Buyers

We absolutely love working with our clients and we love nothing more than helping them have a wonderful buying or selling experience. Over the years, our clients have graciously written 1000+ reviews about their experiences on sites like Google, Yelp, & Zillow. We've collected them here.

This review is for Bailey Moran.

I reached out to several real estate companies when I was considering buying a house in Austin. Bailey was the one that responded to my email to Bramlett Partners and from the get-go she was awesome: warm, attentive and helpful. The response was very different from the generic replies I got from other RE companies.

My husband and I are from out of town so all of the initial search was done online. Bailey asked questions to try and tailor the search to what we were looking for and helped us narrow down some areas/neighborhoods to focus on.

When we finally got to visit Austin for an exploratory trip, Bailey drove us all around town while giving us an introduction and the low-down of each neighborhood. We viewed a couple houses, and through this entire process she pointed out details we would have normally missed (e.g. how to tell if the foundation was recently redone) and information that only locals would know. She was super patient with us, and her local knowledge and insight is invaluable. On top of that, she is just super sweet and fun to hang out with.

We hands down recommend Bailey and Bramlett Partners!


Moving from out of state to Austin, my husband and I had little knowledge of Austin. We were looking for an agent that could give us advice and information on different neighborhoods and locations based on our budget and house must haves. Thankfully we chose to work with Bailey Moran and she was the perfect fit! She was able to get to know us and gives us her ideas of locations and homes we hadn't even thought to explore. She was able to work with our demands, as well as a not so easy seller, and made the process of buying our first home in Austin fun and bearable. Bailey navigated the challenges of the process with us and we couldn't have been happier with her work. She is professional, friendly and knowledgeable. We will most definitely utilize her expertise when and if we buy/sell in Austin in the future. Thanks Bailey for helping us find our perfect place!


Kasey Gilliam is not only a great agent, she is an outstanding person. I spent three days with Kasey looking at homes all over the Austin area. She drove our family around to all of our appointments allowing us plenty of time to get to know each other and discuss the properties and areas. There was never a silent moment.

Our family is considering Austin among other cities for a potential relocation. The fact that we weren't prepared to buy immediately didn't change the fact that Kasey treated us as valued clients. She put zero pressure on us, and showed us everything we wanted to see. I've since thought about what it was about Kasey that made our experience with her so pleasant. I realized that she treated us as if she were a family friend. It was as if your brother or mother's best friend happened to be in real estate and you had a genuine advocate on your side who only cared about looking out for you. That's how Kasey made us feel. That she really cared; totally comfortable, totally genuine, and very generous with her time and her life. She shared with us who she was, allowing for a such a genuine connection. She loves what she does and it shows by how easily and eagerly she shows properties.

I'm not sure that Austin will end up being the winning city in our search, but I'd sure love to do business with Kasey. She will have my business forever in Austin. Thank you Kasey.


My boyfriend and I were first time home buyers, and new to the Austin area so we were a bit hesitant starting our home buying. We were set up with Tara and Andrew, and the experience was awesome! I really couldn't imagine us getting through the home buying so quickly and (relatively) stress free without them.

Both Tara and Andrew were very responsive and available whenever we had questions or wanted to check out a property. We super appreciated Tara's honesty when it came to home values. She steered us from an initial perspective house that we loved, but wasn't a great value and ultimately, we're sooo thankful that she did. We ended up finding a house a few weeks later that was better for our budget, and that we loved even more! We never felt pressured, and both Andrew and Tara were proactive and very communicative through the whole purchase process.

We strongly recommend the team at Bramlett Partners Real Estate, and will be back in touch when it comes time to sell :]


My husband and I had the pleasure of working with Will Mackintosh late 2017-early 2018. We wanted to buy some investment property and he came highly recommend. It was the best decision we made, he is superbly knowledgeable about what areas are good for investment and more importantly guided us towards the correct price range so that the investment would make sense. He made the whole process easy and enjoyable for first time investors like us who are understandably stressed about everything. He also recommended a fantastic property management company to take care of our property. All in all, we would absolutely recommend him!


Wow, wow, wow! Working with Ryan to find a new place to live was seamless. I did not feel rushed; he considered the things I wanted and needed in a house and prioritized my comfort and the right fit versus just finding something that would do. He helped me find a place that was a great location, perfect for my dog, with great amenities. Ryan is patient, smart, and hardworking, a perfect combo when trying to find a new place to live. Additionally, Ryan has an eye for design and a brilliant sense of spatial awareness, which is truly key when working with a realtor. I highly recommend working with Ryan Spencer as a realtor to find your next apartment, home, or condo in Austin, Texas.


Vicki Duran is a ROCKSTAR and an angel ~ a very gifted agent! I really challenged her too...

I was purchasing my first home and relocating to Austin from Japan. Not only did I not know the city landscape, I was really unfamiliar with real estate terms and the entire process plus I'd never had a loan in my life. This was a milestone and unchartered territory for me.

Due to a heavy travel schedule, I needed to see as many properties as possible in just two days. I briefed Vicki on my lifestyle preferences and she recommended two areas of town, then sent me listings over a two week period which we shortlisted to 31 for viewing. I thought that would be totally impossible...and I think she did too but we were up for it! Having moved 55 times, I'm lucky to know what I want and could reject places in minutes of entering the properties. We just kept going until my DREAM HOME appeared. It did on day two!!!

Vicki guided me in the negotiations, helped me understand the lending process when I just didn't know what I was doing, and followed up with the process so I wouldn't miss anything. I didn't realize everything an agent has to do. Thank goodness I was blessed with such an angel! When I say the entire process went off without a hitch, that is an understatement! It was JOYFUL and the closing was effortless. I'm so grateful to Vicki for making my homeowner dream come true!


We just closed on our first house and we are grateful to have worked with the firm, specifically with Kasey Gilliam whose service was absolutely top-notch. My wife and I give her our absolute highest endorsement.

The overall transaction went very smoothly and Kasey was in full control throughout. My wife and I are first time home buyers, which comes with a lot of anxiety, yet Kasey kept us calm and confident. Kasey showed she was an excellent listener by showing us highly relevant properties at the beginning. We found one that was pre-market that we loved and Kasey crafted an excellent strategy that worked out perfectly.

There were four attributes in particular that stood out:

  1. analytical nature - Kasey mentioned she was previously a CPA and it showed. We absolutely loved how analytical she was which was incredibly effective for us, since we're of the same mindset. She did great navigating us through so much uncertainty carefully measuring expected risks & rewards.
  2. reliability - she always responded very quickly who was extremely knowledgeable and genuine (e.g. she was unafraid to say she didn't know instead of trying to fake it like I have encountered in the past). No calls or texts were ignored.
  3. reassuring - as first time home buyers she gave us a lot of good and salient information without overwhelming us. She always made sure we understood something before going further. She was calm throughout which gave us incredibly high confidence in her ability.
  4. outcome - most importantly, she delivered the outcome that we desired drove the process with few frictions making it much smoother than anticipated.

This is our first purchase so admittedly I don't have much basis for a comparison. But after reading numerous books and speaking with so many who went through this same process, it's clear Kasey provides a level of service that is among the very best.


Eric is the best Realtor in Austin! He is a really patient person because he has helped me look off and on for the past 3 years. I'm looking in different parts of central Austin and the market changes a lot and has changed a lot over time. Eric has sent over countless emails about price, condition, and neighborhood of every area I can think of because I've changed my mind so much. I can't thank him enough for sticking with me while I pick out my forever home. He has never pressured me or made me feel like I'm taking too long. Eric is a great guy and he'll work really hard for you.


My wife and I worked with Tara McGuire to buy our first home together. We started the search back in December 2018 and took six months to find the right home. During that six month period Tara never pressured us to pick a home. Best of all she is great negotiator when it comes to the contract. We definitely recommend Tara specifically and Eric Bramlett Partners generally.


We could not have asked for a better realtor than KASEY GILLIAM!! Kasey was incredibly proactive, knowledgeable, and highly responsive from beginning to end, even as our circumstances changed. We were only in town for a few days, making our house hunt incredibly time sensitive and to be honest, overwhelming. Kasey was able to tailor the search perfectly and her organization helped us to efficaciously make the perfect choice for our needs. One of the things we were most pleased with was her dedication to seeing the process through until the house was completely closed. We were so comfortable with her professionalism and attention to detail we felt completely at ease having her attend our final inspection and Facetime us. She was incredibly accommodating and thoughtful. Kasey even took the initiative to drive by the house on our closing date to make sure everything looked good. I don't think there is anything we could identify that she could have done better. We would recommend her to friends and family, and seek her out again if we were ever back in the market.


Wish there was something more than five stars!

We worked with Vicki Duran of Eric Bramlett Partners Real Estate to buy our home in Kyle, TX. I cannot recommend her highly enough. We are new Texans, and she knows the area and its neighborhoods so well, she was able to help us pick a neighborhood that is a great fit for us. We love our house! She worked with us remotely at first, keeping us up to date on what was available and answering our endless questions. Then, when it came time to actually buy our home, she was invaluable. She helped us craft a great, successful offer on a home we love, making on-point suggestions that were greatly to our benefit. She assisted in every step of buying our home, from walkthrough to settlement, and then beyond. Her newsletter keeps us up to date on all aspects of living in the Austin area. Vicki is knowledgable, responsive and proactive, and was really a superb ally for us in our homebuying experience. Our outcome would not have been nearly as great without her. I would (and do!) recommend Vicki Duran and Bramlett to ANYONE buying a home in or around Austin. When we are ready to move up/move on, I know exactly who to call!


We just moved to Georgetown from DC and a friend referred us to this agency. We worked with Vicki Duran, who helped us throughout the whole process by identifying the best options for our family size, work commutes, and wish list. We had a few hiccups right before closing and Vicki advocated for us until the final signing to ensure everything went smoothly. We absolutely recommend working with Vicki and her team.


Vicki Duran was referred to me by a friend a mine who had previously used her services. Right from the first time I connected with Vicki, she has always been well-prepared, action-oriented and knowledgeable not only about the housing market but all the peripheral services as well. Vicki is extremely detail oriented and took every single one of my requirements very seriously. Because of my busy schedule, I was not able to go and see the property myself, but could trust her to close on the property remotely. She was able to close the property my choice in just 3 weeks, negotiated major fixes, connected me to a good mortgage company (I did my own research but this was the best), arranged for a painter, and provided reco for property mgmt services! Ever since, I have already referred her to multiple friends and families who are also planning to purchase property in Austin area. Vicki is awesome!


My husband and I worked with Will Mackintosh. From the first time I reached out through the closing process I couldn't have imagined it going any better or smoother. My husband and I were what I thought was a tricky situation. Due to work we were each coming from a different state and only had a full weekend to look at houses on both sides of town. I know Will is a busy man but he made us feel like we were his number one priority. We were happily surprised we found a house that weekend and Will made all the E-paper work extremely easy for us, even attended walk throughs we couldn't be there for, and referred us to an amazing mortgage broker. I was so happy we found Bramlett Partners and Will. Without a doubt I couldn't imagine using anyone else in the future and definitely would refer them to any family and friends needing a realtor.


Kasey Gilliam was AMAZING!! As a first home buyer I had little knowledge about the process or what it looked like (and was SUPER nervous) -- Kasey made this super easy and helped me understand everything that was happening along the way. Kasey clued me in on a ton of stuff that she didn't necessarily need to and I truly felt that she had my best interest in mind from start to finish. She answered every question I had right away and was super flexible and quick to get me in to see properties at times that worked with my schedule. She took the time to go over all the documentation with me to ensure I understood what I was signing and agreeing to, she showed up to every inspection and helped research some issues and reached out to her contacts so we could get an estimate of possible repairs. By the time this process was over I felt like an experienced home buyer due to her knowledge and everything she shared with me and made sure I knew.

I feel truly blessed to have been a client of Kasey's --I've spoke to many others who have gone through the processes and often times heard horror stories of their experiences due to their realtor. I still can't believe I got so lucky to work with Kasey! I have recommended her to every person I talk to! She is experienced, professional and very personable. I love my new house and don't plan on every leaving -- but if I am every in the market for another purchase I can only hope that Kasey would take me on again!


We worked with Vicki Duran, to buy our first home. It was a pleasure to work with her. She was awesome! She was very knowledgable about the housing market and guided us all the way through the process with ease and confidence. If we ever had questions or needed anything from her, as well as during the negotiation period, she was quick in responding. My fiance and I are pleased to have worked with Vicki, and are happy to have shared this once in a lifetime experience with her.

We definitely recommend Bramlett Partners and Vicki Duran.


I had an absolutely wonderful experience working with Bramlett Partners to find my ideal condo. In anticipation of my move to Austin, I felt nervous that I had zero familiarity with the area. Initially thinking I would buy a condo, I reached out to Eric for assistance. Eric immediately returned my phone call and over the next few weeks spent hours breaking down for my family the need-to-know details about the different areas of Austin. Further, he put me in touch with financial experts who explained my mortgage/ financing options. When I told Eric I was better suited to instead lease a condo during my 2-year stay, he promptly connected me with his colleague Bailey Bowden who, too, was a pleasure to work with. Bailey was extremely flexible to accommodate my busy schedule, and she showed many great properties that I would have never found on my own. After I found the condo of my dreams and signed a lease, Bramlett Partners did not fall of the map. Instead, Eric and Bailey followed up to help me sort out the remaining details with my landlord's broker and also ensure my overall satisfaction with my lease. These guys are professionals who take pride in their work and genuinely care about their clients - 10/10.


My husband wanted to move to Austin to have more job opportunities. We lived in oregon and I had to find a realtor in the Austin area to help us. Vicki Duran was one of the best agents I have ever worked with. She spent all day with me showing me the area, stores, and I believe we looked at over 12 houses in one day. We then took my husband by the top 3 houses. It was a late night.

She helped me make an offer on a house the following day. She helped us through the walk-through for the punch list. We had to return back to Oregon to finish packing and move.

Vicki did our final walk through for us and was also available to let the pest control company in for the initial spray. She then dropped off the keys to our new home at our hotel so we would have them when we got here.

In my opinion, Vicki went above and beyond her realtor duties. I really like her and highly recommend her.


Eric defines what a Realtor should be. So much so that I've used him twice.

I first happened upon him by chance when looking to move from Orlando, FL to Austin, TX in January, 2006. He was the listing agent for a place that I was interested in renting. After chatting with him for a bit over the phone about what I was looking for, he offered to drive me around to check out a few other places as well when I arrived in Austin. I arrived and he did so, making time for me after my new job (sometimes into the evening) without hesitation. He was able to tailor our search down to my needs so we didn't waste any time in touring. Even after the first couple contracts fell through because people beat us to it, he continued to help.

When it came time to buy a home, we called Eric up again. He spent the better part of 3 months driving my then pregnant wife around to look at our personalized list of homes, including new developments that had plans that met our needs.

Eric's service is nothing short of perfect. He focuses on and values each client's happiness with their home buying decisions. Whether you're looking for an $800/month rental, $200,000 homes, or $1,000,000 mansions, Eric will go out of his way to make sure you find the house that will become your home.
