We've used Julie twice since we moved to Austin, and each time she goes above and beyond! She's…read moremore than just a knowledgeable realtor, she is a trusted advisor. We are pretty young and new at this whole process, and Julie has helped us answer every small and "dumb" question along the way with grace and patience, even if we ask her the same question a million times. Julie has sustained a relationship with us throughout our time being in Austin, even when we were not looking to buy, she keeps her community in touch and up to date, with details like notes and kind gestures. She truly cares about us as people, and we've built a great relationship over the years. When we started casually looking for a new home late last year, we took Julie all over Austin and surrounding areas as we were undecided on location. She drove all over with us, weekend after weekend, until we found the right neighborhood for us. She gave us her time in what seemed like fully dedicated space to us and our needs! We felt like star clients, even at our budget range which was not that of star clientele, and we truly appreciated that. I highly recommend Julie, her experience, dedication, and kindness is unmatched, and I know she's been through every scenario, helping us strategize and taking so much of the stress out of what can be a very stressful process.

Julie is an absolutely stellar leader in her field as a realtor. In the bittersweet choice we made…read moreto sell our relatively new home in Austin, we faced a plethora of options from many superb, qualified real estate agents. After getting to know Julie personally and hearing so many great things about her as both a person and an agent, we continued to be impressed with her. She was data-driven, on top of her industry and market, had key relationships across the region and she was easy to partner with. She was open and honest with us from our very first meeting to the last, particularly around the shifting market trends in ATX and nationally. Throughout the showing of our home, not one ball was ever dropped. Our confidence never waned and she was always in control. Julie collected a lot of insights and other critical data points from the various showings of our home, compiling the information and sharing it with us throughout each week. She followed up on every lead, worked with us to help manage our schedules with conflicts arose on our end, and was there with us on closing. She went above and beyond the call of duty in helping us stage and sell our home, always making herself available to answer questions accurately and in detail. Julie did a superb, seamless job, treating us as her neighbor and friend, while providing excellent service to us as her client. We give her our highest recommendation for people looking to maximize value on the sale of their home from a trusted advisor.

She went the extra mile for sure from knocking on doors in that neighborhood to calling on all her connections . . . and we are in!

And instead of blowing the deal, she continued to make shifts and changes on her end to make sure she stayed true to her original word of making our best interests her number one priority! This is a rare find and we are very grateful to her. She made the bewildering process simple and explained things over and over when we were confused. Not only was she helpful through the process but she continues to be helpful and has stayed connected as we have made the transition. She has even found us great babysitters in the neighborhood! We don't only consider her as a knowledgeable and helpful resource in our house buying process but as our friend now too!

Lori has helped us find investment properties, provided consultation on growth areas, and really has been our trusted resource for real estate in the area.

Kathy was my property manager for a house I was renting in South Austin…read more The short version is: I would never ever, ever, ever recommend renting a property from Kathy. She is a terrible landlord. Where do I even start on this review... All the negative reviews she has about communication are 100% true. She will ghost you on maintenance requests CONSTANTLY. When she needed something she needed it same day. When we needed something we wouldn't hear back for days, weeks, or at all. She would take upwards of a month to fix many things and if she did she would do it the cheapest and most half assed way possible. Here's a list of some of the things that happened while living in her rental property: 1. When I moved in, bathroom had black mold on the walls near the shower. I reported when I first moved in. A handy man eventually came over and just painted over it. The mold inevitably came back and I had to wait days for her to send someone to rip out the drywall to actually fix the mold problem. 2. Our kitchen sink was clogged for months. She blew us off about it when we told her draino wasn't working and we needed a plumber. After about a month of asking for help, she comes over and discovers there's a clog deep in the main pipe. Her handy man cuts out a giant square of drywall in our laundry room where the clog is. They accidentally burst the pipe and spray gross drainage water all over our laundry room and into our garage. They then proceed to barely clean up their mess and left it for us to clean. After they patched the broken pipe, Kathy waited another month to send someone out to patch the giant hole in our wall. Her excuse was that the handy man had a cold for the past month. 3. Our dishwasher hardly worked at all until it eventually broke. She refused to send someone out to fix it at first claiming "the dishwasher is brand new. It's only two years old." Despite us telling her it doesn't even turn on. It took several weeks to get a new dish washer. 4. This one is the worst of all. In February, because of the freeze a tree fell and took out a power line to our house. This ended up causing an electrical fire in the garage storage room. We were lucky enough to notice the fire before it spread and the fire department put it out. But it did render part of the garage unusable through fire/water damage. When you have an electrical fire the city turns off your water and electricity until the home is deemed safe to live in. While we were staying elsewhere, I asked Kathy about pro rating rent, since we had paid rent the day of the fire and couldn't live in the house we paid for. As soon as I asked about rent proration, she ghosted me for four entire days. She cited a family emergency as the reason she left us high and dry for four days. It would have taken her 10 seconds to text us but nope. Just total radio silence while we were waiting around to hear when we could go back to the place we pay rent to live in. My room mates and I were displaced for 9 days total before we got the city to turn the power back on, even though fire damage wasn't fixed yet. I had to threaten legal action before she agreed to pro rate 9 days worth of rent for the next month. From day one of the fire, she started acting really shady about getting the house fixed claiming she "has a guy with the city that can get the permits process moved along". I spoke to the fire marshall about that and he essentially told me that isn't how things work and that I need to call the code department myself to ensure my house was fixed properly according to code. Kathy was clearly livid that she now had to fix the house legally and became even more passive towards us. Months after the fire, she told me that because I called the code department that it was my fault the house was still partially burned. Which according to the Austin Code Department Supervisor I spoke to, isn't the case at all. Getting a code violation does not mean repairs take over five months to start. The fire happened February 1st. I finally moved out June 30th. During that entire period of time, the burnt garage was never fixed and she still made us pay the full amount in rent every month. Imagine paying 100% rent for less than 100% of a usable home. When I would ask about ANY update regarding repairs she would act annoyed that I would bother her with such at thing. I'm certain that she purposefully never fixed the house as punishment. If you read her canned responses to other negative reviews, I just want to say they are all bullsh*t. She doesn't provide "superior service" to anyone renting from her. She knows that as a landlord she has the upper hand over her tenants and she acts accordingly. Whether out of greed or incompetence, she's a bad person. Her tenants are nothing more to her than her bottom line.

We can't recommend SEED, specifically Leslie Breeland, enough! Leslie helped us purchase our first…read morehome back in 2016 - and she was able to help us sell that home, and purchase a new one this past Fall. Leslie was ALWAYS available via call or text, was always prompt, and provided us all of the guidance needed.

She is cheerful, knowledgable, and a great negotiator. Would recommend her and SEED in a heartbeat.

You know that when you walk into a SEED house you're going to get quality and advice and care that is above and beyond. That's why we went with them and you can save a lot of time in your home search by picking up the phone and calling them. RIGHT NOW! You don't even need to read further. But to tell you more about our process, we moved to Austin before the pandemic and started looking for homes. We were incredibly picky in what we wanted and SEED understood that and curated our search. When we were ready to put in an offer in this incredibly competitive market, SEED was there every step of the way to take us through it. They were incredibly knowledgable and well-educated about every step of the process and we broke down every home into its components and helped us hone in on what was important to us (our idea of what we wanted vs. what we needed changed as we saw more and more properties!) SEED found us a house that we love and now, looking at it from 35,000 feet, I can say that our home falls into that great taste category. While we didn't totally see it at first, they did -- It's a fixer-upper but they were able to see the forest through the trees and we couldn't be happier. Amy got it done when it mattered, and we're now proud, proud homeowners! I can't recommend SEED, Tammy, and Amy enough. They made the process fun and enjoyable and their bespoke attention to us and to detail would have us coming back time and time again if they didn't already find us our forever home! THANK YOU, SEED, and to those that read on, CALL THEM RIGHT NOW!!!

Though I knew several really good realtors in Austin, we didn't want to work with anyone who we…read moreconsidered a friend--in case things went bad. We wanted to keep our cut throat dealings about the sale of our 1974 1154 square foot rancher on a strictly professional level. I can be sorta an a-hole about things. Three different people recommended Jill to me to be our realtor for the sale of our house, and purchase of a new one. Three people, that I know. In person. With those solid references, we gave her a call when we started our home search--which began when we stalked a house in Hyde Park before the home we owned wasn't even near ready to be listed, and continued as we tried to figure out what we wanted in a new place, Dripping Springs? House in Travis Heights with a tree growing in the middle of it? Jill: *Gave us homework to envision what we wanted in a house. *Talked to us in a really nice voice that was never condescending no matter how batshit crazy we were about this stage of our lives. (I forgot to mention I was in my first trimester of my first pregnancy -2010- trying to figure out where we were going to move.) * gave us snacks while we went out looking at houses. *Did not smack the crap out of us when we realized we needed to rent in order to get our overfull house, that we'd lived in (hard living with dog hair) for 8 years ready to sell. And so we worked with Jill to come up with a plan, and we most of our junk and our dogs and our collections of fantasy figurines, and fabric for projects that *I promise* I'm going to sew one day, out of our old house, and made it pristine. She directed us in the staging of the house, and when we were finally ready, she took AMAZING photos of the place--AND shot an HGTV quality video of the house. The house went on the market and... TWO DAYS LATER WE HAD A REASONABLE OFFER (not full price, but it was CASH, and would close in 2 weeks.) Then we got a back up offer. And then we got a back up to the back up that we didn't formalize because it seemed like that would be showing off. Now I was in my second trimester, and really didn't want to deal with any of the real estate crap at all. Jill: *negotiated win/win agreements with the purchaser of our house *had stellar comps available to defend the price that we set *talked to my husband and I in a really nice voice that was not condescending at all, even when we were freaking out late at night after our baby birth class to learn how to deliver our GIGANTIC baby *made the transacation so easy that I had to watch the movie The Secret again to believe that anything this good was actually possible. (The Secret is that whatever you think is drawn to you to happen...and while I don't go in on all manner of hocus pocus, I did indeed actually watch it because I was in friggin' disbelief that my house was sold after two days on the market, and would close with a cash offer in two weeks. I didn't want my disbelief to jinx it!) She attended our closing, and I apologized to her for several instances where I know I came off as a bija. Now is the time I should mention that she's SO NICE, she's PBS nice. She's Buttermilk Biscuit on The Biscuit Brothers. How in God's green earth could I have ever been uppity to Buttermilk? And she forgave me. (I think.) She brought my new baby Biscuit Brother DVD's. So, I can't say she's going to make you a peanut butter and jelly sandwich when you're on property tour, or she's going to do an homage to Gone with the Wind to sell your garden on the video she makes of your house, or she's going to give you DVDs. What I can say is that she takes her professionalism personally. She embodies each transaction with appropriate integrity and a deeply connected creativity. My hormonal, indecisive transaction needed lots of coddling, but I observed the way she negotiates and she isn't inherently a coddler. She had just done some sort of Black Belt/ Six Sigma/ Jedi Advanced Negotiation training dealie...and she's formidable. She's got the ability to meet people at their level, and give them what they need to have a phenomenal experience during the most stressful moments of life in transition. Whether you're selling and then buying, or just buying for the first time, you want her on your side. If I knew you personally, she is the realtor I would tell you to call.

They were extremely…read morepatient, answered all of our many, many questions, and in the end, helped us find a home during the crazy early 2021 housing market boom. They offered recommendations throughout and had our best interests in mind throughout the process. They recognized that it was difficult for us to go through many losing bids and the difficulty we faced with the new construction shortage and finding the right location, but never slowed down while we changed our direction multiple times through the process. Considering that homes were going under contract within 4 days, they were ALWAYS willing to show us homes whenever we needed, it was a most excellent experience even with the difficulties we were facing in the market. We definitely recommend them if you're looking for a home. They have a great track record and have experience in the quickly changing market of today. And finally, they are great people to work with, chat with and care about your needs! We definitely recommend!
