Testimonials
Truly one of the best experiences purchasing my first home with Caroline Kapsner! Nothing short of professional, Caroline guided my home-buying experience in a way that you would expect from a loved one - honest, quick to respond, and always on your team. Despite the crazy market that Austin is, she found us a new build in one of the most sought after and central neighborhoods - all for an incredible price! I have no doubt that my home is already an incredible investment and I can't wait to move in and welcome guests to our new home ASAP. Caroline is hands down the best in the business.
Caroline approached our home buying process with extreme detail. She has lived in the area and worked in the industry for her entire career, which became very apparent as her connections spanned in many of our conversations and negotiations with the sellers. She is so easy to work with, that everyone in the industry treats her with respect. Her connections made the process so easy for me - from recommending a great inspector, to encouraging me to meet with a well-respected lender that answered all of my questions quickly and thoughtfully, she truly made this experience seamless!
Caroline is so highly personable with an engaging personality. All of her advice worked like a charm. She responds ASAP to calls or texts, and is always on time. I am honored to say that not only did she find me a dream first-property, but she has become a true friend along the way. We can't wait until our next home buying or selling experience w Caroline!
—Laura | Buyer | Clarksville
“Caroline was awesome to work with. She was dialed in on exactly what we were looking for and always ready and willing to show us new listings as (or before) they were hitting the market. She helped us negotiate our offer and once we were under contract, she did a great job guiding us through the closing process as first-time home buyers. She was always available and very timely in her responses. I wouldn't hesitate to use her again or recommend her to anyone.”
Mary | Buyer | Tarrytown
“Caroline was wonderful to work with. She was super responsive and always able to arrange for us to see a home. She wasn’t pushy or overly opinionated, but took time with us to get feedback and narrow down our priorities. When we found our dream house online, she got us in for a showing minutes before the deadline and most importantly, crafted an offer that stood out and beat all the rest. Couldn’t have done it without her!”
Julia | Buyer | Southwest Austin
“Caroline was exceptional in helping my wife and I purchase our first home. She was very responsive at all hours and always was able to meet us, sometimes on short notice, to view houses. Once we found our home, she was helpful in explaining the various moving parts of a real estate transaction and took care of all the coordination of the inspection. She was extremely positive, knowledgeable and professional throughout the entire process and I would recommend her to anyone looking to buy in Austin.”
Zach | Buyer | Tarrytown
