    "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.

    "He is incredibly knowledgeable!"
    When we first moved to Steiner in 2015, Allan helped us rent a home and then later purchase one in 2018. He is incredibly knowledgeable of the Austin market and his process is second to none. Finding your dream home in a competitive market like Austin can be a long and stressful ordeal,but Allan's team made it go as smoothly as possible. We can't recommend Allan enough!

    Bought a Single Family home in 2018 in Austin, TX.
    "I cannot recommend her more!"
    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.

    "They were both in constant contact!"
    Alan and Christina could not have been more helpful. We were new to Austin and did not know much about the different neighborhoods and values. Allan provided us valuable information to help us in our search for our home. He made himself available to show us multiple homes on weekends and evenings.Christina made all the appointments to make sure it all went smoothly. They were both in constant contact to keep us informed. Allan was also very knowledgeable of the new laws governing real estate closings, which helped our closing to go smoothly. I would highly recommend Allan and Christina for all your Austin area real estate needs.

    Bought a Single Family home in 2015 in Leander, TX.
    "Beth's services didnt end with the house being secured"
    I've worked with Beth to buy several houses and properties (and used referrals from her for out of region purchases). Our latest house is the best! Feels like we are on vacation everyday. Thanks Beth! Tight market made it critical to move quickly and we viewed the property,submitted a competitive bid and got the house in a weekend. Beth's services didnt end with the house being secured. She has a tremendous network from the finance person, to the highly ethical plumbers, carpet installation, painters...even the yard guys...they have all been almost as amazing as Beth. Where do I go to give you 6 stars??

    "We can't recommend her enough!"
    Beth has served as our agent for three transactions: two purchases and one sale. Every time we have been enthusiastically happy with her support and expertise. Most recently, she helped us put our house on the market and got an excellent price. We have two kids, a dog, and two full-time jobs,so we were getting a little overwhelmed by the logistics. But Beth helped us prioritize upgrades and repairs, referring us to her excellent network of contractors. She did an excellent job helping us stage and market our house, culminating in multiple bids after only being on the market for a few days. She has such a good sense of the market and she managed the sale perfectly. She also was extremely helpful (and fun!) while we searched for our new home, ultimately driving a hard bargain for us in our purchase. She is a delight to work with. We can't recommend her enough!

    "We couldn’t have asked for a better experience!"
    My daughter and I relocated to Austin from California. We found the Austin real estate market to be daunting with little inventory, lots of competition, and quickly rising prices. We were lucky to happen upon Beth at one of her listings. She was genuinely happy to meet us, full of energy,and sincere in her follow-up and desire to find us a home. Beth is a hard-working, knowledgeable, and scrappy real estate agent. She is tapped into standard tools, like the MLS, but also word of mouth and networking. Beth took a pro-active approach to our search and listened to our needs so we were able to narrow down our search area quickly. When it came time to look at homes, I was always happy with the number of homes and variety of options provided. Each day of touring, Beth was professional, well-prepared and organized. She would map out a route to make the trip as efficient as possible and even offered drinks and snacks! Once we found the right home, Beth became a trusted advisor and provided concierge level service. She helped strategize an offer, compiled key dates for closing, helped navigate inspections, set up and met with contractors for estimates, showed us the home repeatedly - with family in town or just because, and even attended the closing. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and we owe that in large part to Beth’s great attitude, knowledge, guidance, hard-work, and willingness to help us find the perfect home. We are all moved in now and couldn’t be happier.

    "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.

    "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.

    Bought a Single Family home in 2016 in Austin, TX.
    "He was there for us!"
    The thought of buying our first home seemed really quite daunting, where do we even begin?! However, from our first meeting with Allan, I knew that we could trust him to provide us with the guidance we would need from start to finish. Our “perfect home” search criteria was very very narrow,including having the perfect pool and a small location radius. Because of Allan’s careful research and knowledge of the market, we were able to make a decision we were confident in a pretty short amount of time and he secured a great purchase price! He was there for us every single step of the way and was available and prompt whenever we needed him. His experience in the industry is vast and his personality and genuineness will put you at ease. I would recommend him to anyone and would most definitely use his services again down the road!

    Bought a Single Family home in 2016 in Cedar Park, TX.
    "My happiness was clearly her first priority!"
    Since moving to Austin in 1987 I have worked with three different real estate agents as a buyer prior to working with Beth. The service they provided was similar in all cases. I told them what house I wanted to look at and they chauffered me to see it. This was a very arduous process that I did not enjoy.My experience with Beth was completely different. Beth listened carefully as I described what I was looking for until she precisely understood my requirements. She then found the perfect house for me - within the neighborhood I wanted to reside - and negotiated a price with the seller that was within my budget. After an offer was made, she followed up at every stage to ensure the deal completed. She made the process seemless. Beth was a pleasure to work with. She impresssed me with her knowledge and resourcefulness. She remained diligent and optimistic throughout the entire process while maintaining a level of professionalism rarely seen today. My happiness was clearly her first priority. Beth would rather forgo a commission than have a dissatisfied customer.

    "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!

    Bought and sold a home in 2015 in Golden Gate Park, San Francisco, CA.
    " They are truly a dynamic duo!"
    We started our search for a home with another agent. When we became extremely unhappy with her ability to represent our best interests, we switched to Allan. He understood what we wanted and showed homes that matched our wants and needs. He was professional and knowledgeable, yet treated us like family.I would recommend Allan and his wife. They are truly a dynamic duo.

    Sold a Single Family home in 2017 in Austin, TX.
    "Allan is an amazing human being!"
    It’s not always easy to find realtors with the experience and knowledge that Allan & Christina have. They are a perfectly curated mix of friendly and professional. Allan was always there to answer a quick question by phone, text, or email. He somehow muscled his way thru a showing when he twisted his ankle because he didn’t want us to miss an opportunity,the man is unstoppable. They were both honest & genuine, there at every turn to guide and counsel us. The process of buying a home can be complex and a bit turbulent at times. Allan was there with his calming demeanor to patiently and comprehensively explain every detail, while Christina was prompt with guidance on the backend procedures that come with every home buying process. Allan is an amazing human being and extraordinary realtor, you will not be disappointed working with him & his team.

I would definitely recommend her for your real estate needs.

    "she displays amazing professionalism"
    We recently sold our Central Austin home through Beth Barlow, and from start to finish she was fantastic - she was spot on with pricing and suggested repairs/upgrades, had a wealth of contacts to help find contractors (carpet, fencing, plumbing, etc), and even was there to manage contractor appointments when we had to be out of town.She kept us well informed throughout the process and was quick to respond to our questions. We expected a competitive market and she went the extra mile, staging our house beautifully and holding 4 open houses - ultimately getting us a sale above our asking price! We cannot recommend Beth highly enough - she displays amazing professionalism, is in tune with the Austin market, and truly made the process easy and enjoyable!
