As first-time home buyers, my wife and I were very lucky to have met Craig. Craig brings years of expertise and local knowledge that we desperately needed when we were trying to find our very first house here in Austin. The search process began last year when we weren't clear on what location to even choose from. And Craig worked with us patiently, identifying our family's needs and diligently following up with ideas. Throughout this entire home-buying process, which to us was overwhelming, Craig was always there to represent us and guide us, showing us houses after hours and weekends to accommodate for our busy work schedule. We've finally found a perfect place that we now call home. In terms of his knowledge, responsiveness and most importantly care for his clients, we would rate Craig the top-notch agent.

We found Craig though his website as it has a very easy way to look at homes based on our needs - it was no surprise that he was a former IT guy. His prior experience in IT industry was of great help for us since he presented listings with data driven market analysis. I am a sales executive with a Ph.D. degree and was very impressed with his technical sales skills with statistical market approaches. We flew to Austin to look at homes and he showed us a lot of them that met our general criteria. After looking for a while, he told us he knew what we wanted in a home, but that there wasn't anything on the market that would meet our needs. We continued to look at homes on that trip, but he was right and we left Austin without a house under contract. He continued to look at homes for us over the next few weeks and we eventually found one that would work. After viewing it online, Craig walked through the house with us on the phone answering all our questions. We bought the house "without actually seeing the house" only based upon his recommendation. He wasn't like any of real estate agents we worked in the past who mostly were not patient with a very sophisticated buyer, my wife. Craig was always patiently described pros and cons with houses available in the market as a neutral third party and whenever we found one we were leaning towards, he didn't hesitate to describe cons with those houses. Finally, we told Craig that we will buy whatever he recommends because we trusted him so much. He recommended one house reluctantly because of the higher listing price than the market value but we took it without hesitation. He helped us pay less than what we were willing to by convincing the seller and its agent that the house wasn't priced right - again, his data driven market analysis paid off. We've been in our home for two months and absolutely love it, the neighborhood, and the school.

Craig and his team did a fantastic job selling our home. We had an interior designer walk through the home who provided suggestions on getting the house ready. He had an excellent photographer to cover the house. He also had a separate videographer who did video, including using a drone to do aerial video outside the house. The print brochures that he got done were great, they showed the house well. He had very good internet marketing, both on his site, as well as on the various aggregator sites. He made sure that he was the listing agent on various aggregators, so that inquiries would only go to him. The showing process worked out well. While we we apprehensive about showing the home while we were still living there, it wasn't an issue. It took us four days to get multiple offers on the house, and we had no trouble selling it. We were happy with even the small things - for example, the lock box would text us before and after a showing, so we would know when to return. He also was able to use his experience to advise us when there was an issue from the buyer's side in getting the paperwork ready for closing. He was on the phone with us, touching base every day even though he was out of town on a conference.
