We were so excited to work with Jean Phillips again on the sale of our home. Her attention to detail and knowledge of the market is unmatched, and she made a stressful process, seamless and easy. We were able to sell our home for top dollar, and Jean advised us through the negotiations like the professional she is. She is so kind, caring, and understanding. I highly recommend anyone work with Jean if they are looking to buy or sell a home in Austin and surrounding areas.

Friend loyalty always help
Cindy was always available to answer our questions--and I am sure we had more than most. She is very experienced with the tumultuous Austin market. Her long term community relationships allow her to communicate easily with sellers and buyers, agents and mortgage brokers, real estate attorneys, renters and handymen and roofers. We could not have asked for a better experience.
Dru has consistently gone above and beyond in helping us buy a home. We’ll always work with her moving forward.
Diane knows the market and was very clear in her communications so we were always prepared for the next steps of the process. She was very prompt, gave good explanations to all of our questions, and gave very solid and strategic advice.
Ellen goes above and beyond, bringing a sense of calm, vast experience, and exceptional market knowledge to what can be a stressful life transition. This was our fifth relocation, and by far our best experience listing and selling our home. Her expertise and professionalism were invaluable in developing the right pricing strategy, and her creativity and versatility in marketing our property were unmatched. Ellen was referred to us by a trusted neighbor, and we couldn't be more grateful. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for an outstanding real estate professional.
July 13, 2026 Dear Audrey, Mark and I cannot thank you enough for getting Caroline’s dream home in Zilker. It’s one of the biggest moments in her life and in our lives as parents to see this dream manifested. It really has a profound impact on all areas of her life today and the years to come. We truly feel lucky and it’s all because of you. You got the first scoop on this house before it hit the MLS and you got her a house which developers had outbid her on! You work magic. You always said the house that’s meant to be will happen. I thought that was a hopeful sentiment, but you were right. And she could not have a better location! Swimming at Barton Springs, running Town Lake and hiking the greenbelt are her hobbies beyond art. This house is something which she can learn how to do DIY projects in a budget friendly timeline too. Last night I walked throughout Zilker and it’s truly refreshing to see how many original homes are still standing (including our first house) and what a calm and beautiful impact it has on the feel of the streets. Thank you for leading the brigade for keeping older houses and enabling people like our daughter to land in Zilker. Our first house was on Treadwell Street, so she’s returning to her roots. What a lucky girl! We know highly sought after professionals like yourself have bigger clients. You could have easily passed on us, but you didn’t and we’re so thankful for all the attention, thought, care, education and time you put in to land us here today at her closing. Whenever the time comes to selling our house in Barton Hills, we will contact you. If you have anyone who wants a personal recommendation, please let us sing your praises. It’s a really big day for our family, and it could not have happened with anyone else but you. With gratitude, Katherine
We had a great experience with Laura. She's very professional, responsive, thoughtful, and was always available to answer our millions of questions and show us homes. After months of her patience looking at homes, we finally found the perfect home and she made sure we did everything possible to get it. Luck for us, we did and we couldn't be happier! We actually closed on our home the day before our first baby was due, too, which was a miracle after searching for many months. We'd highly recommend Laura to anyone looking to buy (or sell) a home!
Elsa is one of the best realtors we have worked with in our many transactions. We wound up buying a "project." Elsa was instrumental in not only advocating for us, but handled all the inspections, videos, etc. to make the right decisions on the value of the property. She makes you feel like she is with you (and your best interests) every step of the way. She was always ahead of us on getting all the information to make the right calls and never tried to influence the decision. She got the facts, answered questions, and provided multiple perspectives to help us get comfortable on this investment. If you want an experienced and devoted realtor who understands the high-end market and all the nuances that come with it. We highly recommend Elsa.
