Testimonials

Very aggressive, kept me up to date, was very concerned and eager to sell my house, both Chris and Jacque were very responsive.

Andy Wisner

Chris Long went the extra mile to help us sell our home. He arranged to have it staged and gave us good advice to make it attractive to buyers. He negotiated on our behalf in a professional manner. He is very knowledgeable about the market and the neighborhoods.

Susan & Robert Patton

Chris is an incredibly intelligent, dedicated and professional agent. By far, the best I've ever worked with. He was in constant communication with us throughout the entire process and we couldn't be happier with the service and outcome on the sale of our home!

We recently bought our first home in Brykerwoods. I can honestly say that we would not have gotten the house that we wanted if we had worked with anyone other than Chris Long. His knowledge of the central Austin market and the resources he has to work from are outstanding. We were recommended by good friends and will recommend him to everyone I possibly can. He and his assistant Jacque were always there to help me and there was truly added value to their services. I HIGHLY recommend taking advantage of Chris's contacts and listen to what he says. I repeat, if we had been with any other agent, we would not have gotten this house. Thanks, Chris!

Cyrus and Rhianna

Chris' assistance helping ready my property for sale, his marketing and pricing strategy that leveraged Realty Austin's technology and his savvy negotiating with buyers made for an easy experience, resulting in a successful near full-price all-cash sale. His charisma and candor make him wonderful to work with.

Eric Rabbanian

Chris has a keen understanding of the area and was great about helping us find neighborhoods.

Thom & Kerry Gehring

Realty Austin did a great job of helping us buy a home. Chris was a fantastic Realtor. He guided us through the process of buying our first home from a distance. We felt comfortable and confident with Chris as our Realtor and would refer him to our friends.

Clay Basser-Wall & Johanna Burwell

My husband and I moved from California to Austin, TX in Spring 2004. As first-time homebuyers and out-of-towners we needed all the help we could get from our realtor, and Chris was the perfect match for us. Chris worked with us for several months via telephone, email, and the internet to help us clarify what we were looking for. He educated us about Austin's neighborhoods, sent us home listings on a regular basis and visited open houses on our behalf. During the entire process, we felt completely at ease with him and knew that he would rather not sell us a house at all than sell us a house that wasn't right for us. We felt well taken care of throughout the closing process as well through Chris' professionalism, reliability, and integrity. We love our new home in Austin and are currently working with Chris on our next project. We heartily recommend Chris!

Pete and Julia Feighner

We love our home ALMOST as much as we LOVE our realtor, Chris Long. No one will work harder to make your dream home a Reality! Chris made the process seamless and fun - when we were discouraged, he renewed our hope, time and time again. You won't find anyone who will work harder to make your dreams come true! Thanks Chris!

Susan Campion & Candis Guidry

I want to say Thanks for the wonderful job you did selling my home. I was surprised by the strong feelings I experienced and I´m grateful for the way you guided the process along so smoothly!

Russ Gregory

Being new to Austin and having no knowledge of who to choose for a realtor, Chris Long was a godsend. My previous experiences with buying or selling a home had been less than pleasant. Chris made the process seamless. He was communicative every step of the way, letting me know exactly what was going on. He worked diligently to make sure I got the house I wanted while staying within my budget. He has renewed my faith in the home buying process.

Casey Cummins

Chris has very fast follow-up time - he always returned calls & e-mails - He assessed my situation quickly and we moved forward.

Chris did a great job of keeping us informed/updated and taking us on house tours. He was incredibly professional and proactive in finding potential properties of interest.

Adam Toguchi

Chris helped us find a replacement home withing a tight three week deadline. He respected our expressed housing needs and worked hard to come up with a large number of quality homes to show us. When negotiations for the new house got tense, he relieved the pressure and took over dealing fairly and assertively with the builder's salesman. Chris is a model agent. He handles everyone involved with a superb 'I count and you count too,' attitude. Chris and his clients will realize great rewards.

Richard Brown

Chris and his team went above and beyond to sell my house, including managing last-minute snags during the final process while I was out of town. He kept me informed at regular intervals, and was well-informed about changes in the local market. I would recommend Chris to anyone considering buying or selling home anywhere in the Austin metro area.

Jim Zalles

It was really nice meeting with Chris. He did a great job! Thanks.

LOVE Chris!

Chris was fabulous.

I was wrapping up one job, travelling, and starting another job (in another city) while I was selling my house. Chris stepped up and took care of anything that needed doing and went way beyond what I would have expected or have previously experienced with realtors. Because of market conditions, the house took longer to sell than either of us had anticipated, but Chris continued to market it aggressively until he found a strong buyer. In the negotiations, I felt like Chris was truly my advocate, rather than just trying to close the deal so that he could get his commission and move on. I would (and already have) highly recommend Chris. Any realtor who sells a house for me in the future has a new level of expectations to meet.

Coming from out of state and having only limited time to shop for a home, Chris and his team assisted us in narrowing our list, touring the best prospects, and getting the purchase under way quickly. Throughout the sales process and beyond, Chris has been very candid, comprehensive, and professional. His insights into the Austin market and attention to our needs has proven to be an invaluable resource during our relocation. I highly recommend Chris to home buyers, particularly new Austin residents.

Chris was great to work with and we will use him again. Our experience was seamless and stress free from contract to closing.

Very aggressive, kept me up to date, was very concerned and eager to sell my house, both Chris and Jacque were very responsive.

Our sale - a 2 bedroom condo for our children who are college students and new college grads living in Austin - was small in comparison to the more typical real estate Chris deals in. However, he didn't make us feel small - his and Jacque's personalized service, quick response, and extra effort during and after the sale - all made us feel as if we were their most important clients. Thanks for an outstanding job!!

Sharon Jones

Chris helped me buy a home from 1751 miles away. He was able to negotiate a great deal and provided boots on the ground when I needed someone to check out the house before I could be here. I would highly recommend him. Kevin Kelley

In a sea of mediocre real estate agents, Chris Long shines like a star. Highly intelligent, Chris knows the Austin real estate market inside and out. He knows where to buy and why and can show you the numbers to prove it. Our move to Austin and the purchase of our home was much more complicated and emotional than we anticipated. However, Chris made everything as simple and painless as he could. He truly cared about us finding the right home, and jumped over MANY hurdles to make sure we happy. Chris gets it on both a personal and professional level for his clients. He is much more than a real estate agent, he is now our friend.
