Petri Group

Our family planned to move to Austin from Miami last October. I was referred to Leah Petri at Gottesman and she immediately went to work. She is a native Austinite and provided us with helpful information about Austin, the different neighborhoods, school options, restaurants and attractions. We were not prepared for the unusual Austin market. Leah educated us about the market, the economy and future growth guiding us to make the most informed decision possible for a long term real estate investment. Beyond that, we had a very specific type of house in mind and were not willing to deviate from what we wanted, an architectural gem. Leah showed us possibly hundreds of homes in an 8 month time span. She was patient and professional by using her many resources including private market listing (we had never even heard of that), networking with people in the real estate business and coming soon listings. Leah unturned every stone in our areas of interest until she unearthed the perfect home meeting every single one of our criteria. She guided us through the negotiations and overcame the several hurdles until we finally closed. She provided us a timeline with deadline dates of things that had to be completed prior to close. Please keep in mind, that this was our 8th home purchase so we thought we were veterans but clearly we had a lot to learn and were so grateful to have Leah as our advocate in this tedious process. After the close, Leah was hands on deck by even coming over and helping to arrange furniture and gave us every possible resource from handyman to gardeners etc. She went above and beyond and exceeded our expectations in every possible way. If you are considering a home purchase, then you need Leah Petri and the Gottesman team to represent you. If and when we need to sell a home, they will be the ones we call.
