Our Reviews
Becky Welch is an excellent realtor and a joy to work with! She was super organized and helpful, guiding us through the process of finding and buying a home while minimizing our stress. She took the time to understand what we hoped to find and sent us regular email updates on new listings that met our criteria to help narrow our focus. She sent us expert video walk-throughs of homes we liked online to save us time, and was patient as we searched for months to find that “needle in the haystack” that met our unique needs. She ran detailed comp analysis on homes we liked, which helped us find a good investment that appraised above our purchase price. Once we made the offer, she expertly negotiated the contract terms and post-inspection amendments based on our input and provided solid advice, follow-ups & reminders from contract to post-closing. Becky’s referrals for a great home inspector and handyman/contractor were much appreciated. She even arranged foe one of her favorite roofers to make minor repairs at no charge, as she helped us estimate repair costs identified in the inspection. Becky went above & beyond to make buying our home as easy and painless as possible, interfacing with the title company, lender and selling agent to help keep our closing on track. Becky’s extensive Austin market knowledge and contacts, her strong work ethic and her calm and friendly demeanor make her the perfect partner to help buy a home! She guided us through an epic search to find the right home in the right neighborhood at the right price, and I’m now blessed to call her a friend!
Our experience working with Barrett was nothing less than amazing. He first came on our radar when he sold a house on our street before it hit the market. When it came time to sell our house, Barrett came prepared with market analysis data and confidence that he would sell our house quickly at a strong price point. Barrett was not pushy and
always gave us the necessary data to make informed decisions. His recommendations on painters, handymen, landscapers, stagers, and photographers were all a pleasure to work with and truly got our house looking its best. We received multiple offers within the first few weeks, and Barrett helped immensely throughout the process to ensure
everything went smoothly. And it did. Thank you, Barrett! It was then a no-brainer to work with Barrett on our new home purchase. Again, Barrett worked within the parameters we gave him. Originally, we thought that central Austin would no longer be an option with our growing family. Barrett was able to locate a new construction home in
Tarrytown that met our needs and then was able to negotiate to stay within our budget. We couldn’t be happier about our new home. Barrett was fantastic to work with both selling and buying. Highly recommended.
Barrett did a great job for us in many ways. His knowledge of the area (west, southwest Austin) was very helpful to us as we wanted to locate near our children and near a golf club. He advised us on clubs (he is uniquely qualified to do that!) and helped us identify the neighborhoods we were interested in. He worked tirelessly to show us houses and
was always helpful and knowledgeable. Most importantly, he spotted the house we bought before it hit the market and alerted us immediately. We couldn’t ask for more from a Realtor. He was a pleasure to work with. We felt he was a straight shooter and a good listener. We would definitely recommend him to friends.
If I was going to sum up my experience with Barrett in one word, it would be ‘Professional.’ I personally think this is the best compliment you can give to someone for their job. Barrett was always available and responded to every call or text very timely, and even if he didn’t have the answer immediately and needed to rely on others for the
answers, he would set expectations on when I could expect an answer and eventually provide the answer needed. This was our first home buying process, and both my fiance and I felt comfortable with Barrett throughout the entire process. During every walkthrough we had, he did a great job of answering any questions we had and was
careful not to force his opinions on the house unless we specifically asked for his opinion. He let us know what to expect during each step of the process and made sure we felt comfortable, and never made us feel rushed. I really can’t say enough about my experience with Barrett, and I am grateful for having worked with him. I would absolutely
recommend Barrett to anyone and plan on working with him again in the future.
We, honestly, cannot say enough about Barrett. Knowing he had experience with relocation companies, and his superb knowledge of our neighborhood is what sold us on him. He answered every call, text, and email professionally and on time. This was our first time working with a relocation company, and Barrett took the time to explain
and guide us through the entire process. It is so important to have a good working relationship with your Realtor, and we feel very fortunate to have worked with him. We can only hope to find someone close to Barrett in Washington State when we decide to buy here.
My experience with Barrett Sandefur has been absolutely amazing! Barrett’s knowledge of current market conditions, housing trends, and the best way to navigate the home buying process in the ever-changing Austin marketplace was invaluable. Being a first-time home buyer made for a high-stress situation, but with the help of Barrett, everything came together seamlessly. Having a great realtor can make a world of difference when looking for your home, and I can not think of a better person to have walked me through this process. From taking me to countless house showings, answering many questions and phone calls, to helping me secure my perfect first home,
Barrett consistently made my home buying process run smoothly. Thanks, Barrett, for being my realtor of choice!
I have worked with Barrett Sandefur on three properties, both as the buyer and the seller. It is by far the best experience I have ever had with an agent. He is always on top of everything, communicates well, and makes the process easy. I recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home in Austin.
I had a great experience working with Barrett. I found him to be very proactive and knowledgeable. His proactivity was key, both in terms of finding a great opportunity before it hit the market, but also by reaching out with helpful info or check-ins as we moved from offer to closing. His market knowledge was very helpful, both in terms of helping me understand the neighborhood and opportunity, but also talking through potential improvements to the house and what they could net me in terms of an estimated value and rents.
I must say, working with Barrett was an awesome experience. I had very specific goals in mind and he understood that very well. He guided me at every step of the way, from finding the right property to closing it. I being remote in California was very skeptical about the whole remote buying process. I was constantly testing him on various
aspects of the buying process and I am glad to say that he has earned my trust with his knowledge and patience! Super responsive and super approachable. He found me exactly what I was looking for. Having worked with various other realtors, I think I can safely say that working with Barrett was the best experience for me overall. I have
already referred him to a lot of my friends.
It was indeed a privilege to get Barrett’s service in purchasing our first home in Austin. I never thought it would be so easy to purchase something remotely. Trust and responsiveness are the two key things I was looking for beyond other aspects a typical agent brings to the table. Barrett demonstrated the same throughout the process of
writing multiple offers and finally buying our property. He guided us with candid feedback and assessment of every property very patiently. He is able to think through all aspects and represent us well while negotiating. Overall, it’s been a great pleasure to work with Barrett, and I am looking forward to our continued engagement. Thank you,
Barrett, for your help!
I worked with Barrett Sandefur, and it was a tremendously pleasant experience. Barrett was responsive, professional, and gave honest, helpful advice; never did I feel that he didn’t have my interests as his top priority. For a real estate market like Austin in 2021, I have no doubt that elite representatives like Barrett are essential to being able to find the right home with minimal stress. I can’t recommend Barrett and the team enough. It was a smooth and efficient search, thanks to his dedication and efforts.
Ravi and I cannot say enough good things about our experience working with Barrett on the purchase of our home. Barrett is a superstar – extremely professional, easy to work with, and his experience reflects the knowledge he has of the market and the process! Given it is our first home and we were not even on the ground (based out of California
the whole time), the success of this purchase can only be attributed to Barrett’s hard work, attention to detail, and proactive communication during the end-to-end process. As first-time buyers, we had a plethora of questions, and Barrett was always kindly available to answer them, notwithstanding the time zone difference. He never pushed or
rushed us on any decision at any point and was very protective of our interests as a buyer during the deal. In addition to the home, as part of the purchase, we also had to navigate through the assumption of a solar loan which was quite a complex and tricky affair on its own. But Barrett always stayed on top of everything – be it talking to solar
loan companies or following up on the status with the loan officers – and made the whole experience tremendously smooth and easy for us! Thanks to Barrett, we felt absolutely comfortable, confident, and in control every step of the way, from seeing prospective homes on video calls to becoming homeowners. Working with Barrett has
been a pleasure, and we will definitely recommend him to anyone looking to purchase in the Austin area! 🙂 Thank you!
We had a pleasant time with Barrett in getting out first home. He helped us in his full capacity throughout the tiring process. In case you do not know, we had a really cranky seller who was making life difficult for us. Barrett pitched in at the right time and helped guide us through the tricky waters. At one point, we thought we’d lose the house, but he
kept the boat steady and won us the home. He has also helped us in other areas related to home buying and promptly guided us to the right resource. He has been super responsive in communications and is now more of a friend than an agent.
I recently had the pleasure of working with Kasey Gilliam and was thoroughly impressed by her exceptional service and expertise. From our initial consultation, it was clear that they had extensive knowledge of the neighborhood and understood my preferences as a buyer. Throughout the search process, she provided a wide range of options that aligned with my criteria. When it came to negotiation, she skillfully advocated for me, resulting in a successful deal that exceeded my expectations. Her attention to detail and efficient communication made the closing process stress-free. I highly recommend Kasey for her professionalism, commitment to client satisfaction, and ability to find the perfect home. Thank you, Kasey, for a stellar real estate experience!

Zoe recently helped us sell our home in Bear Creek Crossing. Our sale was tricky due to having already relocated out of state but Zoe was incredible through the process. She was by our side from start to finish. Zoe is knowledgeable, responsive, and honest. She was able to set up realistic expectations and kept in consistent contact to keep us up to date. Zoe was truly a champion for us. We couldn’t be more grateful for having had her in our corner.
Kasey and her team are simply amazing. We felt guided and taken care of through the entire process. Kasey’s extensive research and knowledge of the market, pricing and timing made our entire experience seamless. We wouldn’t use anyone else to buy or sell a house.
Rob Gordon from Bramlett Residential is fantastic! I truly believe we would not have sold our home as quickly or for as good of a price if it hadn’t been for Rob. He really understands real estate and is extremely good at what he does. This was our first experience selling a house and Rob patiently walked us through every step of the process. He took time to explain the market, his strategy, and all the paperwork. When it came time to negotiate he went to bat for us. He happily answered all of our questions and actively coached us through to signing day. We could not be more pleased with our experience. We highly recommend Rob.
Great experience with Will and his team. They made selling really easy. I appreciate the professionalism and knowledge that they gave me n selling the house.
Bottom line is Barrett was great! My wife and I were talking after the closing and how remarkable it was that we never had to prod for information or worry that we were asking too many questions. Barrett kept us in the loop, anticipated questions, and was insanely fast at replying and preparing documents. We will definitely be using Barrett when we move from our house.
My wife and I had the pleasure of recently conducting two transactions with Bramlett, one purchase and one sale. We had worked with Kasey Gilliam on both, for which I give her my highest endorsement possible. Kasey is without a doubt the best real estate agent I’ve known.
Most importantly, in both transactions, Kasey facilitated outcomes that we were extremely happy with. We found a new home that suits are family perfectly, and our old home was under contract within 24 hours of being listed. Both were at price points that were very satisfactory. Second, the processes throughout were handled with great diligence, which eased a lot of stress! Throughout, Kasey was rock solid dependable who answered our many questions thoroughly and quickly, and always explained to us where we were with each step and what was next so we were always well informed. As a strategist, Kasey is sharp and great with finding that right balance between hard data and intuition which led to outstanding results.
Kasey also has a wonderful team from her assistant Kim and others at the agency who helped with the administrative burden making each transaction seamless. Kasey’s network was also of great value. On the sell side, she knew just the right person to help paint cabinets, make repairs, landscape, and clean windows. Each of these contacts were reliable – we’ve already used one at our new house and will use the others when needed.
Overall, I can’t say enough about how wonderful Kasey and the Bramlett team have been for my family. I recommend her as strongly as I have with any professional!
I chose Barrett for many reasons. The primary was that he assisted me in my last
purchase. He is one of the most honest and forthcoming people I know. It’s rare to find that in the industry as commission seems to be the overriding factor for many of the decisions or comments. I never felt that he was in it just for the money. My best interest was always accounted for. I have enough experience between my transactions here in Texas as well as in California to know that you just don’t find agents like him. I would
only choose to do business with him in this market.
Barrett Sandefur recently assisted my wife and I with purchasing a home in Buda. We
closed on the property 5/15. We had a wonderful experience with Barrett. He provided
excellent, professional service on all phases. Barrett is very personable and
communicates very effectively. Any time we had questions he responded promptly in a
way that was easy to understand. We appreciated working with Barrett and I’ll do my
best to refer him to my friends.
My husband and I had a realtor we were working with that kind of fizzled out on us in the beginning and being that this was our first home selling experience we were a bit lost and not sure how to move forward. We came across Barrett Sandefur, and after explaining our situation with the last realtor, he gave us the confidence that this did not have to be a difficult process. Barrett came prepared to our first visit with an answer to every question we had and even an organized booklet so we could have a visual as well. We had a lot of questions night and day that were always promptly answered. Basically every step of the way Barrett made us feel comfortable and not pressured at all. In the end, we sold our home in 2 days at a much higher price than we had ever expected!! Not to mention, Barrett helped us find the perfect home that we will plan to reside in for the next 20 years. A VERY big thank you to Barrett Sandefur! I highly recommend Barrett to anyone who wants to buy or sell a home. We are so glad we got a chance to work with him!
I first met Barrett on the golf course several years ago and shortly thereafter we were in the market for a home. Barrett assisted us with the process and showed us a number of homes and we missed on a couple and basically gave up on moving. I felt bad for Barrett that he had done a lot of work for nothing, but fast forward to this year and we got back in the market and Barrett was there and ready to help. Barrett was a true professional through all the house hunting and never once did I feel like Barrett was frustrated with us, even when I told him we were not going to look anymore. In fact, he kept in touch and even played in a golf tournament or two with me and then assisted us in buying and selling this year. My wife and I feel like Barrett is a friend and we can not say enough good things about him.
Barrett helped my family sell our house in Austin as part of a move we were making to
Boston, MA. We were looking to sell quickly but at the right price point given that we
were located in the 78703. Not only did we need to sell quickly, but we were also out of
town for two weeks as we were preparing to list the house, adding stress to our
situation. Barrett took care of everything with tremendous professionalism and
graciousness. He knew exactly the right price to list at so that we got multiple offers and
so that we eventually sold well above the asking price. And while we probably could
have driven up the price further, Barrett encouraged us to go with the right buyer,
someone who was not only qualified, but who also who fit the profile of our
neighborhood. He managed the entire process while we were away, staying in constant
communication, and he ensured we had a seamless experience from contract until
close, allowing us to time our move from Austin to Boston perfectly. While we initially
chose Barrett because he was a good friend, I cannot say enough about his skills as a
realtor. Should we ever move back to Austin (not an unlikely possibility sometime in the
future), I wouldn’t have anyone else help us find a home.
When we were considering our home sale in Avery Ranch, Barrett Sandefur responded and met me at the house the next day. He already had a market analysis prepared and we briefly discussed options. I was very impressed with his professionalism and always asking me what I wanted to do rather than pushing me in any direction. We decided to wait a year to sell and throughout that time, Barrett would periodically check in just to see if he could help with anything. Again, not pushy at all. I used the opportunity to ask a few questions along the way and he was quick to respond with helpful information. When the time came, I had no doubt who we wanted our agent to be. I called Barrett (now about 1 year after our initial meeting) and we met again. He came prepared with an updated analysis and we again reviewed options. We decided to sell and he started the process. I’ve heard plenty of horror stories about selling a home so I was skeptical about the process. Barrett quickly reassured us that he had everything covered and he truly lived up to that commitment. The entire process from initial presales contract up through closing took about 2 months and Barrett was professional, attentive, and extremely helpful throughout. The experience was actually very positive. He took care of all the heavy lifting and went above and beyond to make sure we were informed and comfortable the whole way through. We don’t plan to buy or sell anytime soon but when we do, I know who I’m calling!!! Thanks Barrett!
We, honestly, cannot say enough about Barrett. Knowing he had experience with
relocation companies, and his superb knowledge of our neighborhood is what sold us
on him. He answered every call, text, and email professionally and on time. This was
our first time working with a relocation company, and Barrett took the time to explain
and guide us through the entire process. It is so important to have a good working
relationship with your Realtor, and we feel very fortunate to have worked with him. We
can only hope to find someone close to Barrett in Washington State when we decide to
buy here.
Barrett is absolutely amazing! He came highly recommended, and I now know why.
Barrett is a go-getter; always available to answer any and all questions, gives sound
advice and recommendations, has great referrals for other services, incredibly
knowledgeable, kind, professional, prompt, I could go on. I am so glad that we used
Barrett to sell our home! He is currently hunting for our next home, and it’s been just as
wonderful. I won’t use anyone else, Barrett is the very best!
We recently worked with Barrett Sandefur to sell our home in Circle C. He was
absolutely wonderful to work with, extremely responsive and easy to get a hold of, very
knowledgeable of the market, comps, rules and regulations, etc. and easy to work with
all around. He had several connections to local vendors to get our house in the best
shape possible at a reasonable price (i.e., interior paint, etc.) before getting it on the
market. He held an open the first weekend we were on the market and we closed the
sale in less than 30 days of being on the market. We would highly recommend Barrett to
anyone looking to buy or a sell their home. He truly made the experience as seamless
as possible.
We had an amazing experience working with Barrett. He was our Realtor when we
bought the house, and we asked him to help us when we needed to make a sudden
move due to a family emergency. He was ready to help us out, very understanding, and
accommodating. When working with Barrett, I always know that he is looking out for us
and acting in our best interests. I would definitely recommend him to my friends in the
future.
Barrett Sandefur did an excellent job marketing and selling our home. He was responsive, knowledgeable about the market, provided good advice and recommendations, and the results spoke for themselves, multiple offers within 6-days of listing. We are happy to recommend Barrett highly and appreciate the service and expertise provided.
We always enjoy working with Barrett, and we consider ourselves lucky to have been
able to work with him a few times now. It’s like working with a friend who happens to be
a really good real estate agent. He’s available, responsive, kind, and very down to
earth. We absolutely trust him and his guidance. He’s helped us face some difficult
situations as well, and he’s always empathetic and makes smart decisions to keep
things moving. Cannot express our gratitude and appreciation for Barrett enough.
If I was going to sum up my experience with Barrett in one word, it would be
‘Professional.’ I personally think this is the best compliment you can give to someone for
their job. Barrett was always available and responded to every call or text very timely,
and even if he didn’t have the answer immediately and needed to rely on others for the
answers, he would set expectations on when I could expect an answer and eventually
provide the answer needed. This was our first home buying process, and both my fiance
and I felt comfortable with Barrett throughout the entire process. During every

we felt comfortable, and never made us feel rushed. I really can’t say enough about my
experience with Barrett, and I am grateful for having worked with him. I would absolutely
recommend Barrett to anyone and plan on working with him again in the future.
Barrett Sandefur is one of the best Realtors I’ve had the pleasure of meeting. I know lots of Realtors, but Barrett really is a superstar performer in a class of his own. The market in Round Rock is really tough for buyers right now, and he found us the perfect home and negotiated a great deal for us in record time. He was always on top of the little things that can complicate a transaction. Great follow-up. Just an all-around fantastic buying experience with him. And don’t let the Southwest aspect fool you. Barrett knows this city really well, having grown up in Round Rock.
As an investor, I was a bit nervous about getting my very first home without seeing it.
But wow! Barrett made buying a home such a breeze! He was extremely helpful, open,
transparent, and reliable throughout the whole process. Each and every time, he would
send full details of the home, value, comps, about the community, and weigh the
benefits. We ended up buying a house without seeing it, and we love the home. We’re
very confident in the information Barrett provided about the home. I would highly
recommend him to all my friends.
It was AMAZING working with Barrett. As a first-time homebuyer, he guided me
throughout the process and explained to me the ins and outs of everything. He was
extremely honest, upfront and found a great house that fit into my price range. I couldn’t
have asked for a better real estate agent. Even though the Austin market was going
crazy, he was very calm and adaptable to the market conditions. I felt very trusted
working with him.
It has been truly a great experience working with Barrett since the day he was referred to
me by my friend. To be honest, I was working with a Redfin agent prior to being referred
to Barrett, and I could see the difference in approach. Barrett gets into the details and
does his independent research. His inputs helped me and my wife in deciding on the
offers we made on properties in and around Austin. The property we recently closed
was also not in the market yet, but Barrett was quick to get into a discussion and help
us with his analysis on long-term appreciation and good rental value.
Our experience with Barret in the entire process of buying a rental property has been
great. His knowledge of local neighborhoods, what works and what doesn’t works is a
valuable insight for any home buyer working with him. We would definitely be
recommending him to our friends who may be interested in their primary or rental
homes in and around Austin.
Barrett was outstanding to work with. He was extremely knowledgeable about the area and the current market. We have bought and sold many houses, and this was by far the best experience we have ever had, and we would highly refer Barrett to anyone. He made it so easy and stress less. Barrett is not only a great Realtor but a great guy as well.
I’m sure it’s no surprise to you, Barrett has been very helpful in our home search. Since
some of the rules in Texas are different from CA, he explained all those very thoroughly.
One of the most important things I like about Barrett is he never pushes for something
that a client doesn’t want. This is the topmost quality any realtor can have. Since we
bought this property remotely, he gave us a video tour of many properties, explaining the
good and not-so-good things about each property. And it’s not just us. I have two other
friends who bought a property through Barrett, and they also had a very pleasant
experience. He is awesome!! We will give him six stars out of five.
We had a great experience working with Barrett selling our home. He was great at
communicating with us and making the process easy and stress-free. We are very
happy with the service he provided us. We would highly recommend him to anyone we
know looking to sell or buy a home and will definitely contact him in the future when we
are ready to purchase our new home. Barrett did personalize his service to meet our
needs and exceed our expectations. We are very grateful to have had the opportunity to
work with him.
We went with Barrett after speaking with quite a few others agents, including others at
your brokerage. Right from the onset, we felt very comfortable working with him. He was
also very highly recommended by my husband’s colleagues.
We are first-time home buyers, and Barrett guided us all along while being patient and
educating us. In hindsight, we now realize how he tactfully warded us away from making
overexcited financial decisions.
In the current Austin market, we ended up with a home in the location we wanted for a
price below the top end of our budget and the size that we wanted. It would not have
been possible without him. He even managed to negotiate the price down by 35K!
We will absolutely be recommending him to others and hopefully working ourselves with
him again in the future.
I’m really blessed to have found Barrett via my good friend Tamaghna. I would run out of
superlatives or adjectives if I were to describe my experiences of interacting with him.
Although the hunt for my first purchase did take a while as I took some time off to let
the market cool down, which eventually never happened. But this is where my first
impressions of Barret came in when he didn’t push me or forward me anything out of
desperation. This is something which I really appreciate that he put himself in my shoes
& tried to look at things from my perspective. Since this was going to be an investment
property, he also helped me with cashback analysis & often indicated when it didn’t
make sense to go ahead.
Coming back to the Isabel home which we closed recently, Barrett did all the heavy
lifting. The last few weeks had been pretty hectic on the work front, but I am glad that he
had my back & guided me through the process, often proactively to avoid any
last-minute rush. His connections especially on the inspection, lender & title companies
made it feel like a breeze, especially for a remote buyer like me.
As I said I could go on and on with specific situations or incidents, but the underlying
thing is that I have found a new friend or partner in him. He is simply the best & can’t
wait to work with him again.
Myself and Barrett had our first e-mail touchpoint in Mid October, we started with
property search criteria and continuously adjusted. Since the start time, Barett was in
regular touch and sent me properties after filtering as per search criteria, thanks for not
sending all the properties around in the market. As I’m overseas with a different
timezone, Barrett made himself available on Whats App, communicating in the timings
that work for me, introducing me to lenders, educating me on the steps that need to
follow to get to closure, etc….Finally I would summarize as “Barrett was very reliable agent
throughout the journey and went beyond expectations to make things work”
Dear Barrett Sandefur, Thank you so much for your help with buying our home. You made the
process simple and easy to understand for us and we appreciated your patience and expertise. Your
insight was extremely valuable to us and I don’t think we could have done this without you.
