Sherry Hendrickson was my agent selling my house in 78702…read more I cannot say enough about her service. Six months before I was even ready to list, she came out, did the footwork and provided me with estimates, things I could fix, etc. When it came time to sell, I was out of state and she handled everything - maintenance of the house, staging and even hanging out to make sure the work was done. Maybe not daily, but we were constantly in contact about what was happening - she'll even pick up the phone on a Saturday night! Most importantly, she genuinely cares about the person and the house. She will offer suggestions and opinions, but never push for you to do something you don't want to or take an offer that you don't think is right. In short - highly recommended. 5 stars. Bonus: my dog liked her, so that's a big plus.

Initially, we had no clue what we were doing and asked tons of questions which were all thoroughly and thoughtfully answered. We were beyond blessed to have these people walk us through the process. We were really happy with the relative ease of home-buying compared to so many nightmares we'd read about. Bottom line is this: From the inspector, to the insurance agency to the lenders and title companies, EVERYONE knew who my Realtors were. People at each of these businesses couldn't stop raving about the experience and genuine care these people bring to the table. That said so much about the respect people in the industry have for Violet Crown Realty. They are awesome people too. You can have easy going conversations with them and they will give you honest advice. We didn't know ANYTHING going in to this. A month later and no extra stress, we have our home. We'll def keep in touch with them and would highly recommend them to anyone. Classy folks.

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.

Reed and Regina are the best!…read more While searching for a house, my girlfriend and I worked with several realtors who were eager to show us anything -- and sell us anything as fast as possible. Reed and Regina took their time to understand what we wanted, and then went above and beyond. Checking water pressure, looking for signs of water damage, looking at the AC and laundry units? All par of the course. Throughout the entire process, both would offer us their unfiltered opinions and help us see things we weren't even looking for. These guys are just amazing, and we couldn't have been happier to have found them. Sunny Day Real Estate for the win!

He was professional while laid back and has a passion for what he does. We have referred everyone to him we possibly can. My wifend I built a home and ended up having issues with our builder. We started working with Reed in March of 2012 and closed September 2014. My wife and I built a home and ended up having issues with our builder. Reed worked tirelessly on contracts, helped us pick out finish outs to stay in budget, helped us work with financing and basically just held our hands through the whole thing. If we had a question, we received a response that was thorough and prompt. He had patience and focus and that is the only reason we ever got in our home. One of the most impressive moments was when we randomly came to the build and found Reed in the tree well digging out dirt with a pick axe and shovel so we could meet the tree inspection deadline. The builder was dragging his feet and Reed decided he could get it done. It was August and miserable and he was moving bucketloads of dirt out so we could close. We will always count Reed a friend and can't thank him enough for his help. Reed is a rockstar and if you are a friend of mine, chances are I have told you that already. Reed and Regina just recently helped my wife's mother get a home and had a wonderful experience. They have been there every step and have helped make the experience enjoyable.

Managing our investment property in Austin after moving to the North East was quite challenging for us, and Gary made this incredibly easy and stress free. He was always prompt, and transparent in his communications, which seems to be a rare trait to find these days. Eventually, when we decided to sell the property, we entrusted Gary to not only get a good offer for the house, but to also take care of the various maintenance issues prior to listing. Gary exceeded our expectations on every metric! We were able to go through the whole process remotely, and Gary made sure everything was as smooth as possible for us. We are very grateful that we were able to connect with such a wonderful person. It goes without saying that we would highly recommend Gary to anyone looking for a real estate agent!

I have never in my 20+ years of renting come across such bad business practices…read more I reached out to Mission South via an online listing from Zillow. The returning contact was Vito Raymond with Metro 512 Realty a.k.a. 512Living a.k.a. The 512 Group. Vito met me onsite at Mission South to show me apartment 112. When I arrived he said that unit had been leased but he could show me 109. Unit 109 left much to be desired. You could tell they were working on it, but you could also see the unit suffered years of maintenance neglect. Still sensing my hesitation, Vito called me back to come look at a finished unit at Mission South the next morning. This unit looked good, but sadly it was on the second floor. Due to a current disability, I need to be in a first floor unit or have access to an elevator for upper floor unit occupation. I asked Vito if some basic updates could be made to the 109 unit before I applied & he said that my list items were already on their list to take care of. I informed him that I was not available for any move-in until at least March 13, due to my being out of the country. I don't think that message hit home with anyone, because as I was out of town, the pressuring messages started flooding in. Multiple texts from Vito to which I replied that I was still abroad. I asked if I could see the unit before signing the lease & if it didn't work, for whatever reason, if I could get my security deposit back. His reply was "Yes that can happen as long as you don't sign the lease first. So pay the deposit and tell Loren our property manager that you want to see the apartment before signing the lease". The very next day I got an email from 512Living - Mission South's assistant manager Marisa Garcia. "The security deposit and admin fee payments are missing in order to hold the unit & send the lease.", she explained. In fear of not having a place to live when I got back to Austin, I reluctantly paid the admin fee & the security deposit via an online portal on March 8th. my mistake was assuming Vito had spoken to them about my being abroad & about my request for the deposit refund. Friday 3/15/24, I texted Vito that the unit wasn't right for me and that I wasn't going to make our meeting or sign the 12 month lease with Mission South. He wished me luck & asked me to reach out to Loren, the manager for Mission South & employee of 512Living to get my security deposit refund. I called & left a message with the admin on shift. Later that day I got an email from Loren reading ..... "Mary- I've attached a copy of the application for your records. Your application was received on 02/26 & approved on 02/28 when your guarantors application was submitted. The deposit was paid on the 8th, & the lease was sent the same day- the unit had been held since the 8th. On page 6 of the application, it states in paragraph 3 & 6 that we may keep the application deposit as liquidated damages if you don't sign the lease or withdraw your application. I know Vito mentioned you weren't ready to commit to a long term lease. I can ask the owner if they would consider a shorter term lease if you would like; let me know and I can reach out to the owner. If you have any questions in regards to this, please let me know. -Loren" Notice that in the email above Loren improperly refers to my security deposit as an application deposit. I paid a security deposit, as referred to in the application. I did not ask for a 6 month lease that she attempted to have prepared for me. I explained to her that Vito mentioned that the security deposit was refundable if I didn't sign the lease & asked her to have the owner call me. After two days of no reply I followed up with an email explaining that I am not interested in signing a lease & that I do not feel comfortable doing business with a company that allows misrepresentation of terms from an agent regarding the refund-ability of security deposits. I also asked them to send an itemized & dated list of any liquidated damages suspected to be associated with this transaction. I still have not received this. Loren replied "although the application specifies that we can retain the application deposit as liquidated damages in case of withdrawal or failure to sign the lease, the owner has agreed to refund half of your application deposit, totaling $537.50." Again incorrectly referring to the security deposit as an application deposit. There are no defined terms for clear understanding. They change the deposit term to suit their needs. This is absolutely poor real estate practices & every realtor I have spoken to says they are operating incorrectly by Texas law. Even Vito texted confirmation that he "did say the security deposit was refundable and that has always been their policy". I took the partial refund, but I am still waiting on the receipt for damages. They are now past 30 days as required by law in the state of Texas to produce this. I am still working to get the rest of my money. BUYER BEWARE!

They kept telling me to drop the price, but my own listing data showed their excuses didn't make sense and no one was actually showing up. I was losing precious time, money, and honestly losing hope. I found Neil through my own research, and from our first phone call, the difference was night and day. He jumped right on it with absolute urgency and took over the lease contract immediately. Where another company failed for months, Neil did his homework, coordinated perfectly, and got the place rented in just three weeks. It was a massive relief and completely mind-blowing. What really sets Neil apart is that he doesn't just put up a listing, hand over a key, and walk away. He treated my business like it was his own: A true partner and advisor: Neil doesn't brush you off. We would regularly talk on the phone, sometimes for an hour, bouncing ideas back and forth. His suggestions on managing the property and his insights into the local market were incredibly sharp. He shows up physically: He didn't just manage this from a laptop. Neil was physically at the property tons of times whenever I needed backup, even handling tricky HOA visits and logistics when I had a million things on my plate. He actually answers his phone: Every single call, question, or random ask I had was met with an immediate response. The most amazing part is that this was just a rental lease assignment, not a massive home sale commission. Most realtors cut corners on rentals because the payout isn't huge, but Neil poured 100% of his heart and energy into it anyway. Neil is one of the few realtors left who genuinely loves his job, knows the industry inside and out, and actually does what a realtor is supposed to do. I am absolutely going to keep working with him, and if you want to save yourself the headache and work with a great human being who gets results, Neil is your guy.

The most recent deal was a stressful mess (to us) but Adam and his team never broke a sweat, they kept the ball rolling and never let us throw in the towel. At a moments notice they gave up their weekend to assist us and never once complained or gave an excuse. We can not thank them enough for their work on all of our deals but especially the last one. We would absolutely recommend Adam Walker to anyone who was interested in a knowledgeable, no pressure, good listening realtor. Growing up in South Austin he has an enormous insight to the areas and amazing business connections. Not once did Adam try to pressure us into anything or force his opinion on a matter. The best trait though was his listening skills. He takes the time to step back and hear out his clients for their true needs and he is thoughtful in his suggestions and never pressures.

We decided to list and sell it, and Adam was right there with help, advice, data and information. The house had been rented for 9 years, and it needed a lot of TLC to get it ready for the market.

Adam and his team (especially Kattie) took the lead and in no time had it ready for market looking quite spiffy.

We are repeat clients, and will absolutely continue to use Adam's services when we are buying or selling in Austin!
