Thank you so much for all your hard work on my behalf. I've had the chance to work with multiple agents during this last year and you far out shined everyone else. It was a pleasure to work with you!

I wanted to send this note to thank you so much for helping us with our recent real estate transactions in Steiner Ranch. You were so patient with us in the long search process, and I am grateful that you quickly understood our “needs and wants” and were quite directive in helping us distract ourselves from properties that didn’t fit our bill and hone on those that did! Buying and selling a home at the same time, and coordination of the two seemed challenging to us, but you tackled this with ease and planned with such synchronicity to make it so easy for us. Your attention to detail and ownership of issues that didn’t belong to you really made an impact on the quality of the transaction and the overall experience with us. While you did a fantastic job setting expectations with us and preparing us for every step, we also most certainly appreciated that you fixed unforeseen issues and got in front of those unexpected concerns caused by both the buyer of our previous home and the seller of our new home. I would be so incredibly happy to recommend you and Avalar Austin to anyone in town

Michael worked with my wife and I as our realtor when we were looking for our first house together. From the outset, Michael conducted himself with utmost professionalism and integrity. Too many other realtors we had spoken with seemed to be more concerned with finding "a" house, versus finding "the" house. Michael spent a good amount of time on the front end just talking with us and asking a ton of questions so that he could best understand our desires and what, exactly, we were looking for. He was thorough and punctual during the search process, providing us with every detail we would expect when looking for the right home. Michael takes the phrase "being on top of things" to a new level. We also found his own personal observations and input to be extremely helpful prior to making our final decision. With Michael, we found exactly the house and community we were looking for, and we undoubtedly would work with him again. If you're looking for the right experience with a realtor -- and a fun one, too -- then Michael's your man.

We're so excited to already have received an offer & be under contract on our home after only being on the market for 4 days! Our experience working with our dear friend, Julie DaSilva & Avalar Real Estate has been phenomenal. She has been a perfect fit for our families needs in selling this house. Avalar provides top notch service, attention to detail, staging, professional photography, marketing and advertising, and communicating with potential buyers - everything has been by far our best experience ever. We would highly recommend using her if you all are thinking of selling your house or buying another.

Lisa was referred to us by our previous agent who moved to Galveston. What a great match. Like one of the previous posters stated, we felt like we were her only client. I really appreciated her professional opinion of our new home during the showing process. It made the difference. The price per sqft and salability were hard to pass up. We also found ourselves in a lender induced quandary the week of closing. We could not have been in better hands. We would use Lisa again without hesitation. (Conditions: Very active sellers market)

I wanted to thank you for representing us on our house purchase. It is incredible to think that we viewed the property on March 31st, went to contract on April 2nd and closed on May 10th.
This is entirely due to your spot on recommendations and negotiating skills (always looking out for our interests) and your attention to detail and follow-up throughout the entire process.
I would certainly recommend you to others and would be pleased to talk to any of your prospective clients about our experience.

Michelle has helped us buy two houses, one a primary residence and the other a rental investment. In both cases, she was able to find exactly what we needed and get us a great deal. I will always choose her when buying a home.

Without any reservations, my husband and I highly recommend Rhonda Durrill! While everyone selling a home has their own set of challenges, our situation was especially difficult in that we were selling a home from another state – 1200 miles away! Rhonda made the entire process seamless! No matter what we needed or requested, she was there for us. She was accessible, proactive and professional. From our first conversation with her to our closing, she managed the entire process expertly and far exceeded our expectations! With complete confidence, we would hire her again as well as recommend her to anyone buying or selling a house!

I can’t thank you enough for your help in securing our lot. I appreciate the personalized care you took with us. It was truly a great experience. We look forward to being a part of the Dripping Springs community someday. Meanwhile, If we make a trip down, we will be sure to stop in and say Hi.

Throughout the process of selling/buying our home, Melissa was truly committed to helping us attain the right transaction for our family. She was patient and accommodating, going above and beyond to make sure we were well informed and comfortable with all our decisions. Melissa was knowledgeable about the properties and the market, exceeding our expectations many times. She made the sometimes stressful situation of home transitioning much more pleasurable with her warm and organized style. It was great working with Melissa and I would highly recommend her to others!!

Rhonda's experience, negotiation skills and overall support were key elents that enabled the sale of our home. The transaction was made more challeging as we relocated from Austin, Texas to the UK and Rhonda managed the whole process in our absence. She went way above and beyond what you would expect from a typical realtor and I hope that as a result of our business relationship my wife and I have established a long lasting friendship. I would strongly recommend Rhonda if anyone is seeking a proactive and responsive realtor.

Lisa is hands down the best realtor I've ever worked with. I had a very short timeline to relocate and she immediately put together a large list of properties and began putting together a plan. She went well above and beyond to help me find the perfect place and I will be a customer for life. Highly Recommend!!!

We recently had the pleasure of working with Joy on the purchase of an investment property. This was not an easy task. Joy went above and beyond the call of duty with our search, she guided us in the right direction and ultimately helped us make the right choice. We feel so blessed to have been introduced to Joy and highly recommend her to anyone that is looking for a top REALTOR. We are happy to know that we have a Realtor who is so hard working, dependable and knowledgeable.

When my wife and I purchased our first home we really didn't know what we were doing. Michael was always available to answer any questions and guide us through the maze of paperwork and negotiation. Without him it would have been months of frustration and second guessing. We would absolutely use Michael again when looking for real estate in the future!

Kay, Thank you so much for getting us our dream home. There is NO WAY we could have done it without you.

When we first contacted Daniel about listing our property I explained to him that it would not be an easy sell. There are some unique features since I had done all of the construction myself over a period of several years. Once he saw the property he decided he could get it sold despite my concerns. Daniel and his wife, Abby gave us their recommendations on 'staging'. I really did not want to follow some of them, but I did. In the end it was the photos on the website that inspired the new owners to come and see it in person. They showed up one afternoon on their own, without their agent and decided to buy it on the spot..... I am happy I decided to retain Daniel and his team as my agent. You can trust Daniel, and be confident that he and his team will work for your best interests.

This is the first time for us to sell our house and we are so lucky to have Lisa guide us throughout the journey. She has made our life so much less stressful. She is so pleasant to work with, very calm and knowledgeable. She would always go above and beyond to help us and never say no if we have any requests. She is also very reasonable with her requests when comes to repairing/getting the house ready for sale. We are very impressed with her staging team and the flyer for the house was absolutely amazing. She helped us priced the house strategically so we would not only sell our house the first week but got multiple offers over the listing price. We would absolutely use her again and would refer her to my friends.

Diana goes the EXTRA MILE! I wish I could give more than 5 stars as she really is a 10!!!!!!
I have been involved in many real estate transactions and I can honestly say Diana rises above other agents! She is very responsive to communications, her follow though is top notch, and she tries to resolve issues quickly and effectively. She is not one of those agents that sit on their laurels and waits for the commission check to arrive.

Melissa painlessly made possible our purchase of a condo in Steiner Ranch without our ever leaving New Jersey for the negotiations and closing. She professionally and patiently handled everything, and I mean everything (guiding us through signing documents on line; diligently working on getting us the best price; getting us a mortgage lender; handling multiple inspections; providing insurance recommendations; and identifying contacts for HOA, electric, and water). She never missed a beat even when she was on her previously planned family vacation out of state. We felt that we were her only customers throughout the process. We feel so privileged to have had her as our agent. Without hesitation, I would strongly recommend Melissa as your agent.

Rhonda was an excellent agent for the sale of our home. She is very detailed oriented and knows what needs to be done to sell your home. She handles all the little things and the big things very professionally. Rhonda always returned our calls, text messages and e-mails very promptly, even if they were not that important. She helps things run smoothly, even if there are major bumps in the road. Her negotiation skills are truly excellent! We had two offers on the same day, and Rhonda got what we wanted in the negotiation for the right contract. We also enjoyed Rhonda's great sense of humor and keeping things light in the moments of stress! We highly recommend Rhonda as a realtor, she is very personable and knows her stuff!

Michelle is the best realtor I've ever had!! Her knowledge about the market and the area where we live is very impressive and she knew exactly what she as doing. She worked non stop for us through this tough market to find us our home. Michelle got the best for us and made the process so easy for us to sit back and know we were in good hands. I don't think many people understand the behind the scenes stuff that goes on and just how much a realtor does for you, a good one anyway. We've had other experiences with other realtors in the past that may not have been negative but there is a definite difference in experience and personality. I truly felt that Michelle cared and she wasn't just trying to find us a quick house to move on to the next client. She knew what we wanted and liked and wanted us to be happy. I plan on using her again when we sell in a few years and I would recommend her to everyone I know!

Our family was suddenly relocating to another city & needed help to quickly sell our house. Joy was professional, highly experienced and supportive, making our house sale a smooth process. She went above & beyond to make sure our asking price was aligned with the market, that we had researched correctly & that we were getting the most value for our home. We would recommend her to anyone & were thrilled we chose her to be our REALTOR.

I recently worked with Melissa on a transaction in Steiner Ranch. Through the entire process, Melissa was professional, and responsive, and a joy to work with. She was very knowledgeable and represented her clients well. Even through some tough negotiations, she remained calm and firm and professional. I would welcome another contract from her anytime!

Lisa was easy to work with. Kept in constant communication. Knew what the area was doing and got our house sold within 2 days. Did a great open house and staged the house for us too.

For us, moving to Austin was a cross country move. Finding a house being so far away is no easy feat! Melissa was always there to answer our many questions, looked at homes without us, and was ready to show us the many homes we requested to see within a two-day period. She kept us up to date and moving along throughout the entire closing process. What can I say? We gained not only a real estate agent, but a good friend as well!

Being first time home buyers, my wife and I were anxious about the home-buying process. Lisa was able to calm our nerves and answer any and all questions we had along the way. Lisa did an outstanding job communicating with us and handling negotiation discussions between the builder and ourselves.
Lisa is reliable, and she is an expert at her craft. She is incredibly knowledgeable about the market, and she will go above and beyond for her clients, as she did for my family. We were lucky to have found someone so honest and caring.
We are looking forward to maintaining our relationship with Lisa and will, without question, use Lisa again when the time comes to sell our current house and begin the search for a new one.
I highly recommend Lisa, and I strongly urge others to contact her if they are looking to sell or buy a home. Lisa does things the right way, and she is a pleasure to work with.

We had a great experience with Melissa Van Leeuwen. She could not have been more professional, responsive, informed, and in tune to balancing our needs. She ALWAYS provided us with assured guidance and confidence. Melissa is knowledgeable, approachable, personable, patient, and detail oriented. She answered every question and explained every form and every part of the process clearly and thoroughly. Buying a home in this market is challenging, but working with Melissa made it as painless and straightforward as possible. We highly recommend her!

The pleasure was all ours. Your genuine kindness and empathy complimented your professionalism with which you helped us along every step of the way in the process. We always respected that never once during the year we rented did you or Michael try to push your business onto us. I don’t think we knew Michael was a realtor until sometime this last spring. Instead you were kind, generous, and gracious neighbors who responded with class and expertise when we needed your help finding a permanent home for our family. So thank you!! And the door is always open.

When our family relocated to Austin, we were referred to Rhonda by a mutual friend. I'm so grateful our friend recommended her because she exceeded all of our expectations. Rhonda is willing to help in any way, always on top of paperwork, punctual, and very knowledgeable. She went above and beyond to help us find the home of our dreams. 4 years later, we have come full circle. We called on the person who made our home buying experience so enjoyable to sell our beautiful home so that we could relocate once again. Rhonda was prepared the day she visited with comps, recommendations, a videographer/photographer scheduled, and we were listed within a week. Even better, she sold our home in just over 30 days!!! You won't find anyone better than Rhonda...look no further!

We will recommend you to all of our friends and absolutely will work with you on our next real estate adventure.

Just wanted to send a shout out to the team at Avalar Realty. Selling and buying a home can be an extremely stressful time. Michael & Julie DaSilva went above and beyond to make these transitions as smooth as possible for me and my family. If you are planning to sell or looking to buy, I highly recommend them. Who better to sell a home in the BC than a BC neighbor. Can NOT thank them enough.

- Cathie Edwards

Lisa is absolutely amazing!! Because I am relocating, I didn't have a real estate professional in Austin so I inquired about a property that I liked and she was the agent listed on the listing. She immediately connecting with my via email and set me up to look at additional listings available on the MLS. We set up a time for me to come to Austin to look at the houses I selected and she dedicated the entire day to helping me find the best home possible. She is very friendly and will get the job done. I enjoyed all of the time that I spent with her. She went from stranger to family member very quickly. I highly recommend her and will use her when I am ready to purchase.

We recently sold our home in Steiner Ranch. Our Realtor, Erin Bloss, did a terrific job. Erin helped us "stage" the house and it sold in seven days due to her excellent online marketing skills.
She was never too busy to take our calls and even brought us lunch on moving day. Erin made a potentially trying experience as easy as possible. Anyone looking for a professional, personable realtor should give her a call.

We were the Buyer on a bank foreclosure purchase. Dealing with banks as sellers is always a challenging experience and it can be even more difficult when their agent is not committed. Diana was the bank's agent, however, it was Diana's dedication and commitment that made our transaction a success. She did a great job communicating and resolving issues between buyer and seller. She really works for her pay and does an OUTSTANDING job!
"
- K Moore

If you are thinking of selling your home, please do yourself a favor and speak with Erin Bloss with Avalar Realty, before your final Choice!
I promise...you will NOT be disappointed.
Erin treated sale of our home like her home. When were out of country during the sale of our home, she kept a check on our home on a daily basis to make sure everything was perfect, even if that meant sweeping the patio. Any request we made, she NEVER said NO. She was on the top of everything, always. She is truly a caring person, and knows her stuff inside and out!!! Thank you so much Erin, you are the BEST!

I know that everyone has different expectations when it comes to a realtor relationship, but I was looking for the basics...someone reachable, that would communicate consistently and with honesty, and someone that would be proactive on my behalf. That's exactly what I experienced with Michael. There may not a perfect Realtor out there, but Michael is pretty close as he met (and sometimes exceeded) my expectations in every way. A great experience!!

Joy, a very professional and energetic real estate agent, helped to lease an investment property at Steiner Ranch. We have found her to be very pleasant and trustworthy. As a real estate agent, Joy has very strong people skill too. She kept us informed in details through emails and phone calls on the progress update for the leased property.
"
- Helen Wen

Joy first helped us find a rental home and then find one to buy. For the rental, we were in town for just one day and she gave us her whole Sunday. She's very personable and likeable and, as we got to know her, admirable. When we later bought a home in the same neighborhood we'd rented in, she was responsive and helpful in our search and she did a very good job with the seller getting the price down. Especially if you're looking in the northwest and west, she knows the terrain very well, and she's a joy to work with (can't resist the pun).

We had an amazing experience with Joy! She made the home buying process as easy and least stressful as possible, which in itself speaks volumes! Her knowledge, effort, and calm demeanor was appreciated throughout the whole process. Home buying can be a stressful process and Joy eased that stress significantly. We are truly grateful for Joy helping us in buying our beautiful home! She was not only responsive to all of our communications, but she was also such a pleasure to interact with her, every step of the way. We also had Joy help us find a tenant for a rental we have. Again, she proved to be an amazing professional to work with. I would highly recommend Joy to anyone looking to buy/sell a home or assist with a rental. Thank you Joy for all your hard work!

"Michael always gave us the assurance we needed as we moved through the process, and he helped us keep our sanity during an otherwise tense and stressful process…I will never hesitate to recommend Michael to others who are looking for a home, and certainly won’t think twice about tapping him next time we decide to jump into the home buying process all over again."

We live on the coast near Galveston & wanted to have a rental property inland & in the Austin area. We worked with Joy & could not have been more pleased.

Having Rhonda as your realtor is hard to beat! She outgoing, friendly, personal and you always feel you are the most important person. She knows her stuff and is always on top of things, making sure there are no surprises. She gave us great advice on how to make our home more attractive to the market; what to update, what to replace and what to leave alone. She has a repertoire of great handymen, painters etc. who all worked out great. She drove staging the house and it turned out great. She went way beyond what we have ever seen from any realtor. Rhonda is a true “Steiner Ranch Specialist”: she sure knows what sells in Steiner Ranch - better trust her. We sold our house within 2 weeks. We can only recommend Rhonda to anyone who wants to buy or sell a house in this area.

Joy was very responsive and professional throughout the entire process of selling our home; from the initial agent selection process through closing at the title company. Joy provided important information and guidance at key steps in the selling process which facilitated a quick sale at a great price. We would highly recommend Joy as a partner to help anyone sell their home.

Michelle has helped me sell my home and also buy another home. She has a tremendous amount of experience in understanding the market and she will work hard to get you what you want! She is always available to answer any questions throughout the process and is very knowledgeable. She goes above and beyond with marketing and professional photography when listing a home with her. I have recommended her to friends and family and they have had the same experience.

Joy was absolutely wonderful. This was my first home buying experience and Joy helped me and my boyfriend every step of the way! She was so knowledgeable and understanding. She didn't care that we knew nothing about the home-buying process and instead taught us everything we needed to know. She was there every step of the way and answered any and every question that we had. I highly recommend working with Joy if you are a first time home buyer, or just looking to move into the Austin area. You will NOT be disappointed. Joy felt more like a friend than just an agent.

My husband & I recently purchased a home for our family in Steiner Ranch through Melissa Van Leeuwen & we couldn’t be happier with our new home & our choice to use Melissa as our Realtor. Melissa goes above & beyond the norm & even now that we have officially closed on our new home, Melissa continues to contact us & offer her help in getting us acclimated in the community. Considering we are a family who is moving to Austin from New York, Melissa has made this experience as pleasant & stress free as one could hope for. She really listened to our criteria & stayed within those guidelines. She is also amazing with her follow up & consistency. We never had to wait long for Melissa to get back to us. She is very knowledgeable of the community in which she works & I would highly recommend both friends & family to Melissa as their Realtor. We simply adore her.

When you are selling your home, smart pricing is paramount – can't be too low or too high. Rhonda's methodical approach to pricing was based on data, analytics and deep market knowledge that sees beyond the face value of what is on paper. She considers every facet – both good and bad – of your home. However, Rhonda's greatest strength is her tactful candor. She is a consummate professional, and she will tell you want you need to hear, not necessarily what you wish to hear. Therefore, as a seller, you go into the process fully informed and can base your decisions on reality, not wishful thinking. She is one of the best agents we've ever used. Exceptional.

Joy has been my Realtor for years now. Having been a Realtor myself in the past, I wanted someone who not only had impeccable attention to detail, but had good instincts when it came to negotiations, contracting, inspections, and a solid sense of what a client (my family) is looking for in their next home. My husband and I had great expectations and all were fulfilled with Joy Brillante's services over the years.

We all have our personal stories that come with having to sell a home and what I appreciated most about Melissa Van Leeuwen is how well she understood our story. With every step and every conversation, it was always with an approach and attention to our needs. She delivered a beautiful presentation of our home to buyers and the road to get this over the finish line was smooth and well managed. I attribute it to her experience and deep consideration to know her clients personally. The result was perfect. In three words…Thorough, Savvy, PERSONAL.

We couldn’t have been more pleased with the level of service and guidance received by Erin Bloss during the sale of our home in 2015. She listed and sold our home in short order during an off-peak time period for home sales. From the initial consultation where Erin gathered and presented comparable home sales, to prepping the home for show, to receiving offers, to negotiating the sale and finally through closing (and them some more!), she was with us every step of the way. You won’t find a more knowledgeable and professional Realtor than Erin Bloss.

This was our first time using a realtor. We met Leslie Mount at an open house, she was showing. I was a little weary of using an outside source to find a place and concerned we would not see any difference, and boy was I wrong. With her help we were able to find a beautiful place, in a wonderful quiet neighborhood. She helped us recognize ways we could stand out. She was easy to work with, professional, and most importantly she had the patience to put up with us wanting to see as many houses as possible, as many days as possible. I was very grateful for this. Having never used a realtor I can not compare her to anyone, but I can say I am glad we met her, used her, and would recommend her.

Leslie was a hero when we needed her. We had additional circumstances and she helped to meet all of our request to ensure we found a home that worked for our family. It was lucky we found her.
