couple of times I got discouraged and she was right there to lift my spirits back up and encourage me to keep pushing. I'm truly blessed to be working with Ms.Rosenie and would most definitely recommend her to anyone seeking real estate information whether it be to buy or to sell. Thank you for being such a helpful and wonderful agent!

This is my first experience with this business. Blaga is not very pleasant to work with. The first…read moretime that I called she seemed irritated and reluctant to give me information on a current listing that she is managing. I tried calling a few times after my initial call and got no response. Then I try to drop off the application fee check and she is not at the office, the office is locked in fact. I called her 5 times, no response. I finally text her and her response is harsh and uncalled for. She then proceeds to call me rude because I called to ask questions about the property. She seems annoyed that I have questions and are refusing to answer them. The owner should be aware that such an aggressive and rude person is managing their property.

We had an excellent experience with Blaga. I was in Florida on vacation when I received an offer…read morefor a job I had interviewed for in Austin. The catch was I started the job in two weeks. We were calling real estate agents from our condo trying to look at homes. Out of dozens of calls, two agents called me back. That's how I met Blaga. Unfortunately, the house we wanted to see was already gone. However, she agreed to meet with us to show us rental houses over a 24-hour period on Easter weekend. She showed us homes, helped find us a good fit for us and our dogs, negotiated some details on the pets for us, and we signed the lease and were on our way. I was so impressed with the service and skills that when it came time to buy a home, I asked her to be our representative. She found us a wonderful home in a beautiful neighborhood that was at a great price. The home she suggested didn't impress me on the Internet but she took us through the house and showed us what the ad didn't. With her help, our bid (one of three) was the winning bid, despite not being the highest. She then helped us negotiate an early exit to our lease so we could close on the house, and she did it with such grace that afterwards, the landlord asked her to manage the property for him. I would recommend her without reservation to anyone looking for a good real estate professional who knows the Austin market inside and out and has really amazing insight on matching people to places.

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.

Sheri came to look at my now ex husband's house and recommended we just make it the way we want given how much a new house would cost. From that day, I felt Sheri was extremely honest and trustworthy. She could've recommended that we sell it and be our seller and buyer agent. Fast forward 4 years, and I was looking for a house for myself in 2018. I searched in my emails to find Sheri's contact info and we began my search. Sheri listens and remembers the things I want in a house. She also tells me things to consider while living in the house. For example, the direction the house is facing, which is not something I would've thought about being a first time home buyer. We finally found a home I love in Circle C. Fast forward 3 years, and my significant other and I are searching for a house to start a family. She even remembers HIS preferences and mine. We found a home we love thanks in Cedar Park. She is also helping me rent out my Circle C home. Overall, she's not pushy, she's understanding and patient. She's definitely focused on building relationships and not just to close a deal. She will be the one and only agent I work with for all of my home related needs.
