"Great communication. Was able to do the appraisal and provide the report in a very timely manner. Highly recommend!"

"My husband I and used Mike M, Peter D, and the Guaranteed Rate team previously with our home purchase and refinance in Orange County, CA. They were great then and actually approached us with a way to refinance and save hundreds per month by doing so. We wouldn’t have known about the refinance opportunity otherwise. We knew we found a great team for all our mortgage needs from that point on. Mike, Peter, and his Guaranteed Rate were the natural choice when my husband and I decided to make a huge move from California to Florida. When we found the home we wanted to purchase, we called Guaranteed Rate. The local real estate agent strongly resisted us going with Guaranteed Rate and insisted we use a local lender she was familiar with. We told her no thanks; we have our team for life. By the end of the deal, the same real estate agent raved about how amazing Guaranteed Rate is and how wonderful they were to work with. This is especially true because 2 days before closing, Hurricane Michael hit closeby our new house. While we thankfully were not impacted, all mortgages had to be closely inspected in nearby counties. Guaranteed Rate made frequent calls to everyone involved in our real estate deal and quickly got us back on track to close in record time. Folks working with other lenders didn’t get so lucky and some are still being delayed. Thanks again to Mike, Peter, and the entire Guaranteed Rate team for making our home ownership dreams come true again!!"

"Before Beth listed our condo, she walked us through some of the improvements that would bring the best return on investment. She was honest, friendly, and very easy to work with. She helped us price our condo at a competitive, aggressive price point, and we were under contract in 7 days.  At that time, Austin was at the height of its real estate heyday, and the market was insane. Beth used our wish-list criteria to help us narrow down what part of the city we wanted to live in. She was full of information, tidbits, advice--but never once did I feel pressured or overwhelmed; just helped in the right direction. <br /> Beth was a reassuring voice throughout the process. When we found a home we loved, she made sure that we got our bid in at the right time, and it was accepted 48 hours after we first viewed the home (and chosen over five other competing bids). She made sure we had all our paperwork ready when it was necessary, recommended competent and trustworthy associates, and made the process extremely easy. There was almost nothing stressful about buying our home; it amazes me to look back and say that, but it's true.  <br /> We have no plans to move anytime soon, but I would never consider using another real estate professional other than Beth Barlow. <br />"

"He was prompt in calling me back for an appointment, fit the appointment in around our tight time schedule of visiting my mom's house on Long Island, and delivered the complete, detailed appraisal with photographs and comps on Sunday by email, a full two days before he had promised it. <br /> At his visit, he was professional and pleasant. <br /> Since my mom and I were selling her New York house from a Illinois, we wanted to know what it was worth before speaking to several potential buyers and before engaging a real estate broker. <br /> We were very satisfied with Larry's services. <br />"

"<p>Josh answered his own phone on the first ring, did not put me on hold or promise to call back, but TOOK MY CALL. That was the first of many contacts where Josh was literally ALWAYS there for me night and day, whether by phone, email, or text. I called Josh because my husband and I were in need of good real estate advice about whether or not to buy the home we were currently renting, which had just gone on the market unexpectedly. I selected Josh based on topnotch Angie's List reviews. Josh's help was INCREDIBLE. He listened carefully, asked good questions, provided expert input, and after several visits with us and a tour of our rental house, gave us some solid, thoughtful, analytical input that helped us decide not to buy the house. Then when we went in search of something else to buy, Josh was right on task for getting us appointments to see appropriate houses and helping us find what we wanted in a very short time. Josh is a real pro. He is patient, knowledgeable, calm under pressure, a fine communicator, and uses all the most up-to-date technology in an easy, friendly way to get the job done with the fewest headaches for the client. He works fast without ever seeming rushed or frantic. He knows his field incredibly well, is very well-connected, answers questions with an open mind, does not impose his ideas in the client, and has a calm, helpful demeanor. In a white hot sellers' market last summer, with a small inventory of homes available in Austin in our price range, Josh nevertheless helped us move calmly and carefully from the day I called him to discuss our rental home (July 3, 2013) to Day One of our search for another home to buy (July 9, 2013) to successful closing on a home we love and could afford (Aug. 21, 2013). That was close to a miracle! Josh also recommended an outstanding mortgage broker. That really helped us get the job done, too. I am 62 years old and had never before had any desire to buy a house, yet when the time was right, Josh made it all turn out beautifully. I have worked with many professionals in my long and happy life, and Josh is as good as it gets.</p> <br />"

"After searching Angie's List for a realtor and after reading the reviews, we contacted a couple of different realtors. Tausha was the first to respond and sent a questionnaire to narrow down our home search. After replying to the questionnaire, we met with Tausha at her office. Tausha was very personable and provided us with a wealth of useful information to navigate the real estate process. She also set up our personal website with our specific parameters. After sifting through all of the listings and visiting several homes with Katy, Tausha's  assistant, we finally found the perfect home. Tausha was also instrumental during the home inspection phase as well as helping during the closing process. Tausha still remains in contact even after our closing.  We were also pleasantly surprised Tausha donates a portion of her commission to charity! Tausha and Katy were very helpful guiding us through the very stressful home buying market in Austin. We would definitely recommend Tausha for any potential home buyer in the Austin area! <br />"

"This is the second time I've hired Chris. First to inspect our home last year during a real estate transaction and just today to provide expert advice on removing 2 small walls in the house. His home inspections are thorough and professional. I remember the price being a little higher than the big companies, but you get what you pay for. I'm still working through the list of issues he identified and they were all spot-on. He didn't miss anything. For the structural inspection today, again beyond expectations. It was a challenging problem to check if one wall was load-bearing because the A/c unit was mounted directly above it in the attic. At first he determined that it was likely load bearing as best he could and gave me the options. I was disappointed but that was what I needed to know. Later, after checking the other wall i asked about, he came back with a new plan to check the first wall. He asked if he could pull up a platform board next to the a/c that was nailed down but had nothing on top. I agreed, and sure enough once he pulled it up he was quickly able to determine that the wall was actually between the joists and not load-bearing. That's why I like him. He doesn't walk away until he figures it out. That double check potentially saved me thousands in bringing in a contractor to install a beam, inspect, etc. I will absolutely call Chris for any future inspections/advice/expert opinion on anything related to the house. Thanks Chris!"

"From start to finish everything went so smoothly. She explained all the processes every step of the way. She is very knowledgeable since this has been her passion for so long. She loves what she does and it shows in her work. I couldn’t imagine not having her in my house selling or house buying process!!! She’s not just a real estate lady, she’s my real estate friend!!!"

"Overall things went well. There was a little bit of a problem at the tail end of the sale. It took three months for her to actually complete the real estate transaction. Other than that, they did a pretty good job. Up until the end, they had actually been excellent."

"She was very knowledgeable about the market and did a good job understanding what I was looking for. She was pleasant, personable and a joy to work with. She made herself available through the whole process in case I had any questions or concerns. I will definitely be using Carla for my next real estate deal in Austin and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a personal or investment property in the Austin area.   <br /> <br /> <br />"
