Kent gets 10 stars on my scale but Yelp caps me at 5. I have worked with many RE agents primarily in CA and CT. This home purchase was my first experience in TX and in Austin's hot seller's market to boot! I knew I needed someone who would have detailed knowledge of the vagaries of the local Austin market and who could act quickly and calmly when the right property came on the market. He's a clear communicator and was responsive at all times. I'm a hands-on type of buyer and especially liked that he allowed me access to the listings and the ability to edit my search parameters. This saved us both of us an enormous amount time in narrowing the search. Once I had a short list, Kent stepped in and skillfully structured offers in this seller's market which avoided overbidding but ended up being the one that was chosen over the other offers. Kent is versatile and has many options on how to present something to seller's that is appropriate for each particular situation. His diplomacy, timing and knowing just the right approach at the right time was spot on for dealing with the seller's agents. As an example, just a hour before closing the seller's still had not produced a letter explaining part of the transaction they agreed to weeks before. Kent politely and professionally let them know we would sign all documents but would not authorize the funds to be disbursed until the letter was produced. The promised letter showed up within 20 minutes! I would not hesitate to recommend Kent to any of my friends or family as he and his team made the home buying experience in this hot market as smooth and successful as possible. He stands out as the best of the best by being highly organized, professional and efficient. I am privileged to have had him negotiating on my side and it was truly a great experience working with him throughout the whole process. Thanks Kent! read more

My relationship with Kent's firm began when I moved my family to Austin and needed a reasonable place to rent for a year while looking for a home to purchase. I was connected with Kent's team and he quickly found a 3/3 single family home in great shape for a great price in a safe neighborhood. Throughout our lease, Kent kept in contact with us and when we were ready to buy - the decision to work with him again was an easy one. Kent took time out of his day on WEEKENDS to show us multiple properties per day in order to meet a rather strict move out timeline. After each showing, Kent patiently helped us narrow our requirements down to the best sector of the city. At every step of the way, Kent was proactive, bold, and took initiative when it was appropriate which made our timeline far more manageable. We were able to leverage his trusted network of contacts and each of our interactions with the inspector, title company, and mortgage company were professional and well organized. Despite a short timeline and a competitive market, we quickly closed on an amazing home in a beautiful neighborhood with zero reservations thanks to Kent's tenured guidance, professionalism, and experience. My recommendation to anyone looking for a purpose driven, passion led, and people focused real estate team: Call Kent! read more

Highly likely to recommend Kent Redding is a more than a realtor. We used him for the sale of our current home and the purchase of our new home. When we thought it was time to sell, we called Kent. He met with us. Gave us direction and recommendations for getting our current home on the market. He listed our home and the online photos were fabulous. We had a solid offer and were able to go forward with the our new home purchase. Kent really got to know us and helped us pick out a home that would fit all of our needs. He was generous with his time and with his knowledge. He made what could have been a very stressful transition easier on us. I know we wouldn't have closed on our current home as quickly as we did without his knowledge. And, I also know that we wouldn't have been able to purchase our current home without his expertise. I know that I can still call Kent if I need a recommendation for service or just for help. Thank you Kent for making our new home a reality read more

When my wife and I decided to sell our home, we called the one person we trust to take good care of us, Kent Redding. Kent responded quickly to our request to meet and go over the steps to make our home ready to list. He and his crew were there beside us each step of the way. His calm demeanor and reassuring conversations kept us on track and on schedule. We were ready when we put the home on the market and close a few days later with an offer that met our needs. Kent walked beside us through each step of the contract process and guided us through the closing. Kent went the extra mile and helped us find our future home, which we have been in for one year. If you are considering selling your home, call Kent, you will thank yourself later for trusting the one man who can take good care of you and walk with you through those difficult times. read more

Kent not only helped us find the perfect house, but was available for all of my constant questions and provided sound advice. My fiance and I were purchasing our first home, so we needed plenty of guidance, which Kent provided. In addition to being responsive, helpful, and providing market insights, Kent is a family-oriented and kind person. I respect his character and will recommend him as a realtor to my friends as they embark on buying their first homes. I am very thankful for his expertise and assistance to help us find our home. I noticed that other reviews mentioned that Kent was not responsive during certain times. This was not my experience at all. Kent assisted us even on the weekend when we were making an offer and was very transparent about certain times when he might have a delayed response. read more

Kent and his team have always been an absolute pleasure to work with throughout the many years we have known them. Kent is kind, hard-working, patient, and throughly intuitive when it comes to the details and strategies of buying or selling a home. In purchasing our most recent home, Kent was able to negotiate several thousand below asking. This was absolutely unheard of during the peak of the real estate market, and in one of the most sought after neighborhoods where multiple cash offers was the norm. But that isn't the only amazing example of his skill and great customer service. After we renovated two investment properties, Kent was able to sell both at record highs for their neighborhoods. Without a doubt, we will only trust Kent's capable hands when it comes to our real estate needs! read more

Kent was wonderful to work with! I was originally trying to sell my house for Sale by Owner but kept running into multiple roadblocks. Kent took the time to sit down and talk about what I had been doing, what I wanted to accomplish and how he could help. And I am so grateful he did help! He let me have as much or as little control once we moved forward. I really appreciated this. Kent made the selling process appear seamless! His communication was prompt and thorough. I had full confidence the entire time that he had my best interest in mind. Even when it came to the negotiating portion of the process, he gave me great advice, but ultimately was supportive of any decision I made. I would definitely use Kent again and recommend him to anyone who is in the market to buy or sell. read more

In the past 6 years I have used 5 agents to buy, sell, and rent out properties. Kent is without a doubt the most competent and best realtor that I have had. I used him as a seller's agent. He has a system in place that markets your home very effectively and maximizes the amount of people looking at your home. He very clearly explained the process, what needed to happen at each step, what I needed to do at each step, and then he aggressively markets it. Overall, I was extremely pleased with his system. I would recommend Kent to anyone, but especially people who have worked with one or two agents in the past, because it will be a revelation as to what a good agent is supposed to do. If Kent is your first agent, the bar will be set for future agents to live up to. read more

Kent was amazing. We listed our house in Eanes with him because we knew he was one of the top in the area. He's not one of the top... he IS AT the top....he was professional and right on the mark for every step of the process. He managed all those details that needed managing to get the house in shape so the buy would fall in love. He created amazing marketing materials (at one point I wondered whose house was in that virtual staged photos...they looked so good). He kept his finger on the pulse of the market and kept us informed. He recommended a price that ultimately got us our buyer. And worked with the buyer's agent to get the deal closed. I highly recommend Kent if you need to sell your home. read more

Kent was amazing in helping us identify an area and house type that would fit our family. He worked closely with us to discover our needs and wants in a house and community. Finally, he helped us find the right fit for our family. Once we located the property we wanted, Kent helped to guide us to making an offer that would stick. As we were relocating from the east coast, he even attended to the home inspection and helped identify financing. Kent went above and beyond through the lifecycle of our home purchase and I would recommend Kent to anyone looking to purchase a home. read more

I would highly highly recommend Kent Redding! Kent was a joy to work with and was incredibly helpful/informative every step of the way. This was a first time experience for our family purchasing a home so we truly did not know all the details or steps in the process. From day one, Kent was patient to walk us through each phase and be available to answer questions at anytime. He made sure we found our dream home and wouldn't settle for anything less on our behalf. He was reliable, consistent, and available to us throughout the process from start to end. read more

Kent helped us buy our first home in Austin 6 years ago! The whole process went smoothly and seemed effortless. We recommended him to numerous friends and family members over the years, and they had amazing experiences with him as well! When it came time to relocate to San Antonio, Kent was very knowledgeable about the re-lo process and knew just how to handle all the paperwork. Listing and ultimately selling our home, went off without a hitch! We feel very blessed to have such a wonderful real estate agent/mentor & friend in our lives! read more

We loved our realtor and our home buying experience! My husband and I were first-time home buyers, and we were very nervous and stressed about the complexities of this process--especially in a city like Austin where homes move fast in the most desirable neighborhoods. Kent and his team were great! They were fast in setting up appointments for all the homes we were interested in viewing, and he even arranged other people in his team to help us with appointments on the days he was not available. We love our new home, thanks Kent! read more

We are very pleased with Mr. Kent Redding's services. He was very professional, honest, and mindful of everything my family and I were looking for in our first home. We have small children and he provided great advice as to what neighborhoods to consider having a great environment for the kids, good schools' reputation, safety, etc. Mr. Redding truly has the heart of a teacher too. He always made himself available to anser all our questions. It was a great experience and a lot of fun overall. read more

Kent is the man! He worked with us when buying our first home in the ruthless Austin market. he listened to us on what we wanted and followed through. He never steered us wrong and we trusted him 100% and so glad we did. He went above and beyond through the entire process and even stuck with us after several failed offers. When we finally found our dream home he continued to fight for us and negotiated even lower prices and even a free fridge. Can't say enough good things about Kent! read more

Kent knows this area and this market better than anyone in Austin. He and his team work hard to provide the highest quality marketing pieces, promo, and care. Our house sold quickly, and Kent navigated us through the negotiations with amazing expertise. He knows great contractors in every field who were able to help us get our house ready quickly to list, which was a huge asset for us. Kent is a genuine person who truly cares about his clients and what their needs are. He's the best! read more

To be successful in real estate I would do it like Kent. Simply return phone calls promptly , treat people with respect, and help people with his experience in negotiation skills. Kent has always given me frank and honest advise. If you are thinking of selling or leasing and don't want the hassles, Kent is your man. He will take care of the details some don't see and make the transaction smooth and fast. Thanks Kent thanks for all you do for our community. read more

Kent is my seller agent to sell my house when I had to relocate to another state. The house was listed during off season (late Oct.). Didn't expect a quick sale and Kent made it happen (at a good price). Kent is very experienced and knowledgeable in the Austin market. He has excellent real time market analysis and sharp judgement. I was totally off site during the whole process, and I am glad I had left it into the good hands. Thanks Kent! read more
