She all the work without requiring me to meet face-to-face, generally by phone email and e-doc and handled all interactions with getting the tenants deposit and lease signed.

I had an excellent experience working with Meaghan! Selling a home in a challenging market can be…read morestressful, but Meaghan made the entire process feel much more manageable with her clear strategy, excellent communication, and unwavering commitment to my best interests. She was always available to answer questions, talk through options, and provide guidance whenever I needed it. What stood out most was how intentional she was with her approach and how strongly she advocated for me throughout the process. Selling in a difficult market requires the right strategy and the right person in your corner, and Meaghan truly delivered on both. I'm so grateful for her dedication and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, responsive, and trustworthy realtor who genuinely goes above and beyond for her clients!

My wife and I were first-time home buyers and went with Bramlett Partners based off reviews online…read more We ended up being contacted by Kiel Schmidt who was very professional and thorough regarding what the entire buying process would look like. He provides very clear communication regardless if you prefer calls/emails/text, and he was very accessible throughout the whole process. This was especially important as we were buying from out of state with the intention of moving to Austin soon. Kiel gave us recommendations for what pricing to start with and helped with negotiations as well as giving a recommendation for a home inspector so that we would be well prepared on the condition of the house during the option period. Negotiations were data-driven with comps in the area and he also provides monthly market analysis. I would definitely recommend Kiel for home buyers!

My wife and I have been working with Chris Torrey with Elite Realty Advisors since the middle of…read more2015 and are about to close on a home in Austin, TX. Since we live in Los Angeles, we were concerned about the entire home buying process given that we can't physically see every home we're interested in (let alone make an offer on a home site unseen). Chris has consistently gone above and beyond for us, emailing us walk-though videos, providing CMA's quickly and offering tons of insight about each neighborhood, property and how to manage the home buying process in general. Perhaps most importantly, given how competitive the Austin market is right now, he's provided us info quickly enough that we can make decisions with confidence and succeed in these borderline-ridiculous multiple offer situations. He also recommended vendors that have done a killer job with inspections and our home loan. He even helped us get more concessions from the sellers than we originally requested, which was a huge bonus! To say that buying in Austin is crazy right now would be an understatement, but Chris helped us ease into the market in an educated way and soon we'll be in the home we wanted most. If you're buying in the Austin area (especially if you're an out-of-towner), I highly recommend using Chris Torrey and Elite Realty Advisors.

We were never overwhelmed by the processes and never felt that any of our questions were too simple to ask. I have recommended Elite Realty Advisors to a friend recently selling their home. Wonderful experience on selling our home (in 7 days) to buying a home within a month in a highly volatile market where homes were flying off the market; as soon as we found one we were able to get in touch with Chris to schedule a tour. We simply cannot say enough positive things about Elite Realty Advisors and how seamless the entire process was.

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.

I have been using Mars Hill Realty to manage my rental house in Round Rock, Texas for the last 7…read moreyears. They have done a great job responding to the tenants need and keeping my rental house in top shape. I love the fact that they are proactive in recommending repairs to various parts of the house before it becomes very expensive to fix. In addition to the superb service they provided me, they have a top notched team who treats me like family. Everyone is very professional, respectful, and caring. One of the team member whom I've had the pleasure of working with over the years is Valerie Tillery. Valerie is very knowledgeable in real estate and property management. Whenever I have a question regarding my investment property, Valerie always responded quickly with clear answers to my questions. I've always felt that Valerie takes her time to make sure that any concerns or issues I have about my property is well addressed. Under her management, my rental property was never vacant for more than a week or two between tenants. That's just the time it takes for the crew to get the house ready for the next tenant. We usually have a new tenant signed a rental agreement before the old tenant moved out. My investment house have been cash flowing nicely since my purchase. I enjoyed working with Mars Hill Realty so much that I'm in the process of closing on another property in Georgetown, Texas for them to manage. Aside from Texas, I was also looking at Florida for my second investment home. While the housing prices in Florida is comparable to Texas, the cost of investing in Florida is cheaper than Texas because they have lower property tax. So why didn't I invest in Florida? Because Mars Hill Realty does not do business there. There's no property management that I trust more than Mars Hill Realty. In fact, it was Valerie who introduced me to the neighborhood that I'm buying my second investment home in. My experience as a property investor has been really stress-free with Mars Hill Realty managing my property. If you want a property management company that takes care of your property as if it's their own, you should consider working with Mars Hill Realty. I promise that you won't regret it.

He's friendly, attentive, responsive, reasonable and doesn't hesitate to share his feedback, good & bad, or just for things I hadn't thought of. I was looking for someone with an experienced perspective, not just a yes-person, and that was my experience with him. On the selling side, some of my family had agents in the past who went unreasonably overboard with staging or bending over backwards for prospect buyers, and that was not my experience here, which I'm very grateful for. We dealt with a Prospect buyer/agent combo who were at times unreasonable, waited until the last minute to ask for things & where the agent didn't do a good job at managing their clients' expectations, and Jason handled a lot of those tougher interactions before I even had to, and was instrumental to getting us through close.

There are other new build developments offering better houses and better deals. Bigalow requires a 3.5% deposit which is insane! No other builder has a deposit that large and I wish my real estate agent had dissuaded me from signing this awful contract which gives Bigalow up to 2 years to delay your house. With such a bad contract, why did I ever sign? lt was March 2022, the height of the real estate craziness and this was a no bid community. Charlene the sales rep told me that all the materials for the house were already sourced and that the likelihood of a delay was very unlikely. Great! I thought I could lock in a solid rate and the house would be done by September, possibly October. She had straight up lied to me. By the end of July we were finally told the house would be delayed till November. Luckily we had a back up mortgage rate lock for 4.7 that went til January. And... you guessed it. The house was delayed further, leaving us with a large mortgage rate. It no longer made sense to continue and we canceled our contract. This is the biggest regret I had in my life. They have a terrible contract, poor communication, and will lie to get a contract signed. Please if you read this: Avoid Bigalow.
