Albert Allen

★★★★★
"Albert Allen is hands down the best realtor I've worked with so far. He gave me realistic feedback about my search, genuinely listened and got to know my style, and ultimately helped me buy something that really works for me. He's friendly, professional, and super knowledgeable. He will definitely be my choice when I'm ready to buy or sell anything in Austin." - Audra T.

"Albert was a phenomenal realtor; we can’t say enough good things about him. From the early stages of home-searching through the close, Albert always made us feel like a priority. Being first-time home buyers, he was an excellent resource for understanding the process and what to look out for (the good and the bad) in houses. We strongly recommend that any potential buyers reach out to Albert! ETA: We recently worked with Albert to sell our home as we head back to the east coast, and we had another great experience working with him. He is extremely knowledgeable about the buying and selling process, and he provided guidance that allowed us to make the best decisions for us. The market is a bit different now than it was even a year ago, and we were so grateful to have an experienced realtor to help us. We were very happy with the results of our sale. Thank you, Albert!!" - Margaret B.

"It was wonderful working with Albert. He was on top of everything and was a phone call or text away at anytime. Lissi and I know when we are ready to buy a house again we are definitely returning to Albert. His team is amazing as well." - Hans + Lissi R.

"Albert Allen of Compass is a pro through and through. I have now sold two houses with him and will use him again in the future. So should you!" - Anonymous

"Albert is the best real estate agent in Austin - hands down. Albert is highly professional, knowledgeable, organized, and thoughtful in his approach. Albert understands the market, clearly articulates value and risks. As a family, my parents, Sam, and I all value Albert's opinion and he gets the estimate right every time. In a time with a lot of hype in real estate, Albert focuses on the core values of his clients. We were particularly impressed with Albert this time around as he found our dream house off-market. We recommend Albert to all our friends and feel lucky we found Albert so early in our home buying journey in life. You all are lucky to have Albert on the team!" - Juliana

"It was our pleasure to have Albert represent us in the selling of our house in Austin. He took a great deal of time talking with us about the process of selling our home and explaining the current market to us. He answered all of our questions and made fantastic suggestions. He has the patience of a saint and was positive and consistently available to us and always, always helpful. Albert was extremely professional and yet totally down to earth. He and his wife staged our house and did a wonderful job. It looked beautiful and very inviting. One of the things that I and my husband really appreciated about Albert was that he was very thoughtful in helping us price our house at a realistic price so that it would sell and not linger on the market. In conclusion, Albert is a top-notch Realtor. I would recommend him to anyone who might be looking to buy or sell their house. We were very blessed that he represented us because as stressful as buying or selling a house can be, having a great Realtor that is available in those moments of doubt and fear is priceless.

" Albert was a joy to work with! " - Laura T.

"It has been a pleasure working with Albert to find my house in Austin. It is never easy shopping from a different state, but Albert made it significantly easier. From the very beginning, he has been extremely helpful and enjoyable to work with. He listened to my considerations and provided frequent updates on inventory fluctuations as the market evolved over the course of the year. When I planned trips to Austin, he promptly coordinated times for us to meet to go on tours. When we toured homes, he provided useful insights about the neighborhoods we visited, the conditions of each house, and knowledge about maintenance. As I prepared to make offers, he explained the process to me and shed light on what kinds of offers were competitive in the market. He helped make my first independent home purchase as easy as I could have ever wished for. Beyond being an excellent agent, Albert is an all-around great guy and someone I really enjoyed getting to know over the course of the home-buying process. I would (and have) refer him to other friends who are shopping in the Austin area." - Aditya V.

★★★★★
"Albert was a great realtor to have in my corner. I got lucky having connected with him by chance using Zillow's 'schedule a tour' feature when a house came up that I wanted to see. Some of his strengths:
Very knowledgeable and educated me on the home buying process
Responsive and good availability for showings
Kept me motivated when I got down or frustrated in my housing search
Gave me good information on the offers I made that weren't picked
Genuinely friendly and not pushy or 'salesy.'
Helped make the closing smooth and brought me a birthday cupcake with a candle since I closed on my birthday.

I wouldn't hesitate to refer Albert to friends or family." - Anna

★★★★★
"Albert was great. He was patient, experienced, and charismatic. I even recommended him to a friend looking to buy a house! Looking forward to working with him again." - Michael

★★★★★
"Without question, Albert Allen is a top-tier real estate professional, someone with that rare combination of knowledge, skills, experience, and dedication buyers and sellers routinely seek out. In the selling of our home, everything was done right, from the cost estimating, the staging, negotiations, to closing. He proactively kept us informed and did a great job of managing our expectations as well as our desires. We are extremely satisfied and hope that you will reward and promote him at the earliest opportunity.
For what it's worth, I am not a real estate novice. As a veteran who has lived from New England to Hawai'i and an investor since I have dealt with many real estate professionals over the past 30 years. In Austin, I have mostly sold properties on an FSBO basis. But Albert is that class apart, someone who adds significant value, whether working for families or on an investment basis. It's that level of dedication to detail and to customer service that truly sets apart the average real estate agent or broker from the superior ones. Albert is one of the superior ones." - Fred

★★★★★
"Albert is the best! Albert helped us with the purchase of our first home. He stuck through it with us for months, finding a home in a difficult market. He always had a positive attitude and kept us motivated. He was knowledgeable and great at setting expectations for us. He was very personable, and I feel like I can actually call him a friend. I will recommend Albert to all of my friends." - Jonathan

★★★★★
"Albert combined a great combination of optimistic reality and pragmatic follow-up. I never doubted his credentials as the right person for the job, and experienced his expertise first-hand with a full price offer, pending, and closing in 18 days. Several others warned me that the holidays were the wrong time to list a home. Albert said he would get it done, and did.
Albert knows Austin, and Albert sells homes. I highly recommend him." - Joe

★★★★★
"Albert was fantastic. Albert recently assisted us with a home purchase and a subsequent sale. He was always very timely in his responses and provided a significant amount of relevant and useful information throughout the entire process. This was clearly not his first rodeo, as he was very knowledgeable and was able to provide a lot of context when we had questions. I would not hesitate to recommend him for either a buying or selling transaction." - Steve

★★★★★
"Albert was great to work with throughout our home buying process. He was very familiar with all the areas of Austin and their associated offerings (schools, food, traffic patterns, etc.) as well as the various deal structures we encountered during our process. He was proactive with home searches, very thoughtful about our constraints, flexible, and very responsive to our communications. He operates with a high level of integrity, both for you as a client and as an industry member." - JImmy

★★★★★
"My husband and I had a great experience working with Albert. He was flexible, responsive, and very knowledgeable of the neighborhoods we were interested in. He was able to point out things about homes we saw (both positive and not so positive) that would otherwise have gone unnoticed by us. We definitely felt that he had our back, and wanted us to feel happy with whatever home we purchased. I would totally work with Albert again and recommend him to anyone looking for a home." - Maggie + Ben

★★★★★
"We had an excellent experience with Albert. He was knowledgeable and incredibly helpful throughout our first home buying experience. He showed us upwards of 20 houses before we found the one we wanted and was patient with us the entire time.
I have already recommended him to a friend that wants to purchase a house in the Northwest Hills area." - Sam

★★★★★
"As someone who works with a lot of Realtors, I can honestly say that Albert is hands down one of the best!
Market knowledge should be a given, and Albert certainly has it. He will work his tail off for you and give you honest advice. He's extremely trustworthy. Albert does all the little things and consistently goes above and beyond with all of his clients. I've seen it multiple times first hand. Albert is also a genuinely nice person with a kind and big heart and has a lot of empathy for others.
If you are looking for a fantastic, honest, hard-working Realtor, I promise that you are in good hands with Albert Allen" - Adam

★★★★★
"I have high expectations of people I do business with, and Albert did not let me down. What most impressed me is his knowledge of the market, the ability to simplify the process, and responsiveness to questions and requests. We had a unique closing process that had some hiccups on the lender side, but Albert was always able to help work through those issues and did it in a positive way to keep me feeling good about the situation. I cannot say that about some prior experiences in the home buying process. If you need to buy a home, look no further than Albert Allen. He gets it done!" - Omar

★★★★★
"Simply the best! Incredibly personable and will always go the extra mile (literally!) as he drove from Austin to Galveston numerous times. Purchasing the home was a breeze! We were out of state quite a bit while inspections went on. Albert was right there; taking photos and filling us in every step of the way. He even gave us a lovely, heartfelt gift when we closed. Not your average Realtor. I recommend him highly!" - Wendy

★★★★★
"Albert is incredible at what he does! We've gotten to know him this year at Builder Boost, and the care and sincerity he puts into serving his clients is so refreshing. He goes over and above! He's always out learning and is a wealth of knowledge about the market." - Kim

★★★★★
"Albert and I worked together in the past, so I had prior knowledge of his exceptional professionalism, work ethic, and skills. I knew that I would be getting a top-notch professional as a Realtor when I needed to sell my house. However, I was even surprised when he far exceeded even my high expectations! I don't often assign perfect scores to anything or anyone, but I have no reservation about giving Albert a perfect score for a perfect job. I also enthusiastically recommend Albert to anyone who wants the absolute best! You can't do better." - Jim

★★★★★
"My husband and I have moved over a dozen times, and Albert is by far the best and most knowledgeable real estate agent we have used. We are new to the Austin area, and Albert gave us a great welcome pack to help us get acquainted with all the great Austin neighborhoods. Once we narrowed our neighborhood search, Albert helped us find a great property right away. Albert and his agency have great local pros to help with all your needs and to protect you during the buying and contract process. Albert and his team always respond quickly. They are easy to work with and are experts in local real estate values and comps, which are so important during the negotiation process. After working with Albert, we highly recommend him. In addition to being a real estate pro, he is active in the Austin community and is a warm, honest, and respectful person." - Charles + Cynthia

★★★★★
"Albert went above and beyond for us. His knowledge of the area (NN Hills) is impressive. His professionalism is unsurpassed: he was patient and never pressed us to settle. Albert has great availability and knows how to schedule appointments, giving multiple time slots. Finally, he’s just a really great guy." - C.

★★★★★
"We moved to Texas in 2016, and we didn't know anyone here. When we found a house in Austin on Zillow, Albert was the first person to reach out to us. We met with him at that house, where he took the time to help us understand real estate in Texas, which had some differences to where we were from. Due to work schedules and the drive from Temple, we were limited to weekends. Albert cleared his calendar on the weekends for us. His comforting words to us were he would make us a number one priority. The second weekend we found our house, and with only a few hours until the bidding closed, he got all of the paperwork put together and submitted.
We got the call we were waiting for. We got our forever home. Albert went many steps farther for us by giving us advice on some of the local tax laws, walked us through everything for our closing, and helped to find numbers of contractors for things we might need to be done. He continues to stay in touch and lets us know what is going on in the community and with his real estate company. He puts out a newsletter, and we are always on the mailing list. When I had questions about anything to do with our house or the state laws, I always had someone I could go to. He made our real estate experience pleasurable, and we thank him." - Diane

★★★★★
"Albert was extremely helpful in both searching for properties and dealing with issues/answering questions during my transition period. The effort he put in to help me with my move was above and beyond my expectations, and he was very responsive throughout the whole process. Since I was managing this move from across the country, I could not have done it without him!" - Joe

★★★★★
" Albert is very knowledgeable and supportive during the entire process - from home search to loan closing. We asked a lot of questions, and he was always available to take our call. We shopped pre-owned to new build, and he was great at hearing our needs and showing us properties that fit our needs. " - Mario

★★★★★
"My wife and I recently completed a home purchase with Albert. The entire experience was excellent, and Albert has our highest recommendation. The process started with a meeting where we discussed our situation with him. We covered all the necessary details: what we're looking for, price range, condo vs. house, Austin neighborhoods, the timeline and process for closing a deal, and more. Albert knew about every Austin neighborhood, which was a huge help for us because we are very new to the city. After the first meeting, Albert set us up with an Austin MLS app on our phones and computers to check out recent listings. After we found a place we were interested in, Albert would promptly check the listing and discuss it with us. This helped us narrow down our options. After we found what would become our new home, Albert walked us step-by-step through the process. Albert's advice during this time was crucial to our successful deal. From making the offer to closing, Albert was in touch the whole time to make sure we were on-track. Throughout the whole process, Albert was friendly, professional, polite, on-time, and overall a great guy to work with. If you're buying a house, use the best, use Albert!" - Nicholas

★★★★★
"Albert was very professional and kept us informed throughout the sale. He gave us great advice and helped us close in a very short time frame. We would absolutely recommend using Albert again." - Hans

★★★★★
"Making a move to another city can be quite daunting, but fortunately, we found Albert Allen. As our Realtor, he created a personalized search with our desired criteria that allowed us to view homes, make notes, etc., it was the perfect tool for communicating long distance with our Realtor. Albert was very accommodating as we traveled from Dallas to Austin to look for homes over several months. He expeditiously answered all calls and emails no matter the time of day. His professionalism and knowledge of not only real estate but the city were a great asset. The information he provided us with helped us make the best decision for our family when we chose our home. We highly recommend Albert to anyone in the market to purchase a home." - Delicia

★★★★★
"Albert helped us sell our property in less than 2 weeks! Listing to closing. Our property was a condominium and Albert did all the leg work necessary to help get the property ready for sale and for the showings that we had. We essentially had 2 interested parties ready after the first day." - Klaus

★★★★★
"We can't recommend Albert enough. He knows the Austin real estate market inside and out, was patient with us as we changed what we were looking for at least 10x, was transparent and helpful throughout the buying process, and honestly just a really nice guy/fun to work with. I highly recommend him and we will certainly use him again when the time comes!" - Natalie

★★★★★
"Great Realtor! Very professional and helpful, very pleased, he showed us listings that met our particulars on what we did and did not want. I will definitely recommend him to friends and family that need a Realtor." - Veronica

★★★★★
"Albert went above and beyond, always responded to my questions (even late at night), and helped me through my first purchase process. He never tried to push me into doing one thing or the other." - Alex

★★★★★
"Albert was terrific. Ahead of all the paperwork. During a rainstorm, he even drove out to the neighborhood to check out the drainage and potential flooding from the river without us asking. He was available at all hours for us morning noon and night and definitely knew his stuff." - George

★★★★★
"Albert was wonderful to work with. He is very upbeat and has a delightful personality. He guided us every step of the way while we were searching for our new home. We came from out of state and didn't know that there were so many differences in purchasing a house. He looked out for us and made sure we understood the process as we went through it. He was always there for us, juggling his schedule to accommodate ours. He never missed returning a phone call or an email. He listened to us and what we were looking for and he found us the absolute perfect house in only 2 weeks. After closing, he still stood by us to help answer questions and provide knowledgeable information on living in Texas. I have never had such a pleasant experience in real estate." - Diane

★★★★★
"As first-time home buyers, my husband and I did not know what to expect in the process. We are so thankful that we had Albert as our guide to the process. From looking at our first home to closing with the lender, he was able to provide us with the insight and tools we needed to get through it. His approach was warm and personable, and we felt like we were not "just another client." We would highly recommend him to anyone - we plan on doing just that!" - Amber

★★★★★
"Albert was very professional and explained the entire process to a clueless first-time homeowner (me). It was easy to follow him in this home buying process! I definitely would recommend him!" - Allie

★★★★★
"Albert is a great Realtor, very professional! He made finding and applying for a new house a very easy process. He walked us through the application process and answered all the questions we had in a timely manner. I would definitely recommend him to anyone who needs a Realtor!" - Therese

★★★★★
"Living in another city, I needed a person I could really trust when it came time to sell my parent's home. Albert Allen exceeded my expectations in every way. From helping to prepare the home to sell, to fielding offers and negotiating on my behalf, to expediting all the hassles of closing, Albert did a truly impressive job at every step of the way. I think what I appreciated most is that Albert is a great communicator. I always felt like I knew exactly what was going on, despite being 160 miles away. I would not hesitate to recommend Albert to anyone." - Steve
