"Lilly was our realtor for our recent home purchase in Austin and we highly recommend her. Lilly stands out for her knowledge, flexibility, connections, patience, and thorough advocacy.
At the start, Lilly took time to get to know our needs. She then worked with our schedule to see homes when we were available. Lilly has insight into basically every neighborhood in Austin and every issue that might come up in a house. If Lilly didn't know the answer to a technical question about a house, she always had a list of people to contact to get multiple opinions. She was patient with us as our goals changed during our home buying experience and worked fast when we needed to get an offer in. It always felt like Lilly had our best interests at heart and didn't want us to overpay for a property. We ended up in a sticky and unusual contract situation (that had to do with the sellers, not Lilly!) and she helped us navigate that expertly. We loved working with Lilly and would go to her for any Austi…
"Lilly is a fantastic real estate agent! As a first time homebuyer, I had many questions, and she guided me through the entire process. I also learned so much along the way from her like things to consider when purchasing older homes, what questions to ask selling agents, things to ask inspectors. There was a very short period where I was considering a new build, and based on what she knew about my preferences, she went out of her way to go look at the new build on her own and send me footage, so I wouldn’t lose out on an offer I wanted to put in. She’s also an Austin native and brings so much local insight to her clients. She pointed me to many vendors during my option period and even stepped in to help with additional inspections while I was out of the country. I couldn’t have asked for a more patient and caring realtor! I think we saw at least 50 homes to get to my final purchase. Thanks for everything you do Lilly!"
"If you are looking for a real estate agent, look no further. I was a first time homeowner and also a first time home seller.
When I was ready to sell my house, Lilly was referred to me. Lilly made the process of selling my house seamless! At every turn, Lilly was ahead of the game.
I got the price range that I was seeking in selling my house, and she also sold my house promptly. After I made arrangements to work with Lilly, she immediately had a photographer come out so that my house could be put on the MLS. She also began holding open houses and showing my house regularly from the get-go. Lilly was great in communicating with me through text, emails, and calls. This really helped since I was out of town while selling my house.
If you are considering whether or not to work with Lilly, I highly recommend that you choose her if you want to sell your house expeditiously and for the price that you are seeking. I would recommend her to anyone in my family or any one of my friends. She's…
"After 46 years of living in one house, we decided it was time to move closer to family. Our son, who lives in Austin said "You should call Lilly Rockwell, she's a great communicator, you'll like her, she's good people." Lilly has the ability to guide even first- time buyers through all the high points and pitfalls of homebuying. She knows the market and the importance of timing, the locations, and the nature of neighborhoods. Likewise, she knows and understands people, their fears, hopes, and dreams and is able to knit that understanding into the complex profile of the kind of home you envision. She stays with you all the way, communicating regularly, and navigating the search, the inspections, and the negotiations with equal calm and professionalism. Her communication skills are excellent and her patience is boundless. No matter how many times you ask her to explain the same question, she responds with humor and empathy. Bottom line is that thanks to Lilly we purchased the house we re…
"We worked with Lilly in buying our first single-family home this year, and we can't recommend her enough. She was extremely knowledgeable about the Austin market, and she was detail-oriented, thorough and so patient with us as we navigated our home-buying journey. The house we chose ended up having aging cast iron pipes, and she helped us save more than $50,000 on replacement costs when we got multiple bids with astronomical estimates. She was able to consult her network to confirm that these estimates were insane and able to point us to some different plumbers who gave much more reasonable estimates. Her communications skills were A+ (no surprise, given she's a former journalist), and she worked hard on our behalf throughout the process. She showed up to provide access to the house at least half a dozen times for plumbing bids and other inspections while we were under contract on the house and waited (sometimes for hours) during the window given for the plumber's arrival time. We love…
