Doug Harrington was outstanding in helping me find and buy the perfect land to build our home in the Taylor, TX area. He patiently guided me through every detail, expertly pointing out critical factors like soil, utilities, zoning, flood risk, easements, perc tests, and more—while thoroughly verifying everything to avoid surprises with the county and sellers. He went above and beyond at every step, staying proactive, informative, and responsive to keep the process moving smoothly. I had a ton of questions, and he answered each one clearly and without ever rushing me. My family truly couldn’t have been in better hands. Highly recommend Doug for land purchases!

I had a relatively tricky house sale situation. I was worried I could be underwater but Janette treated me with kindness and patience in every interaction. She really helped connect me with all the resources and knowledge I needed to help me make the best decision I could. We ended up being able to sell at a very fair price and quite quickly too. She was always on top of things, on time, and really worked hard for me and selling my home. If I was still in Texas I would definitely pick her again. Just an amazing person all around, and I am so glad I found her of all people.

Our experience was incredible from start to finish. Didn’t feel like a transaction rather like we had a partner to help us navigate a complicated move. Very communicative, on the ball and helped us find the perfect home in a single day!

As very experienced Realtors who care enough to pay attention to every detail, Doug and Janette are market experts who will guide you easily through your purchase or sale.


We moved to the Austin area from Oregon for work, and buying a house from 2,000 miles away is exactly as stressful as it sounds. Doug made it manageable. He knew the difference between neighborhoods that look similar online but aren't — commute, terrain, school zoning, HOA situation — and he was straight with us when a house didn't fit rather than just trying to get us to an offer. Where he really earned it was on price. We had a hard budget and he didn't waste our time on listings above it. On the home we bought, he read the seller's position accurately and negotiated us a number we were genuinely happy with. He also handled the long-distance logistics — walkthroughs, video tours, inspection coordination We closed and our family is settled. Would recommend him to anyone relocating here.

Doug was great to work with. He is friendly and has helpful suggestions. He knew the area we were moving to and suggested different neighborhoods to look at. I would definitely work with Doug again.

I’m so grateful for the experience I had working with Janette & Doug. From our very first conversation, I felt that I was working with someone who genuinely cared about our goals—not just about completing a transaction. They were patient, knowledgeable, responsive, and always willing to go the extra mile whenever something came up. Buying or selling a home can be overwhelming, but having someone I could trust made all the difference. I always felt informed, supported, and confident that my best interests were being looked after. Their professionalism, dedication, and personal attention exceeded my expectations. I would wholeheartedly recommend Janette & Doug to anyone looking for someone who truly cares about their clients and is willing to do whatever it takes to make the real estate journey a positive and successful experience. I couldn’t have asked for a better agent!

I highly recommend Janette Friend-Harrington of eXp Realty. My house was listed for three months with another agent and received no offers. After switching to Janette, we received two offers within just two weeks. Her professionalism, market knowledge, and dedication made all the difference. Thank you, Janette, for an excellent job

Janette Friend-Harrington is a professional real estate person with years of experience and a warm heart. Her integrity makes her completely trustworthy. Over the years our family has been guided through several real estate dealings by Janette. I would gladly recommend her to anyone wanting to arrange a sale of property.

Was able to bring us to contract in about 2-1/2 weeks. Keeps us informed throughout the transaction . Very professional .
