As a first-time homebuyer, the process of purchasing a home can feel completely overwhelming - but Patrick Eitel made every step of the journey feel manageable and, honestly, enjoyable. From day one, he put my mind at ease and it was immediately clear that he is 100% in his client's corner. Patrick is the rare combination of transparent, personable, and deeply knowledgeable. He took the time to walk me through every aspect of the homebuying process - mortgages, taxes, inspections - in a way that actually made sense and never felt rushed. The moment that truly set Patrick apart? I had a last-minute request for an additional inspection right before the close of the option period. I called him on a Friday evening not expecting much - and by Saturday morning, he had an inspector on site. I still can't believe he pulled that off. That kind of hustle and dedication to his clients is truly rare. What also surprised me is that Patrick's support didn't stop at closing. Even after the transaction was complete, he has continued to be a go-to resource - helping me find trusted electricians, plumbers, and landscapers, and even walking me through how to navigate my home warranty. That level of ongoing care goes so far beyond what you'd expect from a realtor. Patrick isn't only real estate agent - he's a trusted advisor. If you're buying a home, especially for the first time, do yourself a favor and work with Patrick Eitel. You won't regret it. read more

He's very knowledgeable about the process of buying homes, and also has a lot of experience in doing work on homes himself.

Patrick meticulously guided my daughter to purchase her first home. She and I are two time zones apart and so I was not able to help her as much as I wanted. Patrick kept me informed every step of the way from making an offer for the house to the Close. There was not a single hiccup in the entire process because of his attention to details and timely communication. Thanks, Patrick! read more

I can't recommend Patrick Eitel and his team enough! As a first-home buyer, I was new to the process and had a lot to learn, but felt completely supported by Patrick every step of the way. My husband and I first met with Patrick in Dec 2024 to discuss our goals for a new home. He was very helpful and provided tips and resources right away. When we started looking at homes, Patrick was always available to meet with us, walk us through homes and offer helpful perspective on each one. When we were ready to make an offer on one of the homes, he jumped in and quickly created an offer strategy that put our best foot forward while protecting our interests as buyers. We were fortunate to have our first offer accepted thanks to Patrick's expert guidance! The inspection and mortgage processes initially felt overwhelming, but Patrick helped us navigate every step, including making many visits to our home when we could not (due to work or travel), helping us line up inspectors and specialists to evaluate our home, and quickly addressing our many questions. We just closed (March 2025), and couldn't feel more excited to have found a home we love at a deal we feel in which we felt very confident. Thank you to Patrick and team, we will be a long-term client! read more

Patrick is an excellent Agent. He is very knowledgeable on the Austin area and all the local nuances by town. He fought to get us a great deal and protected us and informed us along the way. He also has a great team that kept everything organized and on track. He didn't stop there. He came to our closing and brought us an amazing congratulatory gift. He's also just a great family guy! Highly recommend if you are looking to buy or sell or rent! read more

Patrick Eitel is definitely the best of best in Austin. I have been working with him for years. Four house sales and purchased. I van reach out when I have questions and when I feel scared as we all do in these situations. He is reassuring and always comes through with what he says. This last sale was a tight one . I had less than 30 days and he found me a cash offer and we closed in less than 25. We even got close to my asking price. I was so happy. There team was incredible. I was not even in town for the closing everything went over my phone with a notary. It was so easy and I had my money the next day!! You would be making a mistake if you don't use this team. read more

I cannot say enough about how wonderful the home buying experience with Patrick Eitel and the Eitel group was!! Patrick went above and beyond from the moment we met him - we had a vision of getting a modern home in one of the hottest markets in the United States, and within the first hour of meeting with him he had our style down to a T, ideas on listings not even on the market and by the end of the first week he found us not just our dream home but one with an income property included in one of the most desirable areas of Austin, Tarry Town. He and his team were amazing throughout the process - educating us every step of the way, checking in on the property and taking photos weekly for the 8 months it took to complete and advocating on our behalf every step of the way. I would recommend Patrick and the Eitel team to ANYONE looking to buy in the Austin market! He took a personal interest in not just selling a home but forging a trusted advisor relationship and ensuring that we got value and exactly what we were looking for despite being in one of the most competitive Real Estate markets in the world! Thanks a Million to Patrick for getting us a dream home even in a tough market!! read more

I have worked hands on and side by side closely with Patrick on countless transactions throughout the past two years and can honestly say he is extremely knowledgable in his profession and genuinely looks out for his buyer and sellers interests above all else! Whether you are a first-time homebuyer, first-time home seller, or repeat client, you will truly get top notch service from him from start to finish. He takes pride in his service and it shows! Patrick is fun to work and a wonderful communicator across the board. His skill set and thoughtful compassion and wealth of information has been a huge asset to me personally and it has been a joy to work with him. I look forward to many more transactions together! Patrick is the best! read more

What can I saw I bought my first home with Patricks help and he was amazing. He handles all the key details, keeps you informed of the all the processes involved and most importantly has your best interest at heart if you are building a new home or buying an existing home from another seller. I love working with Patrick, I just bought another home with his help with my new wife and we both could not be happier! I strongly recommend you work with Patrick if you are buying or selling a home in the Austin market. read more

Not sure where to start with how satisfied I am with Patrick Eitel and his team helping me find a home. I had a very diverse search which included both condos and single family homes in north and south Austin. Patrick talked me through the process and helped me navigate what I really wanted. He did not push any deal on me in fact he talked me out of houses that could have been very problematic. In the end I got a perfect house for me in the perfect neighborhood. And I stayed under my budget too! Patrick and his team carried all the stressful aspects of the process and made everything so easy. He also continued to follow up after I closed and moved in. Thank you so much Patrick for your patience and persistence. read more

Patrick and his team did an amazing job making our first time home buying experience go smoother than I could have imagined.

Patrick and his team were great and so easy to work with. They made the whole process smooth and easy and were readily available with any questions or concerns. They also had great connections of other professionals to work with during the process and after as new home owners. read more

Working with Patrick Eitel exceeded any of my expectations . Right away Patrick was incredibly friendly and took time to sit us and determine the best way to sell our fathers home. Patrick came to our first meeting enthusiastic and well prepared, and every interaction we had with him after that was the same. He was very helpful in explaining the entire process and really relieved our stress level after our fathers passing . He proposed an efficient sale process, arranged for the staging and photographs, gave us good and thoughtfully critical advice on selling. The sale went very well-he brought in offers, all above asking price. I can't wait to work with him again.. I truly believe his expertise helped tremendously in our offer getting accepted. I highly recommend Patrick! Camilla Freitag read more

Patrick Eitel was an amazing realtor! After our house sitting on the market with another realtor for 3 months he took over. He was able to sell our house in 6 days. His level of professionalism and skill is like no other realtor. I would highly recommend Patrick as a realtor. He is the BEST! read more

Patrick and his team are honorary members of our family. We've worked with Patrick as both a buying and selling agent and couldn't be happier with the results. He is genuine, knowledgeable, considerate and very well connected in the market. No problem is too big for him to handle and no complaint is too small for him to stop everything and address your needs. Even though we now live out of state I still plan on reaching out to Patrick every time we make a real estate move, just for his advice and sound guidance. read more

Patrick is one of those unique individuals in his industry that puts relationships above sales. He has represented my family on both the sales side and the buying side and made the process seamless from our end. He was able to get us multiple offers on the first day our home was on the MLS. Patrick has a cool and collected demeanor that never comes across as pushy or salesy. When it comes to selling your home, it's personal, to you the seller, and Patrick understands that and respects that. I would recommend Patrick to anyone looking to buy or sale a home. read more

Patrick went above and beyond to make sure I got a good deal on my condo and financing. I had a difficult time with my financing, but Pat got me through it with his optimism and never-give-up attitude. I've known Pat for many years, and he is a first class act. I refer my clientele to him with full trust that he will provide the best experience. read more

Patrick and his team are fantastic. He deftly navigated a tricky transaction for us and got us everything we wanted and more -- we really couldn't be any happier with how our home purchase went. He was professional, friendly, personable, responsive, and really went the extra mile to make sure that we were satisfied and that we were getting a good deal. He asked questions we didn't know need to be asked, and really went to bat for us as a negotiator. Throughout the process we had the impression that Patrick is deeply connected to the real estate business in Austin and knows the market very well. We'll definitely be recommending Patrick to our friends and family as real estate needs arise. read more

Patrick did a wonderful job selling my house! I originally hired a family friend to list my house and had to fire her after 60 days on the market. Patrick gained my business and sold it in 2 days!! I was so impressed! He was very professional and quick to answer emails and phone calls. It felt so good to have someone you trust selling your largest asset! I would highly recommend using Patrick to list your home and I am currently using him to find my new house! Be ready to sell, because he'll make it fly off the market! read more

Patrick Eitel is the person you want representing you when purchasing a home in Austin. Patrick was referred to us from friends and coworkers, and we understand why he came so highly recommended. My wife and I were apprehensive about purchasing a home in a housing market as competitive as Austin, but Patrick put us at ease with his abundant knowledge and honest answers to our questions and concerns. In the end, he found us a great off-market property, in the location we wanted. Highly recommend!! read more

I highly recommend Patrick. When my dad died, his will designated me executor for his estate. But the estate had properties in multiple cities, and I lived two time zones from any of them. Patrick took on the Austin condo. He made it ready for sale by getting rid of all of the furniture and hiring contractors to clean up. The listing generated dozens and dozens of viewings, and we received multiple offers for the property. Throughout the process, I had very little to worry about, and Patrick kept me up to speed on everything. Even though the market began to soften just as we went to sell, we still ended up with one of the highest price per square foot ratios in the history of the building. If you want someone you can trust who will work hard to get results, give Patrick a call. read more

Bought my first house with Patrick. I have nothing negative to say. He was supportive and listened to me the whole time. Very experienced and honest!!! Recommend to anyone :) read more

Patrick did an excellent job throughout the process of marketing and selling my house! On our very first meeting at the house Patrick and I discussed how to give the house better curb appeal by taking out some ugly shrubs that hid the front windows and replacing them with a native landscape garden. Patrick and I then met at Lowe's. He picked out native plants and landscaping materials with me, helped me load them in my truck, drove back to my house to help me unload them, and spray painted an outline for the area we wanted to landscape. How many realtors would do all of that, especially on a first meeting? Patrick recommended and contacted a landscaper he knew to do the landscaping work at a very reasonable price and scheduled the work following my approval. Patrick came prepared to that first meeting with a listing of sold and for sale comps in the area. During a walk-through of the house, we discussed things that could be done to bring the house more up to date and make it more marketable. He made some very good recommendations at that time. A few days later Patrick came back to the house to meet with me and my interior designer. We all worked together to brainstorm ideas for improvements that were within my budget and would result in the most bang for the buck. This included installing new counter-tops in the kitchen and bathrooms. After obtaining estimates from three counter-top contractors, I used one that Patrick had recommended and the counter-tops turned out great. Patrick had an excellent marketing plan for my house. Although I don't know everything that went into marketing it behind the scenes, I know some of the things he did. He put a coming soon sign in the front yard while inside work was happening to create interest in the property. The sign included a contact phone number for interested parties and allowed them to provide contact information for Patrick. The exterior and interior pictures of the house by the professional photographer Patrick contracted turned out excellent. He listed my house specifically in an email newsletter he sends out. He kept me informed throughout the process of what to expect. We established a listing price that per square foot was above what other area homes had been selling for. My house was listed on a Thursday and by the next Monday Patrick brought three offers to me, one of which was above asking price. I accepted that offer, but Patrick did not stop working, as he sought and received an equal priced backup offer, which I accepted after the person that made the original offer withdrew. From there on things went very smooth and the sale closed on schedule. From my complete experience, I highly recommend Patrick as a seller's agent and won't hesitate to use him again! read more

Patrick is a phenomenal realtor. I must admit, I was "anti-realtor" before this whole process- after 19k in new plumbing because of a failed static test- I have changed my tune. We got the house we loved, with new plumbing, and so far we are pleased with his referrals- even after we have closed and finished our actually house buying process. He continues to check up on us weeks after closing. read more

Patrick had his work cut out with us. The first house we tried for didn't work out, but he kept us on mission to get us into a home we knew we would be happy to grow old in. We just closed on our home, and we could not be happier! Patrick is very knowledgeable and has a ton of contacts to help you and your family with all needs of the house buying process. Use Patrick with confidence!! read more

Joaquin and Alex were patient and awesome during our home buying experience! Highly recommend

Patrick is awesome. I have bought two houses and sold one house with Patrick and he gets the job done every time. For me, buying and selling homes is extremely high stress and Patrick stays calm, cool, and collected throughout the entire process. Patrick has been in this business for a long time and is definitely experienced. I especially appreciate how Patrick personally handles all aspects of the transaction and works tirelessly to get you the best deal. If you want to get the best price for your home, look no further than Patrick Eitel! read more

I have worked with Patrick and The Eitel Group for a long time and he does an incredible job negotiating for his clients, both buyers and sellers. In this current market, it can be hard to get under contract with the lack of inventory. I have seen several times where he was able to beat out cash offers which is unheard of! It helps that he and his team have worked in this area for a long time and have a great reputation. He and his team are top notch! read more

Patrick was great to work with in the process of buying our home. I appreciated that he had an eye for detail and when I had a question about the material used on each property, he would be honest about if it was good quality or not. read more

Patrick is phenomenal. He took on the difficult task of helping me sell a very unique property outside of town, knowing it may be a long process. All along the way, he kept me informed of what was going on, and even pulled some favors here and there to get me more info than I needed. He is a great guy, and in the end, that's what you want in someone helping you with something as huge as selling a piece of property that has been in your family almost your entire life. He delivered. All and all, wonderful experience. read more

Buying a new home is an exciting experience, yet it can also be a little intimidating to first-time buyers (at least it was for me) as there are so many steps to take to find the perfect home--from searching for the right house, securing financing, inspections, appraisals, and on and on--that before you even start looking you have this feeling of being in unchartered territory without a compass. These are just some of the reasons finding the right realtor is the most important first step when buying a new home. Enter Patrick Eitel. Working with Patrick Eitel as our realtor was by far the best part of our house-buying process. My husband and I found Patrick to be professional, experienced and extremely knowledgeable in all aspects of the Austin real estate market. He had our best interests in mind from day one, and he and his team were amazing throughout the entire process. Patrick has his finger on the pulse of the Austin real estate market, he listens to the needs of his clients and has great ideas, and he responds quickly and efficiently to any questions thrown at him. He is also very helpful in many other house related areas, such as financing, construction and renovation (just to name a few). We chose to work with Patrick because my in-laws had just worked with Patrick's father, Russ Eitel, to buy their new place, and they had nothing but wonderful things to say about the Eitel Group. Going with their referral was the best decision we could have made, so now I am passing on my referral to all of you review-reading folks out there looking for the best realtor to help you find your dream house. read more

Patrick did an AMAZING job helping me sell my home. I cannot recommend him highly enough. He was there every step of the way. I received multiple offers over asking in only three days. He's the BEST! I can't wait to buy or sell another home and work with him again. read more

I don't normally post reviews on Yelp, but Patrick is absolutely worth it to endorse. My wife and I used Patrick to buy our house in the summer of 2008 when we moved to Austin. We had a horrible experience with our real estate agent in Nashville (the one who was selling our house), and it was great to have a refreshing experience with Patrick where we saw how great a realtor could be. It was clear from the onset that Patrick was always looking out for our best interests, and that he is extremely knowledgable. He also is very patient. We had come in for a 4 day weekend to try to find a house and must have gone to over 35 different houses in that time. Patrick gave us the exact words of encouragement that we needed anytime we were starting to get down. He also was great at understanding what we were looking for very quickly. After a few houses, he was able to quickly go in to a house with us and he knew right away whether we would like it or not. That made the process significantly easier! We also appreciated Patrick's mindset of making sure that you are making a good investment in addition to finding a great home. That attitude helped us know that we did get a good deal on our house, and the guidance that Patrick provided was always appreciated. Patrick is a great person and a great Realtor. I have recommended him to others, and will continue to do so. We've seen how bad a Realtor can be, and feel extremely fortunate to have found and used Patrick. We always trusted him, and continue to. Plus, something that we learned to really appreciate was his proactiveness. That is a quality that many Realtors lack, and Patrick has it to spare. He will continue to work for you until you are 100% satisfied. If you want a great home-buying experience, Patrick is the way to go. read more

Patrick and his team are awesome!!! He helped us sell our house for a record price in our neighborhood then helped us buy our dream home. He worked tirelessly to ensure that we had the best. Experience possible even when he had to work behind the scenes helping the other Realtor when they didn't know what they were doing. Cant recommend them enough!! Use Patrick and his team. read more

Patrick is the realtor you want whether you're a first time home buyer you're a seasoned pro. He was more than patient with all our questions and concerns and always made sure we were well informed throughout the whole process. His passion for home ownership is so genuine, you can feel it any time you ask him anything. I am so glad we had him on our side to advocate for our first home. Thank you Patrick!! read more

Patrick helped us get our dream home in under 30 days start to finish on a house that had multiple offers on the first day it was listed. It wasn't a coincidence that this happened - Patrick's hard work and experience gave us confidence that we were in good hands and his negotiation skills with the seller ensured that ours was the winning offer. We highly recommend Patrick and will be using him again in the future. read more

Patrick is an extremely knowledgeable and most of all helpful real estate agent. We enjoyed working with him throughout the entire process. He was very professional and patient. It was our first time buying a home and he guided us through every step of the process. We really appreciated that he made us feel that every question we had was valid. I'm sure we had plenty of silly questions but he never made us feel so. Also, he was super responsive to emails, calls, and text. He is very knowledgeable about the Austin market and the home buying process in general. He was more than a real estate agent he was a guide and mentor during this complicated process. Our home we purchased had tenant living in it at the time of sale. He made sure to make us comfortable with being landlords and was instrumental in the property management process. In addition to the above he's given us so many helpful tips about being a first time homeowner from recommend reputable and trustworthy contractors to explaining how to homestead our property. We cannot recommend Patrick and his team more! They're true professionals and I guarantee you'll be happy choosing The Eitel Group to help you purchase your next home. read more
