Buyers
When our friends heard that we were planning to buy a house, they warned us that it was a long, arduous process. With Eric, the process was the exact opposite. With his help we were able to find a great house in much less time than we expected. Eric gave us solid advice throughout the process and helped us get a good deal. Everything went very smoothly and we're excited to move in to our new home!
It was our first time buying a house, and we had lots of questions. Eric was very patient, informative, and friendly. He was never hard to get a hold of, and responded very quickly to our messages. He has a lot of experience with the Austin housing market and suggested several neighborhoods that we hadn't been considering. He gave us good advice about renovation possibilities and talked us through which houses we could improve the resale value of.
We recently move to Austin from another state and came here knowing practically nothing about the area. Eric was very knowledgable in the different suburbs available and the pros and cons of each. He helped us select a neighborhood very suitable for the needs of our family. He was professional, courteous, punctual and always made himself available for phone calls and meetings. During the sale he was extremely helpful in offering advice and dealing with the negotiations that occur between buyer and seller.
My husband and I were moving back to Austin from Seattle and contacted Eric after reading his numerous Yelp reviews and experiencing slow communications with the realtor we originally intended to use. We made the right decision to work with Eric! He listened intently to our requirements over the phone and quickly had a list of houses that actually met our criteria. We worked with him to plan a last-minute 4 day trip to Austin, where he and Bailey spent 4 days taking us through over 35 houses before we had to fly back to Seattle. He and Bailey were both super-responsive to all our emails/texts/phone calls before, during, and after our 4 day trip. Both Eric and Bailey were relaxed, helpful, and candid throughout the process. Eric is super-knowledgable about the neighborhoods we were considering, which really helped us better understand what to expect with each home we saw.
Eric allowed us to walk through each home at our own pace, hanging back to answer questions if we had them, but letting us experience the home for ourselves. He was upfront about potential issues in any home we looked at, rather than blindly encouraging us to just purchase a home already. By the time we flew home from our trip, Eric had prepared our offer and sent everything we needed over to us to sign. He helped us through the process and recommended an excellent lender who was able to offer us great rates and patiently listen to all of our first-time home buyer questions. When we panicked over not understanding something in the contract at the last minute when we were supposed to be signing all the papers, Eric quickly responded to our text (after hours in Austin) and called us to explain what we were confused about.
Buying a home from another state is difficult, and Eric was a great realtor throughout the process. He and his team even arranged for flooring companies to access the house so we could arrange to have floors installed before our move from Seattle. Once we moved into the house, I had trouble operating the jacuzzi in the Master bath, and Eric was quick to respond. He not only re-sent the inspection report, but called me and patiently walked me through trouble-shooting the tub until I got it to work.
We are very happy with our experience working with Eric and Bailey and would highly recommend them without reservation to anyone looking to purchase a home in Austin.
Eric Bramlett helped me purchase a new construction property and was able to be very effective although I work in the oil & gas industry with limited access to personal correspondence while away for work weeks at a time. I was interested in central Austin and his insight into the different neighborhoods was invaluable. There are a lot of smaller central Austin builders and Eric knew most, if not all of them. I ended up purchasing from one of the larger builders who specialize in the area and Eric already had a relationship with them, which made the process go very smoothly.
Eric is very experienced and knowledgeable. I especially appreciated his no pressure approach. I never felt like he wanted to just "get a sale." I really trust his expertise and anyone would be very lucky to work with him.
We worked with Katie as our agent for our home purchase. She was very friendly and very easy to work with. We were concerned about the price we were paying for a resale home and she did a thorough market analysis to ensure it would be appraised for that. She helped us throughout the process with all our questions and concerns patiently even though the sellers were not the easiest to work with. I recommend working with this firm.
Eric is a great realtor. He has done a terrific job in helping us find and buy our new home. He has a great network of contractors & inspectors that have made the buying process easy for us. Additionally, Eric understands the market dynamics really well and provides recommendation with both near and long term in mind, his insights make the decision making process very easy. He has been available and very responsive at all times when we needed him! We will absolutely work with him again and are huge advocates of his work.
We bought our first house with Bramlett and then when it was time to sell it we decided to go with them again. We weren't able to be in Austin while our home was on the market and Will was awesome in making sure things went as smoothly as possible. We didn't have to do much, they took care of everything. We received constant updates and when it came time to finally sign the papers they scheduled a notary to come to our new home in Florida. Everything was much easier than I thought it would be and I'm very thankful.
I worked with Craig McGuire and couldn't have been happier with the experience. It took around 4 months from when I first got in touch with Craig until I was serious about making an offer and he was patient and not at all pushy. He was always prompt in answering my questions via email or text, even when asking during evening hours and on weekends. Craig offered sound advice on strategies for making offers and what to ask for during the negotiations. He also kept me up to date on what I needed to do each step of the way during the closing process and worked with the lender on my behalf.
Craig has been nothing but helpful, even after closing on the house with a couple questions I've had. He has connections with contractors and has offered me referrals any time I need them. I highly recommend working with him if you need to buy a home.
Our agent Bailey Moran was an absolute godsend throughout the home buying process. With her expertise and guidance, we were able to view, offer, and win a multiple-offer listing that was on the market for only 2 days. Her area knowledge was consistently impressive throughout the process - from local schools and amenities to commuting times, she always had an answer ready. She provided invaluable guidance at every step of the way. We were first time home buyers and a little nervous throughout, and Bailey really provided the experience we depended on. She provided referrals for local lenders and home inspectors too that were invaluable. We couldn't be happier!
I cannot say enough fantastic things about working with Tara McGuire at Bramlett Partners.
When I reached out to Bramlett via the online contact tool, I had already spoken with several realtors in the Austin area. My inquiries were met with lackluster responses, likely because my husband and I didn't plan to purchase for several months. But when I contacted Bramlett Partners at 10pm on a weeknight, Tara called me first thing the next morning. She encouraged us to visit Austin soon, since we are relocating from Dallas, to get an idea of the neighborhoods and market.
During this exploratory trip, we felt no pressure to buy ahead of our schedule. She gave us a great overview of central Austin neighborhoods and helped us narrow down the best areas for us.
As we watched desirable properties sell in 1-2 days in our ideal neighborhood, my husband and I decided to offer on properties earlier than we planned. Tara helped us construct desirable offers that won the deal two-out-of-three times in multiple offer situations.
We offered and were accepted on a property that we expected to have some foundation problems. Tara arranged for multiple foundation repair experts to evaluate the property before the inspection and send estimates. When it turned out that the foundation was very severely damaged, we were able to walk away before the inspection, saving us the additional expense. I never felt pressured to continue with a purchase that turned out to require more than I felt comfortable taking on; in fact, Tara made sure that I knew exactly how much of a project it would be.
We are now under contract for our second property, past the option period, and closing is right around the corner. We are very pleased that we are ending up in our ideal neighborhood and in a house we love.
Tara is very prompt with email and texts, and she's enthusiastic at every step. Be sure to ask her for vendor recommendations as well! She seems to know all of the best people for mortgages, insurance, and more-with the most competitive pricing.
I hope we stay in our new home for a long time, but we will definitely be using Tara for all of our real estate needs, as well as recommending her to everyone we know.
Best.Realtor.Ever. The reviews are spot on. We have had other realtors and were therefore able to quickly tell how and why Eric and his team stand out. They are super organized, efficient and very knowledgable about the hose buying/selling process. Eric had all the answers to all of our questions. At times we were SHOCKED at the PROMPTNESS of his responses. Eric is also more than willing to answer the 100+ questions that you may have and never seems annoyed. Eric was recommended to us by a friend and we would definitely like to "pay it forward" by recommending him to anyone looking for the best.
Eric was a massive help throughout the entire process. I called him countless times and he was always there, or got back to me very soon after, even after we had closed.
We've worked with Eric for years. He's responsive, accountable and proactive. He knows the Austin real estate market extremely well and has great referrals for everything from inspectors to movers. We'll only work with him moving forward!
So crazy as it seems I used yelp for a real estate agent and found Vicki Duran. I chose her because she was 30 years native to the area I was looking for. Being from out of town I was concerned that I wouldn't find the right place for my family. Vicki helped us navigate through the Texas real estate laws, banking etc. She recommended great people to work with and we closed in less than 30 days! There is no way we could have done this without Vicki. Highly recommended and please ask for Vicki.
I worked with Lauren Yoder and she was AMAZING. She was extremely patient and knowledgeable (which is incredibly helpful as first time home buyers). She really looks out for her clients and will do everything that's in the client's best interest. Can't recommend her enough!
I worked with Tara McGuire at Bramlett on a property purchase in the Austin area. We are moving from California and didn't really know the area. We are purchasing multiple homes for our own property, and for rental investments. Tara knows the Austin market VERY well and told us where we would optimize on our investments. She not only understands the purchase market, she knows strong rental markets and was very attentive to our needs and responsive to our questions. She handled our walk with our builder since I was in California, and connected me with a fantastic broker who bent over backward to get us the best pricing options too! If you are looking for a GREAT agent, Tara is your person. If you don't believe me just look at her online feedback.....5 stars across the board. We will be leveraging Tara for the next property this summer.
When we decided to move out of state to Austin, when didn't know how to approach finding a new home. Luckily, I came across The Bramlett Partners Real Estate name. When I contacted them, little did I know they would put me in touch with the best realtor we'd ever had the pleasure of working with: Tara McGuire. From the first time we spoke with her, we knew right away that we found someone who would listen to our needs and fight for them. We've all had an experience with an agent who pushes you to buy something just to get their commission...not Tara. She made it perfectly clear that making sure we got what we truly wanted was her #1 goal. I know some folks give you lip service on this point, but Tara walked the talk. We looked at dozens of homes and at no point did Tara get frustrated or try and push us in a direction just to get us off her hands. She even would point things out that she was concerned about...I don't know about you, but that is NOT the norm and we appreciated it more than she probably knows. Simply put, Tara is the best in the Biz and we are so grateful to have found her. It's safe to say we will be entrusting all of our future real estate needs with her. Thanks for everything, Tara!
Eric and team helped us purchase our home in Austin while we were living across the country. The 4 days we flew in (with 3 kids) to look at homes, he went above and beyond educating us on the area and showing us almost 20 different homes. Never losing patience with us...or our children! We found our home and put in an offer while waiting in the Austin airport for our flight back east! He was our eyes and ears on the ground here in Austin while we were back east, always offering to be where we could not and giving us recommendations along the way.
Eric is extremely fast at returning phone calls, emails, and texts (even with a difference in time zones). We felt confident leaving our new home in his care while we could not be there. He continues to have our best interests in mind, even after our closing. He is the first person I contact for referrals and recommendations. He has never let us down and we have continued to use his extensive team of contractors. We would truly be lost in Austin without having him to reach out to.
Eric and team will forever be our go-to people for any real estate purchases in the future!
If you are looking for an excellent realtor in Austin area, don't look any further ... Eric is the one! Period !! He has all you wish to see in a great realtor.
A friend of mine who had a successful experience with Eric recommended him to me. I had no experience in real estate as I was about to buy my first home. So I was very unsure about the right direction but with Eric's help, I soon began to learn about my options. He is extremely knowledgeable about Austin real estate so you can totally rely on him and feel safe and confident. He knows Austin's market extremely well. It took me about three months to find the house I like. During the course of these three months, Eric worked patiently with me and went out of his way to make sure I'll find the house that I can call it my home. He provides a truly personalized service and he doesn't treat you as just another client. He develops a feeling of who you are and what you need first before providing you with his suggestions. He was very prompt on phone and e-mail. The MLS website he setup for me was really helpful and in fact I found my house on his list. The entire process went very smoothly due to Eric's excellent guidance and referrals and my first home buying experience turned out to be a pleasant one.
Apart from his expertise in real estate, he is a great guy and it is always fun to talk to him or meet him. At some point I felt like he was my family member and it is a true impression that you will get from him and he is not faking it at all. He is so real. I am looking forward to having him as a great friend and my real estate and home improvement consultant. And make sure to utilize his vast network of contractors, loan officers, designers, inspectors, etc. He is a rock star in Austin's real estate. Take my word for it. You won't regret it.
We worked with Will Mackintosh a realtor with Bramlett Partners, when looking for our house. Will was very professional and courteous, knowledgeable on various areas of Austin and gave us sound marketing advice plus he was not obnoxiously pushy. Because of his efforts we were able to find a suitable house very quickly at a price we did not believe. It was a pleasure working with him, I would recommend him.
