We’ve purchased houses before, but this was our first time selling one we owned. Before I had to deal with the unexpected challenges potential buyers can bring—like low offers and audacious “credit” requests—I was sure I could have been a great realtor. But I was completely wrong! Selling a house is more than just putting ads online and in the paper, answering lots of calls and emails to find the right people, and having open houses. A great realtor ends up being like a therapist in a surprising way. It can be tough to say goodbye to a place you’ve lived in for years, and it’s important to have someone who really cares about you and knows how to guide you through the whole process with the right advice. Lauren has the hard-earned experience to help you sell your home, and she backs it up with True Grit!

Lauren is the best realtor I've worked with in Austin. We all know that the market now is very tough, but her poise and professionalism navigating these challenges make her the cream of the crop. We've lived here for 20 years and have had worked and interacted with numerous realtors for business and personal reasons and I give her my highest recommendation possible. From start to finish she was an exceptional communicator, organized, and methodical. Despite bumps in the road, which are expected with any real estate transaction, she knew how to troubleshoot and we still achieved our goal on the date and without surprises. She was always one step ahead. She is thoughtful, realistic, and supportive throughout the process. And most importantly she delivers!!! Without Lauren, I know that our house would not have yet sold and I also wouldn't have my sanity. Protect her at all costs!

My wife and I are new to New Braunfels and were unfamiliar with the area, neighborhoods, and points of interest. Lauren was instrumental in helping us find the perfect home and location. She took the time to understand what mattered most to us and came fully prepared each time we toured homes — from established neighborhoods to new builds. We ultimately chose a new build next to a greenbelt and close to downtown Gruene, and Lauren’s guidance made that decision easy and confident. Because we were living out of state, Lauren went above and beyond by coordinating a third‑party inspection company to be our eyes on the ground. She worked closely with the inspectors to identify issues with the quality of the build, then partnered with the Builder to ensure those issues were resolved. She applied that same diligence when we discovered potential drainage concerns adjacent to our property. Lauren engaged directly with both the Builder and the Developer to drive improvements — even after closing — which speaks volumes about her commitment to her clients. Lauren also simplified the closing process by coordinating with our Realtor in New Mexico to ensure a seamless transition from closing in NM to closing in TX. All we had to do was show up; everything was organized, prepared, and ready for an easy, stress‑free closing. Lauren’s professionalism, advocacy, and genuine care made our relocation experience exceptional. We couldn’t have asked for a better partner in this process.

The house needed a paint touch up and some flooring clean up completed to make it look it's best. Leah had the home staged to show each area used to it's best potential. The planning and work that went into getting ready for market brought out a number of buyers on day one. Leah handled the deal quickly and efficiently, negotiating a lease back that allowed us to finish the school year and move on our timeline. It was an excellent transaction.

Lauren has been a wonderful partner. We relocated from out of state, and she was great about scouting ahead so that we could target our limited time in town. She was quick to respond to questions and a great source of local knowledge. She was great with negotiations and made sure we understood to local market options and fair pricing. The team was organized and the process was made very clear and communicated well. I strongly believe she went above and beyond for us, and would recommend her to anyone. Thank you!

We cannot recommend Cassie enough!!! She made this the most seamless and easy real estate transaction ever. She went above and beyond to make sure each showing was perfect! Negotiated on our behalf beautifully. There weren't any surprises and she communicated throughout the whole process until close. We look forward to working with her again in the future.

Cassie was incredible. She gave us the perfect advice and supported us throughout the process. Two significant life changes for us from buying a home to selling one and Cassie was instrumental for us on both. She was a true partner and gave great direction. We are so thankful we found her.

Working with Lauren was such a wonderful experience! We came into the process unsure of which area of town we wanted to call home, and she was incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and supportive every step of the way. She took the time to truly listen to what mattered most to us and helped us explore different neighborhoods without ever making us feel rushed or pressured. We ended up buying a condo in South Austin and couldn’t be happier!

After interviewing three highly regarded agents, we ultimately chose Leah Petri and the Petri Group to represent the sale of our beloved 70-acre Lake Travis ranch with over 1,400 feet of water frontage — and we could not be happier with that decision. This is an incredibly unique and complex property with so many features and possibilities for a buyer it required much more than a standard listing approach. Leah immediately stood out for her deep market knowledge, strategic pricing guidance, and her ability to clearly communicate the technical and lifestyle value of the property to qualified buyers. She understood not only what made the ranch exceptional, but also how to position it in a way that resonated with the right audience. Leah sold the property for a premium price in record time, and the entire process from start to finish was seamless. Her communication was excellent throughout, her professionalism was unmatched, and she consistently made us feel informed and at ease during every stage of the transaction. But first and foremost, Leah always had, and protected, our interests throughout the entire selling process. We are incredibly grateful for her hard work, expertise, and dedication. We consider ourselves clients for life and would enthusiastically refer Leah Petri and the Petri Group to anyone looking for best-in-class representation.

Working with Lauren was truly an amazing experience! She was always available, quick to respond and truly invested in helping us find the right fit. Lauren was also incredibly patient and gave us honest advice and real insight into the Austin market. She is a true gem!

Leah Petri and Jenn Larson were exceptional from start to finish. Our home in Westlake was expertly positioned, and thanks to their strategy and execution, we received multiple offers in just 6 days on the market and ultimately closed 13.29% over our asking price. What truly set Leah apart was her hands-on, full-service approach. She coordinated everything—from landscapers and painters to thoughtful design updates and lighting fixture swaps—all of which made a meaningful impact on our final sales price. Every recommendation was intentional and value-driven, we’re so glad we followed their advice! Her team operates at an incredibly high level, making the entire process feel seamless and well-managed. Communication was consistent, proactive, and clear throughout—we always felt like a priority. If you’re looking for a team that delivers a true concierge experience paired with outstanding results, Leah Petri is the one to call. We couldn’t recommend her more highly and plan to call her again for a future sale!

We worked with Leah Petri on the sale of our family compound in Boot Ranch, Fredericksburg, and could not have been more impressed with the experience. We originally engaged Leah after she helped us purchase a condo in Judges Hill so we could visit our son at the University of Texas. From the very beginning, Leah earned our trust by taking the time to educate us on Austin neighborhoods, market dynamics, and long-term value. Based on that experience, we felt confident hiring her again—this time to list a very special property in Boot Ranch. After unsuccessfully trying to sell the property with another realty company, Leah immediately stood out with her proactive and thoughtful marketing plan. She leveraged a wide range of marketing tools, worked collaboratively with other brokers in the region, hosted events, and consistently drove interest and traffic to the property. Her approach was strategic, hands-on, and clearly well informed by experience. Leah brought us our first offer and handled the entire contract-to-closing process with absolute professionalism. Communication was clear, timelines were managed carefully, and we always felt that our interests were being prioritized. We are clients for life and have already referred Leah to several friends. If you are looking for a knowledgeable, proactive, and trusted real estate advisor—whether in Austin or the Texas Hill Country—Leah Petri is exceptional
