OMG - tons of choices in Austin when it comes to Real Estate reps and help,
they're a dime a dozen. But my criteria is fairly simple and straight
forward yet not that easy to find - - I want someone who's honest,
trustworthy, knowledge-driven, competent, flexible and tailors to the
customer's needs. Someone experienced who goes above and beyond - - they
under-promise and over-deliver. In the end Aaron exceeded all of these
expectations, and I can't say enough about how great it feels to have a
quality go-to Real Estate expert in the Austin.
When I was looking to buy I had my run of the mill with a few agents,
everyone said they were an expert and could make my dreams come true. But
as we went through the motions their true colors began to come through,
they were more interested in getting me to sign and commit to a property
asap rather than finding something that met my criteria. At times it felt
like an easy show-n-tell tour with the basics (which I already knew), now
let's hurry and submit an offer because it will be gone. I felt there was
more salesmanship with a lack of depth on the details, benefits, and
risks. One agent made me feel like I was an inconvenience since I was
limited to evenings during the week due to my hectic work schedule. Kewl
Beans.
Enter Aaron - who was different from the start. He patiently listened to
me and helped analyze and rationalize my thoughts. I could tell he knew
his stuff and was very knowledgeable by providing details that I never knew
of. He was intuitive and insightful- - knowing that I wanted something
specific, but sensing that I wasn't quite sure what that looked like or
translated to in regards to a home. His strategy was to show me a variety
that would help me narrow down my decisions and take it one step at a
time. In the end his strategy worked out like a dream.
As we toured the lineup there were places and options I had not thought of
or considered, but he had a rationale for every place with a list of pros
and cons while keeping my desires in mind. The details were value-added
and opened up my eyes, everything was linked to potential short and long
term risks and benefits. I was impressed with his quality of workmanship,
expertise, and patience. There was never any pressure or rush to make a
decision - - in fact it was the exact opposite, he refused to take any
action unless all options were evaluated and weighed and I was 100% secure
with the decision. He made me feel like I was his sole priority.
Our last viewing of the day ended up being the place I eventually chose to
submit an offer - - as I was there with him it started to resonate and it
just felt "right". Aaron later revealed that he saved the best for last
and knew it would the best option based off my feedback. The specific
details he provided about the property, maintenance and upkeep, HOA
management, construction quality, investment potential, and overall
environment were factors were eye opening and insightful. His summary was
crisp, efficient, and well communicated as I realized how much I didn't
know. Walking through his plan helped clear up the clout that was
hindering my decision-making process. It was seamless to say the least and
I couldn't be happier with my choice.
Aaron aims to please. He's smart, honest, intuitive, flexible, and
customer centric. He listens well, works off data and facts, and is
detail-oriented and investment-minded. I never ever felt like a number and
all of that translates into a quality experience that is engaging,
efficient, and value-added. The proof is in the pudding as I have him to
thank for helping me make one of the smartest and best decisions of my
life. I greatly appreciate having a trustworthy subject matter expert like
him who looks out for your best interest.
