Here’s what my clients have to say about me…
“Austin was amazing to work with from beginning to end. He was always available to answer any questions we had and was able to make our dreams come true of being first-time homeowners in this crazy market. I would highly recommend Austin for all things real estate-related and plan on using him again in the future for our real estate needs.”

“Austin was able to find our dream home on the Mesa in Santa Barbara. It's not been easy to find the perfect home, especially in a competitive market but Austin was up a challenge. First and foremost, it's impressive that he was able to find us an off-market home. This showed us that he has a strong network and is well-connected in the industry, which is a valuable asset when searching for a home in a desirable area like Santa Barbara. Buying a home is a major life decision, and having a realtor who is invested in your success and truly listens to your needs can make all the difference. Austin was able to provide this kind of personalized attention, which made the process more enjoyable and less stressful for us. Don’t look any further for a realtor in Santa Barbara. Austin is the realtor for you!”
-JESSICA & JACOB
“Austin is an awesome realtor and investor. Austin has excellent communication skills to effectively communicate with the buyer or seller you are negotiating with. If you are looking at homes that may need a remodel he is also generous in opening up his rolodex of vendors, which has been amazing for us. He also pays close attention to details, including budget, preferences, and needs, and ultimately what both parties really want and need to close the deal. Hands down will use Austin again for our next property in the Santa Barbara area.”

I understand that purchasing a home is not just a transaction; it's a significant investment and responsibility. That's why I take my role seriously, ensuring that every step of the process is handled with utmost care and attention to detail.
