    "Greatly appreciated Allan's honesty!"
    We came to Austin during the week of thanksgiving to find housing for our relocation in December. We were only in town for a few days and due to the holiday we did not secure a home before we needed to go home. That said, allan understand what we needed and promised to keep looking. True to his word,he found a home for us a few days later and we signed a lease on a home we had not seen. However, Allan went to the home personally to make sure it didn't have issues that could not been seen by a photo. Relocating across the country to a home sight unseen was way out of our comfort zone. When we arrived to Austin and moved into our home it exceeded our expectations. We greatly appreciated Allan's honesty and diligence to secure a home for us that would be a great fit for our family.

    "No hesitation in recommending him to our friends and family!"
    We found Allan through a local community charitable event he was sponsoring; the event was raising money for an Austin based canine shelter which we also support. Allan explained how he could help us lease our Steiner Ranch home to the right tenant. We have worked with him now on several occasions andhave no hesitation in recommending him to our friends and family.

    "Beth – thank you!"
    After having a family member retire from being a real estate agent, it can take a minute to decide who you are going to put your trust into for your next real estate purchase. For some, it may not be that difficult. For others, like us, a young a couple starting out with a child on the way,we had a lot on our plate to think about and we needed our real estate agent to be committed and dedicated to our “Team” and our efforts. Beth is a bubbly, loyal, hardworking, firecracker of a woman within her petite frame. When it comes to real estate, she is tenacious, knowledgeable and diligent. You hire Beth when you want to get a real estate deal done – especially, in our case, when it was a property we’ve wanted to buy for nearly a year. How do you put in a strong offer without giving away the shop so-to-speak, especially when you are looking at a property in a competitive area of town (which most areas of Austin seem to be nowadays)? Beth understands this delicate balance and helped us navigate our way straight to the closing table in March 2017! We are thrilled about the beautiful home that we can now call ours. Beth – thank you!

    "Allan was nothing short of a godsend!"
    Allan was nothing short of a godsend for our family during an unexpected (and quick) relocation to Austin. He was excellent at finding exactly what we needed and was able to get us in the perfect place right on time. I would highly recommend Allan to anyone I know looking for an honest,down to earth guy who isn't trying to pull anything over on you. (No hidden fees etc) He worked incredibly hard for us so all that was left to do was sign on the dotted line! Thanks again Allan!!! Update- Allan has since helped us find our perfect home to purchase! He has been a huge part of what made our move to Austin a success and I can't say enough good words about him. He's an upfront, honest, and hard working realtor. I feel like we genuinely made a friend through our transactions. Thanks again Allan & Christina!!!

    "Beth has been an amazing asset to my partner and me"
    Beth has been an amazing asset to my partner and me. She has now been both a buyers agent and sellers agent for us. She is a delight to work with and a shrewd negotiator. She helped us navigate a purchase on a home with multiple offers. Her knowledge in presenting an offer secured us the home below asking price which is amazing given the market and the multiple offers.When we recently sold an investment property she was again helpful beyond our expectations. We were able to sell the property without disturbing our tenant nor interrupting our revenue stream before closing. We got our asking price but saved greatly because she brought a buyer to the table. I cannot recommend her more.

    "He cares about his clients!"
    Allan has helped my family purchase various homes in the Austin area and we keep coming back and sending people his way. Allan understands the market and has our best interest in mind. He cares about his clients and goes above and beyond to make sure they are comfortable in their decisions when purchasing homes.He also goes out of his way to assist with any issues that may arise throughout the process of purchasing a primary or investment property. He is able to send over an expert on a moment's notice when an emergency arises even long after the home has been purchased (plumber, exterminator, handyman, gardener etc). His expertise and client appreciation makes him a realtor and very quickly a part of the family. I highly recommend Allan's services to anyone living in Texas or those relocating here like my family has. Last but not least, Allan has also helped us finding tenant for our properties.

    "Jared put my mind at ease and provided a lot of guidance!"
    As a first time home buyer, I had no idea what to expect and really needed someone to hold my hand through the process. Jared put my mind at ease and provided a lot of guidance and insight that turned an initially stressful situation into an enjoyable one. He was always supportive and helpful,and it was apparent that my preferences and priorities were taken into consideration with each listing he sent my way. After a few offers on "dream homes" went unaccepted, he encouraged me to look at a home I never thought I'd be able to purchase. I had given up, but he didn't. I fell in love with it, and that home is now mine. It's a perfect match and I couldn't be happier. Thank you for listening to all my thoughts and concerns and making my dream a reality!

    "She was positive, encouraging, and most of all professional. She was always there when needed!"
    Beth sold the house that was in very poor condition. She managed to make the photos amazingly good. She was positive, encouraging, and most of all professional. She was always there when needed. She gave wonderful recommendations for services to come in and clear out the house, clean it to perfection,and clean the carpet. I could never have done all that without her! Her efforts and contacts gave us a very quick sale, over the asking price! And THEN she was a miracle worker in completing the sale to closing. I have sold several houses over the years; but I can honestly say that Beth did the best, most efficient, successful job of any previous realtor. If I ever have to sell a house again I will definitely use Beth! And I am wholeheartedly recommending her to my family and friends.

    "I would highly recommend Allan Griego!"
    We were moving to Austin from out of state and had the good fortune to meet up with Allan. We had identifed a property in Steiner Ranch that would be ideal for our situation, but were coming in during a booming rental market. Allan took the time to get to know us and worked hard to present our offer to the owners as the top choice.He represented us well and we are thrilled to be a part of the community now. Allan is very personable and passionate about his work as a real estate professional. Based on our rental experience, we referred our good friends looking to purchase a house to Allan, and he was able to find them a beautiful home at a great price. Whether you are looking to rent or to purchase in the area, I would highly recommend Allan Griego.

    "I can’t recommend her enough."
    I can’t recommend Beth enough. I first met her at an open house she was holding. My husband and I weren’t even really “looking” but that house seemed appealing and we decided to see it. We got into a lovely conversation with her and just “connected” somehow. I ended up leaving my phone number and address (something I never do)- and that was really serendipitous. I didn’t have a realtor in mind to work with and just went with my instincts that Beth was the one I wanted. She never hassled, never bothered us. If I saw something I was interested in, I emailed or texted her and she would take me to see it. She was always available. Sooner than I expected, the perfect house appeared and eventually, we purchased it. At that point, we began the process of selling our own. Beth was amazing - had the right idea about everything, pricing, staging (or not)! We trusted her and we weren’t let down. Our home sold immediately and closing was a snap. She is such a calming presence and helps to make you less anxious throughout the entire process of buying and/or selling. I told her I was going to have “Beth withdrawal” after it was all over. She is just a lovely, lovely person and as I said above, I can’t recommend her enough.

    "Allan and Christina are incredibly helpful!"
    Allan and Christina are incredibly helpful. After my daughter had a bad experience with another broker, Allan and Christina helped her find a great condo in the UT area at a reasonable price and on very short notice. Allan showed us many of places on a Saturday and promptly responded to our questions,even on a Saturday night and Sunday. They also helped usher through the paperwork in a very quick and efficient process. We would highly recommend Allan and Christina for any residential real estate need in Austin!

    "Beth is a great realtor"
    Beth is a great realtor, she helped navigate me through the process of selling and buying a house in one month. The process of buying/selling can be very stressful, she was fantastic at helping me stay on track and not freak out. Beth was always available for any question (big or small or the same question for the 10th time).I never had to wait for her to get back to me, which is much appreciated as one goes through this process. Communication is key and Beth knocks it out of the park on that aspect. This was the first home I've sold, and I couldn't have asked for more positive experience. I highly recommend Beth as a realtor.

    "Great experience"
    As first time home buyers there was a lot of uncertainty going into the process- thank goodness we had Beth on our side! She took the time to explain every step and answer all of our questions, was timely and professional in her response, and never pressured us into anything.She even pointed out some issues with some of the houses we went to look at to warn us of potential problems- Beth was always looking out for us! We love our new home and have Beth to thank for introducing us to a neighborhood we never even considered. Great experience, highly recommend!

    "Amazing!"
    "Amazing" Allan helped us get through a few things which the Builder tried to overlook. Like replacing a broken countertop, which they tried to repair only. Plus he is friendly and easy to communicate with.

    Bought a Single Family home in 2016 in Georgetown, TX.
    "He was a great advocate!"
    Allan and I met a couple of years ago through a mutual friend when I was looking to rent. He was very helpful, but I decided to stay where I was. When I was ready to rent this year I went back to Allan because he had been so helpful previously. Allan provide me with good advice going into the rental process and was there for me to answer any questions.He was a great advocate and very knowledgeable about the area and rental market. He worked with us daily to find a home and helped us to negotiate the terms. Unfortunately my experience with the landlord was taxing, but Allan stepped in and went above and beyond to help where he could. We are now in our home thanks to Allan. Not only is he a great real estate broker, but he is just an all around great person. If you are looking to rent or buy, Allan is definitely the right person for you. I know when we're ready to purchase we'll be giving him a call.

    "Go with Beth!"
    If you're reading this review, look no further, you've found your realtor. Beth is for you if you want someone who's interested in what you need, someone who's available to her clients and knows her business and the Austin market. Beth knows how to negotiate for the best price on something you're loving or attracting buyers for your sale.Beth helped me secure a perfect house with multiple bidders. She scoped out the needs of the seller and devised variables that attracted the seller to my offer without my having to over bid the price. When I went to sell, Beth was there to advise improvements to increase value at a minimum investment. She is very generous with her time and assistance to stage the house as well. She even hired the window cleaners. Go with Beth."
