He calls and emails with updates. Knows the market very well. We had issues with a roof claim. He advised the buying agent how we were going to handle it. Got it in writing to protect us. He had great advice and made the sale easier for us. We will use him again.
Buyer of 161 Serene Hollow, Buda
There are not enough stars in the world to rate Joseph Cardona! He graciously helped us find a rental home when we moved back to Texas in 2025. We were disappointed to learn we could not renew this lease and would need to look into purchasing a home one year sooner that we expected. The first person I texted was Joseph. Immediately he was happy to help. Throughout the entire viewing, contracting, negotiating, and closing processes he made us feel like we were his only clients (even though he is incredibly busy). He was always easy to contact and very quick to respond. Not only is he professional, he adds a personal touch that really makes you feel heard and cared for. He makes you feel like family and he understands the importance and weight that purchasing a home entails. He talked me off the ledge multiple times when the stress was getting to me. He always remained professional but also was never afraid to stand up and advocate for what was best for my family. Please do yourself a favor and work with Joseph - you will not regret it!
Buyer of 224 Pettigrew Path, Buda
Joseph was extremely knowledgeable about the market and provided great guidance throughout my buying process. He was quick to respond to ALL of my questions/concerns along the way. He went the extra mile consistently and kept me up to date. He was super attentive to all of the details from making an offer, all the way to closing with the Title Company and that gave me peace of mind the whole time. I highly recommend Joseph if you are looking for an agent that hustles, takes care of business and looks out for his clients best interest.

Buyer of 136 Eaton Lane, Austin
I was so impressed by Michelle’s breadth and depth of knowledge about not only the housing market in Austin, but also practical things I needed to know when buying a house. I remember talking through the inspection report with her and she was a wealth of information. She was always very easy to reach and anticipated questions and helped me think things through. She’s an amazing and caring realtor and I highly recommend her!
Buyer of 109 Douglas Way, Kyle
Hello . I am writing this review for Michelle Poremski because my wife and I loved how she took care of us during the whole buying process. Being a first time homeowner was kinda scary and filled with uncertainty. Michelle’s professionalism and patience with us is what did it for me . Every question we had was answered and explained in a way that we could understand. On top of that, I believe she was in her second trimester and never complained once about all the time we took looking at the houses and all the walking we were doing . Michelle was definitely getting her steps in . I would gladly recommend her to anyone in the market looking to buy.

Buyer of 372 Tobin Drive, Buda
We initially reached out to Laura when we weren’t even sure we were ready to commit to purchasing a home. We simply wanted to start looking and get a feel for what was out there. From the very beginning, she was incredibly understanding and patient. She arranged tour after tour, continued to meet with us as we explored our options, and never once made us feel pressured to make a purchase or rush into a decision. When we finally found ourselves ready to consider making an offer, Laura was right on top of everything! She communicates quickly and thoroughly, is incredibly knowledgeable, and helped remedy any issues we encountered with lenders, inspectors and the many moving parts of the home buying process. As first time homebuyers we had a LOT to learn and Laura made every step feel manageable. She was always willing to explain things, answer our questions, and walk us through the process. She was also so thoughtful and intentional about understanding what we were looking for and what would ultimately be the best fit for our family. I can also easily see how wonderful she would be as a listing agent. She’s organized, responsive, knowledgeable, and takes pride in what she does. Whether you’re buying or selling Laura genuinely looks out for her clients, their best interests, and their investment. We are so grateful to Laura for helping us with such a big milestone of purchasing our first home. If you’re looking for a realtor who is patient, personable, knowledgeable, and truly has your best interests at heart, we couldn’t recommend Laura more!
Buyer of 181 Stone Crest Boulevard, Buda
Very pleased to have worked with Laura for my first time home buying experience. She is very knowledgeable about the Buda area, and a fast and effective communicator. Made the entire process a lot smoother than I ever expected it to be. Will certainly recommend her.
Seller of 312 Triumph Rd, Buda
Working with Laura was an absolute game-changer for our family. Selling a home from three hours away is no small feat, but she handled every obstacle with total professionalism and unmatched dedication. From day one, she went completely above and beyond. She kept our online listings fresh, hosted consistent open houses, and was always just a text away, answering our questions late at night and on weekends. When we faced a last-minute showing and couldn't get a lawn service out in time, her husband even stepped up to mow the yard for us. It was a long, bumpy road that tested us with three different buyers and unexpected foundation issues. Through every single hurdle, Laura kept us grounded, advocated fiercely for us, and got us across the finish line. If you need a realtor who truly treats your home sale like her own, look no further!
