What Our Clients Say

"I recently had Jamie and team sell my house under the most difficult of circumstances. The market was changing quickly post-Covid, and I was a remote seller as I had already relocated to another State. I highly commend Jamie, Chad, and Lori for all the marketing efforts, follow-up, attention to detail, and assistance they provided to get my home sold and closed. They kept the house always ready for showings, even making sure the plants were watered and healthy! Chad was an amazing help coordinating inspections and repairs, while Lori helped direct getting things packed up for moving. Jamie and team went way beyond expectations and stepped up in so many ways over what any other realtor would. As someone who has been involved in the purchase and sale of many homes across multiple States, I cannot recommend them strongly enough for the purchase or sale of your home as I have not found a more knowledgeable or harder working team!"

"Real estate transactions can be highly stressful even in this digital age when so much information is accessible and self-serve. If you are seeking to buy/sell soon, be kind to yourself and call Jamie Novak and team. Not only is she always current on the market dynamics and economic trends at play, Jamie's keen understanding of people dynamics coupled with her professional experience makes her a trusted advisor and master negotiator. You will feel wholly supported with Jamie on your team. She guides and shares valuable perspectives that empower you to make no-regret decisions. Her team is the epitome of proactive communication, always ensuring they are a step, if not a several, ahead so that you know what to expect next. We are grateful to Jamie, Chad and team for being our expert guides on our home buying journey through the years. Jamie helped us relocate from NW Austin to South Austin in 2016 leading both ends of the buy and sell. She has seen our family grow and patiently advised us through the years as our work and kid's schooling circumstances evolved. Most recently, the team helped us complete a life-changing move to Central Austin and sell on a very compressed timeline. We were under contract within 4 days of hitting the market and closed in record time. Jamie and team were with us every step of the way with a roster of go-to vendors that enabled us to get our house market-ready in less than 2 weeks. We have adored working with Jamie and Chad so much that they have become our extended family's go-to agent team."

"My wife and I have moved multiple times and have built and sold homes for years. Obviously, we've dealt with many realtors both on the buying and selling side. I have to say that Jamie is by far the best realtor we've ever worked with, her professionalism, personality, attention to detail, responsiveness, and ability to carry us through the process before and after the home was closed on was outstanding!

"Jamie was great, she has built a great team. Her knowledge of the market really helped us get the house we wanted. The process was a lot easier than I had anticipated. Her support staff is also awesome. It's almost like they were a part of my family. They were proactive at each step, and responsive to my questions. I couldn't have asked for more personalized service. It's probably going to be a while before I buy a house again, but when I do, I will certainly engage Jamie and her team again!"

"Jamie Novak and her advice on how to structure our offer in a competitive situation were instrumental to getting our dream home. Once under contract, she personally invested a great deal of time and attention to shepherding us to a successful close exactly two weeks after going under contract. She is an avid communicator, very knowledgeable on waterfront properties, willing to tap all of her connections to find relevant unlisted properties, and applied absolutely no pressure to buy one home vs another even though we were looking at a wide range of home prices. We also cannot over-emphasize how much fun she and Lori Riley made the whole process."

John & Lori G.

"I was on the fence about the decision to use a realtor to sell my home given how it's been such a buyer's market and there are disruptors who promise to take less of a commission (e.g., Zillow, etc) However, 15 minutes after meeting Jamie Novak, I knew the disruptors were no match and that her services are invaluable. She managed everything with ease, became a full on team member to help stage, list, and sell my home (for 75k above asking) and knows her real estate. She is data-driven, smart, professional, and a truly wonderful person to work with. I would recommend her to anyone who is wanting to sell their home not just for money but for a purpose. She will help you get there."

"Jamie Novak was so much more than our realtor when selling our home. She took a very stressful time in our lives and turned it into a simple process. I never had to worry about anything because her attention to detail was unreal. She listened to the needs of our family in the sale of our home and made it all happen. If you are looking for someone who is not just going to list your house and show it, but rather sell your house based on knowledge of the house, the neighborhood and the overall market, Jamie is your gal. She sold our house when the market started to soften and got us an incredible price. We could have never done this without her. We are forever grateful to her hard work and endless support."

"We met Jamie Novak and her team through Zillow and what a lucky introduction it was for us. Jamie spent significant time getting to know us and our home priorities, very quickly and professionally arranging tours of prospective homes. Jamie and her team are all avid communicators, very knowledgeable on waterfront properties, willing to tap all of their connections to even find relevant unlisted properties. While Jamie gave her honest opinions on the properties we viewed, she applied absolutely no pressure to buy one home vs another, even though we were looking at a wide range of home prices.

"I've never been more excited to write a recommendation for someone. Jamie was an absolute joy to work with. There's no shortage of realtors in Austin, and we spoke with many of them before deciding to work with Jamie. It was clear that she not only understood our needs, but she also understood how those needs fit into the Austin market. In one very well-planned weekend, Jamie found us the home of our dreams. That house happened to have five other offers, but thanks to her expertise and extensive market knowledge, we were able to win the house without placing the highest bid. Throughout the entire process, Jamie kept our best interests (both short and long-term) at heart, steering us away from less-than-perfect options. After our offer was accepted, she diligently guided us through every step of the process until we fully settled in our new home. She made a cross-country move, mid-pandemic, manageable, even enjoyable, and that's no easy feat. Jamie is smart, knows the market intimately, and is fun to explore a new city with. If you have the opportunity to work with her, I wouldn't pass it up." "I've never been more excited to write a recommendation for someone. Jamie was an absolute joy to work with.

"Jamie is simply the best, on both the buy and sell side. At this point she has helped us buy an in-demand house when the market was hot, sell a house in record time over asking price in the current real estate market, and navigate a new home build.

"I first met Jamie as my previous buyers realtor and she held that deal together while my realtor was hiking in Peru! That was over 10 years ago! She was amazing then and even more so now! I’ve recommended her to many friends and recently she was our realtor for selling our home! From beginning to end she was absolutely phenomenal and I don’t say that lightly! She was always available for questions and was incredibly helpful throughout the selling process! If you are looking for a realtor in the Austin Travis Co area you cannot go wrong having her as your realtor and true advocate! She is as I like to say simply good people! My two other experiences with realtors in the past was ok at best. Jamie is absolutely incredible to say the very least! Everyone I’ve recommended her to has loved her and also recommended her! I only wish she could be our realtor in North Carolina where we moved to! Outstanding and very personalized service along with her integrity are what make her so special to work with! I can’t recommend her enough!" "I first met Jamie as my previous buyers realtor and she held that deal together while my realtor was hiking in Peru! That was over 10 years ago!

"I both listed a home and bought one using Jamie and her team, and I can assure you they know their stuff :). My sale came with its own set of challenges, but she and her team managed it like the pros they are -- I knew I was in good hands. Jamie has a unique ability to strike the right balance between listening and offering feedback like a friend while demonstrating that she is, indeed, a sharp real estate professional who always strives to do the best for her clients. In addition to being a delight to spend time with, Jamie has a wealth of knowledge about Austin and the real estate industry, as well as a list of top-notch vendors she can hook you up with as you prep for sale or after you buy. My house never looked better than after her stager was finished. I would recommend her and her team without hesitation to anymore seeking to buy and/or sell a home!"

"Jamie (and her team) are absolutely amazing! I would use her again and would recommend her to anybody looking for a realtor in Austin. She is smart, organized, responsive, a great communicator and really good at her jobs. From our first meeting, Jamie's advice was spot on. She understood our goals, the market, and the process. She worked with us to figure out what we should update on the house, she connected us with great people to do the work, Chad helped coordinate and facilitate the work and did much of it himself, and when it was time to list the house, her strategy for staging and pricing was brilliant. The house looked amazing and we had 3 offers above asking the first weekend. And - Jamie made it all fun. I could not be more thrilled." "Jamie (and her team) are absolutely amazing!

Frequently Asked Questions
How much can I afford to spend on a home?

Determining your budget involves considering your income, expenses, and creditworthiness. Consulting with a mortgage lender will help you understand how much you can borrow and what monthly mortgage payments you can comfortably afford.

What is the difference between pre-qualification and pre-approval?

Pre-qualification is an initial assessment based on your self-reported financial information, giving you a general idea of how much you might be able to borrow. Pre-approval, on the other hand, involves a thorough examination of your financial documents by a lender, resulting in a more accurate estimate and a conditional commitment to lend you a specific amount.

How long does the home buying process take?

The duration can vary based on several factors, including market conditions, finding the right home, securing financing, and completing inspections and paperwork. On average, the process typically takes around 30-45 days from the accepted offer to closing.

 

What are closing costs, and who pays for them?

Closing costs are fees associated with the finalization of a real estate transaction. They typically include costs such as appraisal fees, title insurance, lender fees, and taxes. Both the buyer and seller have closing costs, but traditionally the buyer is responsible for a majority of them. However, these costs can be negotiated as part of the purchase agreement.
