This is the only real estate transaction in my life where I felt the sales commission was 100% justified. I would happily have paid more for the level of service we got from Alyse and John.
Dave M.
It honestly felt like working with people who truly had my back. I made a move fairly quickly from CA to TX and they helped me find and close on a house really quickly — easy and stress-free.
Andrew T.
The house sold for well above what my expected high-end was. I have never written a review for anyone, but I felt compelled to rave about them for all of their hard work. You can't do better than John and Alyse.
Bahram R.
In less than 2 weeks in Austin, we were in our new home, settled, and able to go back to building our business. I have sent at least 3 friends to them, and I will always be a raving fanatic of Alyse, John, and the team.
Kole W.
I received several offers on the first weekend and accepted a full price offer by Sunday night. What I really appreciated was how they took care of lining up and managing all the vendors — that saved me so much stress and time.
Doug M.
As first-time home buyers, we were lost — but these two showed us the ropes and explained every in and out that goes into the process. Our nerves were settled. 10 out of 10 would recommend time and time again.
Bryan H.
Working with Alyse and John is truly a 'concierge' experience like no other. They did a good deal of work themselves in our home to get it ready to sell, held open houses, and sent regular market reports throughout. We cannot recommend them highly...
John G.
I have worked with Alyse for over 5 years — from advising us on getting pre-approved all the way to closing day. We've now been in our home for a year and she still checks in to see how it's going.
Casey D.
She was confident she had a strategy to get us more for our house — and she did. She exceeded our expectations in a hot market because she knows how to market, knows how to negotiate, and goes the extra mile.
Rob S.
Alyse was honest with me about my expectations and found me the perfect home. Since buying, I have consistently turned to Alyse for recommendations and she answered tons of questions to help me decide whether to sell or refi.
Andrea G.
Their marketing and photos of our home were superior to anything I've seen in the past. Great suggestions on staging and what needed to happen to get our home show-ready.
Randy G.
She wasn't just saying 'you want this one' for the meager finder's fee. It wasn't about her, it was about me — I could tell she was looking out for my best interests. Highest recommendation.
Jerome Z.
We've purchased multiple properties with them now, and from the very beginning they've been an invaluable part of our real estate journey. Nothing better than having a fellow real estate investor on your side.
Matthew D.
John and his Heart of Austin Homes team have listed and sold 4 homes for me recently. Their knowledge of the market and promotional efforts are second to none — super professional, they put in far more than is required.
Jon K.
John and Alyse helped me sell my old home and buy my new one in Austin — both went as smoothly as I could have hoped. The old house was under contract in two days, and the purchase was just as straightforward.
Michael G.
She went above and beyond, helping me with last-minute preparations and keeping up on comps from day one to listing day, making sure I got the best price. Most importantly, I felt supported through the whole process — Alyse truly cared about me.
Suzanne D.
They went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable with every step, and they found us the perfect home — even when we were picky. We are so grateful for their expertise and would highly recommend them to anyone searching in Austin.
Dustin H.
With the Heart of Austin Homes Team I got a total support network. They held my hand through the whole experience, and if there was something too much for me to handle, they found someone who could.
Whitney F.
We came to John and Alyse with a home that had been on the market for several months. They not only had our home under contract the first weekend — it closed in two weeks, above asking price.
Yvette L.
No fluff, no BS — just honesty, and wow did she work hard for us. She followed up 9 months later to make sure we filed homestead. If I could give 10 stars I would.
Beth P.
We had moved overseas and they were present when we could not be. They arranged multiple quotes and assisted in getting trusted people to update our house while we were gone. We couldn't have done it without them.
Jessica J.
Alyse did a fantastic job selling our home — she was very responsive and communicated clearly, which was essential since we had to handle the transaction from out of town. I highly recommend Alyse.
Andrew H.
Our house-selling experience was a whirlwind but Alyse was a guiding force of calm. Our house ended up selling at top dollar, thanks in no small part to Alyse's expertise and hard work.
Margaret U.
Alyse made the entire buying process extremely easy by breaking down real estate legalese into layman's terms. What sold me on hiring the Heart of Austin Homes Team is their background in real estate development — I knew it would prove useful.
Shani M.
The entire process was smooth, thorough, and empowering. I most appreciated that they outlined the entire process from the start, so I knew what to expect every step of the way.
Jessica A.
She found me an off-market listing in one of my favorite neighborhoods at a price that actually made sense. Everything about the process has been professional, prompt, easy, and fun.
Bryan D.
Alyse goes above and beyond on all aspects of selling a house. The amount of money she got for our house was unthinkable — I still don't know how she did it. She is superwoman.
Bonnie R.
It's been over a year since we purchased our home and I am still so grateful. Throughout the year, she's been happy to answer property tax questions, recommend contractors, and bounce ideas off for future investments.
Michelle D.
Alyse and John were extremely effective at selling my unique house and helping me find my current home. They priced the house well, found the perfect buyer, and even went above and beyond to remove all roadblocks at close.
Lynlea J.
I can't think of any agent more informed, professional, honest, and friendlier than John Blackman. If you are looking for someone who treats you as his very special client and gives you his honest, fact-based opinion — without a doubt, John is you...
Amir F.
Their expertise, professionalism, and meticulous approach were evident in every step of the process. Beyond their professional skills, they're genuinely kind and supportive people.
Matt H.
When many homes in the neighborhood had been sitting on the market for months, Alyse and John managed to get my house sold quickly. If you're looking for someone who's knowledgeable, caring, and committed to your success — you won't be disappointed.
Rexana H.
John and Alyse never stopped brainstorming and working to get our home sold. My husband and I have bought and sold several homes in Austin, and this is the first time I would use the same agents again.
Samantha P.
Alyse masterminded the entire process of selling a house that needed remodeling. They're both creative, data-driven, and just lovely — if you need high-integrity professionals for any real estate needs, you should absolutely work with them.
Megan S.
When it came time to sell my wife's condo, Alyse went above and beyond — she even invested her own time and physical effort to help get it ready, which meant the world to us. Alyse and John are not only outstanding professionals — they're genuinel...
Dehron H.
John and Alyse are now friends of ours and still check to make sure we're happy with our home, even a month after being moved in.
