Testimonials

“Amanda was very helpful and worked with me to understand the selling process, what houses where going for in my area, and what I should do to the house to help it sell quickly. Amanda is pleasant, professional, very (VERY) responsive and most important of all – effective. A huge thanks to Amanda, I definitely recommend her.”

“I never thought I would feel comfortable with a real estate agent–after all, they are trying to sell you something, right?–but this idea about realtors was shattered when I met Amanda. My husband and I were first-time home buyers and didn’t know much about the home-buying process or local neighborhoods. Amanda knew it all, and presented it to us in efficient, easy-to understand language. She knew exactly which homes were going to suit us, and which were good investments that would hold their value over time. She was patient with us too, and showed us a number of homes over several months on our schedule until we found the perfect home for us. Amanda is incredibly knowledgeable about Austin neighborhoods, school districts, and getting the most for your dollar. All this, and she’s just about the nicest, accommodating person you could encounter. Look no further. I wouldn’t want anyone buying or selling for me but Amanda.”

“I came from out of state only knowing where my new job was going to be. Amanda took the time to interview me and find out my wants and needs in a property. She spent time with me and got me an incredible deal because she knew about a weekend special the builder was having. She was professional, prompt, and made things happen! I have recommended her over and over.”

“Amanda is not only an expert agent but also a gifted negotiator. We had a very difficult situation when deciding to sell our house. It was in a declining neighborhood and had major foundation issues. Amazingly, she found us the perfect buyers in a very short period of time. She guided us through the process of preparing our house and even completely coordinated our foundation repair. Unfortunately, the buyers’ agent was difficult and inexperienced. Instead of letting this interfere with the sale, she worked with the agent, keeping her poise and patience. This sale had the potential to be very stressful, but we were left with complete confidence in our contract.”

“Amanda is very personable and detailed. She has a knack for feeling out what kinds of homes will make you go “ah!” She found me a wonderful home even though I had a tight deadline, and a limited area of town to work with. She found lots of options in my price range and helped me understand the entire purchasing procedure. I felt comfortable and well taken care of from day one. This was very important to me as I am a first time home buyer and had lots of questions. I would recommend her to anyone looking to purchase a home in Austin. She is very knowledgeable and you can tell she loves people and her job. Thanks Amanda!”

“Amanda helped me find a great house for me to live in now and turn into a rental later. Her knowledge of investment properties was top notch. Viewing houses with her was a pleasure, not only does she listen to what you want, but figures out what you want before you can even voice it! On top of that she must have had a past life as an inspector since she pointed out things I’m sure 99% of the realtors out there would never see. I look forward to buying my next investment property with her.”

“Amanda listened to our priorities and helped us find the home with the perfect balance between wants, needs, and price. We couldn’t be happier with our purchase and will use Amanda again when the time comes.”

“Amanda is at the top of her game. We were in a situation where we weren’t sure when we wanted to buy, and had to put the whole process on hold for a bit when things got too stressful. Amanda was incredibly patient and never rushed or put any pressure on us. We witnessed her battle a seller’s agent who was ridiculously belligerent and difficult to work with, on our behalf, professionalism and dignity intact. Amanda knows her stuff when it comes to houses. She quickly caught on that we were into taking on some projects with our new home, and gave us remodeling advice, as well as spotting things that needed to be repaired, giving us tips on how do DIY. If she didn’t spend every waking moment working her tail off for her clients she might get away with being a full time reality show host or DIY blogger. Her personality is winning and witty and was an all around pleasure to work with! I highly recommend Amanda for anyone looking for an agent, especially first time home buyers and those interested in investment properties.”

“Amanda literally led us to our dream home. She completely understands her clients, and she knew exactly what we wanted. She patiently took both of our calls and emails and worked beautifully with the seller’s agent. We are so happy to have put our trust in her, and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a home or selling one.”

“I spoke with Amanda early on when I was thinking of selling my house. We discussed options and my timeline, as well as what my house would sell for as is and what it would sell for after some improvements. We worked out what would get me the best bang for the buck and I with a few months of work I was able to get top dollar for my house. She had great insight into getting my the most money for my house despite the down market.”

“I’ve known and worked with Amanda for years. She is an excellent realtor. She knows her stuff and she is awesome with her clients. I highly recommend her.”

“I’ve known Amanda for years, and she’s always professional, very knowledgeable, and she was there for us always when we needed her. She is the perfect balance– experienced and skilled and there for us when we had questions. I would recommend her every day of the week!”

“Amanda has been my buyer’s agent for the purchase of two homes in two desirable and competitive Austin neighborhoods, and I would go to no one else! She is patient, responsive, ethical, and explains everything you might need to know as a first-time buyer/seller or buyer/seller of an investment property. With the purchases of both our homes, Amanda helped us navigate the bidding process so that we could make winning offers without overpaying. In one case, she even helped us avoid a bidding war by dropping everything and processing a same-day offer! Amanda has decades of experience and really knows her stuff, especially when it comes to understanding and increasing resale value with some basic remodeling, whether through contracted help or DIY projects. She was even kind enough to lend some of her ideas about remodeling, share some recommendations for contractors, and even gave me tips about how to put a rental property on the market. She really goes above and beyond the call of duty, and that is why she is my forever realtor!”

“Amanda Cribbs is an excellent realtor. I’ve had the opportunity to work with her many times. She truly cares about her clients needs and helps them to find their perfect home.”

“It’s always a pleasure to work with Amanda on a real estate transaction. She is diligent, responsive and always professional. Throughout my professional real estate career, there have been a few agents that stand out and Amanda is one of them. I am always happy when I get to work with her and hope we can do it again soon.”

“Amanda was wonderful to work with. She is very professional and really listened to exactly what we wanted in a home and neighborhood. Thanks for the great experience – we love our home!”

“When we were ready to sell our first home and move into something larger we chose Amanda to sell our house and of course to help us with the purchase of the new home. The amount of work that she did for us was more than I ever could have expected or asked of anyone to do. Our situation was very complicated and there were so many balls in the air. The biggest one being baby #3 that was due very soon. So of course we had to sell and close in time to get into the new house, which we did…one week before my due date. Had it not been for her, it wouldn’t have happened. Had she not been doing not only her job but also pretty much babysitting the buyer’s agent our house would not have sold and we would have lost the house we wanted to purchase. She was so smart about everything, anticipated what problems that could (and did) come up and had a plan to take care of it immediately. I love her, she is the best!”

“When we decided to sell our home, we needed to price it higher than the neighborhood average to recoup our investment. Amanda made multiple trips to provide guidance in preparing our home to be “buyer-ready”. When we put our home on the market, we had a full price offer the very first day! We are grateful for Amanda’s knowledge and help selling our home and will user her again when the time comes.”

“I have purchased 2 homes through Amanda. I also have multiple friends who have purchased homes with her. With every experience I feel like I had a true ally who got everything possible for me from the builder. I would not hesitate to use Amanda or recommend her to anyone needing to buy or sell a home.”
