"Janine Mitchell is a rock star real estate agent! She is prompt, accommodating, and professional. There is so much that goes into searching for a new home, and it's comforting to know that I was in capable hands. Janine will go above and beyond your expectations! She was such a great guide, especially for my family who was moving in from out of town and didn't know the area. She was instrumental during every step of the process. We will recommend her to anyone and everyone we know who is looking to move to Austin. Thank you, Janine!" - Rich G.

"Janine and her team were excellent! Moving from Oregon to Texas came with high anxiety. Working with Janine was a relief having an experienced and competent realtor. My wife and I have used many agents in the past. Our AC system broke down 2 months after escrow closed. Everyone we called was booked 1-2 weeks out. It's July of course and 100+ temps. We called Janine and she had someone out in 2 days to make repairs. She will go above and beyond her job description. A soft warm compassionate person with high character. Nothing phony about Janine, give her that interview and you'll see these qualities." - Michael M.

"If you're looking for a Realtor who will give a personalized touch and put in the effort and care you would expect from a friend or family member, Janine IS that Realtor! She is sincere, kind, and genuinely cares about her clients as people. She took the time to truly get to know us, what we needed in a neighborhood and house, and our longer-term vision and goals for our home and she nailed it! We found our perfect house within just a week of working with Janine, and the entire house buying process went extremely smoothly. She was with us every step of the way, providing her valuable knowledge, expertise, and support. She was extremely flexible and always looked out for our best interests. We love Janine, and she continues to wow us with her thoughtful birthday cards and resources for our new journey as homeowners. We would encourage anyone to work with Janine. You'll be so glad that you did!" - Leah M.

"We had a great experience with Janine as our real estate agent. She exceeded our expectations and went above and beyond by communicating well with us throughout the entire journey. We are truly grateful to her for helping not only us but also our boys when they bought a house last year. Thanks to Janine and the whole team!" - Annabelle I.
★★★★★
"As a first-time home buyer, I had such a pleasant experience working with Janine. Janine made the whole process as smooth as it could be. She was very thorough, very responsive, and took time to learn what I needed and what I wanted in a home, and had patience with me if I needed extra things explained. I couldn’t recommend her enough." - Brandi G.

"Hands down, the best real estate experience we've ever had! We first discovered Janine 5 years ago when we were considering a move to Austin. I stumbled across one of her listings on the Realty Austin website and decided to subscribe to her email list. From her very first newsletter, I could tell she was different from every other real estate agent I’d come across—knowledgeable, insightful, and genuinely passionate about Austin real estate. Life took a few unexpected turns and our plans to move were put on hold, but I stayed subscribed to her updates all these years because they were always so informative and well-curated. Fast forward to now, we finally decided to revisit the idea of buying a property in Austin—and of course, Janine was the first person I reached out to. From the moment I emailed her, everything moved fast (just the way we wanted). Within a week or two, we flew out to Austin, and Janine had already lined up all the houses (to be more exact, 14 houses!) we were interested in seeing, which was incredible. She packed our two days with efficient, well-thought-out showings, provided a neighborhood tour itinerary, and even suggested we swap out a few properties she felt wouldn’t be the right fit—with spot-on replacements. By the third day, we were ready to make an offer! From first contact to being under contract took less than a month. Janine also connected us with excellent lenders, and every step of the way she and her incredible team—especially Helen—were organized, responsive, and so easy to work with. Janine is everything you’d want in a real estate agent: sharp, honest, efficient, and kind. If we ever decide to buy again—or sell the home we just bought—there’s no question who we’ll be calling. Janine is the one.Thank you for making this experience not only possible, but actually enjoyable. You’re a gem, Janine!" - Ali

"My wife and I worked with Janine for the past year as we built a new house. She has extensive knowledge of the real estate market, as well as knowledge and information related to all the things that need to be considered when building a house, which really helped! If you're looking for a great Realtor in the Central Texas / Greater Austin area, I strongly recommend that you contact Janine. She's professional, extremely responsive, and a great person to work with!" - Richard H.
