"Ashley and her team did a great job helping me through the sale of my home. Selling a house can be stressful, and there were a lot of moving pieces along the way, but Ashley was responsive, knowledgeable, and steady throughout the process. She helped keep things moving, handled the details, and guided me through each step with professionalism and care. I really appreciated having her and her team on my side and would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a thoughtful, capable realtor. " - Holi H.

"As a first-time homebuyer, I had no idea what I was getting into — but Ashley made the entire journey feel manageable, exciting, and even fun. From day one, she took the time to truly understand what I was looking for. Her deep knowledge of the Austin market is invaluable and helped me make informed decisions every step of the way. Whenever I had a question (and I had a lot of them!), she was always just a text or call away — responsive, patient, and genuinely happy to help. Buying your first home is a big deal, and it means everything to have a team that treats it that way. I couldn't recommend The Brinkman Team more highly!" - Teagan V.

★★★★★
"I had the pleasure of working with Ashley on a recent transaction where she represented the seller, and I couldn’t have asked for a better co-op experience. Ashley was professional, communicative, and incredibly knowledgeable about the contract and procedures—qualities that truly make a difference. In a market where there is a lot of stress and twists and turns, it was amazing to have this transaction go as smooth as it did. I truly appreciated her partnership from start to finish and am looking forward to working with her again!" - Melissa I.

★★★★★
"Ashley and her team were the best! We felt supported through the whole process. Me and my spouse were nervous at first but she definitely impressed us both! She helped with staging and setting up a line of communication. We look forward to working with her again and in the future. We will definitely be referring people to her. She also gifted us with such a sweet painting of the house we sold. She really understood how sentimental our house was to us. Thanks Ashley." - Brianna Y.

★★★★★
"Ashley and The Brinkman Team helped us sell our house in an incredibly tough Austin market with only two showings, and without ever going to the open market. Despite all the typical stress that comes with moving, the selling process could not have been more painless and we have them to thank! Highly recommend!" - Jessica B.

★★★★★
"Ashley and her team are amazing! They’ve helped us sell and buy a few times, and in this tough market helped us price our house correctly to get it sold and in a timely manner for the right price. She makes fun marketing videos as well to grab attention and get eyes on the house! Ashley makes the house selling process (which can be a pain!) easy and seamless with little stress. We are very thankful for Ashley and her expertise!" - Hunter L.

★★★★★
"We are SO glad we got to work with Ashley’s team again! Seven years ago, Ashley helped us buy our first home. Our first offer was accepted, even in a tough market. A year ago, she guided us through selling that same home, and thanks to her advice, we had it sold in a week. After a cross-country move and then deciding to move back, Ashley introduced us to Lorin, who helped us find and buy our dream home. What really sets this team apart is their commitment to staying connected with their clients throughout the years. We truly can’t recommend them highly enough!" - Brianne W.

★★★★★
"We were fortunate to use Ashley and team when we originally purchased our home (2018) and again when we sold (June 2025). Their marketing, pricing and overall attack plan had our home sold, quickly in one of the toughest markets. We were also 100% remote and this team did it perfectly. We are so grateful!! Thank you all!" - Jennifer G.

★★★★★
"Happy to share my experience with the Brinkman Group and Ashley Brinkman. I chose Ashley to represent the sale of our Austin property based on other reviews and after watching her social media content. She promotes properties with creativity and with an overall efficient process. Our negotiations and closing were conducted intelligently with integrity. I recommend Ashley and her team to provide professional services for your residential transaction." - Paul S.

★★★★★
"I didn’t work directly with Ashley when I purchased real estate, but I met her while living in Durango (she’s licensed in both Texas and Colorado). Anytime I had questions about my transactions, I reached out to her for a second opinion or guidance, and she was always incredibly genuine and honest. Her insight was thoughtful and helpful every time." - Robin M.

★★★★★
"If you're looking for a realtor in Austin, stop your search now! I've worked with The Brinkman Team three times now (two buys, one sell), and they are truly the real deal. Ashley’s experience with the Austin market is invaluable and her team of all female professionals bring so much knowledge to the table. Their proactive communication is a game-changer, always keeping us informed and making the process stress-free. I especially appreciate that Ashley keeps it real and provides direct feedback, something that’s very refreshing and hard to find in this industry. If you want a realtor who gets Austin and gets it done, look no further!" - Maury B.

★★★★★
"I purchased my first home in Austin with Joelle eight years ago and I recently sold that same home with Joelle at The Brinkman Team. The entire process from start to finish was smooth and efficient. Joelle is super knowledgeable of the local market and she provided valuable guidance throughout the entire process. Joelle is personable and great to work with. I high recommend The Brinkman Team to anyone looking to buy or a sell a home in Austin or surrounding area." - Melissa T.

★★★★★
"During our 11-month house search, my husband and I found The Brinkman Team professional, friendly and thorough. From an initial meeting with Ashley, who carefully listened to our needs, we identified likely communities to begin our search. We explored hundreds of properties using the well-designed Compass online platform to develop a substantial list of houses that met our needs. From that list and subsequent phone conversations, Joelle customized an in-person tour. We found "our house" the first day of looking, thanks to us all doing our homework. Joelle showed us houses that met our criteria in several neighborhoods and negotiated an attractive price on our preferred house. She is a great communicator and listener. Her professionalism and energetic and kind personality combined to put an unbeatable agent in our corner. We wholeheartedly recommend The Brinkman Team in general and Joelle in particular." - Janet S.

★★★★★
"Ashley is absolutely the best! We have utilized her and her team four times now and every time has been a great experience. Very helpful and very knowledgeable. They are also incredibly responsive. I highly recommend Ashley if you are buying or selling." - Michael S. L

" Lorin helped us navigate some pretty challenging sellers two months ago. We’ve been super happy with our purchase. " - Carolyn K.

★★★★★
"The Brinkman Team is amazing! They understand the Austin real estate market like no one else, and listen to your wants and needs and make sure you get as much as you can for the price point you are looking for. Always responsive and they make sure to find out the answers to all of your questions. They have very strong negotiation skills while making sure you are still in line with the current market rates. They stay positive through all the ups and downs of a real estate transaction, and understand this is the biggest purchase of your life, and always considering that. I highly recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell in the Central Texas area!" - Stephanie W.

★★★★★
"The Brinkman team was awesome in helping us purchase our first home! They were so organized and attentive throughout the entire process & made sure we were aware of what to do every step of the way. We couldn’t be happier with their services! We worked specifically with Joelle, and she was super reliable, knowledgeable and communicative! Thank you Brinkman team!" - Kelsey L.

★★★★★
"We started our home buying journey with a few realtors referred to us, but for one reason or another, they didn’t work out. Then we were recommended the Brinkman Team, and right from the start, they were responsive and professional. Choosing them turned out to be a great decision.
We were assigned Joelle, and let me just say, she’s a vibe for sure! From the first meeting, she was communicative, responsive, and honest. She toured multiple homes with us, pointing out issues like awkward layouts or homes that wouldn’t suit us long term. Her honesty and advice were exactly what we needed.
We finally came across a home we loved from the pictures and set up a tour. But that same evening, someone put in an offer, and it was showing as pending or active contingent depending on the various apps. This is where Joelle excelled, and I think this is the difference between an okay realtor and a great one. She encouraged us to go see it anyway, explaining that deals can fall through and it doesn’t hurt to check it out. When we saw the home, it was by far the best one we’d looked at in our price range. Joelle went to bat for us, reaching out to the listing agent, staying on top of the situation, and sure enough, that buyer’s contract fell through.
The situation was a bit unusual, involving solar panels, but Joelle navigated it seamlessly. After the inspection, she walked us through every detail, helping us prioritize what to negotiate. In the end, she negotiated $40k off the list price!
Nearing the end, the final appraisal came in above the negotiated price which was definitely a huge win for us!
I bring all the above up because things can get messy, and you better hope you have a capable realtor to navigate through it. We were so lucky to have Joelle in our corner.
Beyond the buying process, she connected us with a property management company for our current home and recommended contractors to prepare the new one before moving in.
The only downside was the Compass app the team uses. It lacked functionality, didn’t allow favorites in map view, and missed the neighborhoods we were interested in. All the homes we toured came from a different app, and we had to manually add them to Compass to keep Joelle informed. While this doesn’t reflect on Joelle or the team directly, it was a bit of a frustration.
Overall, Joelle and the Brinkman Team knocked it out of the park. If you’re looking for a realtor who’s honest, experienced, and client focused, Joelle is the one you want in your corner. Highly recommend!" - Shayer S.

★★★★★

From the first showing to closing day, their team was organized, responsive, and always had our best interests in mind. They took the time to understand our needs and worked diligently to help us find the right home. Beyond just finding the perfect place, they provided expert guidance, handled negotiations effectively, and ensured every step of the process was clear and manageable. Their professionalism and attention to detail made a real difference. If you’re looking for a dedicated, knowledgeable team to guide you through buying or selling a home, we highly recommend The Brinkman Team." - Ritesh S.

★★★★★
"We just closed on our brand new home In Georgetown TX a week ago & couldn’t be more pleased at the service we received from The Brinkman Team. Ashley and Joelle made the entire process light, fun and extremely informative. They assisted us in every aspect of the process, answering every question we had and made excellent recommendations for home inspection, moving companies etc…. They were a dream to work with and helped us finds our dream home in less than a week. I highly recommend this team if you are looking for your dream home!!" - KD LA

★★★★★
"The Brinkman team is professional and responsive and will call you, versus the typical companies that wait on you to call them and track them down.

They are a team that leads the way to success. Follow their lead and you will not be disappointed." - Ole Cowboy

★★★★★
"Brinkman Team for President!! All of the gals are great but we worked closely with Lorin & Ashley on our recent home purchase. Ashley & team are always positive, quick to respond & seasoned negotiators. The Brinkman team deserved the trust we put in them and they delivered. They found us our dream home at a price we didn’t think was possible. If you are buying or selling in Austin I HIGHLY recommend the Brinkman team" - Brittany C.

★★★★★
"Ashley has a great team of realtors. When we arrived, she introduced us to the current state of the market and offered useful advice on specific neighborhoods and buying strategies. Then, Lorin Martin showed us many houses and helped us submit an offer on a house in our desired neighborhood. Then, Joelle Chamorro negotiated a bit more for us which helped cover some of the upgrades we wanted. In the end, we landed the perfect house on our favorite street in Austin. Thank you, Brinkman Team!" - Neal W.

★★★★★
"I’ve LOVED working with The Brinkman Team. We worked with them to purchase a new home and they’ve been very helpful in helping us rent out our old home, as well. Throughout the entire process, we’ve felt completely supported. Lorin was our realtor and not only was she on top of her game, she was also so much fun to work with. I highly recommend working with The Brinkman Team for your next real estate transaction!" - Adrienne B.

★★★★★
"We had another amazing experience working with the Brinkman team! This is the second home we have worked with them to sell. They are with you every step of the way and go above and beyond to help answer your questions and support you. We were moving out of state and Ashley connected us to a realtor in the state we were moving to and recommended several moving companies to help us. We highly recommend the Brinkman team for anyone looking to buy or sell their home that wants a very positive outcome and experience. Look no further than Ashley and team, they truly are the best! " - Katrina B.

★★★★★
"This team was amazing to work with! Lorin took super good care of me, pointing out things I wouldn't have noticed in listings and home tours, reminding me of my priorities for buying when things got dizzying, and advocating for me with the seller's agent. Plus, these women are fun to work with!" - Sarah W.

"I would highly recommend Ashley Brinkman and her team to anyone looking for a realtor in the Austin and surrounding areas. My husband and I were first time home buyers and had a lot to learn about the home buying process. Ashley's team made the complicated process easy to understand and we had fun. We were able to take the process at our own pace and knew that we could always reach out with our questions. Additionally, every referral Ashley's team made was great to work with as well. I can't recommend this group of amazing ladies enough!!" - Rebecca B.

★★★★★
"I've had the pleasure of buying and selling multiple homes with The Brinkman Team - if you need the best in the business, look no further! My wife and I met Ashley in 2019 when we decided to sell our first home. As first-time home sellers (and I was a first time buyer too), the process was made very seamless and transparent thanks to her endless knowledge of all things real estate. The team went to bat for us and we ended up winning a beautiful house when matched up against 12 other offers. Talk about some serious negotiators! 4 years later, we knew who to call when we were ready to sell our home and move into something bigger. They gave us the confidence to buy our new home before listing the other, and it’s something I wouldn’t have considered without their expertise. Lorin worked countless hours to get the deal closed, and always made us feel like we were her top and only priority. Ashley’s endless connections in the Austin (and surrounding) area ensure your home will not go unnoticed, giving you the greatest chance to get the best offer when selling your home. Most importantly, my wife and I feel like we’ve made lasting connections with Ashely and her team, and look forwards to working with them for a very long time." - Kayanne A.

★★★★★
"Ashley and her team were awesome to work with! Ashley had so many resources for listing my home (designer to recommend changes, contractors, etc). Once it was ready to list, she and her team were on top of staging and photography. Throughout the process, she kept me updated on potential buyer feedback and while under contract, her team gave me a list of things to do before close and we stayed in close contact as we went through negotiations with the buyer. Ashley ended up being out of town at close, but Lorin stepped in to help and didn't miss a beat. Thanks so much to the Brinkman team! I'd highly recommend them whether you're looking to buy or sell." - Catie B.

★★★★★
"We just bought a house with Ashley and we cannot recommend her enough! We spent over a year looking for a house in this crazy market and we are so thankful for Ashley's continued advice and patience. She is extremely knowledgeable and really has your best interests at heart. It was clear that she wanted us to find a house that was right for us - she wasn't just focused on making a sale. Ashley and her team made the whole home buying process so easy and smooth. I will absolutely be using Ashley for any future home buying/selling in the future" - BD

★★★★★
"We had the pleasure of working with both Sandy and Ashley. Sandy was excellent at fleshing out our new home priorities. She patiently traveled around the area to help us determine the ideal location. A trip meant to narrow down our search ended with us purchasing our new home! We had a unique timeline and they helped make the transition effortless with their great communication and efficient processes. I cannot recommend The Brinkman Team enough! We are so thankful for the way they invest in their clients!" - Kathryn W.

"Ashley Brinkman is the BEST realtor out there. We could not have asked for more. She’s knowledgeable, passionate, driven, smart - she’s a total BOSS. She’s also easy to work with, fun to be around, and you always know you have the right person on your side. We’ve recommended her a million times over to our friends & family - and we always hear the same thing: “We’re so happy we chose Ashley. It made all the difference.” She’s a support even after the purchase/sell is finalized too. All around great experience!" - Stella M. L

★★★★★
"Ashley and her team are AWESOME! Very professional from start to end and always there to answer ANY questions. As a first-time home buyer, she guided us in the right way due to our budget. We bought our home when the market in Austin was chaos, but she and her team were always there to support. The Brinkman Team truly made my first-time home-buying experience a great one, and I couldn't have asked to work with a better team. I will definitely be referring Ashley and the Brinkman Team to all my friends and family." - Regina C.

★★★★★
" While I didn’t work with Ashley directly, her team was great. It was our first time buying a new-build home and we could have gone through the process without a realtor, but were much more comfortable working with the Brinkman team throughout the process. Sandy went out of our way to swing by and check on our house as it was being built and sent us photos. She was honest and truthful in which layout would likely provide a higher demand and resale value. We moved out of Austin for the first time so that we could find a larger home we could grow into. I highly recommend working with this team, especially if you are exploring the South Austin metro area and for areas between Austin and San Marcos. They gave us a cute gift when we moved in, but to my surprise, they also sent us a gift card when we got engaged! This team values working with you to find your home, but they also value you as a person and want to build a partnership with you. " - Katie M.

★★★★★
"Ashley and her team were essential in getting us through the process of getting our new home. The attentiveness during the process and the follow-up even months later are what will have me recommending her to everyone I know!" - Josh N.

★★★★★
"We loved working with Ashley and her team. She was extremely knowledgeable and helped us with every step of the process. The first time we met, she brought a team to our house and had a stager help us to get ready to sell. Her team set a clear timeline for us which was so helpful when there was too much to think about and were always available to answer questions. We had so much trust in Ashley and the Brinkman team that we even went on vacation while our house was on the market! She ran the showings and helped us select an offer while we relaxed. She negotiated a great deal for us and arranged a lease back while our new house was being finished. After we moved out, the team sent a crew in to clean the house for us. This was our third time selling a home (second time moving across the country) and this was our easiest sell." - Valerie B.

★★★★★

★★★★★
"My wife and I have recently worked with Ashley and her group to help us find and build our home. Ashley’s team was prompt to answer calls or to get back to us via text. Though we initially were looking to stay in the Round Rock area, we decided to live in New Braunfels and Ashley was more than accommodating! Whenever we needed a representative with us in New Braunfels, Ashley made arrangements to have someone with us! Thank you Ashley and your Team!!!" - Frankie P.

★★★★★
"Ashley was recommended to me by a friend and I will certainly be doing the same. She is an experienced professional who wastes no time.

If you're looking for someone to lean on through a challenging and stressful process, call Ashley." - Ryan S.

It's always a pleasure to engage her team and utilize her expertise throughout the buying experience. Ashley is super knowledgeable about the Austin market and has great instincts. I trust her judgment when it comes to writing offers and approaching sellers with our best foot forward. I also appreciate her vast network - she knows everyone and has a person for every job that she is open to sharing with her clients. I refer Ashley to all of our friends and family because she really is the best in Austin!" - Kasey L.

★★★★★
"Ashley and her team were excellent to work with for this first-time buyer -- I felt extremely supported, and although I had a lot of questions (potentially overkill amount of questions and hypothetical scenarios!) Ashley + Team were always quick to respond, provided the context and explanation I needed to feel confident, but also provided realistic expectations and shot me straight when needed! I highly recommend working with Team Brinkman!" - Brittany C.

★★★★★
"Ashley Brinkman is simply incredible. She has helped us sell 2 houses (1 was a mngmt property) and buy 2 houses, and I just can't imagine doing it without her knowledge, expertise, and thoroughness.

Great realtor, and a great team! 10/10 recommend!!!! " - Jessica S.

★★★★★
"Words can’t explain how grateful and appreciative I am for Ashley and her entire team. My motto is ‘if Ashley can’t do it then it can’t be done'. She helped me buy my first home in 2015 and is now my forever home. When working with her team they treat you like family and ensure no box goes unchecked. Despite how crazy the market can be they have the resources to get things done. From selling to buying in less than 30 days is unbelievable. Thank you so much." - Shannan R.

★★★★★
"We had an incredible experience working with the Brinkman team! This is the second home we have worked with them to purchase and first home we worked with them to sell. They are true professionals and really know their stuff! We had invaluable and candid guidance from Ashley advising us on how to best stage and prepare our home for selling, and had incredibly responsive support from Tasha answering our questions very thoroughly and promptly. We highly recommend the Brinkman team for anyone looking to buy or sell their home who wants the peace of mind that their relator team is working hard on their behalf and has an excellent track record, especially in a very competitive market." - Katrina B.

"As a whole, I would just like to say my entire experience with Ashley and the team was phenomenal. Throughout the entire process, Sandy and Ashley were always prompt to answer any questions I had and went above and beyond to address my concerns. For many of the questions I had, they were able to provide real-life experience to their answers which helped add to the validity. Their experience and relationships played a huge factor in each step of the process and never did I feel overwhelmed or rushed. There is nothing more I could have asked for from the team as a whole and have all the intention to continue working with them in the future. " - Dave O.

★★★★★
"Our experience with Ashley & team was absolutely outstanding. Going into all of this, I expected working with a realtor to not be a major value add ("it's the Austin market, houses can't sell fast enough" was my thought). What Ashley and her team did in terms of strategy for pricing, nuances for staging, and beyond everything else the support they gave us was beyond what we could have expected. I am fully confident our home would have sold regardless, but what they brought to the process definitely leveled up the speed with which it sold, the amount we received, and making sure it went to the right buyers." - Brian

★★★★★
"Working with Ashley and her team was wonderful. They helped us every step of the way. We have and will continue to recommend them to others." - Lallie G.

Would highly recommend!" - Abby G.

★★★★★
"My wife and I are extremely happy with the work that Ashley & team did. She gave us great advice, helped us get a good price for our house, and put us in touch with a fellow Compass Realtor, Justin Phillips, who helped us land our new home in Temple. We've actually known Ashley for several years - she owns a house across the street from us and lived there for a while - and we wanted her to be our Realtor, even over a good friend of ours, because we knew that she knows this neighborhood backward and forwards. We couldn't be more pleased with the results. " - Jeff G.

Thank you for making the process as smooth as possible and leaving no room for doubts in my decisions!" - Sarah G.

"Ashley, Sydney, Tasha, and the Brinkman team made the entire process of buying in Austin a breeze. We came from out of state and did most of our home searching virtually. The team was super attentive to our needs and helped us pinpoint a few specific areas we really liked. We ended up with the perfect new home in a neighborhood we love. The Brinkman Team was thoughtful and caring through every step of the process. They went above and beyond to make sure we felt appreciated and cherished as their clients. We look forward to buying another property with the Brinkman team again!" - Tommy G.

I thought this would be a stressful time, but I quickly realized that Ashley and her team had everything under control and it was honestly a very smooth process." - Anna L.

"What a whirlwind! I cannot say enough great things about Ashley and her team! After unexpectedly coming across a home my husband and I fell in love with, I reached out to Ashley and we quickly put in an offer. Her advice on how to present a strong offer without going out of our comfort zone won us the house in a multiple offer situation! That meant it was GO time and we listed our current home for sale just four days later and were under contract on it in just days, receiving a cash offer for quite a bit over the asking price! In such a stressful time of decision-making and hard work, we took so much comfort in knowing the business side of things were all being taken care of with professionalism by Ashley and her team. I am big on communication and was so impressed at how her team reached out with answers to questions I hadn't even thought about yet, every step of the way. Thanks to the Brinkman Team our family is now off to a new, exciting chapter!" - Holly R.

★★★★★
"The Brinkmann Team was fabulous every step of the way. They were able to provide referrals, outstanding market knowledge, and were always available to answer our questions right away. They went out of their way to make this an easy, comfortable, and fun experience. I will gladly recommend them to anyone!" - Lisa H.

"Sydney was an awesome first home buyer partner to have. She kept us informed about the process and reassured us of the waiting period as we got anxious! Everything went seamless and she even came to our blue tape walk to mark things with us. The whole Brinkman team was great from start to finish and I understand why my coworkers spoke so highly of them!" - Renzo C.

★★★★★
"This isn't my first time working with Ashley (and the Brinkman team, notably Sydney and Mikail). Our home search and buying process took a bit longer than we expected due to some issues we had with finding the right property and dealing with difficult sellers, but the Brinkman team was with us the whole way! They frequently communicated to make sure we had all of the information we needed and were always available to chat with us about any topic, including sharing information about what to expect as a future homeowner. They always reacted quickly to make sure we were the first buyers in line. They found answers to our toughest questions and made sure that our closing process went super smoothly. I will continue to work with Ashley and her team on any future real estate transactions, and I am always happy to share her information with everyone I know that's looking to buy/sell property in the Austin area." - Kyle A.

"The best decision I made when I decided to sell my house and purchase a new one was calling Ashley Brinkman first. Look, this market is bonkers, and you need Ashley and her team’s skills and knowledge to navigate these intimidating waters. The Brinkman team approach was the most critical piece to the success we had. Her entire team is always aware of what is going on, so you are never without the information you need when you need it. Sydney and Mikail truly reflect Ashley’s kindness, motivation, and hustle and are such an incredible compliment to the network that she has built.
Put your trust in this team. If you are selling your house and they recommend that you remove 50% of your household items such as living room furniture, or entire bedroom suits before it goes on the market, trust them and do it! Don’t ask questions and try to pretend you have some sort of magical knowledge that has just been repressed for many years. They know this market, they know what sells, and they want to get you the best offers possible. There is truly no better team in this business!" - Eryn M.

★★★★★
"Team Brinkman does it again! Sydney, Mikail, Ashley, and the rest of the entourage have made the home buying experience in a chaotic market memorable, seamless, and dare I say it… fun! I kept waiting to get stressed out and the moment never came. Nothing short of excellence, as usual. I will continue spreading the good word about Ashley & her team. " - Sarah C.

★★★★★
"Working with Ashley and her team was a wonderful experience. Everyone was helpful, friendly, and knowledgeable. We will definitely be working with them again in the future." - Allie F.

★★★★★
"Can’t say enough amazing things about Ashley and her entire team. Ashley helped us purchase our first house 5 years ago. And now 5 years later she helped us sell that same house. We have a realtor and friend for life and hope she continues to get the praise and recognition she deserves. Nothing but great things about Austin Realty as well. I manage a restaurant that is frequented by quite a few of your agents and it’s always great conversations. " - Moe + Ashley Q.

"I have nothing but good things to say about Ashley and her team with an outstanding review! Our needs changed in what we were looking for, and Sidney drove all over the Austin and greater area trying to help us find the right house. We had to do it all remotely as we had a 1-week old baby, and I was in the hospital trying to negotiate options on house #1. Ashley and her team really took the stress out of the transactions for us and took a lot of the heavy lifting on.
Ashley called us and walked us through all the options and processes. She's built an amazing team that were all very responsive via text, email, and calls. We bought two houses remote and never once went into them because of the trust, professionalism, and dedication Ashley and her team gave us.
We aren't using another agent ever in the greater Austin area, and every agent we've had to use outside of Ashley because of location or looking outside TX has left us highly disappointed because she sets such a high bar.
You have a diamond in her and her leadership, and she does an incredible job time and time again. " - Courtney G.

★★★★★
"Sydney (& Mikail) were absolutely amazing. From when Maura and I were looking for a place to rent to getting in the offer quickly and bang on, Sydney and everyone involved could not have been better. We found the house we wanted and secured it all stress-free. The entire process Sydney guided us through it all, answering any and all questions, and by the time closing came, I can hand on heart say it was an enjoyable experience. Sydney, Mikail, and the whole Brinkman team are genuinely not just a delight to work with but the best around." - Danny J.

★★★★★
"We bought our house during a cross-country move in 2012 with Ashley. She was able to help us find a home in our short time period that we ended up staying in for over the last 9 years. Throughout the years she’s stayed in touch remembering birthdays, Mother’s Day, and random things here and there. She’s not your typical realtor and is always there if you have a question. When we decided it was time to sell the home we bought with her in 2012 it was obvious we would have her help. We were again moving across country and she made it a breeze to get it done. Ashley and her team were always there with emails, phone calls, and texts taking care of us from miles away. We are so glad to have found her all those years ago and will continue to refer her to those in our lives in need. Thank you to you and your team for going above and beyond! " - Crystal O.

★★★★★
"Ashley is absolutely incredible. She's highly knowledgeable, responsive, and very thorough and communicative throughout the whole purchasing process. We bought 3 houses through 3 different realtors prior to finding Ashley. Since we have bought 4 and sold 2 houses with Ashley and the team and never plan to use another realtor. We have purchased short-term and long-term rental houses through her, and she knows a lot about both markets.
I only wish we could clone her for other markets we are shopping in. There's no one like her. Really remarkable." - Chantelle G.

★★★★★
"Our experience with Ashley and her team was great. She was very helpful with giving us guidance for pre-sale improvements, setting us up with a good contractor, and making sure everything with our relocation company Cartus was taken care of. We trust her experience and knowledge so much that we found ourselves asking for guidance when we were looking to buy a house in Tucson, AZ. While we had a very good agent here, she just didn't have the same experience with the crazy COVID market that Austin was already going through, and Ashley went above and beyond to help us navigate all the nuances of a seller's market Tucson was just beginning to see.
While we were getting our house renovated, Ashley went on vacation, and her team did a great job stepping up and keeping everything running smoothly. They kept in tight communication with the contractor and were ready to pull the trigger on putting the house up as soon as he was finished. The selling process also went very smoothly, so smoothly we didn't even realize it closed! Ashley made the call to keep our house on the market one more day, which enabled us to receive 3 more offers much higher than the initial one we got. Because we worked with a relocation company, we weren't involved with the actual closing, but everything went so smoothly it felt like we were barely able to check in before our house was sold.
All in all, we are so thankful for being able to work with Ashley when both buying and selling our house in Austin and really got to appreciate what separates good agents from great ones with our experience. " - Josh R.

★★★★★
"INCREDIBLE experience with Mikail & Ashley. Within days of meeting, we were on the house hunt & found the house of my dreams! I couldn’t imagine this journey with anyone else. I felt so seen, heard, & supported on this exhausting & often defeating journey. I just love this team!" - Francesca A.

★★★★★
"I couldn't be more satisfied after working with the Brinkman Team to buy a home. As a first-time homebuyer, I had no idea what to expect, especially in the crazy Austin housing market. The team made it such an incredible experience and helped me get into a home I love. They made themselves readily available, were extremely knowledgeable, had incredible recommendations about who to work with along the way, and remained patient and thorough as they navigated me through the whirlwind process. I feel incredibly lucky and am grateful to the Brinkman team!" - Jackie L.

"I cannot put into words how amazing the Brinkman team has been throughout the entire home buying process. As a first-time buyer, I connected with Ashley – thanks to a referral from a friend - knowing little to nothing about purchasing a house. Lucky for me, she, Sydney, and the rest of the team were there for me from the beginning to answer my questions, give me advice and guide me through the entire process. From my first call with Ashley to my first-time buyer onboarding session with Sydney, they made sure I knew the basics and what it takes to succeed in this hectic market before I started looking at houses. When I toured homes, Sydney showed me what to look for in a home and helped me go through the pros and cons of each house. Then once I was ready to make my first offer, Sydney helped me pull together a strong offer that was ultimately accepted. That’s right – my first offer was accepted thanks to her counsel! From there, the team helped guide me through the closing process. Now, I can officially say I am a homeowner. Thank you, Brinkman team!" - Cara M.

★★★★★
"I had the pleasure of being on the other end of a transaction with Ashley and the team. I am Ashley’s marketing coordinator, so this was my first true experience as her client.
I found a house on redfin hours after Ashley left for Costa Rica. I swear I was working! I called Sydney and asked her to show my husband and me the property. Short-term rentals are something Ashley knows about. So once we fell in love with both houses and ran some numbers, we face timed Ashley for advice in a jungle cafe. This was a big jump for us as it is our first short-term rental, and we had to have all of our ducks in a perfect row to make several rental properties pay for our “forever home” mortgage.
Sydney guided us in putting in an offer, and it was accepted excepted. The other agent was a bit of a nightmare, and we had no idea that at every turn, he was trying to get us to back out of the deal back out. I can’t tell you how many times Ashley and Sydney had to step up for us. Literally, late-night powwows to strategize our loan falling through at the last moment. There were many hurdles, but every step of the way, the team was there. We made it to closing and found out the listing agent had a 1-week cash close offer waiting for any slip-up and to take our earnest money.
I am so grateful for the knowledge and help they gave us along the way. We are officially moved in and putting the finishing touches on our Airbnb. The crazy thing is the team works this hard for all their clients. I see it every day, and if Ashley is out of town, I know that she trained a killer team to make everything run smoothly. We are lucky to have a team that has such a wide scope of expertise." - Kim W.

★★★★★
"This was the first time going through a home buying process, so I did not know how anything worked. Ashley and her team made it as smooth as possible. If I ever had any questions or concerns, they always explained everything to me in great detail and helped in any way they could. The team consistently reached out to make sure that I was always making the right moves and getting everything done I needed to in a timely manner. Every appointment, viewing, and deadline was met with precision. I never once had a problem with any member of the Brinkman team. Sydney was exceptional in helping me with most of my viewings and coming up with appropriate offers. This whole process was made so much easier with the professionalism and care from the team. I could not have made this happen without them. " - Matthew B.

★★★★★
"Ashley and her team were so capable and kind and wonderful to work with! I was most impressed with the speed they returned emails and texts. They provided easily digestible information and guided us through the process from start to finish. I highly recommend!!!" - Tiffani D.

★★★★★
"We are simply thrilled with our experience(s) with Ashley, which stretches back to when she helped us buy our house in Austin, through renting it out, and all the way through the sale of the house.
For us, these were all big and difficult decisions. We were inexperienced, first-time home-buyers and -sellers; we had young kids and hard jobs and were consistently stressed, and the money at stake was very significant for us. In light of all of those things, we feel incredibly grateful to have had Ashley on our side.
Ashley did a great job of both the personal and the business side of everything, keeping it low-stress for us while also being honest and transparent; she managed her team well throughout all the various inevitable ups and downs; her contacts with contractors and stagers and others proved invaluable as we did a pre-sale "spruce up." She and her team were responsive, professional, kind, and trustworthy." - Christopher B.

★★★★★
"Ashley made buying a house in Austin a breeze during this competitive time. Her knowledge of the market was invaluable and set us up for success right from the beginning of our search. As first-time home buyers, she made sure we asked the right questions and went above and beyond on all of the little things that really mattered during final negotiations. Ashley's team made our experience easy, and we've already begun recommending her to our friends." - Matt H.

★★★★★
"I truly enjoyed my experience with the Brinkman team. I quickly learned how important a Realtor's relationships are; Ashley and the team found me many options and tours, had great relationships within the market, and recommended an amazing, local lender for me to work with. From the start, Ashley held educational Zoom sessions and truly believed in educating and empowering everyone stepping into the market. She is dedicated to providing her clients with every resource possible, and I'm so appreciative of their dedication to me in this stressful market. They walked me through every step of the way, no matter how fast things had to be done, and they always responded to me within minutes of me reaching out. They gave me step-by-step, detailed "checklists" that were so helpful for navigating my first home-buying process. Ultimately, the Brinkman team is here to win! I couldn't be happier with them and my new place, and I'm looking forward to recommending Ashley and the team to my connections.
I am also so thankful for the recommendations and resources Ashley has passed along to me after closing. I am currently working with a contractor recommended by her, who has been amazing so far! I appreciate all the hard work that Compass does to give clients amazing experiences! " - Carly V.

★★★★★
"10/10 experience with the Brinkman Team! From the get-go, Ashley and Sydney have been nothing but professional and knowledgeable about the home buying process. Very importantly to us, they were very clear in all communication about what we needed to prepare for as potential homebuyers in this insane Austin market. There wasn't any ambiguity or waffling around, which was appreciated. Overall, we are so grateful to them for how smoothly the whole process went, from the new buyer presentation to closing. I would recommend Ashley and her team to anyone who is serious about buying or selling in this market because they truly know their stuff! I also loved Ashley's thoughtful notes and fun gifts, which were always fun to receive." - Claryssa M.

★★★★★
"Ashley, Sydney, and the team were amazing. Buying a first home is stressful enough, add to it the unreal real estate market we are currently experiencing, and we were STRESSED. But Sydney and Ashley walked us through the whole process and pretty much held our hand the entire way. From walking us through open houses to making the best offers to the whole closing process, there was no way we could have handled this situation without the Brinkman team's help. Their experience is invaluable!" - Alan F.

★★★★★
"We loved working with Ashley and the team! When we found the house we hoped to buy, Ashley worked hard to figure out what it would take to win it, and we did! In this crazy Austin market, that's not easy to go. We also found their vendor list super helpful as we set up some improvement projects for the house, certainly a full-service team that we'd highly recommend!" - Sarah S.

★★★★★
"Working with Ashley and the rest of the Brinkman team at Compass has been an absolute pleasure. Purchasing a home itself can be a stressful event and such a big decision, let alone in the current crazy market. Being able to trust Ashley and her entire team and the help and support I received from them throughout the whole process made for such a great experience. From the beginning of the process, Sydney and Ashley were amazing at helping me find places that met my criteria, and they gave me great feedback and input to help me set my expectations in this market. The knowledge that they're able to display around home buying and what to expect in the current market conditions is absolutely incredible. Then, through to my closing, the entire team was great about keeping me up to speed and answering any questions I had about documents and forms that needed to be submitted (and there are a lot!). The work that their team put in really did help make me feel so much more comfortable and confident the whole way through. I can't even imagine going through this process with anyone else!" - Curtis S.

★★★★★
"I can't speak highly enough of my experience with The Brinkman Team. Before meeting Wendy, I had met with a couple of other realtors, but I knew instantly that she was the one for me. Wendy was honest hands-on from day one. She walked every property while checking all the things I wouldn't have thought to check when touring a house. The entire Brinkman team Ashley, Wendy, and Tasha, really helped to take the pressure(s) off me even during a pandemic that I was sure would halt my buy/sell process.
I never felt forced to make an offer on a house I didn't really love, and when I finally found the "one," Wendy started going to work on an offer. Even though I was a backup offer, I felt at ease knowing these ladies were in my corner. I trusted Wendy so much that at one point, I just told her, "I trust yall, make it happen and just tell me where to sign." Ashley and the entire team walked me through every step of the process, making it an extremely seamless transaction. When I have friends looking for homes or thinking about selling, I will always recommend The Brinkman Team to them!" - Greg G.

★★★★★
"I cannot brag about Ashley enough. This is the 4th time that I've used Ashley's services, and she never fails to exceed expectations. In every step of the selling process, Ashley was readily available and able to answer all of my questions. Being a first-time seller, I felt almost unnaturally comfortable with the process. I'm sure Ashley can attest to this fact as I was frequently messaging her with questions like, "Am I forgetting something?" and "Did I do this correctly?". She assured me each time that things were going smoothly, and she was right! I am very happy with Ashley as a realtor and will definitely be using her again in the future." - Jordan C.

★★★★★
"We’re incredibly grateful to have worked with Ashley and her team on the purchase of our new build home. As first-time home buyers, we had a ton of questions along the way, yet she was always patient and extremely prompt with responses. In working with the builder, she advocated for us and made sure that we were always satisfied with the end result. In terms of design, I greatly appreciated her expertise on what design elements worked well with our style, as well as were most profitable for future selling. Additionally, Ashley and the team go above and beyond in providing helpful resources, even after the sale. We’re incredibly grateful for their guidance throughout this process. Thank you, Ashley and Brinkman team!" - Raquel P.

★★★★★
"Ashley and her team were incredible! We bought from out of town, so it took a really experienced realtor to help us win a home in a competitive market and make us confident in our home decision. What really stands out about Ashley is how responsive her team is at day and night. They were also so flexible in communicating via email or text (whatever works best!). It is super important to move fast in a competitive market, and they were able to get us in to “see” properties super fast while also providing videos of the homes so we could go back and review the homes: all and all a great experience. I would recommend her and her team, hands down." - Diana M.

★★★★★
"Ashley was simply amazing to work with. At every step of the process, she exceeded my expectations. And I had very high expectations. She and I had quite a bit of time together because I was both selling and buying. She was available and insightful, which was huge, as I had a few challenges to overcome. Ashley brought so much value to the table at every step. Her entire team was also top-shelf. From staging to paperwork, everyone was just awesome and made the process feel very smooth. I am so grateful and so happy to have worked with Ashley and the crew. I highly, highly recommend them." - Kirk P.

★★★★★
"The Brinkman Team was a pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell a home in the Austin area. They get the job done and done right!" - Josie W.

"Working with Ashley and Team Brinkman was fantastic. They made the process really transparent and had great systems in place to help keep things on track. I appreciated the instructive emails and the quick responses to questions. They also were very knowledgeable about the Austin market and helped me make the winning offer in a very competitive market. I felt very supported during the entire process and felt that they were just as invested in my purchase as if it was their own. Thanks, Team; I couldn’t have done it without you!" - Allie O.

★★★★★
"Ashley and Sydney (and Mary) literally bent over backward to meet us at short notice to help us view a house. Living 4 hours away was quite the challenge, but they always figured out a way to fit us in their schedule. They told me to keep in mind there is no such thing as the perfect house, but we disagree. They helped us find our perfect FIRST home, and we couldn't be happier, from the actual house to the incredible neighbors and accessibility to shopping and attractions. And even the final touches they made to our move-in experience was beyond our expectations. We have had so many friends and family who had bad or just mediocre experiences with their Realtors, so we were prepared for a similar experience and were blown away by the incredible experience we had from start to finish! Thank you! I'll be insisting that any friends or family who ask go directly to the Brinkman team for all their real estate needs!" - London B.

★★★★★
"Ashley has helped us sell two homes and buy one in a very fast-paced realty market. She is extremely knowledgeable about the market and how to get what you want. She helped us through the whole process, which can be so overwhelming, but she knew what to expect and who to send us to for everything along the way. Closing was easy, and she even hired cleaners to come after we moved out. Very professional and friendly!!" - Stephanie C.

★★★★★
"I couldn't speak more highly of my home buying experience with Ashley and the Brinkman Team. Ashley was extremely helpful in providing me with honest feedback and guidance throughout the whole process (which clearly I needed a lot of as a first time home buyer). She took the time to make sure I understood the process and was always available to answer any questions. The Brinkman Team truly made my first time home buying experience a great one, and I couldn't have asked to work with a better team. I will definitely be referring Ashley and the Brinkman Team to all my friends and family." - Britni W.

★★★★★
"When buying and/or selling, my best decision was choosing The Brinkman Team. The team is in complete control from start to finish and take care of all issues, large and small. They are also honest and ethical and encourage revealing the property's slightest imperfections to avoid problems with the sale. When selling my house, the toughest decision was choosing which one of the many offers over the asking price to accept. Marketed on Thursday, open house on Saturday, signed contract by Tuesday! Definitely recommend The Brinkman Team!" - Paula S.

★★★★★
"Ashley has worked hard to get where she is. She is available with answers to all my questions, maybe too available! She listens to you and really wants you to be happy. She does what you would like and uses her expert option and experience to guide what she also thinks is best. She stuck up for me when selling my home, and the buyer was trying to take advantage of that, which I appreciate. I have now had three home sales with Ashley this far! Ashely works hard and has worked hard to get to where she is at! Thanks! " - Kelly D.

★★★★★
"Ashley is an experienced professional that gets results. In our case, we received an offer prior to listing. The lending process took an extra few weeks, so closing was delayed, but Ashley kept us on target, and we closed successfully. Her guidance was critical to staying the course when we might have missed this opportunity. Thanks, Ashley! " - Kurt W.

★★★★★
"Ashley, Sydney, and the team were very attentive to our requests. They were a pleasure to work with, and I would recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell." - Trey D.

★★★★★
"Ashley and her team have helped us through some of the best real estate transactions we have ever seen. Ashley is communicative, smart, responsive, and thinks outside of the box when issues arise. We've bought 4 homes, sold one, and refinanced another through Ashley, and then we moved to Houston, where we had to deal with two other agents. Let me tell you, and it was a stark difference.
It was a wide-eyed kind of moment where you realize Ashley and her team make the transactions easy. They take the stress and uncertainty and offer reassurance. She's never overwhelming or overcommitted to us and has always set our expectations if we were thinking pie in the sky. Ashley has a way to make you feel like you are her best friend but always maintains a professional relationship and really goes above and beyond to secure a close.
Not only is Ashley amazing, but Tasha and her team, who really pick up the heavy lifting of paperwork, next steps, calendars, appraisers, and all the chaos that happens to buy and sell a home, has really been on top of everything. Ashley has put an incredible team together, and we are grateful for her and her entire team. If Compass could replicate Ashley and clone her, I know they would be 10x as successful." - Courtney G.

★★★★★
"I have known Ashley personally for 3-4 years and professionally now over the last 12 months, purchasing two investment properties over that time. Ashley is incredible, knowledgeable, communicative, and thoughtful. I have recommended 3-4 other buyers to her over the last 12-24 months because she has done such a good job. If all Compass' employees are as good as Ashely, Compass is going to thrive, and that is a credit to them, being able to locate and keep great employees." - Conor D.

★★★★★
"I honestly couldn't be happier! Knowing a ton of Realtors and this being my first time to sell, I was blown away with how everything was handled. Everything was taken care of. It was such a breeze, and honestly don't think my Condo would have sold this fast with anyone else." - Amanda S.

★★★★★
"We love working with Ashley! We have worked with Ashley three times now, and each time has been wonderful! She is extremely helpful and a pleasure to work with. There are so many perks to working with Ashley and her team, but a few of our favorites include complimentary staging, several marketing avenues, and prompt and knowledgeable service. We sold our most recent home quickly, for well over the asking price!" - Micki R.

★★★★★
"Wendy, Ashley, and the whole Brinkman Team were exceptional through the entire process of buying our new home. Things moved quickly once we found the perfect home for us, and Wendy, Ashley and Tasha were always on the ball and ready to answer whatever questions or concerns we had. Honest and responsive realtors aren't always easy to find, but you can tell they love what they do. The team is like a well-oiled machine. We'll always recommend Team Brinkman and Compass.!" - Mark + Britt

★★★★★
"I had an absolutely fantastic experience working with Ashley and her team, and I am so thankful she was my Realtor. During our first one-on-one session, Ashley provided me with loads of good information in a way that made it clear and easy to understand without feeling overwhelming. She encouraged me to draft a 'love letter' for houses I was interested in to make my offer stand out from the crowd and even shared drafts of other buyers' letters to give me ideas. The love letter I wrote for my new house played a key role in getting my offer accepted, and for that, I am so grateful.
Along my entire house-hunting journey, I felt supported and informed by Ashley and her team, and I knew they always had my best interests in mind. As a first-time homebuyer, I was expecting the process to be a bit harrowing, but having the Brinkman team on my side made it feel empowering rather than intimidating. Even now, I know that if I need advice on finding the right tradesman for a job or really anything home-related, I can always reach out to Ashley and her team (or I can check out her trend alert Tuesday Instagram posts for design ideas!). I would recommend Ashely wholeheartedly and without hesitation to friends or family in need of a Realtor." - Katelyn H.

★★★★★
"We have used Ashely a few times now, and each time we have gotten results better than expected. This last home sale, in particular, was a difficult one sentimentally, and Ashley was the perfect mix of professional, personal, and prompt. I would definitely recommend her to friends and family and will be contacting her again when I'm ready for the next big move." - Kevin B.

★★★★★
"I am very pleased with the exemplary, personalized service provided by Ashley and the Brinkman team. Such service definitely exceeded my expectations. No doubt, I definitely feel comfortable and have in-fact referred Ashley and the Brinkman team to my friends and family and will continue to do so. Looking forward to Ashley marketing my property in the next few weeks as I believe her personality as the seller’s agent will maximize the sales price. If you offered stars, Ashley and the Brinkman team’s rating would be five stars." - Paula S.

★★★★★
"My first time buying a house was made so easy with Team Brinkman! They go above and beyond and ensure you know everything that's going on with the process. All the ladies on this team are on top of their game! They're knowledgeable, experienced, are just hard workers for their clients. I would highly recommend Compass- Team Brinkman for anyone looking to purchase a house in the Austin area! 10 stars out of 5!" - Anonymous

★★★★★
"Ashley was amazing at helping me sell my house! Not only did she recommend me fixing up what was necessary, but she also gave me a game plan and a timeline to keep me on track. I know she was very busy with other clients, but she definitely made me feel like I was her only one and top priority. Her team was amazing, pointing out everything to fix up just right, and on a budget!" - John D.

"Ashley and her team are spot on! They are really on the ball and made the process easy for me. I have nothing but good things to say about how Ashely and her team helped me buy my house." - Jeremy B.

★★★★★
"Ashley and her team were really a joy to work with. I had very tight deadlines in which I needed to sell my home by a certain day to move into my new place on time and succeed! There were times that I was getting impatient as COVID-19 made it a little more difficult selling my home, but in the end, Ashley got me two offers at the full asking price. She was so professional and always kept her cool when I was getting a little stressed and impatient. Her attention to detail and making me feel like she really cared about getting my home sold in time to hit my strict deadlines are what I will remember the most. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to one of my dearest friends or family members in the future and will more than likely use her representation again in the future!" - Joshua F.

"My first time buying a house was made so easy with Team Brinkman! They go above and beyond and ensure you know everything that's going on with the process. All the ladies on this team are on the top of their game! They're knowledgeable, experienced, are just hard workers for their clients. I would highly recommend Compass and Team Brinkman for anyone looking to purchase a house in the Austin area! 10 stars out of 5!" - Jeremy B.

★★★★★
"It was great working with the Brinkman team! Right from the beginning, when Ashley held the Buyers Presentation, I knew this team was going to be awesome. Wendy met with me at the home every time and also answered all my million questions via text, which is great cause I am a millennial, and email feels so slow. Tasha was super responsive to setting up meetings and had meetings on my calendar before I even checked my email! Overall, great team and would recommend 1 million times over." - David D.

★★★★★
"I had an amazing experience working with Ashley and her team. She made the selling process clear and seamless.
She walked me through each step and was quick to respond to any questions or concerns I had. She also mediated with the buyer's Realtor on my behalf when there was confusion after the home inspection. It was great and completely eased my stress levels!
I truly believe my house sold quickly and for the price, we got based on the efforts of Ashley and her team. I also loved all the personal attention to me specifically. It made me feel like I was her sole focus, and the sale of my home was her only goal.
I would be happy to work with Ashley and any member of her team in the future." - Kirsten W.

★★★★★
"Ashley, Wendy, Jennifer, and Tasha have been so helpful, walking us through buying our first home. They've answered all of our questions no matter how naive, given us great advice, and all of their recommendations for inspectors, lenders, etc. have been equally wonderful. We're looking forward to working with them again in the future!" - Kara

★★★★★
"Three of my friends worked with Ashley on home purchases and other real estate matters, and each of them was massively impressed with her stellar skills and expertise, just full of glowing recommendations about her and her team. After completing my own real estate journey under Ashley’s guidance, I have joined the Team Brinkman fan club! I was a first-time home buyer, chock-full of jangled nerves, endless questions, and general newbie cluelessness. I was also midway into my housing hunt when the global pandemic threw a giant monkey wrench into the local real estate market (not to mention life) as we knew it. Despite all of these challenges, Ashley sailed me right through the fog and craziness of an uncertain time to help land me the sweetest little homestead in town. It was as if she was trained as a black belt not only in real estate but also in wizardry, communication, and ninja skills. Amazing. Truly phenomenal. And her team of supporting colleagues is similarly excellent - Wendy, Tasha, Jennifer, I could always rely on their speedy, knowledgeable assistance. From start to finish, I felt comfortable and confident in Ashley and Team Brinkman, and am so grateful to her and her team for being so all-around fantastic. I will definitely use Ashley again for my future real estate needs, and cannot recommend her highly enough. Are you a human looking to buy or sell a house in the Austin Area? Get in touch with Ashley Brinkman. Real estate black-belt/wizard/ninja. Seriously. You will not be disappointed!" - D. Pease

★★★★★
"Ashley and her team were great throughout the process. Ashley did great taking feedback and direction as well as pressing her own thoughts and opinions when necessary, a rare trait for a person to balance both well. Jennifer also did a great job keeping dates and deliverables top of mind. Overall, I was very happy." - Tyler B.

★★★★★
"I can't speak highly enough of my experience with The Brinkman Team. Before meeting Wendy, I had met with a couple of other realtors, but I knew instantly that she was the one for me. Wendy was honest hands-on from day one. She walked every property while checking all the things I wouldn't have thought to check when touring a house. The entire Brinkman team Ashley, Wendy, and Tasha, really helped to take the pressure(s) off me even during a pandemic that I was sure would halt my buy/sell process. I never felt forced to make an offer on a house I didn't really love, and when I finally found the “one,” Wendy started going to work on an offer. Even though I was a backup offer, I felt at ease knowing these ladies were in my corner. I trusted Wendy so much that at one point, I just told her, “I trust yall, make it happen and just tell me where to sign.” Ashley and the entire team walked me through every step of the process, making it an extremely seamless transaction. When I have friends looking for homes or thinking about selling, I will always recommend The Brinkman Team to them!" - Gregory C.

★★★★★
"My experience working with Ashley was great! I'm a first time home buyer, and I cannot express how much I appreciated the initial meeting with Ashley at the Compass office. She was able to walk through the process and expectations of home buying. As a person who likes to have all of the information given to me before jumping in, I greatly appreciated her preparedness and attitude towards everything. Additionally, she and her team were always very responsive to my million questions. I bought a house during a pandemic, and honestly, Ashley couldn't have calmed my nerves any better. All in all, I couldn't have asked for a better Realtor and would definitely recommend her to anyone. Should I want to sell or buy in the future, I will definitely be using Ashley again." - Kelsey B.

★★★★★
"I could not have been more pleased with Ashley and her team. They were very professional and handled everything for me. I was impressed with how much they really just took the reins and helped me. My house sold in just a weekend for over asking price. I would definitely use her again!" - Ryan M.

★★★★★
"My husband and I REALLY enjoyed working with Ashley Brinkman and her team from Compass. She is very responsive, timely, hands-on, and professional. She was always on the ball, so we did not have to worry that something would fall through the cracks of the stressful home buying process. She is also a very genuine and down-to-earth person, which made it easy to work with her. Ashley really helped to ease our concerns, got us the information we needed quickly, and even responded to late-night texts and emails. She really knows her stuff when it comes to real estate and the housing market, and she was able to explain it in a way that made sense to us as first-time home buyers. Ashley even strongly suggested writing a letter to the sellers to accompany our offer, which is ultimately what won us the bid. She even went to bat for us with the mortgage company when interest rates were spiking, and they were able to lower it to a very reasonable amount. We are grateful for all of the help, support, and comfort that we had working with Ashley and for the fact that she has committed to keeping in touch and making sure we are aware of post-moving 'things to know that we would otherwise have no idea about. We highly recommend working with Ashley and the Compass team!" - Katrina L.

★★★★★
"Ashley is a true gem. She takes the time to get to know her clients and their family. She knows my kids by name and takes the time to ask about them (that’s so important to me) shows her loving heart. Ashley goes above and beyond for her clients. Putting our house on the market with a one-month-old was super stressful, but Ashley made it such an easy process and got our house sold in a weekend with multiple offers. We love Ashley and have and will continue to recommend her to anyone looking for a house. She’s the best!" - Sarah W.

★★★★★
"I can not say enough good things about Ashley. She has always been very professional with us each and every time. Her customer service is next to none. She always finds time to answer any questions and responds in a very timely manner. She is always open and honest and will do everything possible to keep her clients happy. What I like most is that she makes it a point to keep up with us as clients, so that makes me feel as if she truly cares about her clientele and not just how much money she can make. She truly has a serving heart, and each convo with her, I am left feeling confident and more knowledgeable. It has been a pleasure working with her, and I will most definitely refer her to as many people as possible and also rely on her in the future for guidance. She is overall, not only a great Realtor but a great person." - Brad W.

★★★★★
"Ashley did a great job selling our home and helping us find our new home. As you know, the buying process in Austin can be a roller-coaster ride. Ashley was a great guide and positive attitude to get you to the end. We love our neighborhood and our home. You will find the home that is right for you with Ashley." - Jennifer G.

★★★★★
"As first-time home buyers, we could not have asked for a better experience. Ashley was extremely organized, professional, and kind. She walked us through the entire process, and I never felt pressured or rushed. She also was a great resource for recommendations, suggesting people to do the inspection, to talk to for the mortgage, and to just give advice. When our offer was accepted, she was able to negotiate the price down even further, and we bought the house for less than the asking price (crazy in this highly competitive market!) In the past two years since we have bought the house, Ashley has been great about reaching out, giving suggestions for our remodels, and reminding us to negotiate our taxes. I feel so grateful that I found Ashley and couldn't recommend her enough." - Brianne W.

★★★★★
"It was a pleasure working with Ashley. She did a great job of educating this first-time buyer and was always available for questions.She really held my hand through the whole process and made it very easy. I hope to work with her again in the future" - Zach H.

★★★★★
"Ashley was recommended to me by a co-worker. I contacted Ashley, and she scheduled an appointment to discuss selling my house. She even brought an interior decorator with her, at her expense, to go over how to best stage the house so it would sell fast. Once we had the house staged, she brought a professional photographer in to take pictures, again at her expense. The pictures came out spectacular, and I was speechless at how well they looked. Once the house was listed, we received multiple offers within 3 days. The communication between Ashley and her team was outstanding. I highly recommend Ashley and her team." - Cari C.

★★★★★
"Ashley and Wendy were so awesome to work with in finding our home. Ashley was flexible with our busy schedules in touring, knew all inspections we needed to get based on how old our home was (hooked us up with specific inspectors), and was honestly so fun to be around throughout the process. She also doesn't stop working for you once you close. We closed on our house in January 2019, and she still sends us reminders and responds to all my texts about potential renovations and recommends vendors with advice. Highly recommend Ashley and her team!" - Kelsey E.

★★★★★
"Super easy-going and knowledgeable. Tells you how it is. Helped us find a great home. No pressure. She just wants to build long-term business relationships more than anything." - Alex G.

★★★★★
"It is hard to put into words that truly explain how special of an experience it was working with Wendy Crone and Ashley Brinkman. I felt taken care of, I was empowered with knowledge and informed the whole way through, and I never felt like a burden; Wendy and I went to so many different properties together, on any day of the week, any time of day. I asked countless questions, in person, through text, in email, and always received prompt and thoughtful responses no matter how late at night or early in the morning.
I am so grateful to have gone through this process with them. Anyone would be beyond lucky to have the opportunity to have them as their Realtor. Wendy went above and beyond with me, she was supportive and always watched out for my best interests. She was real with me. I have been telling everyone who mentions anything along the lines of considering buying property to reach out to Wendy and Ashley.
I hear stories of other people’s Realtors, and they are nothing like this team. This team is far and away above and beyond. There are good people in the world, and the universe takes care of you when you need it, and does so in the form of Wendy and Ashley. That might sound very intense, but I mean it." - Emily K.

★★★★★
" Initially, we were concerned about Ashley because she's young (not really, but we are 47 and 57, so that can make anyone under 40 look like a pup). HOWEVER, she impressed us in our initial meeting/interview. She came prepared, was very knowledgeable and professional, and gave us the impression that she was full of energy and would take no prisoners when selling our house. She came through on all of it. We had a compressed timeline, and she didn't miss a beat. She sold our house faster than we expected, and for a price that was higher than expected. She was fantastic, and I'd strongly recommend her to anyone that asks. Compass has an amazing woman in Ashley, don't let her go! " - Carissa S.

★★★★★
"Ashley Brinkman and her team are incredible! Ashley is detailed, responsive, and her overall personality made the process smooth. It was our first time selling a home, and Ashley guided us through the process. She was very clear in her communication, and we appreciated being a part of the decisions at every step. Early on in the process, she gave us the tools and information we needed to prepare our home for the market. Our home was on the market for four days! From that point on, it was a worry-free process. A few months prior to finding Ashley, we almost made the mistake of signing a contract with an IBuyer company because we needed to sell our home fast. With Ashley and her team, we were able to sell for almost 30k more than what the IBuyer company was offering. It was because of her strategy, preparation, attention to detail, and knowledge that we did so well!" - Maricela S.

★★★★★
"It was a delight working with Ashley Brinkman on the sale of my home! She brought tons of market insights, recommendations, and listing strategies to the table and was the perfect balance of flexible and prescriptive throughout the process. I was traveling early in the listing process, and her team even helped out with logistics and contractors. I can’t recommend Ashley and her team highly enough! #brinkmanismyhomegirl" - Sara W.

★★★★★
"Flawless experience with Ashley and her assistant. We got the house of our dreams in our new state, Texas. I definitely would recommend to anyone. We are moving from California, and she made the process as easy as possible!" - Jessica B.

★★★★★
"Ashley's knack for real estate is only surpassed by her enthusiastic approach. She pairs experience with patience (a virtue required in the ATX market) as she guides you through the process. Her willingness to share every ounce of knowledge she possesses increases your ability to make the best decisions when purchasing your home. Her field of loyal clients and followers serves as a testament to her services. I've used Ashley to purchase a home recently and highly recommend enlisting her as your confidant for your next purchase too!" - Linsday W.

★★★★★
"My wife and I are extremely pleased with Ashley, Wendy, and their team. They were always responsive to our many phone calls and emails. They were happy to answer all the questions that we had as first time home buyers. The intensity of the real estate market in the greater Austin area had us a bit discouraged at times. However, no matter how desperate we felt, Ashley encouraged us to not rush into any decision. We are so glad that we took her advice. We could not be happier with the home that we purchased.
Overall, the whole process was very smooth. Here are a few highlights:
- Ashley sent thoughtful and encouraging letters during the home search
- We received many gift cards
- When we wanted to see a home but Ashley and her direct team were unavailable, another Realtor was able to fill in (thanks Paco!)
- We were invited to outings with Ashley and her other clients
- We received many recommendations for home buying services
- On the closing day, she gave us a bottle of Rosé and a custom metalwork decal
- She invited us to her birthday party!" - John M.

★★★★★
"Ashley is the best choice when buying a home. Her experience and knowledge were imperative during the home buying process. She takes time to understand her client's needs and immediately responds to questions and concerns. She is patient during the process and extremely trustworthy. Not to mention she is an incredibly kind and thoughtful person. I highly recommend." - Melanie P.

★★★★★
"Ashley got me through the stressful and often frustrating process of viewing homes, getting financing, and then closing the deal over several months. I'm a tough customer. I'm extremely picky. I was also frustrated at how expensive the housing market had become for buyers, having lived in Austin for over 30 years. But she stuck with me. She would listen to me complain about this and then keep on searching with me. Even after I bought my house, she continued to give advice on a number of things that any first-time buyer needs to know, like claiming homestead exemptions. All that to say, if you are considering buying, Ashley will work hard for you, and she seems genuinely concerned that her clients get what they want. She got me through a challenging and intimidating process, and I thank her for that." - Thomas T.

★★★★★
"Ashley did a wonderful job of helping me find my first house. She guided me through the process flawlessly. If you are worried about feeling pressured at any time to make a decision, go with Ashley because she gives her opinions and makes you feel at ease, without any pressure to buy! Highly recommend." - Niki L.

★★★★★
"Where to begin? It's taken me a while to compose a review because I can't adequately express how wonderful Ashley and her team are. First of all, what DON'T they know about buying and selling? If you're looking for a well-rounded powerhouse of talent and knowledge, look no further. Ashley is organized, responsive, and driven to succeed/win. She was more than equipped to handle my anxiety/energy/concerns during both the buying and selling process. Do you want to go fast? She'll put the pedal to the metal. Want to take the extended route? That's okay too! Regardless of your experience, she'll supply all the necessary tools to get you where you need to be. We bought (and sold) with Brinkman and wouldn't have it any other way!" - Kayanne A.

★★★★★
"Ashley is hilarious, fun, and honest, which made our buying experience way more enjoyable than buying a house should be... but most importantly, she is incredibly knowledgeable about the market in Austin and surrounding cities. Ashley made the purchase of our first investment house one that we felt comfortable and confident in - before, during, and after the sale. She was responsive and resourceful and has a great team who also model these qualities. We will 100% be using Ashley for our future real estate purchases. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!" - Chantelle G.

★★★★★
"My husband and I were thrilled to work with Ashley and her team. They were all complete professionals and very knowledgeable about everything we asked about. To say she’s a rock star is an understatement. If you are looking for someone to represent you as a buyer or seller, this is your team. I only wish I would have found her 1 week earlier to buy my house also and not just sell mine. If you're in the market to relocate, you must call her and allow her to show you her team's skills. 5 stars aren’t enough for them. Do your research, and you will see I am telling you the complete truth. Effortless for us, more money than we asked for, the staging of the house, also the most amazing professional photos were taken. Give her a call!" - Cari C.

★★★★★
"I have been working with Ashley for almost 5 years now. I greatly appreciate her ability to remember the details important to me, even as her practice has grown over the years. She's always been able to work around my schedule and uses her vast network to identify off-market opportunities that align to what I have been looking for." - J.D. H.

This was our first time buying so it's safe to say we were a little nervous, but she was so helpful with everything and made us feel confident and happy with all the decisions to be made.

I would highly recommend her if you are looking to buy in the Austin area!" - Kelly N.

★★★★★
"My experience was flawless. Ashley moved with a sense of urgency which we had discussed that I valued that and she matched my intensity in getting the house sold quickly. She also was able to create a three-way win where I got the asking price for my house, the buyers go the property they wanted and fast, and my renters that were in there who were struggling with the concept of having to move got to stay. It was perfect. Ashley let me know what to expect every step of the way and I was as informed as I wanted to be throughout the process. It was a great experience and I will recommend her to anyone." - Charlie L.

"Brinkman is our homegirl, again! Ashley was our Realtor with buying our first home about five years ago. Now, we sold our first home and purchased our second with her a few months ago and couldn't be happier, again! She is just AWESOME! We had been looking for a long time but knew that this next house would be ours for many years to come, so we wanted to be picky and take our time in choosing. She was patient with us and supported us 100%. She knows her stuff, y'all. Throughout the whole process, Ashley had the best ways to go about everything that came up. We were in a situation to submit best and final offer at a certain point. This situation was very new to us and got us nervous, but she knew exactly what to do for us to be picked. She is thorough, dedicated, smart, and just a fun person to be around that makes the whole house buying/selling process a breeze. Ashley is so very nice to show appreciation for her clients, but I hope she knows how much we appreciate our Realtor and friend!" - Jessica + Chase S.

"Ashley is simply amazing. As a first time home buyer, the entire home buying process was foreign to me. Ashley took the time to go through everything in as much detail as I needed. I know she is constantly working with multiple clients, but her attention to detail, quick responsiveness, and constant availability always made me feel like I was her focus. Not only is she exceptional at her job, but she is also fun to be around. Her bright personality made working together and walk-throughs an enjoyable experience. She helped make the entire home buying process for me a breeze, and I will undoubtedly turn to Ashley and her team for my future home buying needs." - Curtis S.

★★★★★
"We closed on our properties almost 7 months ago and I am still as eager as I was at closing, to share my thoughts about working with Ashley through these experiences.

★★★★★
"Ashley was a pleasure to work with during our first-time home buying experience. Always responsive, she has an apparent dedication to excellence along with plenty of passion for her work, and her wealth of knowledge about the Austin market and nuances of the buying process was invaluable. Ashley is a friendly, genuine, and straightforward person who also has plenty of patience for people like myself who like to be thorough and fully informed. While we were looking at the "entry-level" home market, she made us feel just as important as a high-end buyer, and she clearly has a solid clientele list (for a good reason!). Her preparedness was instrumental in our closing, which went as planned and without surprises. After the sale, Ashley made it a point to check in and remain in touch as a resource for our questions. She provided several options for recommended contractors and agents to ease the transition into the new home, sent out tips and reminders throughout the year (such as tax time items), and even sent us delicious holiday treats. As long as we remain in the Austin market, Ashley will be our Realtor without question." - Barrett C.

★★★★★
"You are IN LUCK if you have Ashley Brinkman as your real estate agent! This girl gets things done! I remember meeting her for my first day of house hunting; she had printed out the listings of each property we were visiting and had planned what order we would see them in. By the last listing, I was disappointed that the houses I had been excited to see, were not what I expected in person. By casual conversation with another Realtor, we were directed down the street to an open house that I had not seen yet. Ashley was polite and professional as we entered my (now) future home! I can't explain how personable Ashley is, and how easy to talk to. She understands the concerns and common questions of her buyers, as she has been through the same process herself. Ashley was honest about the pros and cons of the deal, what needed work, potential downsides, etc., and gave her honest opinion in every situation. She has your best interest in mind and wants to find you the perfect home! And now that I've closed, I feel like part of the Ashley Buyers Club, with rewards like her client appreciation parties, email reminders about tax benefits, and recommendations on local house cleaners, pest control, and locksmiths! Thanks for your continuing hard work Ashley!" - Barbara B.

"I have only positive things to say about Ashley. She was on the ball with everything, especially when things got messy with the customer. Having bought two homes using two different agents, we now know how a good agent operates. If we ever purchase another home, we will definitely use Ashley again." - Jordan H.

★★★★★
"Ashley is an amazing Realtor and a delightful person. We had the pleasure of having her work for us. Ashley did an incredible job representing both Katie and I; both in giving us information and in going to bat for us when it really counted. We cannot recommend Ashley enough. We will surely give as many referrals as we can." - Jake M.

★★★★★
"Ashley made my first home buying experience a breeze! She made time in her hectic schedule to show us around and always replied promptly to all my newbie home-owner questions before and after the closing. I couldn't have asked for more from her and her team!" - Michael A.

★★★★★
"First-time homebuyer + relocation from out-of-state = potential to be an absolutely terrifying process. Luckily, I had Ashley as my Realtor. She made buying a home easier than my last car purchase! Her deep knowledge of Austin was incredibly helpful to someone coming in without any (meaningful/relevant) experience of the city. And her guidance throughout the offer process was so amazing that by the time we got to closing, that panicky \oh my gosh why am I doing this?\" feeling was completely gone. With her help, we were in the, \"yeah, let's do this!\" mindset (even after the daunting task of signing literally thousands of pages of legalese). And beyond the fact that she is really spectacular at her job, her dedication to her clients goes beyond just making the sale. I was (sad and) alone, in a hotel room, on my birthday, in a new city, for a whole five minutes before a delightful box of cookies arrived from Ashley. I mentioned I really liked the flooring in part of the house we wanted, and a day later we had the exact flooring type and purchase location that Ashley had tracked down from the seller. We wanted to get some work done on the house and - you guessed it - we had a list of recommendations for contractors, roofers, painters, etc. from Ashley all ready to go. And I can name even more of those \"above and beyond\" type moments, but I think you get the picture. She's amazing." - Tori D.

★★★★★
"Ashley is amazing! While we had done a lot of research before moving here, she was the one that suggested the neighborhood we settled on, and her help throughout the process, in general, was priceless. She even covered small post-purchase details like contractor and pest control referrals, which we desperately needed since we were relocating from out of state and had no prior knowledge of local buyers would. My parents are planning to move to Austin in the next year, and I will definitely be referring them to her!" - Tori D.

★★★★★
"Ashley was very helpful and quick to get back with us on all items sent to her. I'm actually an on-site Sales Consultant with a builder and I already refer business to her. I will continue to send her folks." - Jenni B.

★★★★★
"Ashley was excellent to work with. She made the home buying experience much better. I will recommend Ashley to anyone I know." - Weston B.

★★★★★
"Ashley Brinkman has seriously got to be the best, most hard-working Realtor in Austin, possibly the WORLD! Our home-buying process got a little bumpy at times (due to issues out of Ashley's hands) but we always felt confident that things would work out because we had her on our side. I truly can't express how impressed we were with Ashley throughout this entire process. She was there to answer all of our questions and we believe that she is the main reason we were able to purchase our home; it wasn't even listed on the MLS when she went after it! If you're looking for a Realtor in the Austin area, go with Ashley! I can assure you that you won't regret it. She's the BEST!!" - Stella M.

★★★★★
"Ashley is an absolutely dedicated agent. We have had two real estate transactions through Ashley; selling our house last year and our condo recently. Ashley provided excellent advice while selling our home and arranged for handy-men to assist with minor repairs to ensure that we had the house ready to sell. Ashley handled the sale of our rental condo this summer, and she managed everything in Austin (including rental furniture for showing) while Valerie and I were in Colorado. All of the details were well managed during the showings and throughout the sale. The condo was successfully sold, and the entire experience was painless thanks to Ashley's undying work ethic and attention to detail. We couldn't be happier with Ashley's performance and would not hesitate to call upon her again if we decide to return to Austin. I highly recommend Ashley Brinkman to anyone searching for a dedicated, reliable real estate agent in Austin. She is an awesome human being as well." - Christopher + Valerie M.

★★★★★
"Ashley did a great job, especially since the entire process took place with us being in St. Louis at a great distance. The closing went off just as planned, and we're looking forward to actually moving into the property." - Mark R.

★★★★★
"As first-time homebuyers, my husband and I were clueless about the process of buying a house and weren't sure where we should begin. We were also slightly terrified. We contacted Ashley informally, and she quickly set us up with an ease-into meeting to lay out what the process looked like, what to expect, and what to begin doing on our end. There was no obligation up front; she simply explained things, so we had a sense of if we were a good fit. Ashley is incredibly smart, honest, organized, efficient, and one of the most dedicated and hardworking people I've ever met. She is a genuine, straight-shooter and no-nonsense kind of gal while also being a wonderful people-person, which is exactly what you want and need in this kind of situation. We knew without a doubt that she would go to bat for us, and she certainly did. In fact, she went way above and beyond! Ashley essentially held our hand all the way through, calmed all of our fears, and put us at ease through every hiccup, always reassuring us and happily being available for all of our big and small questions. Ashley knows the market incredibly well, she's super informed and connected and has an amazing network of people that she can recommend helping you save tons of time and stress in the process. We trusted her implicitly, and it truly paid off. When we found our dream house, we were the first buyers to see it, and we were able to view it before it was even listed on the market. Ashley went straight into beast mode. She didn't waste a single minute. That same day we put in an offer, and she advised us on what kind of offer to make and with what, if any, requests. With her guidance and networking skills, we beat out multiple other contenders even though we didn't have the best offer (which is still hard for me to believe). We 100% know we got our house because we had Ashley in our corner. And don't worry, once you've won the offer, Ashley is still by your side all the way through the end and beyond. She has an amazing ability to make you feel like you're her only client, even though she's a very busy bee. She went to our inspection, our closing, and checked in with us on moving day and after. She's a WINNER, and you'd be a fool to not take this recommendation to heart and contact her right away! We cannot recommend her enough. Ashley is incredible, and we'll recommend her to everyone we know." - Alicia R.

★★★★★
"I have to say working with Ashley was a great experience. Not only is she knowledgeable about what she does but she is also honest. At one point in our house hunting adventure, I asked to see a home that just showed up on the website. Ashley reached out to my husband Moe and I and explained what would happen if we went to see the house and wanted to put in an offer. She was concerned since the process can move quickly and it would require our full attention. See the thing was were getting married that week. Looking back on the situation now I see that she was absolutely right! And considering the amount of stress we were under the week of our wedding, I cannot imagine how we would have handled purchasing a home during the same period. Ashley was always quick to respond and willing to text, call, email us around the clock. She also assisted us with all aspects of the house hunting, from helping us figure out what our true non-negotiables are to deciding what part of Austin would be best for us, to what is considered to be a good mortgage rate. Our house hunting adventure would not have been successful without her." - Elizabeth S.

★★★★★
"I really enjoyed working with Ashley. She definitely exceeded my expectations. She's really nice and helpful and readily available for any questions I had. The whole process wasn't as overwhelming as I was anticipating, probably because she was so good at taking care of everything for me and making sure I understood everything. I'm very happy with the house that I bought, and I'm very grateful for everything she did to help me get it. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone I know looking for a place in Austin." - Rachel K.

★★★★★
"Ashley was a pleasure to work with and really worked to help us find the perfect first home. She brought a real sense of energy, a can-do attitude and a real personal touch to our search, even when times got tough and we lost on a few homes. Ashley was super supportive of our search and worked to help us find homes that matched our aesthetic and was always sure to dig into any questions or concerns we had. She was knowledgeable about the neighborhoods and the Austin market and was always upfront and honest with us, which is something we both really appreciated as first-time buyers. She also always made sure we felt taken care of, even if she had a conflict, she always arranged to have someone from her team or a fellow agent available to help! Ashley made it a great experience for us, even in this hectic Austin market. She was also great at acting as a guide for us throughout the process. I am a fairly detail oriented person, and Ashley and her team were always sure to answer my myriad of questions with clear and helpful responses and offer great advice on the things that I really needed to know. Her support gave me the confidence I needed to make the right decisions and navigate the complicated home buying process." - Jeff S.

★★★★★
"We are truly blessed to have had Ashley help us. Ashely exceeded our expectations in so many ways! Day and night from Monday to Sunday, Ashley would always respond to our questions quickly! She has the most positive attitude with her professional service styles to make her customers very happy! We are truly grateful to have had Ashley as our Realtor!" - Ning + Ben X.

★★★★★
"I highly recommend Ashley Brinkman. She represented me during my recent home purchase. She is personable, responsive, and very knowledgeable. As a first time homebuyer, it was great to have her guide me through the process and answer all of my questions. She definitely made it an easy and enjoyable process." - Sierra R.

★★★★★
"Ashley Brinkman was great to work with. She knows her business inside and out and was always very personable and fun to work with. She replies to all emails within minutes and would drop everything to meet with us to show us a house right away. We were a little worried about our short closing time for our sale. Ashley generated 6 offers in less than a week and we sold for over asking. I would highly recommend Ashley for anyone wanting to make the process as smooth and painless as possible." - Tyler C.

★★★★★
"Ashley was not only my realtor but a good friend of mine since the moment I moved to Austin. She did more than just sell me a condo but introduced me to Austin, new places, new friends, cool finds, and open arms. She was readily available at all hours of the day and when asked a question or I needed help she was able to find an answer or make something work. She also had a good search that was fitting to my preferences when looking for places. I would highly recommend her to others! My closing could have been much more of a nightmare, but she was able to be there to see the thing through and make it happen. She was even there with me to sign the final papers--this was so reassuring and treated me to lunch to celebrate:) I now have a new place to call my own, thanks to her and a great friend from this whole experience. Thank you, Ashley Brinkman and Compass, I couldn't have done it without you!" - Kelly D.

"Best real estate agent ever. Period." - Isaac

★★★★★
"After 3 plus years, my wife and I have a home again and Ashley Brinkman and the whole team at Compass were awesome to work with. The process was straight forward and Ashley and crew kept us on top of everything every step of the way. Thank you Compass... We will be recommending you to anyone and everyone we meet." - James L.

★★★★★
"Ashley Brinkman exceeded my expectations a Realtor provides. Simply said, she is extremely hard working and extremely knowledgeable about the Austin market. She is very good with technology which allowed me to shop for property from out of town and still get my offer in as if was staying in Austin. Even after the sell she continues to support the transition of my taking control of the property, demonstrating excellent service after the sell. I highly recommend Ashley to anyone shopping for Austin Area property." - Michael D.

★★★★★
"My experience with Ashley was great. This is the second time I have used her to purchase a home and I used her many years ago to find a rental property. Since then, I have referred her to numerous friends and they all agree. She works extremely hard to find you the perfect home. She is patient, even when her clients (me) are being difficult and she has lots of wonderful ideas and resources. I now consider Ashely more than a Relator, but a friend. I believe Compass is VERY lucky to have her as part of the team. She will undoubtedly go far." - Heidi C.

★★★★★
"My wife and I worked with Ashley Brinkman when we relocated to Austin on short notice earlier this year. Ashley's insight and broad knowledge of the Austin area helped us to determine which neighborhoods best met our criteria, and at the end of the day, Ashley found us the perfect home in our #1 neighborhood! Ashley was always available when we needed her, provided solid advice throughout the home buying process, and helped to make the closing as smooth as ever. I would recommend to anyone. Ashley, we can't thank you enough!" - Wesley Z.

★★★★★
"Ashley Brinkman made building my first home an absolute breeze! She's very knowledgeable with the entire process and always available to answer any questions I had. She even took the time to get back to me while she was on vacation out of the country! She joined me at my builders studio appointment so she could give me tips on what was popular in today's market as I wanted to keep resale in mind. That's only a small example of the excellent service you can expect when dealing with Ashley. I look forward to working with her in the future and would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell. Her passion, knowledge and enthusiasm for what she does really shows... just my opinion but that's the kind of person I like to work with on such a big financial decision." - Byron N.

★★★★★
"Ashley was amazing! She helped us all the way through the building process and at closing. She kept in touch while the house was being built and she worked with our builder to ensure everything was done correctly. She helped us to ask the right questions and was always there when I needed advise about our loan. She got us a garage door opener and made us a beautiful wreath and gift basket as a house warming gift. She went over and above our expectations. I will definitely be recommending her to my friends!" - Hollis N.

★★★★★
"My experience working with Ashley was wonderful. She went above and beyond in helping us to find our home. She was patient with us and we were picky. She never pushed us in to a home that wasn't right for us, and she was always positive, optimistic, and encouraging, telling us that we would know when it was right. We were first time buyers and she did a great job keeping us informed, answering all of our questions, and walking us through the process. We could not have been more happy with her and fully intend to recommend her to our friends and family. I have known Ashley a long time, and I cannot tell you how impressed I was with her professionalism, knowledge, and experience. It makes me so proud to see what an amazing realtor she has become. Again, great experience, and would not hesitate to work with her again." - Lauren T.

★★★★★
"Ever since Ashley reached out to me back in November of last year, she has continually given me the comfort and confidence to inquire about different aspects of the home searching process. Not only that, but she was very pro-active in supplying me with relevant and helpful materials about what to expect at each stage of purchasing a home. What I think I enjoyed most about Ashley, was that there was a period of a few months in which I was out of contact with her because I was saving up money and so on, and after a while she re-established contact with me to ask if there was anything that I needed or wanted to know about the housing market and if I was still interested in purchasing. This gesture really made me feel like she was interested in helping me reach my goal of being a homeowner. Subsequent to that, anytime I wanted to view a property, she would not hesitate to work around my schedule to show me the home. I'm very involved with my job so the fact that Ashley did not bat an eye about viewing properties later in the evening really meant a lot to me. She was extremely knowledgeable about the homes we visited, what to look for, and commanded a great grasp of making one feel comfortable with home buying. Once I finally selected the home I desired, Ashley continued to be a wonderful resource and kept me apprised of the important things I needed to collect and take care of in anticipation of closing. I honestly believe her efforts made the process so much easier. In sum, working with Ashley was an incredible experience. She was extremely friendly, knowledgeable, and most of all genuine in all that she did. I would not hesitate for a moment to recommend her to anyone who is thinking of becoming a homeowner. I only hope that my words can serve in some way to reflect just how pleasurable it was to have her as my guide." - Mario

★★★★★
"Dennis and I were very impressed with Ashley. She was very professional and provided us with personal service. She answered all our questions in a timely manner. She kept us abreast of the process of buying a home. We found the perfect house and give Ashley credit for helping us find it! The closing went very smoothly. We are anxious to get settled in. We would definitely recommend Ashley to our family and friends. Ashley is was truly a pleasure to work with!" - Karen V.

★★★★★
"Ashley did a great job for me, as usual. She has been my agent on two different occasions and I think she is fantastic. She was knowledgeable about pricing in my area so we set my asking price a little bit above what I thought we would, but it completely paid off. We received multiple offers at or above the asking price and I ended up getting more than I thought would be possible for my sale. Despite multiple roadblocks popping up during the selling, she kept things on track and was always quick to address issues and my concerns. I would recommend Ashley to anyone because she's really incredible at what she does." - Dan D.

★★★★★
"I could not have asked for a better home-buying experience than what Ashley was able to provide. Shortly after getting married, my husband and I wanted to jump into buying a house before we thought all the Austin area homes would be gone. Neither of us knew how the process worked, but Ashley went above and beyond what I ever would have expected a realtor to do; guiding us through each step. She sought out every detail we felt was important in a home. She kept our budget in mind and never pressured us to look at more than we could afford. She found us the perfect location that we had never before paid attention to on the map! She answered every single question I could think of - before, during, and even after we closed. She is very easy to get a hold of and is quick to respond. To top it off, she really made our closing date special for us. And she continues to keep us informed and updated on our needs now as homeowners. I recommend Ashley to any and all of my friends and we would use her again in a heartbeat!" - Paige + Joseph B.

★★★★★
"As first time buyers in a very competitive market, Ashley Brinkman made the difference for us! I will not be able to say enough good things about her. She was extremely timely, dependable, helpful, friendly and most important, GREAT at what she does. We had multiple offers to compete with and were not expecting good news but we got the call from Ashley with the best news! I now write this review from my new living room. The Compass team was amazing to work with as well. If you are in the market for a new home, you can't go wrong with Compass and especially Ashley Brinkman!" - Mick N.

★★★★★
"I highly recommend Ashley to all my friends and future homeowner. I have taken the time out to post a review to help spread the word about my great experience. Being in the military can be hard because I have been living out of a bag for the last 8 years. Finally, I have a place I can call homeit's truly a blessing. Ashely unselfish dedication to helping veterans and families find their dream homes goes beyond words. Thank you so much." - Shannan C.

★★★★★
"Ashley's attention to detail was suburb. As a first-time home buyer, her expertise was greatly appreciated." - Ginger B.

★★★★★
"I have been fortunate to work with a number of Ashley's clients to inspect the homes that they were considering for purchase. Ashley is by far the most knowledgeable and hardest working realtor in the Central Texas area. Her clients know that when they put Ashley to work to find the right property for them, she is like a bulldog with a bone in getting the job done and quickly. Most outstanding was the client that was in Spain, and within 4 hours of the listing showing up on MLS, she had the property under contract for the client. Put Ashley to work for you, and you clearly have the best realtor in town! " - Bill C.

★★★★★
"Ashley did a fabulous job finding a house for us. She listened well to what we wanted and went the extra mile to show us houses in those areas. We were buying while out of state and she did a great job of sending virtual tours of all the houses she viewed for us. She was very timely and responsive, professional yet fun and worked hard for us at odd hours of the day and week. We highly recommend Ashley as a buying agent for the Austin area!" - Lindy + Todd W.

★★★★★
"I had a very positive experience while working with Ashley to purchase my first home. She is professional but also friendly and very easy to be around. Her personality made the stressful and sometimes monotonous-feeling process of driving around and looking at properties much more enjoyable! Ashley will work very hard for you. She always returned my calls/emails promptly and went out of her way several times to make things easier for me. Ashley was very helpful, guiding me through every step of the process. She gave good sound advice but wasn't too pushy. It was clear that she had my best interest in mind and even went to bat for me when the title company gave us problems at closing. Ashley is a great realtor and I would definitely recommend her!" - Shadan K.

★★★★★
"Ashley is the bomb.com. We decided to work with Ashley in purchasing our third property, and we couldn't have been happier. She knows the market, the neighborhoods, the contacts for EVERYTHING you'd ever need done to a home, and has great insight into where your home will be in the future. The main thing we loved about Ashley is we didn't feel overwhelmed or stressed throughout the process - and we were planning a wedding, traveling over the Christmas/New Year holidays, and were sick. We knew she had our backs, negotiated like a boss, and helped us find a home that we will live in for the foreseeable future. We plan on investing in other properties in Austin in the coming years and will definitely come back to Ashely. Highly recommend her!" - Kelsey + Shahin

★★★★★
"Ashley has SO much knowledge about the industry and respects the pace of ready-not-so-ready home seekers; she checks in periodically when you're grazing, and shows up when you're ready. She is frank, supportive and responsive throughout and we would not hesitate working with her again when the time comes." - Claire H.

★★★★★
"After buying my first home with Ashley in 2010, there was no question that she'd be my go-to realtor in Austin. Fast forward 8 years, I was moving out of state and needed to sell quickly. Luckily, Ashley was there to help ease the process. She connected me with the right people and set me up with everything I needed to be successful. She was super responsive and available from start to finish. Ashley knows her stuff - she is extremely knowledgeable, experienced, and was patient to answer all my questions. Not only is Ashley a fantastic realtor, a bonus is that she's fun to be around. You can tell that she truly loves helping others; her generosity shines through while working with her and even afterwards, whether she's hosting awesome events for clients or sending holiday treats. I highly recommend Ashley and her team and will definitely use her again if I move back to Austin." - Shadan K.

★★★★★
"We worked with Ashley over a period of several months. Ashley was fantastic, and we highly recommend her. We were looking in Austin from out of town, so she did a lot of the leg work for us (e.g., Ashley volunteered on several occasions to go take pictures of houses and email them to us). She took us around Austin several times when we came into town (once on only one days' notice), and Ashley was very helpful in listening to what we wanted and tailoring our search accordingly. Ashley was very responsive to our emails, and she made the process of looking for a house much easier. Overall, Ashley well exceeded our expectations, and anyone looking for a home in Austin should meet with her!" - Jacque K.

★★★★★
"We feel so lucky to have had Ashley Brinkman as our AWESOME Realtor.

★★★★★
"I had the pleasure of working with Ashley Brinkman through the tedious process of building my first new home. She helped prepare me for what to expect which made a huge difference when it came to inevitable delays, etc. Had I not be adequately prepared, I may have gone crazy. I also don't know anyone who works harder. She's available when you have questions and has so many connections that if she doesn't have an answer, she certainly knows someone who does. I'd definitely recommend Ashley to anyone looking to buy a home. She'll work hard so you don't have to!!" - Courtney + Collin H.

★★★★★
"Ashley was great! She was available every time we were wanting to check out a property, even at the last minute. She was very patient with us. She took charge when she needed to, but gave us our space and let us move at our own pace, as well. She was very organized and was able to recall properties we had viewed in the past when we were unable to remember what houses we saw and what we liked about each property. She immediately picked up on the different aspects of each house that we did and did not like, which helped her suggest other properties that she thought we would be interested in looking at. She gave us her honest opinion when we asked her about things we were concerned with. She even looked after my nephew when he tagged along during some of the house searches, which gave my husband and me a chance to look at properties. I would definitely recommend Ashley Brinkman to anyone who is wanting to buy a home." - Marah + Nick N.

★★★★★
"I was in the market for an investment property and Ashley's expertise was unmatched. I gave her my criteria and she was able to find multiple properties.

Great experience lead to exactly what I wanted and I would recommend Ashley to any range of buyer." - Jason H.

"Ashley was FANTASTIC! As a first-time home buyer, I had a lot of questions and reservations during the process. Ashley gave me no-fluff, accurate answers and helped me feel secure in my decisions. 6 months later, I have no regrets and recommend Ashley to all of my friends!" - Sarah G.

★★★★★
"Ashley helped me when I purchased my first home. As a young professional, it was important to find a nice balance between what was \cool and hip\" and what was practical. Ashley took me to see several homes that would have made a lot of sense for me in terms of my price range and functionality. When it came down to making an offer, she could sense I wasn't in love with any of those homes. At that point she told me that it was good to be practical, but I also need to have an emotional connection to a home, and that we would keep looking until we found the right one. We did! I really felt like Ashley understood my needs, and helped me to make a well rounded decision when I purchased my home. It's been almost two years since I bought my house, and I love it more every day." - Kathleen S.

★★★★★
"I would recommend Ashley Brinkman to any of my friends because she is tireless in the job at which she does. She was my realtor when I bought my home in 2012 as well as renting my house in 2013 and 2014. She is dedicated to her clients and ensures that their needs are met. She bought my daughter a gift as well as gave us thoughtful closing gifts. She was able to work with my crazy schedule and find houses for me that suited my needs. She really made the process quite easy. She was there every step of the way to ensure that I understood what was going as I was a first time homebuyer. If you want dedication and a knowledgeable Realtor, Ashley Brinkman is the woman for the job!" - K. Rivera

★★★★★
"Ashley was very helpful and answered all of our emails and phone calls very quickly! We wanted a 4 bedroom house with a pool, big yard, and 2 1/2 baths! We got it and could not be more happy! We had a wonderful experience and would HIGHLY recommend Ashley to everyone." - Kellen + Ryan B.
