We worked with Eric's team on selling our previous house, and are in the process of buying a house with him. He is very easy to work with and extremely knowledgeable about all things real estate in Austin. With his advice on some updates/repairs before selling, we avoided wasting money on some costly work, and made some other improvements that really added value and increased selling price. Eric was there to help us with each step as things progressed. Eric and Bailey's help and responsiveness has been excellent in both buying and selling. We have recommended Eric to friends and look forward to using him in the future.
Talk about a great experience!!
We were looking for a buyer's agent to help us in our UT Austin campus area condo search (we are from WA so we had one weekend to cram it all in). We checked out several realtors online reviews and decided to go with Eric Bramlett Residential Real Estate.
We were connected with WILL MACKINTOSH - who is terrific to work with. He really listened to what our needs/wish list were. He forwarded us listings before we arrived in town so we could set up a "tour of listings". He knows the area/surrounding areas in depth. He gave us great unbiased input.
We ended up purchasing a great Hyde Park condo at a price we were comfortable with. It went super smooth since we had to close the deal long distance.
There were a few minor repairs/handyman type work that we totally knew about and Will assisted us and made sure himself that it got done professionally and promptly.
If you are looking for real estate in the Austin area Eric Bramlett Residential Real Estate will not disappoint!
Eric Bramlett did a good job representing us. We would use him again for future real estate needs.
Some realtors just want a quick buck, then there are others who go above and beyond to satisfy the client regardless of the payout. Eric Bramlett and his team were very knowledgable of the entire Austin area, which was crucial as we relocated from California. Even though we decided to rent for a year to get to know the area, Eric still helped us find a rental home and even helped facilitate our rental agreement. We didn't even ask for help with the rental search. He offered it and we couldn't appreciate his help enough! Bases on our experiences with Eric Bramlett, we will use him in the future if we decide to buy a home in the Austin area.
We worked with Tara McGuire to sell our rental house in Austin after we moved to Seattle. I expected it to be a difficult process since our tenants left the house in poor condition and we were 2500 miles away. Well, it actually ended up being a very pleasant experience. We met with Tara a couple of months in advance to formulate a plan and then her team began working immediately after our tenants moved out. They had the house ready within a couple of weeks and then it sold a few days later. I couldn't be more pleased with the level of service!
Bramlett Residential helped me and my family find a perfect home and keep a deal together with a difficult seller and lender that delayed my closing.
Since we were relocating to Austin, I was looking for a broker that would be more responsive and give us a better level of customer service. Eric and his team exceeded our expectations. He responded quickly to all our requests, and worked with us and our unique requirements (over a 6-8 month period) even though we were unsure about what we wanted at the outset. I found that he has a deep understanding of Austin real estate market, and an uncanny ability to quickly lay out the trade-offs of living in various neighborhoods. Finally, when we were interested in making an offer for a home we liked, he encouraged us to look at alternate options to make sure we were confident in our decision about the house we wanted.
Since we were unable to close on time due to lender delays, Eric was instrumental in working with the listing agent to keep the deal together and negotiate extensions with a difficult seller and frustrated buyer (us). During this period and after we closed, Bailey (on Eric's team) ensured the inspection was done immediately , completed the final walk-though for us, and helped us set up the house the way we wanted since we were not moving for another month.
I highly recommend Bramlett Residential if you are looking for a broker that is sharp, diligent, very knowledgeable about Austin real estate, and works alongside you to meet you and your family's unique needs in a new home.
We met Eric back in 2007 when he helped us find a home to rent. We were abroad and mostly communicated through lengthy e-mails. It was amazing how smoothly and efficiently he helped us find a house. When we finally decided to buy a home last year, we didn't hesitate a minute and contacted him. He did it again and helped us find our dream house.
Eric is highly professional, knowledgeable, and reliable. He is informative, systematic, backs up his recommendations based on data, appropriate advice on strategy, and eager to communicate with you. But he doesn't stop there. No, he goes further than that. He will answer all your questions no matter how tedious, repetitive and annoying they are. He always has a way to encourage and help you in your moments of doubts and frustrations. He knows buying a home is not an easy task. He can always give you an objective opinion and assessment of things, which really helps when you feel unsure. He doesn't push his opinions on you but when it is time to act he is ready to guide you through the process without hesitation. Buying a house can be overwhelming and Eric has genuinely helped me step-by-step through the whole process. Thanks to him we came through as the winner of multiple offers on the house that we really wanted.
But what really makes Eric stand out is his integrity and trustworthiness. You become to appreciate his honesty, readiness to help, patience and composure. I really look forward to working with him on other projects in the future.
And don't want to forget Bailey. She is just as much a great person to work with! Thank y'all~!
We are first-time home buyers, and were looking for a knowledgeable and reliable realtor to help us with our search. And I'm petty sure we couldn't have found a realtor better than Eric! He was very accessible over the phone from Day 1 all the way till closing. In our first meeting which lasted about 30 minutes, he very quickly understood what we were looking for and what factors would work as positives (or negatives) for us in the home search (even including criteria that we hadn't explicitly told him!). Eric promptly got in touch with a bunch of builders the same evening and made a schedule for us for the next few days. He was patient and worked with our schedules. Eric drove us by various neighborhoods he had shortlisted for us to help us get a feel for what we would like in a community. He would readily pitch in with his thoughts when we had questions about either the construction or the neighborhoods or anything else.
What we liked most about Eric was that he was never pushy during the whole process, never in a hurry to get us to close on a property, yet gave us valuable advice on the homes. This helped us narrow down our options relatively quickly, and his inputs enabled us to prioritize our criteria better. We had been independently looking for homes earlier, but this was definitely productive use of time. We found our new home on Day 3 with Eric, and he helped us with the negotiations and paperwork too. He was there all the way till the end making sure that everything went smooth, and now we and moving into a wonderful home!
I'd definitely recommend Eric for all home buyers, he's simply the best in town!
We were so lucky to have Eric recommended to us. My husband and I have worked with our fair share of real estate agents in the past but Eric is by far the best agent we have ever worked with. I would highly suggest using Eric and his company to anyone who finds themselves a new-comer to Austin, because he was not only able to help us navigate the different neighborhoods but after a brief consultation, was able to pinpoint exactly what we were looking for.
When you work with Eric, you never feel like you are "out of the loop". He is incredibly easy to contact, communicative, and doesn't leave you waiting for updates. In addition, his office staff hold to the same standard of ethics, which lead to a smooth transaction from start to finish.
What put Eric above the rest were the actions he took AFTER our closing, when the previous owners of our new home had decided to leave their former residence in poor condition. Eric stepped in with personal assistance in order to make sure that we began a happy start to our new lives here in Austin. Eric is 100% committed to the satisfaction of his clients, and his dedication shows in everything he does.
I've employed Eric and his team to purchase twice and to sell two properties. So, I feel like I know quite a bit about how they work, and I couldn't give them a higher recommendation.
On the sell side: Eric is very systematic and thorough, and selling my first home I talked to quite a few realtors, I was really comfortable with Eric and his team, never feeling like I was asking a stupid question, and I asked a ton of questions. He has a great team of staff and contractors that helped me stage the homes, photograph the homes, last minute repairs to help the value, and they marketed the heck out of the homes. He gave me great advice with regards to pricing and strategy. We sold with multiple offers on one property (above asking) in a hotter area of town within 24 hours of listing and we sold very close to list price on a second property in a less hot market. He was available and promptly returned calls and emails. After we were under contract, he helped us negotiate repairs and kept us informed until we successfully closed. A+ all around.
On the purchase side: Eric is available, informative, and honest. He or Bailey were always available to view any property within 24 hours, usually just a few hours and they helped me look at the pros and cons of each property. I wasn't rushed in any way, and again I was comfortable looking at enough homes to make sure I got exactly what I wanted each time. Eric provided honest opinions of each neighborhood and the market value of each property. In short, he didn't just try to get a quick sale, but really helped me through the process (This proved it's value as my first purchase through eric we sold under a year for a substantial increase in price)
I have recommended Eric to a number of friends and family and will continue to do so. He's a true advocate for his clients and I absolutely enjoy working with him, I hope to never move again, but if I do I know who I'm calling first to sell.
I have known Eric Bramlett since we bought our first home in Texas with him five years ago and I would still recommend him as a realtor. He knows the Austin market and will be able to provide you with the insight you need to make an informed decision about selling or buying a home. One of the things I appreciate about him is that he is very accessible and prompt in his correspondence, I also like the fact that he doesn't push you into making decisions. He is very easy to work with and when its all said and done you will consider him a friend.
I was referred to Eric by a friend a few months ago. I was considering another rental property (gotta pay for the kid's college somehow). This will be my second rental property, but its been more than 10 years since I purchased my first so Eric has been helping understand which emerging areas of Austin still have upside for appreciation and balancing that with cash-flow. Right now is bad time to make a mistake as many areas are overpriced from an investment standpoint.
Eric's knowledge of the market, the city, and the industry is really impressive
I have looked at a few options with Bailey and while I haven't pulled the trigger on anything yet, I have had a really good experience so far.
I know I will find something that will work out well and I have feel really comfortable with Eric and Bailey.
I truly recommend Eric & his team to anyone who needs help in the Austin real estate market!
Eric sold my Austin rental home in March 2017. Highly recommended, he knows his business well. I'm an out of state owner from CA who's active in real estate in my home state. I think my real estate experience gives me insight into what most agents are lacking, and I was impressed by Eric.
Eric has strong analytical skills. He can break down issues into the underlying parts and then present you with an menu of recommended actions. I like this approach because it gives you the ability to make an informed decision on your own. There's no high pressure sales tactics; he was very patient in our discussions. He lays out the facts, gives you options with potential pros/cons, and you make your decision.
I needed someone who could handle the sale without my local presence. My sale was challenging because it was a rental with some deferred maintenance. He has a great team of local vendors and is also well versed with repairs, which furthers his understanding and ability to analyze potential situations.
Eric's goal was in line with my goals. We first listed my home in late 2016. The Austin market is very seasonally cyclical and we received several offers, but none that were high enough. Instead of pushing to close on a offer lower than what I felt was acceptable, he suggested we take the house off the market and return the following spring. Several months later we went back of the market and were able to sell my house successfully.
He is very responsive in all communications and paperwork. Typically, I would receive a response within quickly and if he was busy he would let me know when he would be free. Many agents are so busy nowadays that paperwork gets a back seat to closing deals. As the world gets more litigious, the need for complete and timely paperwork only increases. Eric's back office is well organized. His team makes good use of technology to keep everyone abreast of the current situation and make sure no small item gets left undone.
If you're in need of real estate services in the Austin area, Eric would be first one I would recommend.
Just recently my wife and I began our search for a new home. Several of my close friends suggested Bramlett Residential so after much research I decided to call. The advice I receive in my first conversation with Eric solidified my decision and I knew I this was the group I wanted on my side in our home search and contract negotiations. The attention and treatment I received while working with the staff of Bramlett Residential was second to none! I would strongly recommend Eric and his team to anyone that asks!
Based on the positive online reviews, I contacted Eric and Meredith when I knew that moving to Austin was a strong possibility. Based on our travel schedule, Meredith referred us to Vicki Duran because she would be out of town. Vicki is an absolute gem. We were relocating from out of state and knew nothing about Austin. Over the course of two, 2.5 day trips, Vicki showed us close to 40 houses. We had to figure out commute, schools and budget. Over the course of a month, we were in pretty much daily contact with Vicki about houses we wanted to see, houses we wanted more info on and once we decided on a house, we were in hourly contact with her over the negotiations. Vicki is super responsive via phone, text and email. She is level-headed and good humored. She listens carefully, without judgment, and works very hard. Buying a home halfway across the country can be a very stressful situation, but we felt we were in very capable hands with Vicki. When our closing happened to fall during her family vacation, she still stayed in very close contact with us and made sure there were no last minute issues. She even brought healthy snacks for my kids to munch on in the car!
Vicki Duran was our realtor. I would like to start off by saying I have never worked with a more knowledgeable and caring person. Vicki has helped us buy a house in the past, has just helped us sell a house, and has been beyond wonderful that we have referred her to very close friends and family members. Vicki went out of her way every time we called to accommodate our needs and requests and has always answered immidiately. She is very familiar with Austin and its surrounding cities, which made the process much easier. All we had to do was let her know exactly what our wants and needs were and she did all the work for us. She made the process of buying and selling extremely easy and pain free. I really don't know what else to say other than Vicki is AMAZING and if you are in need of a realtor that actually cares, you must reach out to Vicki! Thank you for everything you have done for us Vicki!
Bailey has been nothing but wonderful to us as our realtor in Austin, TX! We're moving from out of state and has been looking for a realtor to help us find a house down in Austin. That's when I came across Eric Bramlett Residential Real Estate, and saw that they specialize in out of state buyers. Bailey reached out to us after I had sent an inquiry and she's so sweet and so easy to talk to. From our initial conversations, it already seemed to me that Bailey was very familiar with the city and was very honest with us in terms of location and just any details that we should know about moving into Austin. She was so patient with us throughout the entire search process, and spent 3 full days just looking at houses with us. She was very on top of everything, reaching out to all the necessary people, and very eager to help us find our new home. She was also very responsive, through email, phone, or text, and when she was busy she would always remember to reach back to us and didn't forget us. Bailey made the whole process of moving across the country a lot more smoother and easier. Anyone looking for a realtor, I would definitely recommend Bailey from Eric Bramlett!
Vicki Duran was our realtor. We feel very fortunate that we picked Vicki for our search.
Here is our story, we were out of state home buyers and were house hunting an investment home in Austin TX. It is a very challenging task to find a good property without having any prior knowledge about the market conditions, city, neighborhoods and schools. But Vicki made it so incredibly easy for my wife and I to find a suitable property.
She is very warm, calm and patient and really listens and understands your view points and priorities. She is extremely efficient, knowledgeable about the market, and very honest with her advice. You can trust her on the feedback she gives about each property.
We shared countless emails and phone conversations prior traveling to Austin and later spend a total three full days with her, visiting 20 to 25 different properties all around Austin. She planned our schedule to visit each property, lining up a precise list of properties. She even handed us printed pics and details about each property we visited beforehand. She scouted every property and provided correct property details and information about the neighborhood, schools and surrounding areas. This helped us a lot to filter out properties, as she provided feedback on each property along with their pros n cons, taking away all our stress and making it a very easy decision for us at the end.
We were very impressed by the way she handled each appointment to all the properties on the list. She also recommended us a great lender and a terrific property manager to manage the property for us.
Since we closed the house remotely, Vicki took care of a number of significant tasks on our behalf, we would have otherwise had to fly out to Austin again to do those.
We HIGHLY RECOMEND Vicki to anyone else looking for a realtor in Austin!...
We called Eric at Bramlett Residential because he had such a great yelp review! Eric walked us through every step of the process of selling our home. He's extremely knowledgeable and an all around nice guy. There's no B.S. with Eric, he tells it like it is. Which was very helpful and much appreciated to my Husband and Myself. Eric Bramlett and his Team are the best in the business. Talk about Customer Service! I feel very fortunate that we chose to sell our home with Bramlett Residential. We're also working with one of his Buying agent to find our next home and she is also extremely knowledgeable and a pleasure to work with! I would highly recommend Bramlett Residential Services to anyone selling or buying a home!
My wife and I were just recently looking for a house around the Austin area to up-size from our condo. We have been referred to Bramlett Real Estate from a friend and so we decided to go down that road and see what it was all about. From the start, his team was professional, non pressuring and very responsive. We worked mainly with Bailey Moran and we cannot tell you how awesome she was. She helped us with so many things, from the start of the buying process, all the way through the end, She even helped us list our condo and get it ready for rent. We could not be more happy with Bailey and her help, as well as the entire Bramlett team and business partners. Highly recommend and thanks for all you do!!
