Kristen is a amazing real estate agent. Very professional and knowledgeable will
Go to bat for you. We were building a house in marble falls the process very slow at times. At times we’re getting consistent updates. Kristen would always help us out and find out what’s going on. Make sure they got the job done. I highly recommend her.
If I could summarize my experience with Kristen in one word, it would be EXCEPTIONAL. Kristen went above and beyond from the very beginning. Her qualities that stood out to me were – effective communication, market knowledge, and speed! Everything with Kristen was quick and efficient. She found us a wonderful home in Spicewood for a great price, and of course, she did it off-market! We will definitely use her on future real estate transactions. Thank you for everything, Kristen!
I've worked with Kristen on multiple occasions and her professionalism and area knowledge are outstanding. She has a great, calming demeanor and is an excellent negotiator. I certainly recommend her for your real estate needs!
Kristen Balke is an extremely responsive realtor with an extensive knowledge in the field. Kristen made the process of finding a home in Dripping Springs stress-free and even enjoyable! I always felt that Kristen had my best interest in mind. She helped me to navigate through a difficult time to find a home as both an ally and as an advisor. I cannot imagine a better experience and I look forward to referring other people to Kristen for the same excellent experience!
JC Adams made my first home buying experience easier than I could have imagined. He stayed in touch with me for almost 3 years as I prepared for purchasing my first home. When I let him know I was ready to start looking he made himself available right away to meet regarding what I wanted in a home. He showed me the perfect house at an unbeatable price on the first day. He made the process so easy I would sometimes ask, "Isn't there more I need to do?" I would highly recommend JC as he provides professionalism while also taking the time to get to know you personally and finding the best home fit for your wants and needs.
My wife and I were relocating to Austin and while searching for homes online we came across a relocation guide offered by Realty Austin. Lucky for us, JC was the realtor that responded in regards to our inquiry. He reached out to us by email to see if we'd received the guide and had any questions and asked if we'd be interested in a short conversation so he could learn about our situation. During this first call, he learned about why we were moving and what we were interested in for a new home. He set up a portal for us to check out some homes online where we could note comments, likes, dislikes, etc. Keep in mind this was more than a year away from when we told him we were targeting a move, but he just wanted to get us used to the market, styles of homes, and different areas of Austin. Forward a couple of months and we were ready to make a physical trip to scout some properties and meet with JC and a few other realtors we had met online. After meeting in person, we felt a connection with JC on a personal level and felt that he'd done the little things such as understanding our situation of why we were relocating and what we were looking for in a property, so we decided to use him as our realtor. I think on this scouting trip we spent about two days with him driving to different areas and looking at various homes that were for sale. He did this knowing that we were still a year away from moving, he didn't have to spend all this time with us but he did because he cares about his clients and loves to show homes. It was a good thing we did, because we ended up looking at a new construction builder that met all of our requirements on our last day of the trip. We flew home and then later called JC and let him know that we found the builder that we wanted to use. A couple of months later we flew back out and signed the contract, this was May 2018. We closed in Aug. 2019. JC didn't go away during this build process. He was closely involved throughout the process and served as our proxy checking on the house construction process while we were still living out of state. He always responded quickly to our questions either via email or phone, depending on the urgency of the question. He helped guide us through the entire build process, including walking us through an inspection, lender selection, as well as inspectors punch list for the builder. In my opinion, JC went above and beyond his duties as a real estate agent and I would highly recommend him to anyone I know looking for a home as well as use him again for any future real estate transactions.
Very understanding of what we want in home, very patient, very helpful, very friendly, knowledgeable, has kept contact with us continuously on the information needed, has kept in contact with us after we rented our home and hope to help us in the future to buy a home.
My wife and I were looking for a home for a very special reason and we were short on time. We met with Haval and he immediately put us at ease. He listened to our story and understood what we were looking for from the beginning and how important it was. He was extremely responsive, always texting or calling us back immediately, any time we had a question. He’s very knowledgeable and always took time to explain things. When we got discouraged or worried, Haval was there to put our minds at ease. He even took the time to come to our closing. We highly recommend Haval. We couldn’t have gotten through this process without him.
Eric worked with my girlfriend and I to purchase our first home in Austin, TX in March 2014. We found Eric based on his outstanding online reviews and after being less than satisfied with our first realtor. After speaking with Eric via phone and seeing the quality and detail of follow-up he provided, we knew he was the Realtor for us. We were first time homebuyers, trying to find the perfect home in a terrible buyer's market (very high demand and very low inventory). From day 1, Eric listened to what we wanted, explained to us what we could reasonably expect and why, was very patient as we narrowed down what we wanted and went out of his way to help us find the perfect home.
Eric or his assistant Bailey were always available to show us homes within 1 day of us requesting to see a home (often same-day!) which was necessary due to the current Austin market where most of the homes we were interested in were being listed and sold within 1-3 days. Because this was our first home and represented such a huge purchase for us, we were very picky and Eric and Bailey showed us a lot of homes before we found the perfect one. Eric helped us successfully navigate through (and avoid) a number of over-priced homes and other bad situations that we would have likely fallen victim to without Eric's guidance. Eric was all that we could have asked for in a Realtor and a whole lot more. He was always eager and able to educate us on topics from expected home appraisal values to financing options/lenders to quality contractors and advice on structuring our offers to be competitive in multiple-offer situations and through the entire process, never once made us feel rushed or pressured us to make a decision. He constantly reminded us that despite all of the metrics, we ultimately had to buy a home that 'felt right' to us.
We will definitely be using Eric and Bramlett Realty to prepare and sell our town-home and while we have already successfully referred some of our friends to Eric, we will certainly refer additional friends to Eric over the coming months and years. Thank you Eric and Bailey!!!
Nancy was great and really helpful in all aspects. She provided us with all the information and help that we needed in buying the house of our choice. She is very prompt in communication and always gets back with answers to your questions asap.I would recommend her undoubtedly.
I worked with Andrew Hackemack and it was a very positive experience. Andrew and I worked together for 3 deals over a few years - 2 apartment rentals and a home purchase - in the Austin area. Andrew was both professional and personable. He worked with me closely on various properties we researched, providing timely comps and insights. The rental and purchase-closing experiences all ran smoothly. I'd highly recommend Andrew.
I worked with Andrew Hackemack for my latest move and I cannot express how wonderful the experience was. Andrew takes time to understand what your living needs are and makes recommendations that have your best interest in mind. He went above and beyond for me, and I can't recommend enough for anyone else!
I worked with Andrew for over 4 months to find my dream condo! Best follow ups and best customer service! Could not recommend a better realty agent!
We worked with Andrew Hackemack and were always impressed with his knowledge, timeliness, and ability to help us turn around offers quickly. As first time home-buyers, we would have been lost without his insight and support. Very thankful to work with such a great team! Plus, we found a place we love without exceeding our budget.
Andrew Hackemack helped me find the perfect place for me and my pup. He listened to what I wanted and was patient with working with me to find a place that suited my needs. If I had questions or concerns about anything, he was always available to have a discussion and would provide honest, genuine feedback. The personal attention that he provided was refreshing and made the whole home-finding process less stressful. Highly recommend working with him!
Big thanks to Andrew Hackemack for helping me navigate one of the craziest markets I've ever seen. Andrew went above and beyond to help us make competitive offers and keep everything moving smoothly throughout the entire process. Would highly recommend him to anyone hunting for a new place!
I recently worked with Andrew and my experience working with him was amazing! He helped make the whole process simple and easy. Before I reached out to him, I was overwhelmed with options and listing sites. He helped organize and prioritize properties I
was interested in, and quickly arranged viewings for each of those. He gave his honest opinion, and helped me find the perfect place to live that checked ALL the boxes. I highly recommend working with Andrew.
I loved working with Andrew Hackemack who made finding the just-right home way easier than I thought it would be.
We loved working with Andrew - we were first time homebuyers, and he was very patient with us as we figured out what we wanted in our home. Andrew was very responsive, and walked us through every step of the process. He was friendly and enjoyable to work with, and gave us a great sense of confidence that he knew what he was talking about. We appreciated his flexibility with our hectic schedules, and how honest and upfront he was throughout the home buying process. He was also very knowledgeable about pricing and helped us stay competitive in a hot market. He made the homebuying process as smooth as we could have hoped for, and we were able to find and close on a home that we love on a relatively quick timeline! We love our new home and are very appreciative to have worked with Andrew!
We met several realtors and made a decision to go with because Andrew understood the urgency my family and I had to list our unit. He gave us individual and personal attention. He really knows the market!
