Eric’s Testimonials

Great atmosphere, ensured our home buying experience went smoothly and enjoyable. Always helpful and there to answer questions we had and even answered questions we hadn't reached yet.

We just purchased our first home, and Eric made the whole process extremely easy.   We had a pretty definite idea of the location and style that we wanted.  After our first day looking at houses with him, Eric seemed to really understand our tastes and was able to significantly narrow the field for us and help us find the perfect house.

Despite being a busy season for him, he typically responded to emails and phone calls within an hour, often within minutes.  (And, trust us, we had a lot of questions being first time home buyers.)

Since we were looking at mostly older homes that required fundamental repairs, Eric was also tremendously helpful in helping us gauge the additional money that we would need after closing (and thus how to negotiate a purchase price).   To that end, he plugged us into a seemingly neverending network of electricians, plumbers, foundation repair people, general contractors, etc., which made getting started on the "fixing upping" relatively painless.   He even personally called some contractors on our behalf when we had a mortgage insurance glitch and got someone out to do the work on short notice on the Saturday afternoon before Easter!

So if you're in the market for a real estate agent, we think you can't go wrong by giving Eric a call!

Eric worked with my us for over a year before we found our home. I guess we were a little on the picky side, not sure how many houses Eric showed us over the course of the year but it was quite a few! Eric had us set up to get notices every morning based on our neighborhood preferences, price ranges, etc., and whenever we saw something pop up that we liked we called or emailed him and he would get it set up right away. Overall we found him extremely accessible, friendly, professional, and patient.

On a random Friday night in Feb, 2012 at about 11 PM we were going through our email for the day and we found it. The house had just been listed and given the state of the Central Austin market we knew it would not last long. We emailed Eric and crossed our fingers that we could get in that Saturday. The next morning Eric had the appointment set up. Although we loved the house we had several questions. Eric did an excellent job working with the other agent, getting our questions answered so we could put an offer in that day, and helping us structure our offer so we could make it as attractive as possible. Long story short the offer went in that day, and the sellers accepted the following day. Eric also helped us negotiate a quick closing and was very helpful between offer and closing with getting us access to the house for measurements, appointments, inspections, etc. We closed in March, 2012!

My wife and I have been working with Eric for over a year (yes, a year)...he's THAT patient. Our previous realtor was more like a pushy car salesman, which adds an additional layer of stress to such an important decision. Eric has patiently shown us multiple houses and understands what we're looking for. We still have yet to buy one, but I guarantee you when we do, it'll be with Eric. Would highly recommend him to anyone, especially first-time buyers.
