"I worked with Rhianon Cote and purchased my first home at 53 yo!! I love her. Buying a home could have been a very stressful experience; however, mine was nothing but exciting and positive. Rhianon is very knowledgeable, so she gave me insight and led the way. It was such a smooth and easy process. I have lived in my new home for only a week, but I can not thank Rhianon enough for listening to my needs and then helping me find the perfect home. So impressed with her. Thank you, Rhianon!!"

"Rhianon was the best real estate we could have hope to have. The positive energy in such a down turned market was a breath of fresh air. She helped us to stage our home perfectly. Walked us through the process the entire way so we were completely prepared for a super quick close. We had the funds in our bank within a few hours. Best of all she took the time to meet us for lunch a day before closing. She’s been the best realtor we have used in 20+ years!"

"We were first time homebuyers and had about 5% knowledge about the home buying process. The process seemed so intimidating but our realtor, Rhianon Cote, made the process so smooth and harmonious for us. She was SO patient with our 101 questions about anything & everything. Never pressured us, always straight forward and really helped calm our nerves about buying a home. We are so thankful for her and glad we found our forever realtor!"

★★★★★
"Rhianon was extremely helpful and patient while I was looking for my fit. She also kept me from moving away from what I said I wanted by keeping my initial stated goal in mind and reminding me of what I wanted. She was also very knowledgeable in the areas that I was looking in and was able to find some houses in other potential areas that I initially would not have thought of. I could not have been happier with Rhianon assistance. "

★★★★★
"Amazing realtor! Rhianon helped me purchase my first home and was so helpful in helping me understand everything I needed to know. Austin is a tough market and it wasn't easy finding a place with my budget. She worked hard and supported me through every inch of the process. Her positive, supportive attitude gave me hope, and I landed a perfect home for my daughter and me in Round Rock. She even helped me with questions and reminded me of things that needed to be done, such as homesteading after the purchase was completed. Her kindness is over the top, and I highly recommended her."
- Amanda M.
★★★★★
"We are so thankful for Rhianon’s help in finding the best location and builder. We relocated back to Texas earlier this year and Rhianon drove around the properties to show us the homes and area they were in. She guided us along the building process way. We are finally settling into our new home and so blessed to have had her help. We enjoyed working with her and will refer her to anyone that is looking for a realtor in the Austin area. "
- Rebecca O.
★★★★★
"Rhianon was absolutely amazing in not only convincing but proving how attentive and important Harrison and I were in our buying process. We somehow felt like we were the only and most important clients on Rhianon’s radar since we had our first call to discuss what we were looking for in a home. She is very personable and asked us the right questions that helped us narrow down what our dream home would look like from all aspects. I won’t go into too much detail on our past experience with other agents outside of Compass, but we never felt like we were a priority. Then we found Rhianon and her team! Rhianon made us feel like we had the support we needed in this hot hot hot market. Rhianon was quick at answering our texts, calls, emails, you name it! Her biggest strength in our eyes was her communication style - we never felt like we were out of the loop, which was important to us as first-time home buyers. She and her team walked us through every step of the way, from touring to closing. We are forever thankful for her support in finding our dream home!"

★★★★★
"Rhiannon has helped us both purchase and sell. She's invested in helping people get what they need. She went above and beyond booking services for us in order to get the house ready for sell. She helped us stay on track while we dealt with a death in the family. I would recommend her services."
- Elizabeth W.
★★★★★
"Rhianon has been simply amazing. We moved from CA and had never visited Austin, TX, before. Rhianon took the time to understand our needs and guided us on areas to look into. She made sure we had a great virtual tour experience. She even made live video tours for houses we requested viewing for. All our requests were addressed in a timely manner by her.
She helped in recommending lender agents, agencies to install new carpet within budget, and also home cleaning services. In our physical absence, she managed everything perfectly. She also made sure that these agencies provided services that met our expectations by consistent follow-ups.
All in all, Rhianon is very friendly, helpful and certainly very good at what she does!! We highly recommend her. "
- Simi D.
★★★★★
"I can say nothing but great things about realtor Rhianon Cote and the team over at Compass. As an administrator of a probated estate, I had a difficult situation that required a lot of patience and professionalism, and that is exactly what I got with Rhianon. She went above and beyond anything a realtor would be expected to do, including dealing with a difficult tenant, arranging cleaning crews and junk removal, even spending her own personal time to come to help clean and stage the house before listing. If you are trying to sell a piece of property that is part of a probate proceeding for a deceased loved one, or if you are just trying to sell your house, I would strongly recommend you work Rhianon Cote and Compass!"
- Brenda W.
★★★★★
"Loved working with Rhianon. She really listened to what our needs were. She was always available to questions throughout the process. There was no high pressure which we appreciated. I would definitely refer her to others. Thanks for all your support Rhiannon. She even came to south Austin for our car closing."
- Don + Dorothy A.
★★★★★
"Rhianon is the absolute BEST. She made THE DIFFERENCE in the process of buying my first home. I wasn't sure about where to begin, and she made the experience easy and FUN. Best of all, I have my dream home. Rhianon is extraordinarily intuitive, highly skilled in her field, has connections for any need that could arise, and on top of her game! If you are seeking someone you can trust to partner with you on buying or selling a home, Rhianon has my highest recommendation."
- Elizabeth L.

★★★★★
"I was appointed executor of my sister’s Texas estate, and I live out-of-state. When interviewing three Realtors, my highest requirement for a Realtor was the ability to be my “boots on the ground.” Well, Rhianon Cote was that Realtor. As with any real estate transaction, there are twists and turns, and Rhianon was on top of things day and night, offering solutions to keep the process on track. A HUGE thank you to Rhianon Cote for being my “boots on the ground” and getting the job done! Thanks for the opportunity to properly thank Rhianon."
- Tish S.

"Rhianon is and was simply perfect. In my case, it was my first time looking for a house. She was knowledgeable, kind, and very responsive to all my needs. I ended up going with a rental home (testing the waters a bit), but once I am ready to buy, I 100% will be using Rhianon again!"

- Sabrina B.
★★★★★
"I just moved to Austin a few months ago and was introduced to Rhianon through a friend. She has been helping me prepare for my future home purchase. I am currently renting while I get a better feel for Austin and the neighborhoods here.

I loved every minute of working with her!"

"Rhianon was awesome! She was super helpful, and I felt she really looked out for us during our buying process. We connected with her instantly. We love her!"
- Steve A.
★★★★★
"Rhianon Cote was great to work with on the buyer's side of the transaction. She kept me informed on all parts of the contract. Since I am a real estate agent in Colorado and Texas contracts are different, we had a good time comparing the differences in each of the contracts. She was fun to work with and professional as well. Rhianon answered all my questions and contacted whatever parties were involved in getting the answers to my questions. If I asked for a form or documentation I needed, she promptly provided it. Rhianon is great to work with, and if anyone is moving to Texas, I recommend her for your real estate needs."
- Elisabeth L.
★★★★★
"Rhianon couldn't have made buying our first home easier or more enjoyable. She was an amazing resource for finding exactly what we needed. Even though I did my own searches for homes, her results were always the best. She was knowledgeable, responsive, caring, tenacious, and aggressively protective of us when it came to rooting out bad deals. She was always there and ready for all of our questions and concerns. We felt like her best friends that could come to her with anything. She made sure that every detail was perfect and found us a perfect home in no time at all. After closing, we couldn't be happier with our home, neighborhood, and the whole experience, and it wouldn't have happened without her. I can't recommend her highly enough. She's an amazing Agent, and we were very lucky to have found her."

" We just absolutely cannot say enough about Rhianon. Besides being incredibly helpful and so very patient, she was incredibly responsive and really helped us figure out things on the fly. This was a really fast turnaround, from buying and selling a house all simultaneously, and she really worked hard to make it happen in short. I have already recommended her to two other people. We will definitely use her in the future.

"I am lost for words, but in a good way. I had to leave my apartment quickly. So, this made it crunch time buying a house. Rhianon seem like an earthly angel that was sent my way to buy a house. I had no clue of what I was doing. She stepped in learning my work schedule and my days off. We traveled around Austin looking for a prefect home for my family and I. Our search included laugher while snacking. I could not ask for a better realtor. She is so sweet and honest. She is so willing to go above and beyond to ensure you have found the perfect HOME, which I did! Thank you Rhianon Peterson having patient and being you. WE LOVE OUR NEW HOME.
