very smart. did not fall down on her job at all. she is who she says she is works hard for your protection we had her as our selling agent and our buying agent she fought for us tooth and nail

I got into the home buying process with very little knowledge. Mary Ellen was very patient with explaining each step of the process. From home searching to signing, I learned everything I needed to know (plus much more) to help me I will always recommend her in the future. Thank you for helping me purchase my 1st home! 10/10 would recommend for anyone with no experience or even with experience. Very smooth process with no major issues!

Mary Ellen Franklin is the best. She paid attention to every detail, stayed in touch about all essentials, sold the house in one day -- ONE DAY -- and followed through every stage of the inevitable complications.

Working with Mary Ellen was an absolute pleasure from beginning to end. Her professionalism, patience, and expert guidance made the entire home-selling process smooth and manageable. She was consistently available, responsive, and proactive—especially during the final stages when things became hectic. Despite the chaos of moving and unexpected buyer demands, Mary Ellen remained calm and efficient, handling every challenge with grace. Her thoughtful gestures, like bringing a BBQ lunch during a stressful moving day, showed how much she genuinely cares about her clients. She even attended the closing in person and surprised us with a generous gift card—a personal touch that meant a lot and will be remembered every time we enjoy the new plants it helped us buy. Mary Ellen’s dedication and support turned what could have been a stressful experience into a positive and memorable one. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a knowledgeable, compassionate, and truly exceptional agent.

To say Mary Ellen is the best realtor in Bastrop would be an understatement. She is phenomenal at what she does! She helped us find our dream home in Tahitian Village where she knows every street inside and out. Working with her was a fantastic experience and I’d highly recommend anyone looking for a home in the Bastrop area to give her a call.

Mary Ellen is knowledgeable of the market and the area. She was clear in her communications, great with details, helped with a number of things as my house was on the market while I was living in a different state. She made a tough situation better and was a true pleasure to work with.

Mary Ellen gave us very good advice on pricing and the transaction went very smoothly once we received an offer.

Mary Ellen's knowledge of the area and professionalism made our home buying experience better than we could have hoped for. Her quick responses and determination to help us find what we were looking for was invaluable. She helped us find the perfect new home for us!

Mary Ellen is by far the most experienced and knowledgeable agent I've ever dealt with. She respond quickly to our numerous questions and maintained patience and professionalism throughout the process. This was not the easiest sell because of the financing options available to a uninhabitable home. She went out of her way to arrange and secure financing to include, an improvement loan with a local bank. She worked with us to generate ways to increase interest and viewings of the property. I would highly recommend her and would defiantly utilize her expertise in the future. Thank you!!

Especially appreciative of her fine service in this out-of-state situation and her patience and perseverance through many delays!

Mary Ellen took care of everything. She kept me informed and up-to-date through the process. I highly recommend Mary Ellen.

Mary Ellen is highly recommended. She has the answers due to serving her clients more than 30 years. She always answered me back within minutes of texting her. You will feel comfortable through the process of buying or selling your property. She's the best in Bastrop!!
