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.

We just moved to Austin and purchased our first home. Lynn Wise was very helpful throughout the process. She helped us start our search before we even moved, and she was ready to start showing us houses as soon as we arrived in Austin. She made the process go smoothly and was always on top of things and available even during an ice storm when she lost power for a few days! Thanks Lynn and Bramlett Partners!


Tyson Hombroek was the BEST realtor I could have ever asked for. As a first time home purchaser, he stuck with me for over 2 years as my financial and Austin housing market situation fluctuated and was constantly and consistently communicative with me regarding what I was looking for and what I needed. He spent way more time with me and my family than was required, providing us his own opinions as well as what he thought was best for me. There aren't enough words to describe the incredible job Tyson did and would 100% recommend him to anyone interested in buying a home in the Austin area. By the end of it Tyson felt as if he became one of the family and a genuine friend. Thank you so much Tyson for everything you did for me, cannot thank you enough.


After renting in Austin since 2012, Corrine Elgin turned me into an Austin homeowner! This wasn't easy, as I picked the most challenging period in recent history to be a homebuyer. Also given the parameters that I didn't want to move to the outskirts of town to be far removed from the hustle and bustle of the city. Corrine spent many hours each day gathering houses to consider, creating a list to visit, and driving me to probably close to 30 houses over roughly a month. We made offers on five houses that I recall, as Corrine guided me through that challenging process. And while I was approaching the point of giving up, Corrine refused to do the same -- so thankful, as it resulted in the offer on the 5th house being accepted! Every step of the way she made me feel confident enough to keep battling and it paid off. I couldn't have done it without her.


Danny was truly exceptional. As first time home buyers, we had a million questions and he was ALWAYS available for us. He put an incredible amount of effort and time into walking us through the process. From the first day that we spoke, to closing day, he was always there for us and provided us with the help and information that we needed —and more. As first time home buyers, having a realtor that makes you feel like you are well take care of is essential, and we’re truly grateful he did this for us. He made us feel like we were walking through this process with eyes wide open. We’ll be forever grateful for his help, and his incredible responsiveness, flexibility and attentiveness. Thank you for helping us find our dream home, Danny!


Julie is very knowledgeable and she went out of her way to ensure that we, as first time home buyers, understood every part of the process. She took time out to patiently explain every section of the contract and sale deed to us so we know what we are getting into!


Bramlett Partners made buying our first home easy, seamless, and stress-free! Our realtor, Jeremy Vandermause, was incredibly attentive, detail-oriented, and receptive to what we wanted in a home. He routinely went out of his way to provide us with the most current listings and happily did several walk-throughs for us. He was very informative through the whole home-buying experience and made a complex process feel very simple. We highly recommend Jeremy and Bramlett Partners to anyone looking for a realtor!


Working with Elizabeth Michael on the purchase of my first home was awesome. She was there to answer my questions every step of the way, and made me feel at ease during the process. After searching for a bit and getting clarity on what I was looking for, I found a great home that I knew was for me. Elizabeth helped me put together a strong offer that the sellers accepted the very next day. That's a hard thing to accomplish in the Austin housing market. I will absolutely be giving her a call when I'm ready to buy my next home!


Tyson was amazing! As first time homebuyers he made the process seamless. His wealth of knowledge and experience really helped us to find our dream home. He had great communication throughout the whole process and we knew we could count on him to help guide us and answer any questions we had.  


We had a great experience working with Yolanda Johnson as our real state agent. As first time home buyers, we had a lot of questions and Yolanda answered and explained everything we needed. She guided us through the entire process, from finding a house to closing and was always available to answer any last minute questions we had. I would highly recommend Yolanda, she truly made our experience very smooth.


We had an absolutely great experience working with Jeremy purchasing our very first home. We were recommended to Jeremy by our friends, and we couldn’t be happier that Jeremy was our realtor. As a first time home buyer we had a lot of information to process and always raised plenty of questions to which Jeremy took the time to explain in detail and why it was necessary. Jeremy is very insightful and knowledgable and it shows in his work! Jeremy's attention to detail has been super helpful in the process of elimination while looking through some resale homes. He was always available and on top of things every step of the way which became very crucial given the market conditions. Jeremy was recognized by some open house agents we came across as someone we are in great hands with, which spoke highly about the quality that Jeremy brings to the process. Jeremy genuinely cared to get to know us and his approachable nature made us feel comfortable within no time. It was super easy talking to him honestly about our likes, dislikes and sometimes even as a sounding board to think through some of the things like a friend. Jeremy's knowledge and experience, combined with his patient approach, made this otherwise stressful event a smooth and successful process. I highly recommend Jeremy to anyone looking for top-notch realtor services!


It was a pleasure working with Shaun! He helped us close on our first home! From the beginning it felt like a great match, he answered all of our questions with patience and you could tell he knows the market and real estate. We never felt pressured or rushed to jump into anything that wasn’t the right fit and he was very responsive. With his help we found a beautiful home that checked our boxes. For my next property, I‘ll be calling Shaun again.


Shaun was awesome! He was super resourceful, knowledgeable and always willing to help. As first time buyers, we didn’t know a lot of things but with Shaun the whole process was way less stressful. Shaun is someone that we could trust knowing that he had our backs and our best interest at heart.


I bought my first home on the East side of Austin while working with Zoe Wafelbakker a few months ago, and I had an excellent, seamless experience. Zoe was always available to answer questions (and I had many) and her Austin real estate expertise and interpersonal skills are top-notch. She handled the few minor issues and hurdles we faced with ease and grace which meant the buying process was fairly stress-free for me, and we never had to deal with full-on problems. I highly recommend Bramlett and Zoe if you are looking to buy a home in Austin and would like to work with someone who really understands the market and its players and maintains excellent relationships with the other agents in town.


Vivia was wonderful to work with. She was transparent and patient with us first time homebuyers throughout. We appreciate how much she cared about us finding the right home for ourselves along with helpful advice and a positive mindset along the way. Definitely recommend to anyone looking for a wonderful realtor.


Yolanda Johnson from Bramlett Real Estate was amazing from start to finish and stayed in contact with us. Since we were a first time home buyer she helped educate and guide us through the process and made us feel comfortable. She was able to answers all of our questions that we had. I would highly recommended her and she exceeded all expectations. If you’re looking for a realtor that cares and is just as invested as you I would contact Yolanda and her team.  


As first time homebuyers, we had numerous questions and concerns, but thanks to Yolanda’s exceptional expertise, dedication, and guidance the entire process was smooth. Yolanda went above and beyond and helped every step of the way. Highly recommend!


We had a fantastic experience buying our house with Nancy Guilloteau. Throughout the whole process, she was incredibly responsive, proactive, thorough and helpful, and guided us through every step with detailed explanations. As first-time homebuyers, we found her expertise immensely valuable and recommend working with her without hesitation.


We worked with Yolanda and she made the entire process so simple, especially for us first time home buyers! She was always available to reach out to and was very quick on getting us what information we need. Definitely would recommend this company and her!


We loved Yolanda! She was very quick, efficient, and informative. We are first time homebuyers with very little knowledge of how things worked and the little things that pop up during the process. Yolanda was so sweet and helped us understand everything. We definitely trust her and recommend her.


Robin was an absolute pleasure to work with. As first time home buyers, she provided invaluable guidance on how to best navigate the Austin real estate market and helped curate a great selection of houses for us to look at it. She was also extremely responsive whenever we had any questions and, although we were buying the house remotely, she keep us in the loop each step along the way. Can't recommend her highly enough!
