"We will forever be grateful to Allie and her team! We haves moved several times but we have never had a real estate agent be so communicative and helpful every step of the way! We moved from out of state and had a limited time to search. Allie had a spreadsheet like nothing I’ve ever seen before going over every new build neighborhood, with all of our requirements to make sure we made the most of our quick trip to search. Even after the closing, she continuously checked in on us and made sure we knew when deadlines were for various things we needed to file with the state. Again, do yourselves a favor and work with Allie! Truly the best!" - Anonymous

"Meg was awesome to work with Meg was awesome to work with After searching for the perfect starter home, I finally found the right one—with the help of Meg! I’m a big numbers person, I want to know the costs of various scenarios, and I need time think and process things - Meg was the perfect partner in this journey. She was patient, knowledgeable, and always had my best interests in mind. I knew exactly what I was willing to spend, and I wasn’t going to back down from my offer. Meg supported me every step of the way, ensuring I stayed competitive while staying true to my goals. Beyond just helping me find the home, she also connected me with trusted contractors for upgrades, which made the transition even smoother. That extra level of support really made a difference. If you're looking for a realtor who genuinely listens, provides expert guidance, and fights for the best deal, I highly recommend Meg!" - Vanesaa M.

"Just a heads up that Allie was an amazing realtor to partner with - super professional and made the whole house-buying thing a lot less stressful! She is on top of her game and did not take her eye off the smallest detail. Even now we have completed contracts she is still pursuing last minute details for us to complete the process after we have signed and moved in to our home. She is friendly, easy going and worked with us on differing time zones making her whole approach very flexible. We would definitely engage her again should we ever need to sell/buy a property." - Nancy S.

My partner and I moved to Austin from North Carolina, and Meg worked to make sure the very brief weekend we had available to tour properties to rent was worthwhile.

"We worked with Allie Martinez, and we could not be happier about it. She was with us every step of the way of our new build from going to design meetings, to helping with the long financing process, to being our advocate with the builder. She was prompt in responding and was on top of the whole process. I have already recommended to several friends and will continue to do so.

"I have the privilege to work with Allie Martinez on selling my home. From start to finish she was superb. Everything from staging the house till closing was excellent. She always communicated with me on a daily basis and let me know what’s going on which I think is very important something my other realtor was lacking and I appreciate it very much so. She was able to have the house under contract within days and sold in a timely matter. I really value her expertise and experience in the real estate industry. She is the best." - Don T.

★★★★★
"Allie is honestly a breath of fresh air as a realtor. This was our 3rd purchase and our best experience to date. She not only pulled documents for every house we looked at, but was familiar enough with the content to be able to answer questions and help guide us towards what we were looking for. Highly recommend!" - James H.

"Allie and I have known each other for a long time, meeting originally as teammates playing rec volleyball. I remember when she started her real estate journey, so it is even more special to be here actually buying a house with her as my agent. Allie was the first person I thought of when I started having questions about buying a house. She was gracious to let me buy her lunch in exchange for asking her ALL THE QUESTIONS about buying a home, homeownership, etc. She has been both a consummate professional and warm, supportive friend through all of these plot twists and turns. She initially helped me find my first, then my second rental home, and now she's found me my new (and perhaps forever) home! Allie knows her stuff and is amazing with communicating and being tuned into the nuances, details, things I wouldn't think to ask about, as well as the big picture. Allie isn't afraid to give clear feedback and direction, and she backs these up with ideas, next steps, suggestions, and alternative options. Also, Allie partners with and recommends amazing people to support the deal, particularly with lending and title. The experiences working with Brooke and Tyler's team on the lending side as well as Tiffany at title exceeded expectations, and everyone seemed to sync up and make it all look easy. They were sweet, fun, knowledgeable, accessible, and thorough in their processes. I walked away from this experience with the real estate team feeling really well taken care of. Most importantly, it was clear that Allie cares for her clients, and I felt in such capable, confident hands every time I've worked with Allie." - KF

"I found my home with Allie Martinez from Compass. I can't express enough how easy and streamlined Allie and her team made the entire process. We found my home and closed in just 3 weeks time. I was blown away at how her team helped me navigate such a tight timeline. The experience was fantastic - I can't say enough good things about Allie. She is knowledgeable, organized, and brilliant at structuring a successful offer. Highly recommend working with her for any buying/selling needs." - Jenny C.

★★★★★
"I had the opportunity to work with Allie Martinez for both the sale of a home and the purchase of a new construction home. Allie is professional, beyond organized and goes over and beyond for her clients to ensure important milestones are met. I can't express enough the importance of working with an agent that will go the extra mile for you as the client, especially when purchasing new construction. Her ability to expedite situations and keep communication flowing between all parties is her strength and I cannot express enough how important this was for us during our home buying/selling experience. Additionally, she has a wonderful team working with her, which makes every step of the process feel incredibly seamless. Thank you, Allie, for all of the hard work you put into making sure we got what we wanted during the sale of our home and for ensuring we hit all milestones necessary to close on our new home. We are beyond thankful for you and can't wait to recommend you to friends and family in the future." - Maria J. + Camilo K.

"We were thrilled with the quick turnaround and favorable terms delivered by our agent Allie Martinez - Her service was comprehensive, and little was required from us to land a home in our dream neighborhood. Her knowledge of the city and best practices allowed us to come in WELL under asking price and we couldn't be happier." - Ben J.

★★★★★
"We highly recommend Allie! This was my first experience purchasing property and Allie was very consultative from our very first meeting. Allie is extremely smart and we appreciated that her recommendations are based foremost on data and analytics, backed further by her deep knowledge and insights into the Austin market. She really cared about us feeling confident in our decision and was always very even-keeled and empathetic during stressful moments (for us) in the condo-buying journey. Perhaps most importantly, Allie does what she says she’s going to do when she says she going to do it - you can trust and rely on her. Allie is extremely organized and always keeps all the other players in the process accountable and ensures everything is on track. We also really appreciated Allie negotiating a favorable outcome in a last-minute HOA scenario. We’ve had multiple friends work with Allie and we’re glad we did too. " - Ashley K.

"I could not have asked for a better first-time home buying experience. Allie was honest about what I could afford and was present and available every step of the way. This girl knows real estate and doesn't shy away from a challenge in this current competitive real estate market." - Misha M.

★★★★★
"As first-time home buyers, my husband and I were truly newbies to the process. We worked with Allie Martinez to purchase our home, and I'm convinced we couldn't have done it without her! On top of being incredibly professional and responsive, Allie was also incredibly patient and informative. She happily explained the details of the process to us every step of the way (without using confusing realty jargon), so we always felt in the know. She also went above and beyond to help push the process forward when it stalled - checking in frequently with the right people at the right time to keep things moving. This was truly a game-changer for us - if it weren't for her, we'd probably still be waiting for our appraisal to come through! Her level of organization and follow-through is unmatched. Allie is a true pro - and I'm already looking forward to when we get to work with her again in the future!" - Erica M.

★★★★★
"Allie is an amazing realtor and will be my go-to realtor if I need one again.

"Allie was wonderful! Explained everything along the homebuying process and was an active participant in building my new home. She was a referral & I will absolutely pay it forward! " - Jen

★★★★★
"Allie is the most professional and knowledgeable realtor I have ever had the experience of working with. From the very first day to the morning of closing, it was evident that we had made the right decision choosing Allie to represent us on the purchase of our home. The current state of the market is not an easy place to navigate, and I am not sure we would have been successful without Allie on our team. Allie's creativity and expertise allowed her to develop a plan to make sure we were able to find a house and make a competitive offer. Additionally, she makes herself available to the client whenever possible and ensures that you are confident and prepared for what is next. Allie will be my go-to realtor as long as she is selling homes, and I would recommend her many times over!" - Anthony S.

"Are you, or will you be in the market for buying a home/investment property? Are you out of state relocating to Austin? Are you a local looking for a new property?
If the answer is Yes to any of the above, my comments below will serve you well.
Just a warning, I have a Type A personality; therefore, my statements are based purely on deliverables and comparing this experience with previous similar situations. As someone relocating from Northern Virginia to Austin and not knowing the city, our initial search was based on emotional and personal needs... Little we knew about the unusual house market we were about to face. Here came Allie... Her second-to known real-life business intelligence on the Austin/Texas real estate market, and a very pragmatic way of asking questions, took us through a whole discovery and validation of our aspirations versus what could be achievable, especially in Austin's real estate market. That saved us a lot of time in looking and deciding the best alternatives. She never gave us a "sales pitch." She helped us come to realistic yet doable scenarios, presented every piece of data to help me triangulate our conversations (remember, Type A), and showed command not only on the process of buying a home but all other nuances -some local to Texas- that we needed to know. We finally decided on a property, and right in from the kickoff conversation with the builder, she made it clear to the builder she was representing us and our interest. She asked ALL questions and more, revalidating and clarifying at times what the contract and liabilities were. This comment is like no other. I provide information based on deliverables and benchmarks met on this transaction (from house hunting>analyzing alternatives >contracting). There is more to come when we move to "carpet day" > closing. For people in the same situation as ours, I cannot stress the fact that engaging with the best realtor will be key in purchasing the best home based on your needs. I am leading you to THE best, Allie Martinez." - Carlos M.

"Allie was our realtor when we purchased a second home (for my mother-in-law) in 2020. It was really important that we find a wonderful place for her, close to us, that was the right size and the right layout. The inventory in our area is very low, and every house had multiple offers. Likewise, the pandemic was in full swing, and we wanted to find her a home quickly. Allie helped us craft a winning offer against 14 other offers, so we could secure the property. She was very responsive, proactive, assured, and helpful. Smooth sailing all the way to the finish. We have found our "for life" realtor!" - Kristy B.

★★★★★
"Allie is the best! Period!
The key things that stood out to me about Allie's work were:
Knowledge of the Austin market
Allie was able to very effectively guide us through narrowing down our search list. The result of this guidance was that we could be incredibly competitive during a time where real estate in Austin is filled with bidding wars.
Allie knows all of the good spots in order to get a feel for an area. For someone like myself, who previously only had experience with UT's campus, having this info was crucial to finding a place that suits my lifestyle.
Incredibly punctual
I frequently found myself texting/emailing Allie questions and getting a response within 5 minutes. Even after normal working hours!
Attention to detail
When touring homes and during the buying process, Allie spotted every flaw in a house or oversight from the seller/title immediately. This level of nuance gave me confidence that I had all the information that was available in order to make a sound investment.
Incredibly personable
Allie was super nice and easy to get along with, which made a traditionally laborious process into a fun one.
Overall, I can't say enough good things about Allie. I've already recommended her to two of my best friends, and I'll definitely be going back to her in the future for all of my home buying needs!" - Ben R.

★★★★★
"I just wish we could buy and sell more houses with Allie! From our first conversation to both closings, Allie proved her worth and was our biggest asset throughout the process. She's knowledgeable and understands this market like no other. She treated us like a friend through it all and put our interest above all else. She always made herself available for us but what truly set her apart was her ability to articulate the details that so many realtors gloss over throughout the process. We were never left in the dark, and we felt confident in every decision we made because we were well informed. She's a good person, and we will never hesitate to recommend her." - Jeff B.

★★★★★
"Allie was my realtor last year and she is the absolute best. She was responsive, professional and made sure all my questions were answered. She helped me find my dream home. Can't recommend enough. Thank you, Allie!" - Alejandro M.

★★★★★
"Allie helped me purchase my first home back in October. It was a great experience! Our offer got accepted and we were even able to negotiate down. A rarity in this market. Highly recommended!" - Mike B.

★★★★★
"As I'm sure is common, we know a number of Realtors, so when it came time to select a Realtor, we were considering Allie and someone else that I have a relationship with, and we are very glad we went with Allie. We had about an hour-long conversation with both of the people we were considering, and Allie's organization and details of the necessary research made a significant impression. When we asked Allie what can be done for buyers in such a severely tilted market like this, she regurgitated a 27 point list of things she does to help her clients have the best (most up-to-date information possible), so we know what offers will be competitive, and whether we can make those offers. Even though I have a good connection with the other Realtor, I knew right away after concluding discussions with both of them that Allie was unquestionably the right choice.
In practice, she delivered every excessively high expectation she set in our interview. In our case, for the house we bought, we offered 27% over the asking price with a full appraisal waiver, something we would not have been able to do without Allie's detailed market analysis. She had a table listing various comparable houses that had either recently sold or gone into contract, their list price, the offer price, or the sold price. She also relayed to us what she thought would be a competitive bid. With all this information, we made an offer knowing that while the appraisal gap could be very large, the comparative analysis was evidence that it would likely not be anywhere near the difference between the asking and offered prices. So we made the offer we did, won it [by $1000]. After our third day of looking. But Allie didn't stop there. She also coordinated regularly and thoroughly with our lender to promptly make sure everything was progressing as smoothly as possible and promptly address any potential issues.
I tell our friends that we were lucky in our experience, but only in the fact that we knew Allie. That's where the luck ends because from there, everything that went our way was because of Allie. In my opinion, if any one of the myriads of things Allie did was missing from this equation, we would not have gotten in on a good home for us as early as we did, and by extension, as low a price as possible. After watching friends languish in their searches for nearly 6 months, and some just giving up, I knew that we needed to act decisively and quickly to ensure we paid as little as possible. We couldn't have done it without Allie, simply put." - Bradley M.

★★★★★
"My husband, Jeremiah, and I cannot speak highly enough of Allie. We have bought and sold two properties in New York in the past and felt like we had worked with strong agents. But, now we know that those experiences paled in comparison to working with Allie.
She is incredibly intelligent, has a deep understanding of this crazy market, and has the perfect blend of strategy and creativity to craft winning offer strategies. I'm sure you are very aware, but this market can be very dejecting for buyers. Allie had the EQ to know when to cheer us on, when to pull back and when to help expand our horizons a bit. It can be such an emotional process, and she helped manage our expectations throughout, navigating day by day with the right amount of strategy and emotion.
From our initial conversation with Allie, we were impressed by how good of a communicator she is. She listened closely to what we were looking for and then helped us understand where to look, how to think about the market, and start the process. As the market changed rapidly from our initial conversation, she always kept us informed of how the changes could impact us and if there were any implications to our search. She guided us to learn more about Austin and helped us find the neighborhood for us. Once we picked the neighborhood, we were pretty laser-focused (which, we admit, made us relatively inflexible clients!). But, Allie was up for the challenge, not letting the market dynamics be an excuse. She came up with creative strategies to leverage her network to find off-market properties or coming soon listings we could consider.
We found our dream house before it was listed, and she worked expertly to nurture a relationship of trust with the seller's agent. Also of note, she had an incredibly close partnership with our lender, which made our offer much stronger. Their ability to work together so seamlessly on our behalf was an incredible value-add to the process.
I did not intend to write such a long message, but working with Allie was really a great experience. Compass should be very proud that Allie is such a strong advocate for their company. " - Ana + Jeremiah

★★★★★
"Extremely knowledgeable, helpful, and all-around great experience. I would recommend her to anyone I know looking for a home in Austin and surrounding areas. I don't naturally trust people, but in this market, I felt comfortable letting Allie tell me how things are and what was necessary to get into a house I wanted. A huge leap of faith for me, and I could not have been in better hands. " - Eric F.

★★★★★
"Allie was referred to us by a good friend and coworker of mine. From the first phone call, we knew working with Allie, and the Compass team was going to be a wonderful experience. Allie was thorough, responsive, and exceeded our expectations through her due diligence on every property we were interested in. I have already contacted another friend of mine and will continue to recommend Allie and the Compass group in the future." - Garrett V.

★★★★★
"Allie Martinez was our Realtor, and she was proactive from the get-go. She reached out to us when we started toying around with the idea of buying a home. She was extremely helpful from day 1, answering questions and informing us of the process over a Zoom call. Allie constantly suggested properties to us without being overbearing, and if we wanted to see one, she always made time in her schedule for a viewing. She's extremely knowledgeable about the Austin area and does her research when presenting options to buyers. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a home in the area!" - Brad R.

"Allie Martinez was amazingly wonderful in helping me rent out my duplex. A+ experience. Will work with her again." - Kevin M.

★★★★★
" We absolutely loved working with Allie and sing her praises to friends. We felt extremely supported throughout our first home purchase and couldn't be happier. We started talking with Allie in early 2020, paused our search when the pandemic first hit, and she was right there with us a few months later when we were ready to search again.
We went from being fish out of the water to being very confident in buying this home. Allie kept us organized and informed but never overwhelmed us with information, and we always learned things at the right time. We are the type of people who project manage everything in our lives, but we quickly learned Allie was 100% on top of everything, and we could truly let her do her job.
Allie is always in our corner, extremely knowledgeable, offers incredible advice, and matches my own penchant for details. We're so appreciative that we had Allie (and Erin) to wrangle information and organize communication with everyone else we worked with during the home buying process (builder sales rep, lender, third party inspector, etc.). We will definitely continue recommending Allie to others.
We also enjoyed Compass' website! It's clean, easy to navigate, and has useful filters." - Jennifer+ T.

★★★★★
"I really can't say enough nice things about working with Allie and Compass. I decided to move on October 15th and first talked with Allie the following week. Less than two months later, my condo unit is sold, and I have a new house. The results speak for themselves!
I contacted Allie based on a recommendation from close friends who bought a house earlier this fall. They moved from an apartment to a home further north, got exactly the home they wanted despite the very fast market, and were comfortable with the pandemic precautions taken (they're more cautious than me).
On the selling side, condos in my complex tend to sit on the market for a while. I wanted to sell relatively quickly and knew my place has a great location but a few issues (colorful paint, iffy management, bad hot water), so I appreciated Allie's market analysis and having a plan to present and market it. The staging guidance was helpful, and the photos were impressive! The viewing process was disruptive since I am working from home and have cats, but it was over very quickly. I was surprised and pleased to have a full-price offer that first weekend, and from a resident-owner rather than an investor. The market is good right now, but my neighbor's unit (comparable, listed with Redfin) didn't sell at all. So I think that working with Compass gave me a very valuable edge.
Again, as a buyer, I found the market analysis useful, especially since offering over list price is now more common. I know Allie did a lot of negotiating with the seller's agent that I never saw, and it was always clear to me that she was acting on my behalf on this transaction. And this was my first time buying a home, so her knowledge of house conditions and issues was invaluable. The transaction with the lender I had previously lined up was very smooth, and the one hiccup was an issue Allie flagged long before the lender noticed it. Both the title company and the contractor/inspector recommendation Allie gave me were great. It's partly luck that a house I liked was listed at a convenient time, but with Allie's advice, I beat several other offers for it. The listings in the next weeks were less interesting, so getting this place probably saved me a double move.
And this doesn't quite fit in with either category, but I liked Compass' team set up a lot. I'm a litigation paralegal, and, in my experience, cases run smoother when the attorneys' support staff are directly and visibly involved. That wasn't something I knew I wanted from a Realtor, but I appreciated that Erin Foster was in the loop and watching schedules as well. I know she and Allie both worked late hours on these transactions.
I'm very pleased with how this all worked out and will definitely recommend Allie and Compass to anyone looking for a Realtor!" - Val

★★★★★
"We worked with Allie Martinez for our home search and could not have been happier with the outcome. Allie was extremely professional while being very understanding of our very limited knowledge of the home search process. She made sure to not only organize us at every step of the way but explain in layman's terms what each step of the way meant. While she was under no obligation to do so, she provided multiple recommendations for contractors and various services that all worked out perfectly and affordably. She was available to talk through text at any hour of the day and weekends and would show up to a listing at a moment's notice if needed. Even after the home search was over, and she put up with all of our questions, she made sure to walk us through the closing process. She was quite the negotiator when it came to the closing and getting us what we were looking for, as well as things we didn't know we needed. She was a tremendous help when it came to predicting our questions and needs before we knew we had them. We could not recommend Allie Martinez enough for any realty needs you may have!" - Kyle H.

★★★★★
"In short, Allie was amazing, and I would/will highly recommend her. My wife and I actually went through the buying process 2 years ago with another Austin Realtor. I won't name names, and while they weren't bad, they left us with a very 'meh' feeling about Realtors. We really didn't think they added a lot, nor helped us much during the process. However, since it was our only experience at the time, we just assumed that it was par for the course for most Realtors.
On the contrary, Allie was very attentive, helpful, and constantly went above and beyond. Most importantly, she was very genuine with her help and advice. I think those are the two most important qualities in a Realtor these days: effort and being genuine. It's so easy to do a lot of research on your own, and even easier when you've already gone through the process recently.
Whether it was different resources, tips, or advice based on her experience, Allie was constantly adding value to our search/buying process. She was very transparent with her advice and was honest when she felt some decisions were best for us, and she wanted to stay neutral. If it wasn't for her going to bat for us with the seller's Realtor, we wouldn't have been able to buy the house that we ended up buying. She went the extra mile to make sure we had the opportunity to buy the house and didn't pressure us. She established herself as an expert in the process. I remember my experience with the last Realtor, who I felt was only doing a half-ass job at trying to be our "friend." Again, the contrast with Allie was that she was our trusted partner, and that's really what someone needs when going through the buying process. I could go on and on, but I'd give Allie an 11 out of 10. " - David M.

★★★★★
"We are first-time home buyers and cannot be more pleased with Allie. Allie was very informative, tried very hard to make sure we understood everything every step of the way, and was super patient with us about everything, from us wavering between whether or not we actually wanted to buy a house to helping us look at neighborhoods, to evaluating and making sure we were aware of the flaws in the house that she noticed that she was worried we might overlook, she was just incredibly caring, patient, informed and so helpful. Also, she's so cool and fun and such a great person, never made us feel any pressure and was always so honest and kind. We have zero recommendations for improvement and think she's a wonderful Realtor and will 1000% recommend her to any of our friends in the future that may be looking to buy. We also worked with Brooke at Guild Mortgage, and their teamwork was so great too. It made us feel like we were well informed and that our best interests were considered by all parties." - Morgan D.

★★★★★
"AMAZING! This is my third move from out-of-state, and Allie was by far the best Realtor I've worked with! At our first meeting, she said she was going to make the process as stress-free as possible. I appreciated the sentiment, but I thought, 'yeah, right!' She was right. She helped me understand Texas' buying process, gave me an excellent lesson on Austin neighborhoods, and the real estate market in the area. I felt very knowledgeable and well informed going into it and knew that Allie had all the bases covered. She also took the time to get to know me, my needs, and lifestyle so that she could find the best home for me. The recommendations that she made were spot on! At one point I said, "I know this is not what I said I wanted, but this is PERFECT!' It's like she has psychic abilities when it comes to real estate. Once I was under contract, Allie kept in regular contact with me and was sure that I knew what was coming at each phase of the process. While moving is something I am not keen to do anytime soon, when I do need a new home, I will 100% be calling Allie!" - Briley R.

"Allie is professional, super responsive, and incredibly knowledgeable about a very dynamic market. I agree with another posting here, make sure to get in touch with her before there's a waitlist. She took us from our initial "We have no idea what a house even is" coffee meeting to "We're closing today!" and I'm so glad it was her leading us every step of the way. There were no stupid questions with her, and she was super patient with us the whole time. 10/10 would recommend. I'm currently sitting in a house I love!" - Rene C.

"Allie guided me through my first ever home-buying experience, and she was absolutely fantastic. Allie was extremely organized and patient and answered all of my questions with total clarity and candidness. Allie's first move wasn't to just start showing me listings. Instead, she sat me down, asked me questions about what I wanted, she listened, and then she delivered. It was an absolute pleasure working with Allie and look forward to working with her again in the future." - Dina A.

"Last year, my husband suggested we speak with a realtor to set up a game plan for future homeownership. We were so fortunate that the realtor he had in mind was Allie.
Allie met with us for the initial coffee meeting to lay out a groundwork for what we could do/afford and what the home buying process looks like, and all of a sudden, we found ourselves closing on our first home. Despite it feeling like a whirlwind (we didn't think we even could buy a house), Allie was with us every step of the way. She was patiently guiding us through what could have easily been a very overwhelming process and answering every email or question we had, no matter how silly we felt about asking. I would highly recommend working with Allie! We certainly would again in a heartbeat!" - Andrea S.

"We loved working with Allie! She helped us with the purchase of our first home and did a fantastic job walking us through each step of the process. She's responsive, a strong advocate for her clients, and very fun to work with!" - Lance P.

"My partner and I worked with Allie to find our first home in Austin. We've both lived in the city for over a decade and decided it was time to purchase our first home. Before we were ready to take the plunge into the home search, Allie met with us and explained the process from beginning to end. When we were ready to start looking for our home, we had a location, budget, and timeframe in mind. All of these requirements were met with Allie's help by closing. I felt like Allie was an advocate for us with everyone we encountered on our home purchase journey. She was willing to work with the bank, title company, builder, other agents, inspectors, etc.; basically, any time we asked for her help, she would jump in. As this was our first time buying a house, we had a lot of questions and stress/anxiety, but Allie was able to help us work through the process and find the right place for us. I think Allie's best trait is that she is available, willing to help her clients, and can apply the appropriate pressure throughout the process. The fact that I still feel comfortable reaching out to Allie for help now, months after the purchase, is a testament to the kind of support she provides to her clients. If you're looking for an attentive, patient, and hardworking realtor that will advocate for your best interests, Allie will get the job done!" - Grant B.

"Ms. Martinez was an absolute pleasure to work with and truly made the process as comfortable as possible. This was my second time purchasing a home, and it was definitely the best experience! Allie's local knowledge, accessibility and ability to represent the best interest of her client is why we will be life long customers of hers. I would give six stars if I could!" - Matt F.

★★★★★
"Allie literally helped us close on a house the same week she gave birth! True story, we found our dream home right before she went into labor and we still had a seamless transaction, talk about super mom! As a first-time buyer, Allie helped us understand the market, set expectations, and guide us through the transaction. She's extremely knowledgable on the market and has a work ethic like none other. Highly recommend!" - Adi P.

"Allie is the best Realtor I’ve ever worked with. Based on previous experiences selling property, I thought a selling agent’s sole purpose was scheduling showings and contacting you with an offer. Allie totally set me straight and showed me what a selling agent is supposed to be; a partner and strategic advisor! From day 1, Allie had a plan, and she saw it through. I firmly believe I couldn’t have sold my house as quickly or for as much, if it wasn’t for all the effort, Allie put in. Allie is professional, knowledgeable, and a great negotiator. I have never felt more confident working with a realtor, and I couldn’t recommend her more highly. I wish she were licensed in every state! " - Jovana K.

"Allie blew away all my expectations on my first home buying experience. Her deep knowledge of the Austin real estate market, coupled with her ability to break down the process for a first-time buyer, was amazing and really made the process delightful. I had A LOT of questions, and I think sometimes I asked the same question 2 or 3 times, and Allie was patient and so so so helpful in answering and making sure I truly understood what was important and what I needed to focus on. Additionally, Allie was great in helping me wrap my head around what property was going to be best for me. With Allie, it felt more like a friend helping me vs. a business transaction, and that's exactly what I was looking for. Finally, as an out of state buyer, Allie went above and beyond in helping me being my trusted eyes and ears on the ground. I can't say enough about how great she was, will definitely use Allie again!" - Kevin M.

"We absolutely loved working with Allie! From our first meeting through closing day, she was thorough, communicative, and friendly. Allie's professionalism and industry experience made our buying process feel effortless; I can't imagine having to go through it without her. If you have an opportunity to work with Allie: take it. You'll be glad you did. Thanks for everything, Allie!" - Adam R.

"Holy crap, she's good. If you're looking for a Realtor, get in touch with Allie Martinez now before there's a waitlist!
Allie has such a keen understanding of the Austin-metro housing market that my house was under contract (the first step of being "sold") three days after the listing went live. Three days! She got to work from the moment I met her; promoting my house to other realtors, carefully studying the area and comparable homes on the market, hyping up the house as "coming soon" to brokers and the public, and giving me a solid timeline to pack up and prep for the photographer she arranged.
She priced my house so perfectly that the offers I received turned into a bidding war less than 48 hours after the house went on the market. Allie then combed over the offers for me, finding tiny things that some potential buyers had left out or tried to sneak around. We avoided a few potentially terrible situations thanks to her attention to detail. When working with her, you can tell she has done her homework on contracts and housing regulations!
In addition to being a top-notch Realtor, Allie is such a joy to be around. She was compassionate and understanding of my situation, giving me helpful suggestions, but always leaving the final decisions up to me, never acting pushy or bossy. Super quick to respond to texts or emails, great communication.
If you are in the market for a house, whether to buy or sell, you won't find a better Realtor than Allie Martinez. I was a little terrified to sell my house, and she managed to make the whole process seem like a perfectly manicured walk in the park. Job well done, Allie, it was a pleasure working with you!" - Annalise J.

"We just finished going through the home buying process for the first time, and Allie was EXTREMELY helpful! She was able to understand our taste and helped to find us the perfect home! We asked millions of questions, and she was able to answer all of them. Her knowledge and negotiation skills helped to take almost all of the stress out of buying our first home. We are very thankful to have worked with her. We felt very comfortable with Allie and would highly recommend her!" - Sarah D.

"Since this was my first time buying a place, I really didn't know what I was doing (besides my experience in watching HGTV). Allie really helped us (my boyfriend and I) understand the Austin market, what was realistic, and point out that we needed to nail down the top things we cared about and then move forward from there. She found us great spots to look at (literally, the first place she found for us was the place we bought) and went out of her way to pick us up to take us to the different places. Not only did Allie seem like she knew the market and city, but she was easy to talk to and was always really, really friendly. Allie found us the perfect spot, and we are in love with where we live. She helped us negotiate, and she fought for us during the process. You can tell Allie's passionate about her job and her clients, which made me excited about the scary world that is looking for a new place. Since I'm pretty new to Austin, she also told me about hidden gems of restaurants/ food trucks throughout the city. If or when I have a friend looking for a new place, want to sell their old place, or I want to move, I will always recommend/use Allie." - Ellen N.

"Allie helped us find this perfect home and supported us throughout the hunt and purchasing process. We couldn't have asked for a better experience in buying our new home in East Austin and selling the condo we'd outgrown. I recommend to first-timers and repeat home buyers; Allie offers thoughtful details to elevate the experience." - Valerie C.
