What our clients think

“We worked with Christina to sell our old home and to purchase a new one. She was very professional in all our interactions. She responded quickly to our needs and provided prompt feedback. We will definitely be using Christina again in any future real estate dealing

I have had the pleasure of working with Christina on three separate real estate transactions; the sale of my house, the sale of my fiancée’s house, and the purchase of a new home for the two of us. Christina was tireless in working to make certain that both houses would show well, and in helping us with all of the contractual details, including the initial pricing of the houses and handling amendments. In addition, she was an invaluable when we were shopping around for our new house; she made certain that we knew all of the details of each listing that we viewed, and was highly proactive in tracking down properties that fit our needs AND our budget. She is highly knowledgeable, always punctual, exceedingly professional, and personable to boot; absolutely a pleasure to work with. If you’re looking to buy or sell real estate in the greater Austin area, look no further!

“Professional, reliable and always available. Christina walked us through the entire home buying/selling process and made the experience smooth and stress-free. Extremely knowledgeable about the Austin real estate market. I would highly recommend Christina to anyone.”

“I am an executive that has lived in multiple countries, several states and cities, and bought/sold numerous multi-million $$ properties, both residential and commercial. Working with Christina on my most recent purchase (new home in Austin area) was by far the most efficient and professional search/selection/negotiation/close that I have experienced. I highly recommend her, and she will be closing a house for one of my daughters next month. You will be well taken care of.”
